One thing I heard about west african ulama is that they dress like the common people, so when they join people they are not distinguished and people think they are just like them...so they are open...those who dress with the "sunnah" dress are too different from the commoners so they either avoid them or they act different in front of them.

Br. that is not some positive remark. A heir of a nabi

has to live by the dictates of the nabi

not with the flow of the flock. He is a leader not a muqtadi (follower). The idea is to dress as sunnah and appropriate of Ulama as possible, and yet be so accessible and open to masses that the masses take on your colour and not the other way around.
