Controversial Islamic scholar, Sheikh Ahmad Gumi, has warned that foreign involvement may not be ruled out in recent terror attacks targeting worshippers in Nigeria. In a post made on X on Wednesday, Gumi recalled past incidents which, he said, point to the possibility of clandestine foreign operations in the country. According to Gumi, the former envoy has continued to decline comments on the allegation, describing the incident as “just another possibility” that supports his claims. Gumi claimed that the ultimate targets of such actions are Nigeria’s sovereignty and natural wealth, adding that similar tactics are now being directed at Venezuela. Nigeria being a country of concern by them, puts it on their radar for clandestine operations to prove the need for intervention.
