Kaduna-based Islamic scholar Abubakar Gumi has alleged that the Nigerian government is aware of the identities and locations of terrorists operating across the country.
Gumi said this during a recent interview with newsmen,on Tuesday, while reacting to accusations that he personally knows and regularly interacts with terrorists and bandits responsible for insecurity in parts of Nigeria.
He says that some of the engagements have involved visits to traditional rulers as well as trips into forests believed to be hideouts for bandits.
Gumi further stated that his contacts with the armed groups are not conducted alone, insisting that security agencies are involved in the process.
