All these migrants claiming Nijeriya.

Ersan:
You seem very curious about hausa people, may i enquire why? I'm saying this because i remember your last thread accusing hausas of using an offensive word to refer to igbos...

abdelrahman:
never,both articles were wrote by some people,haba.

EazyMoh:
OP what's your obsession with Hausa or Fulani people? And the fact that you have to use a Muslim name to misrepresent them like many of you do over here is just ridiculous and childish.
There are Hausa people and there are Fulani people, but since each of them has a very strong cultural identify it is difficult for one to swallow the other. At the end the two adapting each others cultures and becoming almost one ethnic group.
For example if all Hausa and Fulani are to be genetically tested, it's possible to find those with exclusive Fulani/Hausa genes to be very negligible.
But the most important thing is their bond in Islam. In Islam every ethnic group is viewed as equal to another. So segregation and racial purity is inconsequential.

Point of correction, religion is different from ethnic! Your identity and culture shouldn't be made redundant because of whatever religion.

Away with such nonsensical rubbish!

EazyMoh:

No ethnic identity is made redundant. Look at a Hausa or a Fulani man and tell me he has neglected his culture at the expense of religion.
What I was inferring was that ethnic identities take a back seat the moment Hausa and Fulani forged into one religion.
Hausa and Fulani view themselves as one due to Islam which the rest of the world even started calling them one entity. Them plus the rest of the north form Arewa.... at the end forming Nigeria and Africa.

abdelrahman:
same as igbo were also migrant.

igbodefender:
Point of correction: Igbos are aborigines in Igbo Land. They met no one there.

abdelrahman:
yes all of us are migrants,even yoruba,we came from somewhere.

igbodefender:
From where?

abdelrahman:
i though igbo said they are from isreal?

Nope, your identity shouldn't take a back seat no matter the religion you opt. That's the fact!

As a matter fact, having your identity and heritage destroyed because of one religion is quite stupid and a huge shame! Even the Arabs drew clear lines between these two things (religion and heritage) as seen by how they were reluctant to open heir borders for the fleeing syrians.. These are folks who would rather preserve their pure bloodline than allow anyone to come in and taint it no matter his religion.

The British who brought in christianity didn't suddenly turn to another thing, just because they are christians. Even the Jewish haven't stopped being one.. Abegi!

Being a Christian or Muslim shouldn't erode your identity as a person. In fact, it's a shame and quite stupid to claim anything else. It probably means such person lack self worth and at the end of the day, it still doesn't stop you from being what you're!

And yes, the Hausa cultures have been destroyed! There's nothing you can pinpoint to show that this was their culture before they became muslims and yet, all these still doesn't make them Fulani 'cos Fulanis know their own. Even their previous Hausa king titles have taken a back seat which is a shame. I recall them finding one old pot artefact the other day yet the foolish ones in their midst went ahead to destroy it before we even know what was inside.

I just dey shame for them.

igbodefender:
You must respect the truth that every inch of Nigeria already has indigenes.

EazyMoh:

You don't seem to get what am saying, even the Arabs you quoted were hundreds of different warring tribes before they were united by Islam.
The Syrian crisis is purely a political one, and its simply escabated by the fact that the Muslim world has lost its true sense of brotherhood which is meant to guarantee every Muslim equal right and protection.
Let me use USA to try and make my points clear.
To a typical America, what do you think is their most important identity? Their ethnicity or just being American?
You do know their ethnicity, political views, orientation take a back seat when national interest is concerned. They are American first before any other thing.
This is the kind of patriotism strengthened within the Muslim community of northern Nigeria long before whitemen came. This has helped cement relationship between Hausa and Fulani people that till today they (and the rest of the world) see them(selves) as more the same than different.
A Hausa man will be among the people whose culture always manifest in the most conspicuous way! To say that Hausa culture has been diminished by Islam it simply means you don't know both.

abdelrahman:
ok,i gbadun you jare my bro,i see that you will be a leader of the igbo tomorrow.

America is quite different as it's the meeting point of all races. Besides, we have some who are still in touch with their identity over there. This is quite different from say, you're in your homeland yet became something else just because you happened to practise a certain religion. It's like the British destroying their queen's heritage all because they became christians. It's not done like that. It's quite stupid and a shame.

And the Arabs are quite one. They may have sub ethnics groups among them which is analogous to some sub ethnics in Yoruba such as Awori, Ijebu, Ikale etc but it doesn't stop them from being one. At least, majority of them are Arabs! No wonder they failed to open their borders to the fleeing syrians. Don't you think as the fore runners of Islam, they should be the first to accommodate the syrians in their midst? Yet they put their ethnics first and foremost above anything else, even above the religion they love to champion.

And pray tell what are the hausa cultures today apart from the Islam religion they practise?

Abegi.. The fact is Hausa have lost their identity and it's a huge shame! The fulani on the other hand has undiluted tribes of theirs in Niger, Mali etc, even some whereas we can't pinpoint who's exactly Hausa or not in their own homeland! What a shame!
