BOKOHARAM -borno Empire Vs Sokoto Caliphate by Honesty007(m): 3:09am On May 26, 2016
It may seem so starange but true for you to believe that Sokoto state is peaceful unlike Borno state.Historically, religiously, both states are sworn enemies.The sultan of sokoto doesn't meet eye to eye with the Emir of Borno.Boko haram started in Borno state initially from the cultural perspective historical view. Sokoto state houses the real muslims who are peaceful,but Boko haram that started in Borno was a New doctrine of Islam,a new ideology that never conforms with the teachings and tenets of Islam fully,but is over extreme.
So this two empires have been at War.We may look at it from the religious views only, but culturally it is inevitable.The borno empire wants to be dominant and be the epicentre of commerce,wealth and power.This explains the reasons why Boko haram is capturing communities and extending their territories into Sokoto.
The renewed attacks some days ago started when THE EMIRS WHO WERE SACKED FROM KANO RETURNED TO THEIR PALACES, I ASK YOU WHY?
IT IS BECAUSE OF THE WAR BETWEEN BORNO EMPIRE AND THE SOKOTO CALIPHATE.
THOUGH,both are Islam,one differs from the other just as the Sunni differs from The shites in the Islamic world.
It is one thing to understand the deep root of a problem but it is hard to uproot it if it was a rebellion.
A rebellious culture is hard to uproot.If you wantto be honest with me ,take a critical look at the whole Bokoharam issue.If Borno wins the war against the sokoto today,Fulani's would be wiped out and any descendants who are the New generations,who never experienced the wars.
In fact the whole arabic world is plagued with crisis as a result of Doctrinal differences,leadership tussles, inner conflicts, rebellions,and new ideologies.

History,has always repeated itself with the rise of New cultures sweeping through civilizations and eroding traditional beliefs transcending into a Modern world.
So Extremism is the keyword here.
We must know why the Bokoharam issue has become political,economical and Material.Why do these insurgents resurface ,better armed and sophisticated than before? Who is arming them.
Let us ask ourselves, What does President BUHARI BELIEVE IN, IS HE FROM SOKOTO OR HE LOVES THE BORNO EMPIRE WELL?
IF HE SUPPORTS THE BORNO CALIPHATE EXPANDING, THEN YOU SHOULD KNOW HE WOULD DEFINITELY SUPPORT BOKOHARAM
