Let him remind them that no man, no man should fight for a god. And also advice northern governors to start free compulsory education, to enlighten them more.

Re: John Kerry Arrives Sokoto State by kgr8mike(m): 11:14am On Aug 23, 2016
The US secretary of state is here to talk to us about religious tolerance, community peace and all that and probably negotiate arms deals with the president to deliver on campaign promises.

As a nation just imagine the things we are dealing with; things that are forming our priorities.

When will a US secretary of state come to Nigeria to discuss technology transfer and capacity building? When will a US secretary of state come to Nigeria with a view to helping us develop and not with a view of making us their permanent dumping ground for their outdated weapons.

Nigeria, we hail thee.

Sokoto is an Ancient Caliphate.

You're quite right smiley

Sokoto caliphate is one with a rich history dating back to 1809 and famous for its literature and unique brightly colored and patterned architecture.

Ironically, they are also famed for their dye clothing industry dating back to the 19th century (Renee) so it's a civilization with a rich history of commerce and industry.

Developed in the context of multiple, independent Hausa kingdoms, at its height the Caliphate linked over 30 different emirates and over 10 million people in the most powerful state in its region and one of the most significant empires in Africa in the nineteenth century.

welcome
For that his speech to be fruitful, all Imams and Islamic stakeholders should be present. They hold the key to religious violence in the North, every other action is just sugar-coating a bitterpill.

Hey, terrorism is the main focus that's why he's at that region. Unfortunately, a lot of people from the northernnorthern region still sympathize with the terrorists in the name of religion. Whatever happened to morality embarassed
