In response, Sheikh Gumi denied the allegations and emphasized his commitment to peace and dialogue in Nigeria, particularly in the Northern region. The lawsuit, filed under the Kaduna State Penal Code Law, seeks to prevent the spread of misinformation and protect Sheikh Gumi's reputation as a prominent peace advocate in the country.
