Islamic scholar Sheikh Ahmad Gumi has reacted to the recent U.S. sanctions against some Nigerians, saying he is not shocked by the move. According to Gumi, the reaction from foreign governments only reflects issues that have been ignored for too long.

Gumi explained that Nigeria must pay attention to its internal problems instead of waiting for outside nations to take action. He stressed that leaders should face reality and address security challenges seriously.

Meanwhile, 12 northern governors who were mentioned in conversations about the sanctions have yet to make any public comments. Their silence has raised questions among Nigerians, with many wondering whether they will eventually respond or remain quiet on the matter.

The development has triggered strong reactions across the country, with many calling for transparency and accountability from government officials. For now, citizens are watching closely to see how the situation unfolds.
