terrorizing villages and communities in the Northern part of Nigeria when he visited the suspected terrorists in their camps inside forests on the ground of having peace talk with the armed groups, Sheikh Ahmad Abubakar Mahmud Gumi has described as a terrorist act the United States, US military action ordered by President Donald Trump that attacked and killed yet to be ascertained total numbers of ISIS affiliated Lakurawa terrorists in Sokoto State on Christmas Day, this, the Islamic Cleric called on the people in the villages affected by the US missiles' strikes on Thursday night to post on social media platforms evidences of damages caused by the US military action,   according to Gumi, it is inline with the teaches of Islam for terrorists to be killed, but, the killing must be done by people with a clean and holy hands, and "not by another terrorist whose hands are stained with the blood of hundreds of thousands of innocent children, women, and men just recently", stressing that, the US involvement in the fight against terrorism in Nigeria will make the country becomes an enemy of its neighbours, a theatre of war, because the involvement will attract the real anti-US Forces into the West Africa country, and in a manner that looked like mockery, Sheikh Gumi said "dropping a few bombs here and there cannot tackle the menace of terror; they need serious military on the ground, which, if we are serious, we have enough men to do that", in contrary to Gumi's assertions, the Nigeria Government, through the office of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Yusuf Tuggar said it was President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Thursday that gave the US the approval to carry out the strikes against the terrorists, but the government statement apparently did not go down well with Omoyele Sowore, a human rights activist and the founder of SaharaReporters news media, who insisted that "it is evident that the strikes were carried out without the genuine authority or informed consent of the weaklings masquerading as government under Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu", and in a swift reaction to Omoyele Sowore, one of the recently nominated and confirmed Ambassador-Designate, Reno Omokri said "I am afraid I will have to disagree with Mr Omoyele Sowore, and others like him, who are misinforming the Nigerian public that the recent actions against terrorists are proof that Nigeria lacks sovereignty, Such views are indicative of a lack of awareness of international relations, It is also wrong for Mr Sowore to call our government and military weak". #OsazuwaAkonedoUnsafe Nigeria;
