Prominent Islamic cleric, Dr. Ahmad Abubakar Mahmud Gumi, has expressed concern over what he described as the alleged presence of Israel’s intelligence agency, Mossad, in Nigeria.
In a statement released on his social media page, Gumi warned that such developments could lead to the “clandestine murder of Muslim leaders in Nigeria”.
He recalled the death of former military Head of State, General Sani Abacha, alleging that the late ruler was poisoned on the night he hosted Palestinian leader, Yasir Arafat, in Abuja.

“How can this genocidal apartheid government have a footing in Nigeria?” Gumi asked, insisting that President Bola Tinubu was “ill-advised” on the matter.
The cleric further warned that any form of collaboration with the Israeli agency “will cost him (Tinubu) a lot more than he may gain.”
