JikanBaura: I can only try and mostly speculation for the part without history The 7 Hausa States prior to the Conquests of Uthman Dan Fodio AKA Banza Bakwai (7 bastards) where pagans whom the Invading Fulani Horde converted to Islam. In spite of this.. the Fulani's maintained a strict anti-co-mingling tradition with the Hausas. Politically they also ruled over the Northern Region up-till this present day. Their girls are not only "fair-skinned and beautiful", their lineage is also perceived as royal coming with associated benefits of economic and political connections. There is also a complex of sorts in the Hausa Community that they are not as better-placed as the Fulani's It therefore points to the assumption that marrying into a Fulani family is one that comes with pre-thought of the above considerations That is as far as i can assume |

crafteck: Every group of people is guilty at one point or another. Who said anything about Fulani people being broke? Fulani people don't flaunt their wealth, it's against our culture. 1 Like 1 Share |

oxygenlove: LMAO Power of Nairaland: I'm a white foreigner from Finland, never been to Nigeria and knew next to nothing about Nigeria before I discovered Nairaland and I'm laughing at this remark after spending a few days of surfing here. If you marry an urban Fulani lady, your offspring won't be herdsmen. Find one from Lagos! 1 Like |

revontuli: The Scandinavians of the old love to plunder, that was their only motive. So I don't think the Fulani fitted that comparison. |

LaEvilIMiss: Why speculate in this era of information ? |
Re: Before You Marry A Fulani Lady: 3 Important Things To Know by revontuli(f): 12:56am On Mar 21, 2018 |
Baaballiyo: I'm talking about the modern culture, not 1000 years ago. Scandinavians don't show off wealth. They generally live below their means, or at lest don't spend money on stupid luxuries and baubles. They spend the money on things they love. An outdoor lover will spend 2000 Euros on mountain climbing gear, but use the same phone until it dies of old age. |

Baaballiyo: Because information has not become Intelligent Insight before i can be sure of what I am saying, I need to look at the data (structured or unstructured) and organized that into information from which i can analyze into intelligible insight. so far all I have is some history documented and oral largely unverifiable and mostly romanticized . but if you have got data, i am willing to have a look |

Re: Before You Marry A Fulani Lady: 3 Important Things To Know by namfav(m): 6:27pm On Mar 22, 2018 |
yes many people leave because the forum has much ignorance on a matter of facti learn harshly and perhaps out of my ignorance the number of not fulani womens that have fulani hair styles, at first it was a big shock because these things are significant i brought it up on a different forum, these hair styles are id or passport which identify a woman origin and purity just to see them being used for fashion i won't say i am in favour, let me say when it comes to a certain fulani women, do not touch her hair as a saying goes 1 Like |

revontuli: There are quite a number of Fulani here, but most are shy and choosy about what to comment on or respond to, besides the few that talk use to represent us well. And going by how abusive and bigoted some people in this forum tend to be towards Fulani in general we prefer to abide by the saying When impious men bear sway the post of honour becomes a private station. 1 Like |
