Gumi came under intense criticism last week after advocating for amnesty for the criminals carrying out kidnappings and banditry in the different parts of Northern Nigeria.
In a recent interview with BBC Hausa, Gumi indicted the Nigerian military in the violence crimes in the region. He said the bandits he met were willing to lay down their arms but that the military top brass were deliberately escalating the violence.
He said; “Everyone has witnessed it that we negotiated with these people and they promised to drop their weapons and stop these activities, and I even promised to meet the president about the matter. But why will the army bomb their place?”
But the military denied his claims. His visit to Tagina forest came after kidnappers abducted about 42 persons, including students, staff and their families Fromm the Government Science College Kagara in Niger State on Wednesday.
Multiple reports said gunmen started attacked the school around 2:00 am on Wednesday, beginning with sporadic gunshots.
A students was killed during the attack. The State Governor Abubakar Sani Bello while reacting to the incident vowed never to negotiate with bandits.
Bello stated that Niger was experiencing infiltration of criminals from neighbouring Benin Republic, adding: “The bandits are Fulani that has no one to control them, even their parents.”
Reiterating that he would not have anything to do with hoodlums who have never kept to terms of the agreement, the governor recalled that he once reluctantly negotiated with bandits that never yielded any positive result.
“To be honest, even when the process of negotiation was being advised, I agreed to it. I have attended one meeting where the bandits were there and I cannot imagine myself as a governor and chief security officer of a state sitting down and negotiating with them,” Bello said.
The Nigeria Senate’s have also called on President Muhammadu Buhari to declare a state of emergency on the menace of insecurity bedeviling the country. They insisted that the government must suspend normal constitutional procedures in order to regain control of the situation.
