When you try to claim Arewa land as your Homeland and started driving them out of their houses and pushing them northwards.
Re: Suicide Bombing In Nigeria by BOSS7: 1:27pm On Dec 26, 2008
Why Hausas? Why not Yorubas or Igbos?

Tribalism stinks,

Nigerians as a whole do not have the sort of mind for such. Let's say that the average Nigerian is too much of a coward to be considered capable of such. And yes( for those who see in tribes), that includes Hausas. I wait to be PROVEN wrong.

I doubt anyone would disprove that Nigerians as a whole have the balls to strap explosives on themselves in the name of Allah or the so-called fight for freedom, not even if occupied by a foreign military force.

Which one nah Arewa land again? I hope you are not insinuating that Plateau State is Areaw Territory. You people wanted Sharia in Plateau ST. and we said hell no.
BTW is there another country where only a handful of states a Sharia, and the rest of the country is not?

Like the saying goes: The truth is always bitter.

Everyone know some tribes value human lives more than others. Imagine having children and abandoning them to the elements in the name of 'Almajiri'?

My friend in Kano told me that the easiest way to start the killing is for an okada rider to run to the town centre and shout 'Somebody has insulted the Holy Prophet in Shalawa !' and the mayhem starts(most times after Jumat prayers ! ).

You all heard of the teacher that was killed because she flung a students bag which unfortunately contained the Holy Koran,or the tailor who was arguing religion with her fellow tailor in Gombe state and met her untimely death. The list is endless. These can never happen in some other places in Nigeria.

The US invaded Afghanistan,the Afghans were rejoicing,churches were being burnt in North East Nigeria.

Sure, let us close our eyes to the millions of kids that roam the streets in the south east and west and concentrate on the almajiri kids in the north. Woohoo!!! Let us pretend we do not see the many kids forced to live and fend for themselves in the south.

@ Kobo junkie, we re not even talkin about d unnecessary killing of innocent civilians which is predominant in d northern naija, carried out by d hausa people on christians.

If U are among them, when will U guys recognise that we are in the 21st century. Why d HaTING !!

While not claiming to 'know-it-all',as far as I can recall,its usually a shame for esp Igbos&Yoruba to have their chilren fend for themselves,yes they do street trading,housegirls/boys etc. But an Ibo or Yoruba child roaming the street months on end without a roof,while begging for food. . . . . . . . . .  . .really beats my imagination. If the family is uncapabale there'll be some aunty,cousin to do the needful.

I stand to be corrected  !

I'm not saying ll hausas are like this,I just think we should address these issues & not try to defend the indefensible. Kano State governor(someone I respect) even said 'there's nothing wrong with Almajiri'.

It all boils down ultimately to the valus placed on human lives .

If the above is remotely true, why are the number of homeless children in a  country numbering in the MILLIONS? I mean come on. Whether shame applies in one region or not, the fact remains that these fragile human beings are on the streets, with no roof over their heads. Aren't most of the families up north who abandon their kids incapable of taking care of them too?

Here is one of the huge problems I have with arguments trying to inject such ideas, How can you conclude that the Hausas are worse than the southerners when the southerners are just as guilty of the same crime (Abandonment of kids)? How can you reach such a conclusion? The situation in the south is just as bad as it is in the north but you offer excuses for the south as justification for your claim that they are better? Don’t you see how ridiculous that comes off? Sort of like someone telling me people are beheaded in the north but those beheaded in the south get their heads used for juju so that means the southerners value life more than the northerners do. Are we still on planet earth here??

@Kobojunkie,
i appreciate your trying to take the midle road here,but for us to move forward as a nation,we must tell ourselves some really bitter truths. I'm certainly not a tribalist/racist,but we must learn to address our prblems frontally & untill we do this. . . . . I remember when Obama gave his speech on racism in America,most people commended him.

Lets call a spade what it is

@ auwa187,

You wrote this last line as a joke, but the reality is that you are ready to use the grenades on your fellow human being just for no reason.

Re: Suicide Bombing In Nigeria by tharma(f): 5:38pm On Dec 27, 2008
Sometimes I get pissed off with the tribalist here trying to accuse us, the northerners of every henious crime

However as Kobojunkie said it is a national problem. Recently we saw on channel 4 how children are being accused of being witches. We also read of babies factories in Enugu. And there are many such king of children in west too. However, the problem in the north is that the Almajiri system is institutionalized, to the extend that political leaders are afraid of taking side against it. In the olden days, the Almajiri system is not about beggin, they started begging when people started to become materialistic and also when farming ceased to be the main economic activity in the north. Mos t of the farming activities then were done by the Almijiri and they are paid in kind.

People should understand that in the North before the British invade us and killed the Sultan in 1903 we have our own system of education - which is Ajmi based. Because of that the western education faced a steep opposition in the north. Adequate awareness and transistion programmed was not created to facilitate the transformation of the Almjiri system of education. Our governments have failed in that respect and that is what we all complaining on daily basis.

A Homeless child in the north is just as helpless as a homeless child in the south. Lives are taken for granted for in the north as well as in the south. A head taken off by a juju worshipper in the south is same as a head taken off by a rampaging jihadist in the north. Please Let us stop offering up twisted truths, the bitter truth is the north and south, both in the same deteriorating conditions and this has nothing to do with racism in America but the fact that we as a people have yet to show ourselves better in anyway. This is a nation filled with finger pointers and less with problem solvers. The bitter truth is no single tribe or people are clean and so calling a spade a spade but continuing to inject bias is not going to work. Not for us or the future generation.
