The Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Sa’ad Abubabar, has blamed the sectarian violence in the country on politicians.
According to him, some politicians were exploiting religious and ethnic differences to cause unrest in the country.
The traditional ruler observed that while sectarian crises could have religious undertone, religious differences could not be said to be the main reason for such violence.
He made the remark while delivering a lecture entitled ‘Traditional and Religious Institutions in Nigeria: Implication for National Security’ in Abuja on Friday.
He blamed such sectarian crisis on the nation’s political, ethnic, religious and ethnic diversities.
He said: “Unwholesome and divisive politics has tended to propagate hatred and ill-feeling and the demonization of entire religious and ethnic groups.”
The Sultan said that several sectarian crises which started as minor political difference later snowballed into major religious crisis in the country.
He also observed that that some citizens had exploited the prevailing aversion for Western education to command a large number of followers who were being used to wreak havoc on the society.
