Sheik Ahmad Gumi, respected Islamic Cleric, has embarked on another peace seeking trip to the forest to meet with bandits.

He had subsequently asked the government to pardon the armed men for peace to reign.

Sources told Daily Trust that Gumi met with the armed men between Tegina in Niger State and Birnin Gwari in Kaduna State.

The development comes two days after armed men abducted the staff and students of Government Science College, Kagara, Niger State.

Below are pictures of the cleric during his peace seeking mission.
