I've noticed this as well. But I always get confused , are the Hausa people same as Fulani? Coz everytime I see people who look like that, it either they are labelled Hausa or Fulani.

XhosaNostra:


I assume it's something similar to Khoi & San. They're often paired together but isn't the same thing, just similar. I stand corrected though lol.

Nowenuse:


Hausa & fulani are not entirely the same, but over the centuries, they have been heavily intermixed, that it is sometimes difficult to tell them apart.

Actually the ancestral cultures of fulanis and Hausas are completely different. Fulanis came from Senegal/Guinea axis around 200-300 years ago, while Hausas have been in Nigeria area for possibly over a thousand years.

The fulanis conquered the Hausas and settled among them, while the Hausas being a very large group culturally absorbed the fulanis in their midst. This bond was cemented with Islam... The British colonial masters radically promoted this bond to form the largest and most powerful group in Nigeria. They even used this bond to try to Hausanize/Hegemonize all the other northern groups like mine.... This is why Hausa language became widely used among 80 million or more people of different ethnic groups of northern Nigeria.

However, the fulanis who conquered and settled in the northeastern parts of Nigeria (Adamawa, Gombe) and Cameroon, largely retained their cultures because this area was filled with minority groups who could not absorb the fulanis unlike the Hausas of the northwest....

This is why only the fulanis of the north east are largely regarded as pure fulanis in Nigeria, these ones retain the ancestral cultures from Senegal/Guinea and even despise the Hausanized fulanis of the Northwest.

Also, the fulani nomadic herdsmen who are causing problem all over Nigeria are another quite distinct group too. These ones are largely somewhat pagan and I think retain the cultures far more than the former 2 groups who are heavily islamic.

It's quite a long history and story my dear.

However, one thing for sure. This so called Hausa-Fulani bond only exists in Nigeria... In Niger republic which is just next to us here, this doesn't exist. Hausas & fulanis over there are very distinct and independent of each other.
Infact, many Gambian, Senegalese & Guineen fulanis are usually confused when they hear of Hausa-fulani as one group in Nigeria. In their end of West Africa, it is nonsense to them and does not exist. They do not even know what Hausa sounds like or looks like. While over here in Nigeria, fulani language may soon go extinct to Hausa...
So many fulanis can no longer speak fulani but all fulanis can speak Hausa.

It is obvious that yourself and XhosaNostra are South Africans.. I remember you specifically from that 'Kenya is better than Nigeria thread'

Do you mind some questions on your people and country? There are some things I'd like to know.

Ameera(bride) is a Fulani girl from Adamawa state, she was my classmate in the university

Crixina:
bro, please try to understand statements before you comment.
But just in case you honestly misunderstood me, we are on the same page here, the society we live in today is pro nudity, you have to dress in a certain kind of way to be called beautiful and classy. My statement up there meant that the bride is the definition of class and beauty contrary to society's definition of those two words.

Comprendez?
