Former United States lawmaker, Mike Arnold, has said the Terrorists from around the world are flooding into Nigeria to launch the final global jihad prophesied by Islamic prophet Muhammad.

In a piece on Facebook, Arnold said 1.9 billion Muslims believe, at the end of days, a descendant of Muhammad called the Mahdi — the Islamic world's prophesied jihad messiah — will rise, defeat the Christian armies, and conquer the whole earth for Islam.

"The Sokoto Caliphate, founded 222 years ago in northern NIGERIA by a blood descendant of Muhammad, was built explicitly to be the Mahdi's launchpad. A blood descendant of Muhammad still sits on that throne today," he said.

According to him, Muslims around the world believe Nigeria today is the only place that meets the classical Sunni requirements for the caliphate that will host the Mahdi and launch the final jihad to conquer the world.

"They control the Nigerian government. The schools. The military. And they are determined to bring the entire population under submission to full Sharia law — using the same tactics for two centuries: massacre, wholesale rape, destruction, kidnapping, slavery, and displacement.

"Since the launch of this jihad, as many as SIX MILLION NIGERIANS HAVE BEEN KILLED. The genocide rages on.
If we don't stop it there, we'll be fighting it in our own backyard," he said.
