Tony Ojeshina, Chief Imams of Oke-Ona, Gbagura, Owu and Mr. Vitalis Ortese.<\/p>\n<p>Gumi briefed Obasanjo on the measures and steps he had taken and spearheaded to stem the tide of insecurity and menace of banditry, kidnapping and ransom payment in many parts of the North.<\/p>\n<p>The Islamic scholar, at the meeting, clarified some statements credited to him and insisted his intentions were genuine.<\/p>\n<p>Obasanjo commended Sheikh Gumi for his initiative and encouraged him not to relent in his efforts, while Gumi thanked him for his past services emphasising the special unifying efforts.<\/p>\n<p>A statement on Sunday by Obasanjo\u2019s spokesman, Kehinde Akinyemi, made public the details of the meeting.<\/p>\n<p>The participants agreed that the menace of banditry, kidnapping, other crimes and atrocities leading to general insecurity is a nationwide phenomenon.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe acknowledge that people from different parts of the country and outside the country are involved although some people are more predominantly involved than others.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe must not advertently or inadvertently, in words, action or inaction encourage or support criminality. We identified the crisis as micro ethnic conflict between the Fulani and many host communities mainly in the North West.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe identified the remote causes as educational and economic disparities, and the negative use of religion and ethnicity by unscrupulous politicians.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSolutions must be seen and provided on short, medium-, and long-term bases and must be composed of stick and carrot for the offender and the vulnerable.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNigerians should desist from blame game; desist from ethnicizing crimes; desist from religionizing crimes; desisting from regionalising crimes; respect one another individually, community-wise, locally, ethnically, religiously and socially;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShow tolerance and accommodation where necessary; condemn criminal acts no matter where it is committed and by whom it is committed in Nigeria; encourage more of carrot solution as may be found necessary; share information at all levels; reject criminality as a way of life for any individual or group in our nation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSince the end of the civil war, the military is the strongest and most potent instrument and symbol of national unity that we have and we must keep them so.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cState governments must have adequate means of providing security for their people and as chief executives and chief security officers of their states, they must have the means at their disposal to ensure security for all within their states.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFederal government must be proactive and secure necessary and updated intelligence to deal with organised crimes and have common policy for the nation. It is not solving the problem when one state goes for negotiation and molly-cuddling of criminals and another one goes for shooting them. Nor should one state go for ransom payment and another one going against.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEducation is one main key to solve the problem in the long run but it must start now. The 14 million children that should be in school and are out of school must be put in school with local authorities, state governments and the federal government working together.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWean those who are ready to be weaned out of the bushes and crime, settle and rehabilitate them, give them skills, empower them and let them have employment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe hardened criminals must be hard hit with sticks. Unlawful carrying of arms should be very seriously punished. Federal government should take the issue up seriously within ECOWAS to work for a regional solution.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery community must be encouraged and empowered to stand firm and strong against criminals. There should be protection and reward covertly for whistleblowers against criminals living in the community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSpecial courts should be created to deal promptly with cases of banditry, kidnapping, ransom demanding and unlawful carrying of weapons.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former President Olusegun Obasanjo and Sheikh Abubakar Gumi met in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital on Sunday.
