Controversial Islamic scholar, Sheikh Gumi has said that Nigerians deserve great leaders to move the nation forward.
According to him, such leaders are those who prioritize the welfare of citizens over personal wealth accumulation. The cleric made these remarks during an award presentation organized by the Sultan Bello Primary School Old Pupils Association (SUBOPA) in honor of two of their members, Major General Abdulmalik Jibrin (Rtd) and Brigadier General Abdulkadir Gumi (Rtd), who recently received government appointments.
Major General Abdulmalik Jibrin was appointed Secretary of the Civil Defence, Fire Service, and Immigration Board (CDCFIB) by the Federal Government, while Brigadier General Abdulkadir Gumi (Rtd) was named Chairman of the Security Trust Fund Board of Zamfara State.
Gumi described Major General Jibrin as a hardworking, disciplined, and dedicated army officer during his service, emphasizing that Nigeria needs individuals like him in leadership positions due to his commitment and patriotism.
“This is because Nigeria is greatly in search of great leaders to lead this country. We need well-trained and well-mannered people who genuinely want to assist others, not just themselves. People with good qualities and character should be the ones pushed into leadership positions in this country.
“Not the kind of leaders we have in this part of the country who only think of themselves and their families,” he said.
He also expressed concern over the impact of insecurity in states like Zamfara, stating that it has significantly affected education and stability in some communities.
