In addition to Fulani and also Songhai (Zarma) who were very active as well. The problem is that most Southern Nigerians don't know the history of their northern counterparts because they spend too much time kissing Oyibo man's rear end.

In fact, I'm willing to say that more Fulani and Songhai were a part of that army since you can find Songhai and Fulani in both Niger and Mali. Mande are mainly in southern Mali

Zarma?? Who calls them that?

grin grin you don't see me kissing anybody's behind

Yh but were fulani already at Niger by the 8th century?

You do not have any idea of what technological advancement means. you don't know who you are. we are a billion light years ahead of this whiteman's or european tech you are so facinated about.

No joke with your elders sister. however just work hard on your own pending the time.

Black people come in different hues and different features, they must not all look like lupita nyongo!

This is one of the ways the whites use to rewrite black history, by creating a monolithic image of how blacks should look, while at the same time wanting us to believe that the Scandinavians and the Italians are of the same stock, despite obvious morphological differences between them.

Lol. The guy is my doozy but he's going to start claiming that you hate Fulanis now.

I remember I used to go on Fulani threads and laud some of the culture. But the day some chic must have created a disingenuous about Fulanis' reach and political prowess in West Africa, and how I countered them as pure lies. And that apart from Nigeria, Fulanis don't really hold much weight politically in the region.

In Guinea where they're the overwhelming majority and almost twice the population of Mandinkas - they're ruled by Mandinkas. Ditto Senegal where the Wolofs run the country. Etc.. These are based on facts. And I gave it to Mandinka people. Since then, ol'boy has been calling me a Fulani hater. grin grin grin

Yes western Niger, they speak a different dialect similar to the Fulani in Mali.

The Songhai have many subgroups (Zarma and Dendi).

So you think black people are monolithic? They are black. They may not have your stereotypical what must southern Nigerians call 'Bantu' looks. However, you are honestly not going to say they are black:



They can easily pass for a Fulani or other Sudo-Sahelian groups

well all blacks don't look the same but berbers look too different from us and am nt jst talking skin but hair and facial features, I used to wonder why Africans would look like that.
I've seen a couple Tuaregs and they don't fit my definition of black, they aren't pure like Bantus and other major West Africans maybe due to too much stay in the desert away from the tropics and green forests but why the less black in the skin

And how black are fulani? Compared to Wolof and other sub-Saharan Africans
Can u post good pictures of wolof? let's see the difference

I don't think u would agree but I say fulani have mixed with berbers (who I don't consider to be blacks) in the past to produce the many stock of fulani we see today or could it be because you are from the far ends of the Atlantic coast?

How exactly are you 'outying' me with false testimonies? If you were to say Fulani have only been in Nigeria since the 1700s you would have been correct.. What you don't realize is that Fulani people were on other parts of west Africa (especially Senegal, Mauritania, Mali, etc) way long before arriving in Nigeria on Camel and horseback.

The whole admixture stuff is and was bull crap as most White scientists have admitted. Sorry that we all can't look like Bantus like you would have wanted. However we are still black.

The admixture talk was just whites trying to claim Fulani people.

I don't think the bolded is correct. There is a record of Fulani scholars from Mali coming to Kano and passing on to Borno in the time of Sarkin Kano Yakubu Dan Abdullahi Burja (1452 - 1463). I'm looking at a reference right now from 'Sudanese Memoirs' compiled by R Palmer.

I've equally encountered records that the Torodbe clan (from which Usman Dan Fodio came) have been in the Sokoto area since at least the 15th century.

Fulaman,

Make sure you post the Fulanis' ajami script cos all the groups involved in Songhay empire had that script. That was the script they used in writing all the books which were destroyed in Timbuktu's library by the Moroccans. The Hausas have that script. cool

Muslim invaders were not stopped at France, they were stopped at the gates of Vienna. And you talk like the muslim invaders just came and met empty land. what happened to the Visgothic kingdom who were already christians and jews, did they not attack them? abi was it beg they begged them before they started ruling them. pls google "arian christianity". And Jerusalem? have you forgotten what Abu Ubaydah and Khalid ibn Walid did? what about the Rashidun Caliphate's siege? Freedom of religion my foot! pls define the term "dhimmi" for my fellow nairalanders. *note* your ancestors would have being polytheist so you wouldn't even qualify as a dhimmi. Best wishes.
The Muslims were stopped in modern day France in the "Battle of Tours" by Charles Martel, so learn history well before you come here!

Abu Ubaydah and Khalid were the Companions Prophet Muhammad, they defended the Prophet when the Byzantine Empire wanted to wipe out Islam!!! What is Rashidun Caliphate Seige?!! !! Please explain further!!

Arian Christians have nothing to do with you, this is a Non-Trinitarian, which is attributed to Arius! They don't believe in trinity, but only God just like we Muslims!

The definition of a Dhimmi is a non-Muslim living under the protection of the Muslim state. The Prophet Muhammad said "anyone who kills a Dhimmi shall not smell the fragrance of paradise(he is going to hell)". The superb Caliph Umar Ibn al-Khattab on his death bed stressed that Muslims must protect and not oppress the Dhimmi. Dhimmis could be Christians, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists, Idol worshipper, atheist etc. With this in mind, let's compare the conditions of Jews in an Islamic State vs Jews in a Christian State?! please show us the difference, be sincere!

Everything is always delicious on paper, that is until you have to taste it. ISIS and boko haram are right now going back to the strict dictates of mohammed and Islam by killing whoever does not agree with the Muslim faith. That was how it was back in the day and it was legitimized by the quran. We are supposed to move forward not retreat back to archaic tenets. I don't know about you but 10 to 15 people determining the fate of thousands of people is not democracy. I presume you went to school; was that how democracy was defined to you?

moving forward has nothing to do with religion that's why I say dump dumb religions like christianity and Islam and free Africans from useless and unprofitable Arab and European culture and beliefs

Well, in time you would see. This generation has been classified as the luckiest generation. Why? we are the generation that will witness what is about to come down.

i'd love to boost more about my very black ancestors and the Elders.

The sun is about 93,000,000 miles away from the blackman's earth(this one), Do you know or can you believe that we can reach the sun in just 93 minutes? not just that, we would enter the sun, probably refuelling( i don't know what they are doing there YET), and then come out again fresh and no stress. One thing i do know is there is no fire without firewood or kerosene or methane.

Do you know or can you believe that the purpose the blackman made internet is for what is now happening here on this tread?

About the list? do you think we are 100,000,000 years old people? go back home and talk respectfully with the chiefs of your clan, they may reveal the truth of the universe to you, if you deserve it YET. it looks like you don't YET.

The mathematics that was used to build just the pyramids 9000years ago, the over hyped europeans can't still solve it yet.
There is a tile plate in some place in india, a perfect square with a radius, none can solve the mystery yet; yet it is not a mystery. GOD himself or herself is not a mystery.

I stand corrected then. Yeah the Toroobe are the Fouta Toroo Fulani from Senegal. Usumanu Bii Foduye (I'll refer to him as that since Usman Dan Fodio is a Hausanised version of his name) does hail from the region

Whiteman or europeans or the non-blacks never made a thing on their own. not even an eraser or a trouser. till today, they are incapable of doing so why? GREED. Greed is the first nature of the pinkman. All prototypes of everything was made by black people, the whiteman just patent them in his name.
Philip Emeagwali -supercomputing or the large-scale parallel processing of data which was responsible for the birth of internet was made by this man (the whiteman deceived with him launching the internet), so enjoy the internet like your daddy made it.

Henry i. Sampson- responsible for what made the cell-phone work today. enjoy ping and pang or pong just like your uncle made it. but do not forget yourself than you already have.

Gabriel Oyibo another super black man. but guess what, people like you call them crazy, like you do you neigbour probably because he looks broke.

They have eyes but cannot see, they have ears but it only attracts the saint of fiat paper money.

final task for you. I would like you to count approximately how many blacks are there on this planet. we are 1 billon 8 million. we may be less, but not more. yet the whiteman says we are overpopulated. don't be foolish.

Theory means not proven.
