Gumi Claims Christian Genocide in Nigeria Politically Motivated

Controversial Islamic cleric Gumi alleges Christian genocide in Nigeria is politically motivated, responding to the US decision to reclassify Nigeria as a country of particular concern for religious freedom violations. Gumi accused unpatriotic clerics of collaborating with foreign powers to tarnish Nigeria's image.

He dismissed the US move as hypocritical meddling, arguing that Nigeria faces its own challenges. Gumi described the ongoing campaign against Nigeria as a war on Christians, emphasizing that the real crisis is criminality, not religion.
