I was in Kano sometime ago and observed that the average Hausa person is easy going, but don't take it for granted as that gentleness can become volatile in a moment. And that's mostly because they have a strong sense of communalism and will collectively rise against anyone they think attacks values/culture they generally share in common. These include their general religion, their emir and their political leader. More like a herd mentality (and I do not mean this in a negative or condescending way).

Even outside their region, they see themselves as one and distinctively different from others. For example, in Lagos where Igbos, Ijaws, Efiks, Ibibios, Urhobos, Tivs and other tribes can live in the same community with Yorubas, Hausa hardly mingle with others. If they're not living in barracks (cos the breadwinner is in the military or paramilitary), they're living in a Hausa quarters commonly called Sabo in Lagos (E.g. Sabo Ikorodu, Sabo Yaba, Sabo Agege).

They don't even mix much with some Yorubas that share religion with them. Instead, they have their own Hausa mosque in Lagos and only Hausas gather from all the vicinities in the area come there to worship. Politicians in their religion often exploit these cultural nuances to their advantage and that's why they easily dominate national politics in Nigeria

Na lie... They show off to each other .materlialosm is high there hence high rate of divorce

Good point! Hausas are very accommodating. that's how the Fulani's took advantage of their kindheartedness to dominate them, subjugate them and drive them out of their lands. I like the Hausas .... I don't know about the Fulanis tho.

You still dey learn.

Come to Obalende and see how Yoruba and Hausa mingle well.

Idi Araba, Agege, etc..

Your observation is right! The Hausa-Fulani muslims don't even consider Yoruba muslims as real muslims. That's why I laugh each time I see some of those braindead Afonjas thinking that the Fulani herdsmen are only going to attack Ndi Igbo when they start their full scale invasion.
Take it from someone who knows, if that time comes, they would try to exterminate the Yorubas first before turning on Ndi Igbo.

Their herd mentality is what we yoruba muslims call 'sophisticated politics'. Our leader Tinubu has identified that education is a problem that will impede herd mentality, so he has ensured that education and literacy is destroyed in yorubaland especially Osun and Oyo so that our people can becomes zombies (the herd mentality you talked about) and he is succeding as our yoruba states are now doing very poorly in WAEC and JAMB than Borno and yobe. This is the sacrifice we have to make so our yoruba leaders and their children can be 'politically powerful' and 'sophisticated' while the common yoruba man become almajiri lesser than hausas in nigeria.

1 Hausa packaging of goods are unequal e g tomatoes

2. North is not predominantly Hausa

3. you can't get Hausa Fulani girl to date they are married of at early age

4. they treasure their language more than English our lingual franca bar turenchi

5. doubt if they believed HIV aid exist

Ka gama ko? What of free/government money (Kudi banza), political power (siyasa), Kabilanci and averagely more honest than other tribes? Malam Baushe kena!

Babu karya a maganarsa madam. Hausawa are d mst wonderful pple to assct wit my dear. So that, siyasa, kabilanci, kudin banza is everywhere! karki rena mana wayo

you forgot to mention that they are good at welcoming and harbouring anyone from Niger , Chad into the country as long as the person can speak hausa, and if you do not understand hausa and you speak english to them as a stranger, they will say Ba Turenshi! and ignore you, you didnt also mention that 3brothers can use one certificate to secure FG job using the same name ,
oh , hausa man can load tomatoes on fuel tankers from north to lagos and Road safety officers will not see him but carry a pipe on your bus you will be arrested

Nigeria Army unused land belong to Hausa speaking people and they can build whatever they want there, selling weed and metal scraps , if you are doubting me, go to lafenwa in abeokuta , they even have military boys on uniform staying with them, fact even as i speak now
also when you have a baby , either you are 12years old or less, you are qualified to have a voter card and vote

also, as a hausa man, it is proper for you to move around with dagger but for any other tribe, its à crime. lol

What about population explosion?? that should been included. Telling us Kano is having the highest population in the country.

It is better for you people to be answering Igbo than Igbo.

Hausa people are more accommodating than any other tribe in Nigeria , no wonder u found pack Igbo people doing business without any form of intimidation..

Postingdayinfo:
You might be wondering who and what they are?. But the best way to study any member of nature’s community is to visit its home.

Let me prepare your mind before you read further; you will be reading both the good and bad part of the Northerners (popularly called Hausa) as observed by me, an outsider.

okay, let’s start our funfilled journey into the badlands. These are things I observed during my stay in the north, among the Hausa people;

1. Tolerance

The first thing that amazed me about Hausas during my first day is how slow they are to anger ― with each other especially.

“Mallam, kada kada!!” meaning Mr., Small Small (or easy). That was what I shouted at the bike man conveying me to a destination. He almost hit an oncoming bike. I thought the encounter will result in fists exchange as I have seen in the South and West. To my surprise, the only words they exchanged was a greeting with the smile.

This repeatedly happened in all of the same occurrences I witnessed.

2. Subtle Begging

The first day I saw this well-planned begging style, I was repairing my phone with a Hausa man. A lady with make-over (many of their girls always wear make-up), enters saying greetings to the man. The man gave her N50 and she dipped her hand into a bowl carried by a small boy, bringing out something that looks like beans cake. Oh! I forgot to tell you, there are about seven lads trolling behind her. You still don’t get it?! The children are what they call Almajiris.

She prepares the beans cake (look-like) and distributes the equivalent of the amount of alms she receives to the children. This is a case of using the money to make money.

3. Hardwork

Another way these important tribe in Nigeria caught me off-guard was their business methods and how they try to earn a living. Before my visit to the north, in my thought, I divided the three important tribes in Nigeria based on what I think they are proficient with and in.

Yoruba (Education), Igbo (Business), and Hausa (Farming).

To my utmost surprise, northerners are lovers of business as much as Ibos ― if not more industrious than Ibos. They do any work available with awesome customer service. Their children can be found selling different things ranging from sachet water to chinchin. Seeing the hustle spirit in these kids makes me realize you can survive anywhere, anytime without depending on anybody.

4. Extremely Dominating

I experienced a mixed feeling of surprise and confirmation of my suspicion when I discovered this no. 4 in the Hausas. They are not easily dominated, but they love being dominated. Just like the park of wolves where everyone wants to lead but always bow to the leader chosen.

Whenever there is an argument, they are always in support of the person who appears dominating irrespective of who is right or wrong. This is however different in an instance where a fight ensues between one of them and an outsider; they support their own.

5. Free Feeling Expression

Irrespective of who you are, they always voice their feeling(s) about you, to your face. Maybe that is why they have fewer gossipers ― come on! I wouldn’t know.

I've noticed that this website dishes out trash every single day...

Hausa is one of minority tribe in Nigeria in terms of population but the 'Hausa language' is being concurring and dominating many other languages across west Africa.
Fulani are the most populous tribe in Nigeria, and they are speaking Hausa as their official language.

Hausa Christians are the best citizens in Nigeria. They are the real tolerant ones

shut up and get some experience newbie. You can't tell the true colour of a chameleon by first sight!
Your entire post shows you are indeed a new comer who hopes all is well.

Well u entitled to what u think but to us our name na Igbos not ibo.

BruncleZuma:


1. The yan-daba did not appear out of thin air someone patronises and uses them.
2. That is not subtle begging ogbeni that is a business and the white thing is called masa
3. You have a limited view of the Hausa with regards to business everyone is a businessman in his/her turf.
4. The hausa-fulani invented systemic racism if you don't know what it means Google it.
5. You know the word guluma was not invented by error...

Bros just add masters of deception and your list is complete, the OP knows next to nothing about the Hausa.
