The Truth About The Hausas by Twaci(f): 10:26am On Sep 18, 2017 |
Saw this article on Facebook and thought it's best to share here. It's quite long, but please read through patiently. Enjoy! Last year I went to our major market to shop groceries for the house. I gathered all my groceries in one shop while the shop owner helped me to look for a "barrow pusher" https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1868043163213748&id=100000242486560 Cc: Lalasticlala 32 Likes 6 Shares |

Actually, some parts of this article is right and some wrong. Yes, a lot of Hausa people are marginalized but not because they are hausa. Nigerians dont hate Hausa people. Nigerians hate poor people. If the hausa boy that helped you was an Hausa man in an E class mercedes, the lake driver will offer to carry his bag for him. Look at how Nigerians treat homosexuals, yes, they insult and will lynch them. Let then meet a rich homosexual, they will find an excuse. It will most likely be "when you have too much money, you dont think well" Nigerians will easily burn a petty thief and even use their money to buy fuel but a lot of us were on social media asking for the release of Evans. 22 Likes 7 Shares |

I guess you live in the SE but I think there is too much hate filled Igbos than any other tribe in Nigeria. Not all but most, I don't want anybody to see this as tribalism,its just a fact. Maybe it's because of the scar left of by the Civil war but it's a fact so many Igbos are filled with hate. Generally Speaking tribes from the South see poor Hausa people as inferior humans. 5 Likes |

Insulting Hausa people physically must be a recent event and must be the outcome of Nnamdi Kanu inspired hate extremist view. when I was growing up, I know most of Hausa poor men as Aboki, and rich men as Mallam; none of those names intend to insult. |

Dead thread! Afonja thrash! It was Igbos that killed those Corpers after 2011 Presidential elections in the North and not your Hausa Saints? It was Igbos that killed 12 innocent Anambarians holding family meeting in Adamawa State in 2013 and not your Hausa Saints? It was Igbos that beheaded Gideon Akaluka in 1995 and Gloria in the North and not your peaceful Hausa Saints? It was Igbos that have been bombing churches and killing people unprovoked in the North and not your Hausa Saints? The list continues and Igbos have lost over 3000 people in the North from 2011 to 2015 with properties destroyed but never retaliated yet hypocrite like you does not see and appreciate it. 11 Likes 2 Shares |

I totally agree about hausas being humble and down to earth. Most times, it depends on the individual. I do business with the Hausas and I can tell you how truthful and humble they are. An Igbo man is always looking for a way to cheat you in everything. Go to Alaba Intl market and you'd see the igbos at their greedy best; unless the ones that have become more loving and accommodating. I agree with what you posted. Most Igbo people are cocky and filled with pride. Igbos are not marginalized; they are the most successful tribe in Nigeria. An average igbo man would never want to settle for less; even when he's starving. You need to see the way an average Igbo man behaves when he just wins a jackpot. He shouts down at anyone who dares to stand in his way. Nnamdi KANU is a clear description of an average Igbo man. He's cocky, proud, talkative etc. Such mentality is the reason why there's slow growth and development in the Southeast. Look at Peter obi and his repulsive behavior. He boasts about all he has done, while others has done more than he ever did. Sullivan Chime is a different kind of an Igbo man; he practically turned Enugu around. My point is this: An Igbo man is always concerned about success, and that way he makes sure he gets it by all means; even if it means sacrificing his mother's head. Greed is also an issue. 15 Likes 3 Shares |

History/tradition can be written or oral. The Igbos are let to know how Aguiyi-Ironsi died and all that. Since the pogrom and subsequent incidents,in this country,we have not had an apolitical emotional roundtable. The politicians who should be enforcers jump in to use ethnicity as a weapon. Hausas are hated partly because they seem unbendable when it comes to their religion and tribe.Life,in generality should be one that should encompass all to live and lead with peace. Youths went to the North to serve,one wrong statement from somebody ended the lives of those bright souls. In a nutshell,in as much as I cherish oneness,the politicians aren't doing enough,in a plural society virtually all appointments are in a particular direction. What is the job of NOA? And all other agencies/parastatals that should preach peace? We can get it right. We just need emotional get-together. Some people have things in mind they want to spill out. So you cannot beat a child,and tell him/her not to cry. This,though is condemnable by all standards. 3 Likes |

Re: The Truth About The Hausas by Afam4eva(m): 12:14pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
I really don't understand where the writer is going with the article. I'm having a feeling that she feels that Hausas are the most marginalized just because people insult them. So, i'll address the issue on two fronts. Marginalization is based on political and economic deprivation and not necessarily on an individual basis and because people from a particular group are insulted does not mean they are marginalized especially if the leaders from their areas control most of the political structures in the country. Though i'll agree with your assertion as to how poor Hausa people are debased and the butt of everyone's jokes. The average Nigerian see them are uneducated and uninspiring people who have nothing to offer society, so they call them names such as Aboki (in jest) or gambari, boko haram and so on and every right thinking person should find such behaviors abhorrent. I also find them to be the most kind and selfless people. I know because i've interacted with people from different tribes in Nigeria. But that's where it ends. 8 Likes 1 Share |

Afam4eva: If you want to see deprivation of all forms, go up North. Yet they don't scream marginalization. When igbos scream marginalization I tend to wonder what they want except Power. Because Igbos are Everywhere doing legitimate businesses without hindrance from anyone. The Eastern States get their monthly Federal revenue like every other state. So what is the marginalization they keep ranting about?. 9 Likes 2 Shares |
