Some people are like that. Just to proof to some that not all Hausas are Shekau.

Village man. Better go apply for the job of a village masquerade and stop wasting your talent of clannishness here. You think your little rants and that of your kinsmen will stand in the way, you dey dream. Like it or not, the unity of the country is nonnegotiable.

shogosco:
AND?

Anyway, was the first bike man a christian?

if no ...it's normal

Cuz they were brothers!

Sometime today I took a bike from Mararaba junction heading to Aso.
We've covered about 40% of the journey when I heard the "click click" sound of a broken chain. The okada guy stopped,inspected the bike and advised me to take another bike as his can't make the rest of the trip.

After a while, one okada guy came along,I waved him down and asked him to take me to my destination.
I informed him that I bargained 100 naira with the first dude so they should negotiate the price.
The first dude asked him to take 60naira and give him 40naira since he(new okada guy) will cover most of the distance.

The new okada guy just looked at the broken chain and said something in hausa which neither of us (both of us were Christians and southerners) understood.

But from his gesticulation I deduced he was asking me to give the whole sum to the first okada rider.
I demonstrated to him to be sure of what he meant and he nodded in affirmation. I was puzzled at this act of kindness and generosity especially because it was geared towards a different religion and tribe.
Thereafter,the Hausa,muslim okada rider took me to my destination without charge.


I put this little story up here to make you tribal and religious bigots understand something; Nigeria is not one,that may be true. But the division is not across ethnic or religious lines.
The boundary is between the thieving elites and the suffering commoners.
That's why an Akpabio will be supporting a Saraki.

So before you throw jabs at that man because of his religion and tribe,understand that he is also a victim of the situation.

I don't judge people based on tribe and religion

Eintelekt:
How did that gesture affect you as a southerner?
All these one Nigerian southerners ma sef!!!
You did not get to your destination free of charge...its not like you paid 40naira to the first guy and the second guy carried you for free. You still paid the complete fare as you'd previously bargained.
This new bike guy helped his brother and you are here rejoicing that he helped a christain.
It was a contract my friend, and you were supposed to get to your destination on the agreed fare.
People just need to study their rights and understand what it entails.

I stay up north as a Christian from Enugu, and it's a common knowledge that northerners are more considerate to others. Nevertheless, religion seems to be their major short coming, but beside that, they are a simple, down to earth people. I consider myself a Northerner having being given birth here.

Some good igbos can really be good if you are fortunate to find one, but not the idle ones who from the stable of their caves who invade this forum as termites to create instability. Wonder where these ones come from. These are the greatest hindrance to peace and we must collectively stand to oppose them. Nigeria will be great again.

THIS IS THE ONLY SENSIBLE COMMENT ON THIS PARTICULAR POST. the second okada only favoured his brother, just too tribalistic of him!

Dottune:
Very true.... Hausas to me are the nicest tribe in Nigeria.

I remember a story one of my Big bros told me when he went over there for his service. He and his friend went to their market, he wanted to buy potatoes of N200 worth, when they got there to buy it was like half a bag for that amount and they felt it was too much and tried to buy just N50 worth. The Hausa man selling it said it isn't possible, but instead he gave them for free. They are very kind....

The only thing I think is wrong with Majority of Hausas is "Ignorance", that's where the issue of education sets in, because they can easily be brainwashed into believing crap.

Western Education should go along with their Islamic Education

DedeNkem:
You're a very stingy person. Why didn't you give the last okada money, to at least extend the goodwill?

Spending 200 naira is nothing. Wow! Unbelievable!

God bless u for ds bro! I appreciate people who have a cosmopolitan view on the issues that bedevil us as a nation. Sometimes I wish God will make most Nigerians to be born outside their state of origin or comfort zone because just like u, it gives u a balance view to life than tribalists in here who have only seen Kaduna, Enugu or Ibadan on TV and cant find it on our map. It makes u see d Igbo, Hausa, Yoruba man as first a human being before d "my brother" syndrome we have ds days dt hasnt gotten us anywia!

This reminds me of a corper who only "knew" of d existence of Borno state when he got posted there! He told me he had to go check the Nigerian map to find where it was....

If only we can unite nothin can stop us!

Mogidi:



Lets get this straight, because okada man carried you for free means there's no tribalism in Nigeria?

I would have taken you serious if you were posting this from boko haram stronghold of Gwoza or Maiduguri.

"No Surrender" to Hausa/Fulani, never.

raymondzack:
What of those killing others all in the name of religion wey dem promise virgins in heaven

Xtracoool:
OP nice story. But let me quickly point out that this story cannot be related to the tribal and ethnic divisions in this country.
You see, OP, you simply stopped a good man (The second bike man). That was it, nothing else. I have seen an igbo man turn on a fellow igbo man; a yoruba turn on his tribesman.

It's a touching story tho.
