West Africans who do not know about eastern African history, let me warn you: Somalians are the enemies of all phenotypically black people. They are the offspring of Eurasian invaders onto the continent. They have enslaved Africans on the eastern coast of Africa for years. As have Ethiopians. Ethiopia abolished slavery in the mid-20th century. The Somalians traded in Bantu slaves, the Ethiopians in Nilotic slaves. The Ethiopians used to castrate the slaves for Arabs as Islam prohibited castration and Ethiopia was a pre-Islamic Arab/Yemeni Christian nation. The Somalians used to help in raiding slaves. All the groups of the Horn of Africa (Ethiopia, Eritrea, Somalia, Djibouti) are the children of the slave traders of the eastern right half of the continent historically, even before the rise of Islam and the Arab Muslim and Portuguese Christian slave trade. Like all mixed race offspring they have served as middle-men between their two ancestries.

Ethiopia has attempted to cash in on African liberation by spearheading the African Union so it may continue to act as a middleman for Middle Eastern and European interests. As soon as Somalia reaches peace they will do the same.

Somalia, Ethiopia, Eritrea and Djibouti are the pits of hell in Africa where millions of our phenotypically black African ancestors were captured and sold in their slave markets. They as well as Arabs and Europeans deserve no place in the African continent:

"Emperor Menelik II, who has been described as Ethiopia's "greatest slave entrepreneur", taxed the trade to pay for guns and ammunition as he battled for control of the whole country, which he ruled from 1889 to 1913. " http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-14357121

The descendants of these slaves which are called black people in Ethiopia and Eritrea and Somalia and Djibouti are still known as Baria (slave in Ethiopia and Eritrea for any of their Nilotic minorities) and Jareer (slave in Somalia and Djibouti for any of their Bantu minorities), just like the Arabs still call black people Abd as a common name.

These are your enemies they have shown their stripes! I am happy they have trolled around online so their racism and this hidden history can be exposed and we can unite against them in honor of our ancestors they burned, Molested, pillaged and killed. Abibifahodie (Complete African Liberation!)

All non-phenotypically black Africans are enemies of Africa by definition but pay careful attention to and protect yourself from three historically dangerous groups: (1) Horn of Africans (2) Arabs (3) Europeans.

Former slaveowners will always treat you in the way these three groups treat Africans. Do not be surprised. It is expected. But their whitewashing of their history and creation of AU headquarters there, propaganda towards Africans and attempt to take advantage of the rise of Africa has obscured this history to many Africans, especially those in West Africa who are far from where the history of this trade occurred. But be sure, phenotypically-Black Africans - Bantus and Nilotes especially in southern Somalia and southern Ethiopia and Eritrea respectively know very well these people are their enemies. Do not dishonor your ancestors by befriending the enemies, killers, capturers and slaveholders of your African brothers and sisters.

Their intermixing and cooperation with the invaders of the continent created the results of what you see today on Nairaland and elsewhere online- historical and continued enemies to phenotypically-black African people everywhere. Beware!

All those in the eastern right half of Africa know about these people very well which is one reason why they have never tried to integrate with them economically, politically or socially. Very few Kenyans, Ugandans, Tanzanians, Rwandans or Burundians (except the Tutsi who may come from the Horn of Africa and these myths helped precipitate the genocide) have any interest or connection to this region of Africa. There is no tourism, inter-cultural exchange, or interest in learning about these slave-owners. The East African Community (Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi) that hopes to soon federate into one country has never been open to these four countries. South Sudan was immediately invited to join the East African Community after their liberation from their Arab oppressors: Somalia, Ethiopia, Eritrea, and Djibouti have never been invited and never will. People from these countries understand clearly the three enemies of Africa: (1) Horn of Africans (2) Arabs and (3) Europeans because they have been victims of slave-holding from all three and saw the destruction of their descendants (the Tutsis) in Rwanda, Burundi, DR Congo and Uganda. We do not speak of these things because we think they are self evident, one reason these people dare not troll or venture onto Kenyan, Tanzanian, Ugandan, Rwandan, Congolese or Burundian forums. They have to come to your forums because they know you do not know their dark and desolate history.

In the name of your ancestors and ancestors of phenotypically black peoples everywhere-Beware! Beware! Beware! These people are worse than Arabs and Europeans because they will try to claim African unity to take advantage of Africa's rise. But do not be fooled. Wonder why the African Union never gets anything done? Because of these Horn of African infiltrators, in addition to the Arab infiltrators up north who are part of the organization. Beware! Beware! Beware! Do not be tricked by their often dark skin and often kinky hair-like the Arabs in the north they will kill, molest and enslave phenotypically-black Africans as soon as they get the chance. Just be grateful Africa that Somalia is in civil war and Ethiopia and Eritrea are still in conflict with each other after 30 years of war and Djibouti is without resources or powerless. Just be grateful for small kindnesses.

Abibifahodie! (Complete African Liberation!).

Ethiopia Slave Trade-only abolished in mid-20th century-just like among Arabs and Europeans, this is ingrained in their culture, their disdain for "barias" or phenotypical blacks, no matter their claims to "African unity" to cash in on the rise of Africa:
