I've always maintained that Islam is a peaceful religion even though it's used by the northern Fulani oligarchy as a tool for political machinations and expansion. The Hausas just like other primordial tribes in Nigeria were pagans living peacefully with their idols. They accepted Islam but unfortunately become more Islamic than the Fulanis who brought it. Islamic practices that do not exist in core Islamic states like "almajiri" and "sprawling hijabs" become strong traditions in the north especially among the Hausas. The Hausa took the Fulanis as their brothers in faith, who couldn't hurt them. If a Fulaniman caused trouble, all Hausas would rise in defence. The Hausas foolishly believed that whatever happened to them was from Providence till the fulanis killed all important hausa chiefs and installed fulani emirs and took their lands. It was like a dream because the Hausas trusted the Fulanis so much, as the people who brought "salvation" to them. Whatever evil Fulanis did to Hausa was given Islamic therapy until the Hausas lost their lands and everything. Even some Hausas today in their obvious slavery, still thinking they are doing religious duties, fight with the last drop of their blood in protection of the ridiculously few fulanis who conquered them. It's now that many Hausamen are waking up to realize they have been conned and lost everything to the fulanis. The lesson Yorubas should learn is never to allow the Fulanis use Islam to divide them. The way some Yoruba Muslims talk shows that danger is creeping in. When I heard some Yoruba Muslims accuse fayose of appointing christians, I shook my head in disasapointment. In Lagos, a question of christian or Muslim governor is rearing up. Some Osun people are already accusing the governor of Islamizing the state. In some Yoruba towns, the Muslims now mount big speakers and play their cassettes even on Sundays when church services are going on. Yoruba chiefs are receiving complaints on this. This is not to exonerate christians because they too have their own problems but the issue is that once there is crack on the wall the violent lizard will creep in, the people won't speak in one voice, there will be doubts and mutual suspicion. It's shocking that some Yorubas still criticized Fayose for resisting the Fulani herdsmen. What will happen if a muslim becomes ekiti governor and he begins to bring religious considerations when attack is imminent? Religion is a dangerous opium. Alliance with the north is good but it must be done with caution. Politics or religion shouldn't create the gap that existed between Hausa Muslims and christians which gave Fulani the chance to conquer them. Violent preachers either christians or Muslims should be cautioned. The warning today is "after having a handshake with the Fulanis, count your fingers some of them may be missing".

The Blind Trust Legacies!

It's all politics as usual

Rubbish....

Nice one op

This topic again!una no dey tire?

Arrant nonsense! All these kindergarten analysts sef.

Restructuring the 36 States for Police, Resources and Election full autonomy and limiting F.G to liaison only for Foreign Affairs will solve all Nigeria's Problems.
Also, suspend those 46 conspiring Senators on Election Bill.

The problem of Southwest is Yoruba Muslims.. they used to be liberals..but recently some are going haywire..

Aregbe is a bad omen to Yoruba land.. he encouraged this Muslims and emboldened them ..started during his Campaign against Oyin..

Soon the governors will be Muslims..then the call for Emir will begin...

Just a little while..

All of a sudden certain people are now concerned about Hausas the same hausas they called unprintable names before 2015 elections. Stop wasting your time your attempt to cause division in the north is futile
