Saidi Shittu, a self acclaimed Islamic cleric has debunked the claim by one Yahyah Gambari, that he was abducted by him and made him do so many things against his wish. Shittu in a video he posted few hours ago on Facebook said Yahyah was out to destroy his image because he has been settled with some amount of money worth five million naira.
The self acclaimed Islamic Scholar that criticizes other Muslims alfas and scholars for engaging in voodoo practice said, “I have never asked Yahyah Gambari to join me in the fight against some Islamic scholar who engaged in black magic practice. In fact, this young man used to attack me in his post on Facebook. When he joined me in the fight against some Alfas that were fooling people with shady practice, I welcomed him and I have never instructed him to insult or fight any Islamic cleric on my behalf.
“In actual sense, the fight he took up against those fooling people with Islam as scholars was a good one and I have never monitored any of his post because I have also been very busy with my life. Though, couple of times that I checked some of his posts and discovered some that weren’t okay, I had cautioned him.
“This allegation that I held him captive and was the brain behind all his post was a lie. It’s script given to him by some disgruntled Islamic clerics that have bought him over. I could remember after my program on Facebook last night, Yahyah Gambari called me and informed me that some clerics were after him. He claimed they wanted to harm him that I should come to his aid. I gave him me my words that nothing would happen to him because I have suffered same threat too. He added that those that were after him was looking for a way to turn him against me. He said they wanted him to expose me. Meanwhile I do not have any secret someone could expose, I have never engage myself in the use of black magic and I don’t do rituals or involve in alcoholic drink and I was wondering what secret I had that I was afraid Yahyah Gmabari might want to put to the public.
“Meanwhile, from the what we learnt, those he claimed were after him had promised to give him five million naira and relocate him to America if he could go public and tell lies against me. This was an information we got and seeing him on a video with those claims
Earlier, Yahyah Gambari did release a video some hours back where he claimed Saidi Shittu was the brain behind the controversy he has caused by accusing some Islamic clerics of practicing voodoo.
Yahaya in his words said he has now realized his mistakes having been tutored wrongly by Saidi Shittu to insult some known clerics that were accused by Shittu of practicing voodoo in the cause of their practice as a Muslim scholars.
"The only thing I have ever gotten from him was the data subscription he did for the program I put out on social media. He has never given me huge amount of money; not even N20,000 or ₦50,000, this man was just using me to cause disaffection amongst Muslims, oh dear mothers around save me from him so that I can be useful to my parents." Yahyah Gambari said.
