Sheikh Gumi told Daily Post in an interview that bandits are now independent and not being influenced or sponsored by anyone.
He said: “That was a small metamorphosis in the process, but now the bulk of the money they collect is used to buy weapons. Bandits are independent now, and nobody influences them.

He also dismissed insinuations that Nigeria security issues is so bad that the country would be paralyzed.
“There is a high state of insecurity, but it has not reached the state where it will paralyze Nigeria. We still travel around despite more frequent and sporadic attacks.

“Government should do the right thing, and honestly speaking, Nigerians have to swallow these bitter pills which is getting these people on a table and set in place a machinery to rehabilitate them,” Gumi added.
