At Times I Feel Ashamed As A Hausa Man by 13volts(m): 5:58pm On Apr 18, 2011
Why can't we let go without these violence.
Why can't we be like other Muslims.
Our Muslim brothers in northern Ghana, Cameroon and other African state.
I thank god this is the last time buhari will ever present himself for election. With is retirement no any other northern politician from the north will generate such emotion and crowd.
I also thank god most of the victims were pdp barons, who are also part of the problem.

Note. I may regret my tribe but not my religion which shud be dis associated with this mayhem.

Your stance is appreciated. Never be ashamed of who you are, but join hands with others to take the reigns of progressive leadership that is sadly lacking in the North. Many will strengthen you from North, South, East and West.

This is the only positive from this riots. In Bauchi, Gombe and Kano the youths knew what they were doing and they were not attacking innocents. they had an objective and they executed it.

I hope that the new government formed after the final elections next week will raise the standards of living for all Nigerians, and bring security to all Nigerians regardless of religion of tribe.

@Poster, here is a good question for you. Is it true that the average Hausa person(majority would be the poor people) up north is both politically and religiously educated? Moreso then their counterparts in the south?
Re: At Times I Feel Ashamed As A Hausa Man by 13volts(m): 6:15pm On Apr 18, 2011
No
Re: At Times I Feel Ashamed As A Hausa Man by Kobojunkie: 6:17pm On Apr 18, 2011
Are you sure See claim made below . . .


Basseti:

Ok, let me put it another way. Maybe U will get it now.

The average uneducated hausa man is more "religiously and politically" aware than say the average uneducated Igbo or Yoruba man.


Before U throw your pants on fire, do a little bit of sampling.

Maybe you should enlighten your illiterates folks instead of bytching around here.Nobody speaks well of hausa/fulanis because of their useless lifestyle.
Re: At Times I Feel Ashamed As A Hausa Man by Rhino5dm: 6:21pm On Apr 18, 2011
Yeah! Its really pathetic to a Hausa man in this modern day Nigeria. Why haven't we witness violence/riots from those places when Buhari contested against Yaradua, An election which was categorise as the worst in human history??

Sometimes i wonder whats driving out goats from the bush to be causing trouble??. Little wonder everyone sees you as a pest/parasite.

I supported Buhari and stiil do, But i will never be part of any violence/unnecessary loss of human life.

kano/kaduna/jos, you guys really sucks!

My massage to you PEOPLE is to drop your violent nature or be prepared to face the full consequencies. No room for this poo in 21st century. nuff said.

Hausa are politically active. An average hausaman listen to 4 international radio station 3 times a day. Radio France, BBC, German radio, VOA, radio china and Iran. Given the above you expect them to be politically and internationally updated nd informed. On the side of religious well, I ve seen a lot of learned Islamic Cleric from the SW. But then the north has always produce the most learned Islamic scholars in 9jah. But the difference here is that a yoruba muslin has an additional advantage I.e. Education which enables you make rational decisions even when mislead by fanatical imans. This is what we are lacking in the north.

The guy corrected himself. . . . he did not mean they are necessarily more informed. But I have to ask you, are you of the idea that the average Hausa man is more informed?

Yes, I would expect someone who, as you claim, listens to 4 international radio stations 3 times a day  to be more informed, and from my experience up north, I know a lot of folks play the radio, but I don't know if I will say they really listen. But I would like to know your opinion on this more.

I am glad it was Kobo that brought this onto this thread.

But do me a favor, dont even take 13volts word for it. I have asked U guys to go out and talk to real people. U will be suprised at what U find out once U cast off stereotyping and be objective.

When I made a similar submission, some said I was a joker with Kobo giving me a wow!!!

Sometimes it pays to just step out of the internet bubble and see exactly whats going on.

what do u mean u feel ashamed to be an hausa man angry

so southerners should not feel ashamed to be ethnic bigots abi

or how do u expect buahri to get 0.6% vote in Imo and others, how

in as much as i do not support violence and ethnoc bigotry, i ur topic is bit too harsh undecided

what is bad in being an hausa just because people are protesting undecided

i agree GEJ has won and we should all pray for him and work together but please you topic title does not make sense here

To add to this, I have a friend who is from Kaduna who seems to have a different picture from that which you have of the average Hausa man, and his is that information is scarce and that the people who control the limited information pipelines use it more for their own good than for the good of the general public.

Let's face the reality. Those people fighting are not doing so for Buhari. They are doing it for what they want to loot. I witness the bonfire around Gwamna road in kaduna this morning. And those fighting are the uninform, poverty ravaged youth. There sight will be bring tears to your face. Men we still have alot of way to go. Success Nigeria  cry
