1.Usman dan Fodio is the Founder of the Sokoto Caliphate..
1.Nnamdi Kanu is the founder of Ipob.
.................................................................................
2.Usman dan fodio was a religious teacher who became the leader of a revolution:
2Nnamdi kanu presently doubles as both a jewish religious teacher and a revolutionary..

................................................................................. 3. They both criticized the elites and while usman changed the political system in present-day northern Nigeria, Kanu is seriously clamouring for a complete dissolution of the British contraption called Nigeria..
.,.,................... .........................................................
4.they both opposed the ruling system.
After completing his studies, usman went back to Gobir and began to preach Islam to the people, who at that time mixed paganism with Islam. His popularity grew in Gobir and got to a stage where the then King of Gobir, Rimfa, saw Usman dan Fodio as a threat and attempted to assassinate him...

4.kanu came back to Nigeria and continued to preach biafra..
But, the Federal government in connivance with south eastern governors, saw the growing popularity of Nnamdi Kanu as a threat and attempted to assassinate him..leaving 28 members of his family and his dog for dead..
................................................................................5. The declaration of the holy war by Dan fodio spread across the Hausaland and many people volunteered to join his army.

5. The declaration of ESN has spread across Biafraland and tens of thousands of people have volunteered and have joined his army.
.................................................................................

Danfodio's Islamic religious empire included most of what is now northern Nigeria and parts of Niger as well as northern Cameroon. The holy war inspired a series of holy wars throughout West Africa at the time and Islam became the dominant faith among the people of West Africa.
In 1837, the Sokoto Caliphate, with an estimated population of over 20 million people, had become the most populous empire in West Africa.
Sheikh Usman dan Fodio died on April 20, 1817 in Sokoto.
