Muslims under the aegis of Concerned Muslim Professionals want Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Sa’ad Abubakar III, to lead the dialogue with members of the dreaded terrorist sect, Boko Haram.


The concerned muslims wants Sultan to use his position as the President-General of the Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs, to dialogue with Boko Haram in order to put an end to the deadly attacks by the sects as there’s been no efforts by the Muslim leadership in the country to put an end to the crisis, according to Punch.


The President of the organization, Alhaji Mohammed Saidu, in the letter to the Sultan, said the activities of Boko Haram were regrettable and that they constituted an embarrassment to the Islamic religion.


Part of the letter read: “If the family of billionaire Umar Mutallab could have a terrorist in its midst, then such a disease could be everywhere; it can only take the effort of the Sultan and the other Muslim leaders to mobilise compliance by parents and relatives, which is part of the actions being demanded by well-meaning Nigerians."
