Reacting to this statement, Omokri called on the muslim cleric to give reasons for his suggested approach in tackling banditry.
He wrote: “Dear Sheikh Gumi,
“Why should we give bandits amnesty? Is it because they are Fulani or Muslim? Tell us why. Gen @MBuhari has been killing your fellow Muslim Shiite. Why have you not called for amnesty for Shiites who dont kill, yet want it for bandits who kill?”
