Prominent Islamic cleric, Sheikh Ahmad Gumi has stated that the nation will regret it if minister of communications and digital economy is removed from office.<\/p>\n

Several Nigerians including pressure groups have requested for the sacking of Isa Pantami after\u00a0videos from the 2000s resurfaced wherein the minister was seen supporting Al-Qaeda and the Taliban.<\/p>\n

However, the communication minister, Pantami has recanted his past views on the terror groups<\/a><\/strong>, saying\u00a0his position at the time was based on his understanding as a teenager.<\/p>\n

Speaking on the development via an interview with Roots TV, Sheikh Gumi said\u00a0the allegations against the minister are unfounded and should be discarded.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou cannot Islamise the whole world. Jesus Christ came; he could not Christianise the whole world. Nobody can Islamise or Christianise Nigeria,\u201d Gumi said.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll his actions, one hundred percent, shows he is not a terrorist. Those who are terrorists are after his life. The minister should continue. His presence there is fighting the terrorist ideology.<\/p>\n

\u201cShow me one person he has killed. He has not killed anybody. He has not ordered the killing of anybody. Discard the fake news. The man is stabilising a government among a section of youths, which we want them to come and join in nation-building. They should not throw him away. Leave him. He is not a terrorist sympathiser.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd you people are fighting them. No. You should get more people like Pantami<\/a> and put them in power. It will stabilise. Don\u2019t remove him. You\u2019ll regret.\u201d<\/p>\n

Recall that the presidency has also defended Pantami, alleging that\u00a0information and communications technology (ICT) companies are the ones behind calls for the minister\u2019s removal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
