LOLZ......grin grin grin grin
After reading thru' the last ten posts on this thread I could't help but laughed helplessly.

Its really a remarkable improvement to see Igbo intentions & interest in the ND slightly adjusted towards reality. At last someone's efforts is paying off grin grin grin and I have no idea what performed the magic.

As for those demanding "cautionary notes" from "my real Ijaw peeps" and others fantasizing about Ijaw possessions and women, pls come to Odurogwu OOPS! Bakana to get them. Don't forget to come along with your coffins with your names imprinted on it.

Lets discourse Igbo claims on Ijawland on another thread, we've derailled from the topic of this thread.

The Hausa-Fulani has no ideals, no ambitions save such as sensual in character. He is a fatalist, spendthrift and a gambler. He is gravely immoral and is seriously diseased that he is a menace to any community to which he seeks to attach himself".

- Lord Lugard in a Letter to his colleague, Walter H. Lang on September 25, 1918.

“Under the circumstances of what has been happening in Plateau State, some people just have to die……Any society that refuses to be just and fair shall become a jungle where only jungle justice shall operate……… Indeed, majority of our killings were carried out in areas where there was strong government presence.”

Mallam Sale Bayero, Fulani leader and secretary Sultan’s Farmer/Cattle Rearers Conflict Committee boasting as he justified the massacre of the Birom people while protesting the arrest of the Fulani murderers in Plateau State of Nigeria, quoted in THE SUN NEWS of Friday, March 12, 2010



Dan Fodio
Some time towards the middle of the second decade of the 1800s (1815 AD or thereabout), Uthman Dan Fodio was reported to have had a scary dream about his Sultanate empire that he had just built. This dream was said to have saddened him that the empire he had spilled so much blood to build would only lasted 200 years. As a courageous warrior that he was, Dan Fodio was reported to have summoned the will to interpret the dream make this prediction abouthe future of his Empire.

According to informed sources as reported by Adewale Adeoye in The Nation of March 14, 2010, this fear of the realization of Dan Fodio’s dream was what informed the hurried movement of the Capital of Nigeria from Lagos to Abuja. The report said inter alia:

“The source hinted that in the 1970s, Northern leaders of Fulani extraction had met and resolved that the capital of Nigeria be moved from Lagos to Abuja, in anticipation of the prophecy of late Uthman Dan Fodio. He said the meeting was

propelled by the dream the then Sultan of Sokoto had that he saw his offsprings, in years to come, being requested to obtain visa permits before entering the Southern part of the country….”

There are a number of deductions that could be made from the above:

a) That the entire Nigeria was and is still regarded as part of the Sultanate Empire of Uthman Dan Fodio.

b) That this is why the Fulani have been exuding this arrogant attitude permeated with the “BORN TO RULE” mentality.

c) That this is why they have always ruled Nigeria as if we are in the middle ages and consider the wealth of Nigeria as theirs to dispense as they see fit.

d) That the recent liberation struggles in Birom, Niger Delta, and the rest of the South, west or east is being seen as the beginning of the end of the Sultanate Empire by the Fulani people

e) That the Fulani people have been scheming and preparing to get ready for when they would leave or be chased out of Nigeria.

It is this writer’s view that there is nothing wrong if the Fulani have to pull out of Nigeria to sustain and maintain the remnant of their Sultanate Empire. It would definitely serve all concerned very well. But this writer is not convinced that the Fulani would let go very easily, regardless of their palpitation about the dreams of Uthman Dan Fodio. They are going to fight hard. Anyone familiar with their trickery and how they subdued all the fledgling Hausa States one after the other, using Hausa masses against their kings would agree with this writer.

To this extent, I disagree with Lord Lugard that the Fulani (let us leave the Hausa ethnic nationality out for now), “has no ambition.” The Fulani has ambitions and great ones at that. The Fulani ambition is to always rule others whether they (Fulani) have the capacity to do so or not. The Fulani liked and still likes his empires, at least that of Uthman Dan Fodio has been in place before Lord Lugard ever was born.

It is this inherent ambition that forced the Fulani to develop the methodology to use religion to mobilize the Hausa critical mass against their own Hausa rulers and replaced them with blue-blooded turban-carrying Fulani rulers as Emirs across what used to be Hausa kingdoms. As time goes on, the Fulani sought ways to modernize its means of extending the frontiers of the Sultanate and refined its tool that was used against the Hausa Kingdoms in preparation for the conquest of the ethnic nationalities in Nigeria.

What the Fulani came up with was a different brand of what they did to the Hausa kings and empires. The Fulani concluded that because of cultural and religious factors, it would not be easy to use the critical mass of other ethnic nationalities in Nigeria to be able to supplant the leaders of these ethnic nationalities. So, the Fulani to sustain its ambition to rule and dominate, cultivated corrupt satellites in every ethnic nationality in Nigeria while politically annihilating the true leaders of other ethnic nationalities.



In 1957, during the heated battles for self government and independence, Sir Ahmadu Bello referred to Nigeria as “The mistake of 1914.” To correct this “mistake” a meticulous plan to dominate the future Nigerian Armed Forces was surreptitiously embarked upon while the British was helping out on the political front manufacturing Parliamentary seats for the North against the South of Nigeria. Thus, barely six months after independence, Sir Ahmadu Bello was able to say with confidence in the Daily Times of May 3, 1961, the following:

“I’m set and fully armed, to conquer the Action Group, AG, in the same ruthless manner as my grandfather conquered Alkalawa, a town in Sokoto province, during the last century.”

The writer would like readers to pay due attention to the words used by Sir. Bello, in this quote. He used the word “conquer” not "negotiate." Ahmadu Bello executed this desired conquest of the West as he had planned. Though, it backfired temporarily as it consumed him a number of years later, but the Fulani sentries in the Caliphate Armed Forces euphemized as the Nigerian Armed Forces along with its surviving civilian wing have adopted Sir. Ahmadu Bello’s method of propping up political, economic and religious satellites in all ethnic nationalities in Nigeria to be able to maintain control from Abuja, Sokoto and or Gobir, the birthplace of Uthman Dan Fodio.

It would be alright, if the Fulani could live with others as others are willing and prepared to live with them in Nigeria and other parts of West Africa, at least. In Nigeria, there has been more than 100years of evidence that various ethnic Nationalities have accommodated, loved respected and cared for the Fulani in their midst. There are abundant evidence that the Fulani have been treated as fellow human beings and accorded the same rights that the host have always enjoyed.

But it is very unfortunate that the Fulani has not had the same “live and let live” approach to other ethnic Nationalities in Nigeria. The Fulani concept of living is that others have to die, so that the Fulani may live. As far as the Fulani are concerned, other peoples of other ethnic nationalities are second rate slaves to be used, dumped, maimed, Molested or killed for the good of the Fulani man. The Fulani see Nigeria as his great grandfather’s inheritance to be toyed with as he wishes and as he wants. This attitude of Fulani makes him believe that he has to rule wherever he is, regardless of his comparative intelligence and capability to that of his host among other reasons.

Presenting a paper reviewing Paul M. Lewis’ book Ethnologue: Languages of the World, (16th Edition), to a study group in Philadelphia recently, Professor Wola Awoyale, a linguist at the University of Pennsylvania noted that the Fulani are recent immigrants in Nigeria, Cameroon, Chad, Benin Republic, Guinea, Senegal, Niger, Mali and Sudan. The Fulani symbol is turban, flag, alukimba, mosque and book. The Fulani are “a very creative” people who are often very “tight-lipped, silent and secretive” in their approach. They are very “mistrusting, calculating and patient.”

The Fulani are described as “cold blooded and ideological.” They are “ascetic, reclusive and tough-minded.” The Fulani places premium on the role of the mosque in its culture and this is why in all of Nigeria, a Fulani would not be a part of Jamaa (the congregation) where another man of different ethnic stock is leading muslims in prayers.

The Fulani language Fulfude with its variations in Fulah, Pulaar and or Pular are very highly priced. It is their weapon to discuss in secrecy and manipulate and carry out their machinations. The Fulani will freely learn the languages of others as a means of infiltrating them for economic, political and religious advantages while rarely speaking Fulfulde in the presence of others.
Re: 2015: It’s Either A Northerner Or No More Nigeria - Farouk Adamu Aliyu by bombay: 8:56pm On May 11, 2013
The Fulani establishment has been the driving force of our politics and has unequivocally set its agenda for the past 41 years.



Fulanis depart from a premise of greater entitlement to power in Nigeria than the rest of us. This attitude is inspired by racist-supremacist instinct similar to the Tutsi natural resentment of Hutu leadership in Burundi and Rwanda or the Tuareg rebellion against African rule in Mali and Niger from the 1960s to as recent as the mid-1990s.



The Fulani establishment could build alliances like ‘Hausa-Fulani’, ‘Muslim North’, ‘North’ or ‘Nigerian Muslims’, their game-plan has been always to secure Fulani supremacy in our polity. This politics requires that "external" enemies must always be found against which to define the common identity they seek to share with their chosen allies. Therein lies the danger of perpetual crisis in Nigeria.



And Fulani politicians are superior to their counterparts in the rest of Nigeria. Fulanis have been shaped by thousands of years of battle with the harsh forces of nature to be more clever, more canny, more aggressive, to have sharper instincts of survival and sense of perception. And our leaders do not understand them. Imagine fighting against an enemy you do not know well!



An example of our faulty perception of the North and Fulani politics is provided by the speech delivered by Chief Abraham Adesanya at the "first Alhaji Abdulrahman Okene memorial Lecture", organised by Gamji Members Association (GAMA), in Kaduna on 15 August. In the speech, which after a critical reading would make a Yoruba look foolish, the Afenifere chief said:



"You have invited me, the leader of Afenifere and leader of the Yoruba to be your special guest of honour. History will record that this is the first time in Nigerian political history whether ancient or modern when a descendant of Oduduwa will be honoured in such an environment so closely and so warmly associated with a descendant of Othman Dan Fodio."



Chief Adesanya speech writers elevated Dan Fodio to the rank of Oduduwa, placing a Fulani man who died less than 200 years ago on the same level of the mythical cultural hero of Yorubas.

They also chose an event in honour of Okene, an Igbira man, to seek dialogue with the Fulani power establishment. Yet Okuns and Igalas, both Yoruba poeples, have been living with Igbiras for thousands of years, far, far long before Fulanis first appeared as destitute nomads in our horizon.



We have overindulged the insensitivity of the Fulani elite and thus have emboldened them to act with impunity in Nigeria.



The Fulani Oligarchy has fought the popular clamour for fundamental changes in our polity almost to a standstill. The governors of the southern states have abandoned their call for state police, although it is the most logical solution to the problem of crime in Nigeria. On resource control, they have told us that people do not have any claim to resources for "merely sitting on them". They have cowed the proponents of a Yoruba traditional leadership institution in Ilorin with the threat of imported violence.



Yet against our loud protestations they have introduced an autonomous judicial space in Nigeria with sharia. And, to boot, they have a local police to enforce the Islamic penal code (Islam was the chief weapon in the Fulani conquest of Hausa country and culture, and their other fiefdoms in the North, and sharia amounts to an aggressive reassertion of the religion as the chief agent of cultural unity in the Fulani-ruled North and the Muslim North as a whole). They claim they have the right to practise their religion the way it suits them, but we have no right to adopt measures we consider appropriate to safeguard our lives and properties.



The Fulani Oligarchy in its traditional form is an outdated system that resists social progress. It is a system that inculcates subordination and acquiescence and these have come to characterise the society and polity of the Fulani-ruled Muslim North.



Nigeria will not move forward until the Oligarchy is defeated like in Cameroon. Yet we are disadvantaged in the battle against this force of backwardness because our leaders are too given to in-fighting, too self-centred, too prone to being satisfied with little achievements. Our scholars are busy fighting for better conditions of service instead of enlightening their people, our popular intellectuals are confused ideologues, our prominent social critics keep quite to avoid being labelled tribalists. Gani Fawehinmi is a tribalist, Professor Peter Ekeh is a tribalist, Tiv generals are tribalists etc. Fulani intellectuals and journalists use the label so often that it seems only Fulanis because of their facial features transcend ethnicity and tribalism.



Fulani supremacist politics is comprehensive. Their few newspapers have well-programmed content. Their few intellectuals pursue an ideological objective: the Fulani supremacy in our politics, and they are very effective in working for their race in Nigeria. They co-ordinate with their traditional rulers, politicians, top civil servants, military officers, both serving and retired. Arewa has successfully mobilised into its membership almost all the prominent retired military and police officers in the whole North. This kind of co-ordination is lacking in the South.



Bola Ige’s death marks a turning point in the struggle for a peaceful, stable Nigeria, free from the choke-hold of Fulani power supremacy. A general in this war has fallen and his demise has dire implications for the nation.



The message of Bola Ige’s death is that we must be ready to do an all-out battle with the idea of Fulani supremacy in Nigeria. We must stop shying away from a fight. Our politicians must seek allies in the North, we must undercut the influence of Fulanis in its regional politics. Our journalists must become conscious of this evil idea of Fulani supremacy in our land, our students must be sensitised to it. Our civil servants, policemen, military men and women, the whole of the civil society must be awaken to this obnoxious ideology of racial superiority. Only this encompassing mobilisation can defeat the Fulani Oligarchy which is the hinderer of our progress in Nigeria.



Fulanis are not invincible. Southerners must only stop lumping all Northerners together for condemnation for our problems. The South must reach out to the North. Kanuris and Yorubas, for example, are related peoples. All ethnological studies of Nigeria since the beginning of the 20th century have always pointed this out. Why can’t Yoruba intellectuals help to make political capital out of this? Why can Southern Christians not reach a strategic consensus with the Christian North, not against Islam but against Fulani-inspired political Islam?



Until the politics of Fulani supremacy is correctly recognised for what it is; a cancer in our nation, we will not be able to move forward.

For the Fulani hegemony perhaps more than any other tool, military governments have been useful in ensuring the reign of the aristocracy. As a book written by late Mr. Ikoku: Inside Out reveals, Ibrahim Tahir, one of the leading torch-bears of the hegemony, told late Ikoku in detention about his regrets over Shagari’s trumpeted plan to give the South a “presidential chance” which led to the Buhari – Idiagbon coup, to protect the “sanctity” of Fulani rule.

You come off as a slippery and hateful individual, with more than a passing likeness in character to certain ethnicities that traditionally despise Ndigbo with a passion; but to each his own! smiley

The Greatest mistake South-South will make is to go with the BIAFRA republic if eventually Nigeria breaks up. The same reason why the Hausa's could not contain the Igbos will be the same reason that may cause a civil war between Igbos and the South South. The S/S should start a Confab to form thier own government to rule themselves. Any mistake to inculcate the Biafras into the Ijaw republic will be the greatest disaster to the region.

I don talk my own o.
Wisdom well spoken!
You have my unflinching respect & highest of regards.

Don't mind these Landlockophobic Igbos preaching a SS-in-Biafra post-Nigeria. They want to create a NEW FORM of the problem we're all running away from. They just want it for the purpose of being a MAJORITY while they can be ABSOLUTE MAJORITY (it goes without saying) in their own Igbo repbulic.

I don't think you need a primary school intelligence to know that "IJaw Citizen" is a genuine Ijaw. He could even write in Ijaw. I don't really know why you can't get it pass you that there are lots of I jaws who will rather die than go into alliance with Igbo or Yoruba.

History tells us that the minorities of the Niger-Delta, especially the ijaws, usually allied themselves with the north to ensure they are not encroached on by the Yoruba and Igbo. The tide is, however, changing.

By the way, try to avoid insulting contributors because you don't agree with them . It diminishes your reasoning capacity and reduces your contribution to the ranting of a barbarian.

First of writing in another language does not prove absolutely nothing. IDK what is wrong with Africans cause I see people on here claiming "if you can write in another language, then that proves you are from there". WTF kind of logic are you people using? Do una even realize the century you are in might I ask?

First off, the guy under the ID can speak more than one language and have proven it. Wrote in Igbo multiple times during "I'm Igbo" phase, that does not prove his Igbo does it? Equally did the same under the "Ibibio ID" used his "alj_harem" to disclaim he cannot write in Igbo. During an argument between an Ibibio member on NL and Yoruba's on NL. He alj_harem, ID wrote in Ibibio and dared the guy to translate what he wrote forgetting he actually mentioned in that ID he couldn't write in Igbo. I have seen some Igbo members write in Yoruba, Yoruba members write in Hausa and one northerner (ndu_chuks) write in Igbo on this forum does that automatically proves this people are from there? Nope. Dude get with the reality, we live in the 21 century where people migrate and have interacted with others beside their own. Based on your comment, you are indicating that since my father can speak and write German, that automatically proves my father is from Germany or the fact I'm learning French and Spanish right now and my girlfriend is learning Igbo right now proves I'm from France and Spain/Latin America and she's Nigerian Igbo. The Igbo and/or Yoruba members that wrote in language beside their own, automatically proves they are from that ethnicity, Timaya (urhobo), Don tom (ibibio), GEJ wife (Ijaw), My best friend (ibibio) and 2face idibia(idoma)that can speak and some can write in Igbo automatically proves they are Igbo.

Huyu mtu, one_naira, mashaka asili ya kitambulisho, kwa hiyo mimi itabidi kuvunja bluff wake. Kujua jinsi rahisi ya kupata kamusi online, kuandika katika lugha ya mtu mwingine mshitakiwa hawezi kueleza kwa vinywa vyao ni plausible. (Swahili)

דעם מענטש, אָנע_נאַיראַ, ספקות די אָנהייב פון די שייַן, דעריבער איך וועט ברעכן אַרויף זייַן שאַרף. געוואוסט ווי גרינג צו קריגן אָנליין ווערטערבוך, שרייבן אין אן אנדער שפּראַך אָנגעקלאָגט מענטש קענען ניט אויסדריקן מיט זייער מויל איז גלייבלעך. (Yiddish)

Người đàn ông này, one_naira, nghi ngờ về nguồn gốc của ID, do đó tôi sẽ chia tay vô tội vạ của mình. Biết làm thế nào dễ dàng để có được từ điển trực tuyến, viết bằng ngôn ngữ khác bị cáo không thể diễn tả bằng miệng của họ là chính đáng. (Vietnamese)

這個人,one_naira,懷疑起源的ID,因此,我會打破他的虛張聲勢。知道如何輕鬆獲得在線詞典,寫在另一種語言指責的人不能表達與他們的嘴是有道理的。(Chinese)

Cet homme, one_naira, doute de l'origine de l'ID, donc je vais briser son bluff. Savoir comment facile à acquérir dictionnaire en ligne, écrit dans une autre langue accusé ne peut pas exprimer avec leur bouche est plausible. (French)

Nonm sa a, one_naira, dout orijin nan ID la, Se poutèt sa mwen pral kraze moute bluff l 'yo. Lè ou konnen ki jan fasil a jwenn sou entènèt diksyonè, ekri nan yon lòt moun lang akize pa ka eksprime ak bouch yo se posib. (Haitian creole)

यह आदमी, one_naira, आईडी के मूल संदेह है, इसलिए मैं अपने ब्लफ़ तोड़ दूँगा. उनके मुंह से व्यक्त नहीं कर सकते अन्य भाषा आरोपी व्यक्ति में लेखन, ऑनलाइन शब्दकोश प्राप्त करने के लिए कितना आसान है यह जानते हुए प्रशंसनीय है. (hindu)

Does this mean I am from any of the ethnicities above? Hell no.
Come into the 21 century with the rest of us before you are left behind.


Thank you for the exposition. However, you seemed to have missed the point. My belief that Ijaw Citizen is Ijaw is not predicated solely on his ability to communicate in Ijaw, I also consider other factors like his ability to interconnect the Ijaw language with English. You can't get that semantics on online dictionary. More so, his disposition and demeanour reflects something about his background. If he's acting , he is a damn good actor.

However, I believe it makes better sense for me to accept his claim to be Ijaw than your claim that he is not as you have not provided any evidence disputing his claim. Your claim is a mere opinion and should be discarded. As far as I am concerned Ijaw citizen is an Ijaw man and he's entitled to defend their interest.

By the way, what is your business with his ethnicity?

Thanks so much for that reply bro.
As always, I'd simple ignore all of them.
I am yet to start with them so they should be scared, REALLY VERY SCARED!

You see the length hatred can push someone to? I'd been laughing at his ignorance and still laughing. Only God can save him from where his hatred is leading him.
