Activist lawyer, Deji Adeyanju, has taken a swipe at controversial cleric, Ahmad Gumi, over his reaction to the death of Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei.
Adeyanju claimed Gumi, whom he labelled a terrorist sympathizer, was in mourning.
Recall that Khamenei, 86, died on Saturday, the 28th of February, 2026, during coordinated air raids reportedly executed by Israel and the United States.
The bombardment formed part of a major military strike within Tehran.
In his reaction, Gumi described the late Iranian leader as “a lucky soul” who “died in jihad.”
He stated that Khamenei died “in jihad against killers of innocent children and women in Gaza and elsewhere.”
According to him, Khamenei’s blood “will fuel the change in the ummah,” adding that the Iranian leader stood for justice and did not retreat into bunkers.

However, Adeyanju, on Sunday, the 1st of March, 2026, wrote on X: “Gumi and other terrorist sympathizers in Nigeria are crying, the demon of Iran is gone.
“Iran makes too much noise for such a weak and defenseless country. Why is their airspace so weak like this? US announced it will attack Iran and still they couldn’t stop all these explosions.
“Why was it so easy for US and Israel to kill the demon of Iran? And why do Israel and US have easy access to Iranian airspace to be attacking them at will after all the noise Iran makes all the time?”
