Controversial Islamic cleric, Sheihk Ahmad Abubakar Gumi, has sad that Nigeria needs the person of Aare Dele Momodu at this time in its history.
The cleric made the statement via a personal letter to the widely traveled presidential aspirant after going through the Saturday, March 5, 2022 edition of the Pendulum, titled MY ENCOUNTER WITH SHEIKH GUMI IN KADUNA, written by the celebrated journalist, who doubles as the Chairman/CEO, Ovation Media Group.
“The pen is mightier than the sword”
You’re a wonderful man, Nigeria needs you!” The cleric had said.
Recall that during the week, Momodu paid a courtesy visit to religious leader in his Kaduna home, where he intimated him of his Intention to run for the presidency of Nigeria in 2023.
Aare is about now traversing the length and breadth of the country soliciting support for the lofty ideal.
So far, he has visited a host of influential Nigerians, who have wholeheartedly pledged their supports for his cause.
Experienced and widely traveled, Momodu is not new to politics and presidential race, as he was in the forefront of the contest in 2011, when he contested on the platform of the National Conscience Party (NCP).
Presently, the aspirant remains the only fresh entrant with intellectually based acumen to fix the many ills bedeviling the Nigerian nation today.
