The Bokoharamic Muslims and the Islamic Muslims in Nigeria?

Many Nigerian Muslims want to be disassociated from the dreaded Boko Haram Islamic terrorists and they have denounced the extremism of the Islamists insisting that true Islam is a religion of peace and forbids violence.
Majority of Muslims are not terrorists and don’t like being profiled as terror suspects.
Therefore, I conclude that it means we should separate the two kinds of Muslims in Nigeria to avoid erroneous or ambiguous generalization.

There are the “Bokoharamic” Muslims and the Islamic Muslims, okay?
But they both worship at the same mosques and share the same symbol of the crescent and the star.
