However, that level of concern never came from Arab countries with whom millions of Borno people share similarity in religion and culture.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-6994\" src=\"https:\/\/newsreservoir.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_20210106_34107-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/newsreservoir.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_20210106_34107-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/newsreservoir.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_20210106_34107-630x420.jpg 630w, https:\/\/newsreservoir.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_20210106_34107.jpg 675w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;We even have indigenous Shuwa Arabs in Borno and this shows how our histories are tied.
