Islamic cleric Sheikh Ahmad Gumi has reacted to the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife by the United States President Donald Trump.
In a post on his Facebook page on Saturday, Gumi said “Supreme banditry doesn’t attack villages, they attack nations and kidnap leaders,” seemingly referring to President Trump.
Gumi has been a staunch critic of Trump, especially since his military intervention in Nigeria.
News reports that Trump had earlier on Saturday disclosed this in a post via his Truth Social media account on Saturday.
The development comes a few months after the US government doubled the reward for information leading to the arrest of Maduro to $50 million, citing his alleged role in international drug trafficking.
