Look at jos... a once serene city with the best climate and tourism potential in Nigeria.... now a no-go area because u all embraced the jihadist fulani against reasonable people in the south.
The christian middle belt should look around sub saharan africa and see the most developed countries and ask themselves if muslim countries are among them.
Until the middle belt joins the south to cut the hausa-fulani to size, Nigeria wont move forward.

HAH:

Okay, here's why:

When the white men made to enter Plateau during the pre-colonial times, the locals resisted them. Then came the colonial days, and the beginning of tin mining activities. In an effort to get back at the locals, the oyibo men "imported" workers from Bauchi and provided them lands to build, sidelining the locals.

People from different parts of the country began to take notice of this and trooped into Jos in droves. Of these people, the Hausas and Igbos were the majority. The locals were mainly settled in villages at the time. Jos north was the commercial nerve center of the town then. So it attracted the most population of people. Unfortunately, with the mass emigration of Igbos before and during the civil war, the Hausas bought houses from departing Igbos at giveaway prices. They capitalised on that to build the population that you speak of.

Also, it is for this same reason that they did everything necessary to get Hausa into the church. When the missionaries came, they wanted to use Ngas, one of the major Plateau indigenous languages, but the colonial masters resisted their attempts, forcing them to adopt Hausa instead.

Unfortunately, we have people like Lalong who is too dumb to help reverse all these. Asides Jang, all other Plateau leaders have been too lilly livered to tackle the issues head-on.

It's obvious that Lalong underwent a rapprochement with the Hausa-Fulani community. And that required him to put the Plateau people down.

The man has been nothing but a sellout since he assumed leadership. A good-for-nothing nonentity that is a personification of the 'bad and nocent." First he appointed a Hausa-Fulani as commissioner, and now this.

He's been subtly aiding the Fulani attacks on Plateau indigenes with his foot-dragging. I can deal with his corruption, including building a multimillion naira home in Taraba. But this is taking it too far.

He'd go down as one of the most infamous betrayers in my dear state. Can't believe my people overlooked the smart, educated, eloquent, and highly dynamic GNS Pwajok for this pestiferous gobshite that doesn't little as inspire hate. I feel sorry for the clueless thing! It's no wonder he's the most reviled "thing" on the plateau today!

There is nothing wrong in the listing.

Fulani is one of the major languages / ethnic groups in Plateau State.

The largest local govt (in terms of land mass) has a Fulani ruling dynasty. In fact, the King is one of the First Class Kings in the State and Nigeria at large. The people of the local govt are predominantly Fulani and Jukun.

So Nairalanders should always get their facts straight before making condemnation.

There is an entire local govt area in Benue bordering Cross Rivers where fulani have displaced the Tivi people and through Miyetti Allah, they are claiming to the original settlers.

The people of Plateau helped to fight the Igbos all in the name that they are northerners. The real north later came and pay them back handsomely burning their houses, killing their young ones, raping their wives and their children right in their presence, destroying their farmland and their crop. I do not see anything wrong if the the people of Plateau are incorporating their master.

Please my brother, you have every right to write but accurately. It's not every ethnic group in the said North that was conquered by the Fulanis. In 18806, the jihad headed by Othman Danfodio was soundly defeated at Ushongo hills in Ushongo local government of Benue State. They never conquered the Tiv people, they never conquered the Jukun people, they never conquered the Plateau tribes. The main reason Tiv people are 99.9999% christians, the main reason the invasion tagged 'farmers-herdsmen clashes in these states. History is your friend and probably not the police. Thanks

Fulani brought Islam to the islamic part of north. Yes they conquered the hausa states only but was able to convince the remaining to join the northern region when Britiain stopped their conquest.

Meanwhile they conquered ilorin, a yoruba state

Is there anywhere in Nigeria where you won't find a fulani settlement? Does that make them indigenous tribes in those states as well? Truth is, Fulani are indigenous to places like Adamawa and Gombe only. Even there, they are immigrants.

is that a serious note of regret in your voice? is the indigenous people of plateau state now regretting joining the jihadist hausa-fulanis to kill the Igbos?

Anyways sha! if una dey include fulani as a major tribe in plateau, you guys should not forget to include the Igbos too - after all, its on record the Igbos make up 27% population of plateau state.
