Thats why your yoruba brothers in Kwara hate to be associated with you. thats why you were the easiest people to enslave, maybe its because you were weak, or just utter buffoonery. thats why until date, you just dont understand how these things are done. lok at you, proud that your people have been plummeted and sold all over the globe....smh.

btw, arabs never enslaved any hausas, hausas you find in saudi today migrated there, no records of any such events taking place.

Tell me a people in the history of humanity that were never in one stage of their history enslaved by another.

Im waiting for your response.

There are many things you dont know about your culture. It proves my point that your enslavement was total! Nothing was left of your culture.

You need to go and ask your elders about their mythical Queen and the python and what it means in Daura antiquity. Instead of reading Arabic book that preaches jihad and 73 virgins everyday, start reading books written to teach you your historical past.

There are no virgins waiting for you in heaven. They arr all here on earth.


ahuuut up you blind foool! the python guarded a well in daura, until it was killed by the so called bayajidda, we never worshipped the python, nor held it in any high esteem, go back to school!

please, where did you get this story of 73 virgins from? Quran or hadith?


i have to say, all this is pretty rich coming from a sh.itstain.

Says someone who comes from the most enslaved race in the world. If a dna test shows that 80-85 % of slaves in the US are either Igbo or Yoruba, my guess is yoruba's outnumber Igbos, but where are the Hausas you claimed to sell? Looool! You are a clown! Songhais never took hausa slaves btw, but the hausas states were one of the major exporters of slaves back then, so you and your inferior minions must have suffered, it's nothing to be proud of, but that's just the truth. We chained your people, and sold them like we'd sell cows or horses, cause back then to us, there's no difference.
Lol. But when we start listing African Americans with yoruba ancestry. .people on this forum would attack saying yorubas were of little numbers. .

While the truth is, Yoruba were unfortunately taken as slaves by Dahomeans and sold to Europeans to be taken to the Americas


You still can't match the horrors the Alaafin's Eso snd Ibadan gave you northerners. .
Hausa and fulani still make up a large number of slaves that arrived in the US and other countries

I have never denied that, you guys are truly professional slaves. one would argue that slavery is all youre good for.


And where is the evidence to support this socalled large number of hausa or fulani slaves? hausa states even though never united never sold each other, it was the sort of situation where i can punish my brother but if you touch him i will beat the living sh.it out of you, ask the Songhais what kebbi did to them, incase you didnt know, the songhais won kano and katsina in war and forced the king of kano to marry the daughter of their king, shortly after that, Kebbi, decimated them.

what made things worse for you is that you were dis organized ans so close to the sea, they just have to pack you up like sardines and off you went.

Lesson on African Culture.
Pay atteention!
Animals, birds, reptiles and so on are central theme in African customs and anthropology. Anywhere they are mentioned, they serve as object of veneration. Particularly when mentioned in connection with a royalty. It serves to portray heroism that the Queen confronted a super power and slayed it. Its similar to the slaying of the dragon or the eagle or a fierce beast.

In all cases in Africa where this is true, the animal itself gains prominence and attains followership.

Hausa is African. So to tell us the custombof Africa was not practiced in Hausaland would expose your lack of historical and customary perspective; either that or again, your subjugation and rnslavement was total that nothing of your cjlture was preserved. In either case, both outcomes attrst to what i have told you in past six posts.

I'm well versed in ancient hausa religion. Worship of animals was never practiced in Hausaland. Again just because some Africans did it doesn't mean all Africans did. That's just stu.pid. The serpent was slayed to gain access to the well, that was it.

Why was your Queen the one slaying python if the whole purpose was to access well, was she fetching water at the well, why is it a woman, Queen for that matter....slaying reptile, were there no men or was this act meant to portay greatness?

If i follow your argument so far, Hausa was the exception to everythinf else that other Africans experienced.....whether slavery or customsand culture....but look at how an ordinary muslem cleric called dan Fodio routed entire Hausaland and decapitated your kings and sold your people to the Arabs.

Dan Fodio attacked Kanuri and thr repelled him. He went to Nupe and wiped them out but today even the Nupe people have their own traditional customs and beliefs separate from Islam. He went to Borgu and wiped them out and even the Borgu culture exist till today and in parallel with Islam.

Where is Hausa culture and your seven states?

Yoruba still has its seven states till today, never uprooted by anybody and never changed dynastic chain.

How can you compare a society completely wiped out and.decapitated with an Empire that wipes others out?

You have no sense.

Now, since you have failed inspite of repeated invitation to bring your history and greatness into focus for review...i say whoever opened this thread was not a friend of the Hausa north. They meant to ridicule you on the internet.

Hahahaha! Charlatan! Bayajidda was a man dumbo! Not a woman! grin

Plus, all seven hausa states still exist, don't know what you're talking about.

And what do you mean hausa culture has been wiped out? Smh! The Hausa administrative system remains, Hausa culture is still 100 percent intact, don't know who told you it isn't! No one stays true to his culture like a hausa man! Heck! Even the traditional religion still remains intact to an extent. We try to stay true to our unique tubali architecture, we stay true to our marriage customs and rites, so what exactly do you mean when you say hausa culture has been wiped? As a matter of fact, go to all these places you mentioned, they're all slowly abandoning their culture for hausa culture! So exactly Which aspect of it is wiped out? You are an utter buffoon!

Go and read a book!

You didn't have any organized writing script, the Arabs introduced Arabic to you.
And what is Tubuli lol, every group in Africa have their way of building things, the question is.... is it awe inspiring enough to garner international reputation .....

So, if your religion is against sculpting, where are the ones you sculpted in your pre-Islamic lives

the nok art has been credited to hausas by most, though i dont want it. hausa accepted islam early in their civilization, the first recorded islamic jihad fought in subsaharan Africa was fought by the hausa king of kano Ali yaji dan tsamiya, the battle of santolo.

The hausa tubali architecture is unique, it is also worthy of note that the first multi story building in africa was built by hausas, the gobarau minaret, what about the gidan rumfa? if you want to see more about the beauty of tubali, google it. what was your architecture called? what did it look like? a rat hole? bad joke...


just accpt that you were primitive backwards people and if it wasnt for the brits youd still be the same , thank your british slave masters for having mercy on you,.

Nok art is just plain crude art that gets its recognition not from the genius behind it, but for it's age.

Another lie.
The earliest Jihads in West Africa are the Almoravid raids into Mali and Senegal conquering in the name of Islam, not some battle of santolo.
Infact, the Serer and Fulani established Takrur islamic in the Senegal river valley predates anything Islamic you have in Hausaland. Not to mention that as at the time of the earliest Hausa converts, only a tiny proportion of the ruling class were muslim, the majority of the population masses were still practicing their Hausa traditional religions. And they didn't build anything remarkable of their own doing. Even Usman dan Fodio noticed the crudeness of the average Hausa as at the 18th century when he was around.

Good Lord, why do you love Lying so Much.... It isn;t even the oldest in West Africa, talk less of Africa.
The timbuktu mosque predates it, and so do many other awesome taller structures in Africa such as Great Zimbabwe.
And there is nothing unique about Rubali....lol, it is a subset of the general type of building that is common in the Sudan savannah Zone, even Ivory Coast and Ghana have similar structures within their countries. such as the gur buildings of Larabanga and bolgatanga.
Like I said, every African group have their ways of building based on their lifestyles, you build urs based on your climate and I built mine based on mine.

really? im still wondering where you guys were during all this grin, the ability to convert the arabic script and use it as ours for our language is an achievement itself. you sure as hell couldnt!

loool! im sure were not! believe that at your own peril.


As at AD 700, shortly after the rise of Islam Itself, Yorubas were already making master pieces of Art, while your people were busy doing God knows what .... We entered the atlantic slave trade because of our coastal location near the Mid Atlantic, Nothing more.
Even the Fulanis in Guinea and Senegal were sold in the Atlantic slave trade in great numbers, which goes to show that it more of a function of location.
Even primitive Pygmies were never sold as slaves, because of their location in the congo forest.

Slaves to Whites, Slaves to Arabs and Finally, slaves to Fulanis..... describes the contemporary Hausa man perfectly well.[/size]

Yes basically everybody enslaved you....
Read about hausa slaves in the Americas.....
Where are the descendants of pygmies in the new world or Arab world.... what is the average height of their offspring...lol.... stupied person.

Read for yourself, Silly thing....


The slaves sold by Oyo were from four different sources: 1) native criminals, who were not so numerous, 2) war captives, who were the majority 3) slaves given in tribute by vassal states, such as Dahomey, who were not so many, and 4) slaves bought from Nupe, Borgu and even the Hausa states and Borno, especially in the late 18th century. Adams (1786-1800) refers to the large numbers of Hausa slaves for sale at Porto Novo

like i said, your brother shot himself in the foot, he gave me the means to destroy hi, this is what i got from the article he linked

Well before the jihād, Hausaland was tied into the slave trading network of the Oyo empire. Robin Law observes that enslavement of Oyo citizens did not become common until after 1810, with a consequent aggravated instability of the kingdom. Before that time slaves were obtained from outside, with a great expansion in the 1780s of trade in slaves purchased from the north. He concludes that any political consequences should be sought in Hausaland rather than in Oyo

nice article by the way mate. scholes0 macof


In conclusion, we can present a composite model for the Sokoto jihād which includes three dynamics: the religious ideology espoused by the jihād leaders, the aspirations for social equity of the Fulani and Hausa peasantry, and finally the economic interest of the northern long-distance traders, particularly those specializing in slave trade.
The dynamic of large state formation is long distance trade. As I have argued elsewhere,86 the trans-Saharan trade gave impetus to the formation of empires in the West African savanna from the 8th to the 15th century (and longer in Borno). The Turkish occupation of North Africa in the 16th century put a damper on trade heading for the Maghrib. So the Songhay empire died and had no immediate successor. The Atlantic trade, especially from the 18th century, gave rise first to coastal empires and then, as its impact was felt further inland, to the jihād states. Oyo was the most important empire to rise in response to demand for slaves on the coast. The Alafins controlled the routes from the northern supply zones to the coastal ports. The Hausa traders, after a risky collection of slaves in war torn Hausaland, had to surrender their profits in tolls passing through Oyo territory. So they supported the Ilorin rebellion.
The ongoing jihād conducted by the emirates of the Sokoto federation was a systematic slave-gathering operation. Most slaves were absorbed internally. But it is no accident that the Sokoto jihād began at a time when the promise of a rich slave-exporting economy looked brightest, and that the extremities of the jihād farthest from Sokoto were on the one hand the slave grounds of Adamawa and on the other hand the outlet routes controlled by Oyo.
Unfortunately for Sokoto ambitions, just as its hold on the North was consolidated and Oyo destroyed, leaving no major obstacle to the sea, European demand for slaves ended. So the Sokoto confederation confined its attention to the North and the Sahara until trade in other commodities sparked its interest in the Atlantic once more.

although the fact that hausa states fought and enslaved each other is disappointing, though the slaves were sold locally. Thank God for the fulani jihad for uniting these states and bringing back justice and equity.
