Why was he exiled in the first place? You can't start telling history from the middle.

Built2last:
Igbos cry Everytime that they are marginalized but think of the Hausas that Fulani came in and conquered. The Yorubas may serve the caliphate politically but the Hausas are the real slave. For what history tells us. Foolanis are visitors.

Hausas sacrificed everything to the Fulani.

Fulani is a minority tribe in Nigeria but very vicious and domineering.

HeyCorleone:
Truth is those with basic history of Nigerian societies presumably from the 1800s would understand that this present country wasn't meant to be. Lord Luggard just fvcked things up for us.

The jihad is still on now,very soon the fulani will conquer the whole Hausa and middle belt inclusive

And he eventually met his death in the hands of the Tivs... He killed by the sword and he died by the sword..

Shame to the Hausas,the most spineless, weakest & slavish tribe of all, generations after, yet they remained too doomed to take back what is rightfully theirs. What a shame

KingGBsky:
This is where the Islamization right all began. Now they want to take over the whole nation with their son Buhari in helm of affair

FakoMaybach1:
@seun @lalasticlala you guys need to close this topic....This is not the right time to spread this history about fulani domination. These write ups usually fan the embers of war and Nigeria will end up like Rwanda

It is a matter of time before hatred of fulani spills into the streets in the south and blood starts to flow....The past is gone, we only need information relevant to us and this is not part of them

You might not agree with me, but no one will read this without bearing hatred for the fulani tribe, if people are interested in history they can find and read up on this part of Nigerian history

@seun do not promote hate

Basic123:

How has yoruba served the caliphate politically?

Igbo and North are known to be political allies since 1959 until 2015 election

Asquare84:
Op. You need to add how the jihad was stop in benue state because usman dan fodio has already hosted his flag in the Atlantic ocean, thank God for the corregous effort of benue warrior if not the whole of Nigeria would av been islamise. How benue manage to stop the jihad is a whole topic for another day

seniorkachion:

The op you quoted is very correct. You are wrong with your own assertion. It is the Yoruba that has been in alliance with the Fulani since 1965.

gmoni2:


why can't they do the same in Guinea, Sekou Toure nearly wiped all of them in Guinea. they can't try all these shit in Guinea, the Mandingo's and susu will slaughter them..

Strech:
which capture are u talking about again? They have capture the whole of Nigeria. With their son as the chief of arm forces.

Naaseer01:
lies lies lies

Dan fodio fought Hausa rulers only when they attack him first (for self defence)in order to stop him from preaching the true teaching of Islam which was diluted at that time by the Hausa King with Idol worshiping like tsumburbura and barbushe idols in kano. and that's is what Dan fodio fought against. he was attacked, his students killed, their wealth burnt down by those rulers just because he preachea against mixing Islam with idol worshiping. and that is when he took the action of self defence.

he did not fight to rule totally but to ensure true teaching of Islam and fought against those tyrant rulers of that time who are dictators and oppressors of their subject. that is even why he get support of local Hausa people there.

Note : any other reason you would get is fabricated by the enemies of Islam. if you want to know shehu Dan fodio , go and read his book and what he teach. and you will know the true reason why he fought those rulers. and yes the entire nigerian Muslims are happy he did because if not we would not find a true Islam as we did today

PLEASE, WHAT IS THE MORAL LESSON OF THIS STORY?
