USA: an imam predicts a Muslim will be elected to the White House
The renowned Nigerian imam Sheikh Ahmad Gumi predicted that a Muslim will one day lead the United States. This prediction comes after the historic election of Zohran Mamdani, New York’s first Muslim mayor.
SUMMARY
Nigerian imam Sheikh Ahmad Gumi, an influential figure on Nigeria’s religious and political scene, has once again sparked controversy on social media. In a Facebook post that went viral, the cleric congratulated Zohran Mamdani, newly elected mayor of New York, while prophesying that one day a Muslim will attain the U.S. presidency.
“Mamdani made it! Washington’s intensive care units should brace for heart attacks! Muslims will go to the White House,” wrote Sheikh Gum. A message that quickly set the internet alight.
A divisive prophecy?
Zohran Mamdani, 34, and a member of the Democratic Party, won a historic victory over Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa. This young politician, of Ugandan and Indo-Muslim background, thus becomes the first Muslim mayor of New York City. His victory is a symbol of a new era of inclusion and diversity in American politics.
For Sheikh Gumi, this victory is only the prelude to a global upheaval. “The time will come when the United States will see a Muslim president,” he asserted. While some praise his faith in a more open America, others denounce a provocative statement that could fuel religious tensions.
