Fact Check: Has Tinubu Gone to Turkey to Seek Help on Gumi’s Advice? Here’s the Truth


Social media has been awash with claims that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu secretly traveled to Turkey to seek security assistance following advice from Islamic cleric Sheikh Ahmad Gumi.

But how accurate is this report?

Daily Gist & Guide separates fact from rumor and explains what is really happening behind the scenes.

Where the Claim Came From

The claim gained traction after Sheikh Ahmad Gumi publicly urged the Nigerian government to:

Reduce military cooperation with the United States

Seek help from countries like Turkey, China, and Pakistan, which he described as more “neutral”

Soon after, reports emerged that Nigeria had approached Turkey for security assistance, leading many online users to assume that President Tinubu personally traveled to Turkey on Gumi’s advice.

What Is Confirmed

President Tinubu has confirmed that Nigeria has approached Turkey for assistance in tackling insecurity, including terrorism and banditry.

Speaking during a meeting with religious leaders, Tinubu stated that his administration is engaging multiple international partners as part of a broader strategy to address Nigeria’s worsening security challenges.

This move reflects:

Growing international security cooperation

Nigeria’s search for advanced military and intelligence support

While Gumi did recommend Turkey publicly, his statements are personal opinions, not official government policy.

Did Tinubu Follow Gumi’s Advice?

At this point:

There is no official link between Gumi’s comments and Tinubu’s decision

Governments routinely engage multiple countries on security matters

Seeking Turkey’s assistance does not automatically validate or adopt Gumi’s position

Security experts note that Nigeria has long worked with various international partners, and Turkey’s involvement fits into that existing pattern.

The rumor highlights:

Public anxiety over insecurity

Deep interest in Nigeria’s foreign alliances

How quickly misinformation spreads on social media

Experts warn that false reports about presidential movements or foreign policy decisions can fuel unnecessary tension and confusion.
