Most sins/crimes/shortcomings of the Fulani are blamed on the Hausa. For e.g., Farouk the bomber is Fulani, Yaradua is Fulani, Atiku is Fulani. Why are the Fulani always in the background, and Hausa take the heat? I am thoroughly confused here

The majority of the North are Hausa's. Unfortunately the Fulani's have been ruling since Othman dan fodio. They made a 'pact' with Hausa's who are in the majority, and called themslves Hausa/Fulani.

Fula's are eveywhere in the Africa northern region, they are the semi normadic people, they are from Arabian pennisula, and mostly jihadist who are strong in their Isalmic beleives. (not neccessarily extermist but have a very and strict Islamic mode of life(sharia), like a conservative christians)

The power base of Islamic North is with the Saudana of Sokoto ( the sokoto caliphate) and the Political base of the North is what is called the 'Kaduna Mafia' but it is actually Kastina because historically the Emir of Kastina is the Haed of Emirs in the North, and meetings are usually held in his domain.

The Hausa's are just the punching bags for the North whereas they don't have political power. Majority of the past Nigeria leaders from the north are either Fulani's or brought up by them.

The kaduna mafia things came up from the Military angle because that is where the Military head is based and do and undo to the rest of Nigeria.

Vigasimple,

You are partly right but that does not answer my question. Thanks.

Bros, where did you get that analysis of the North from? The Emir of Katsina being the historical head of Northern emirs, this is the first time I am hearing of that. Befor the Fulani conquest most of the Hausa areas that form the North-West were independent city states like Kano, Daura, Zazzau e.t.c. While the North-East was dominated by the Kanem-Borno empire and the remaining parts including some Hausa states were for some time ruled by the Jukuns. Later the Fulanis consolidated the North-West and formed the caliphate headquartered at Sokoto but were stopped just at the borders of Borno which they were unable to penetrate. That is why up till today the Sultan rule doesn't extend into states like Borno and Yobe which were part of the ancient Kanem-Borno empire which extends into places like Chad, Sudan and Libya.

Just a little primer on the setup of emirates in Northern Nigeria

There is no need to insult the poster here. He has not insulted any body here so far neither has he insulted anybody since this year. Respect please.
Back to the post, the Hausas and the Fulanis have so much mixed up that you rarely find pure Hausas and pure fulanis. Apart from the normadic Fulanis you see with cattles in Nigerian roads, and holds no political powers, the rest of the fulani race is interwoven and assimiliated into Hausa ways of life.

ah, this post is the missing link.

**nods wisely**

All of them na the same.

Does this observation not apply today? We southerners insult the entire north, all due to the stupid Fulani and their dullard brother.
