It just natural situation, Hausa are the majority in the north and they got the skills therefore they dominate. It doesn't matter if they are the poorest or less educated. How about this- you people that claimed you are more educated and advanced why are the less educated Hausa giving you hard time. Everyday you people must cry of marginalization or one form of oppression by the northerners atleast. What quality of education or advancement is that?
If you are truly from plateau let me suggest something that will help you people. Your weakness is drinking. Minimise how you drink especially your men .You people drink alot particularly burukutu. This is one of your weakest point.

Wait oo, I didn't even see the part where you said Hausas have the skills. What skills do Hausas have? Mai shayi, Mai suya, Mai Ruwa skills? The Mai Aya, Mai Rake, Mai Albasa and all the manners of wheel barrow hawking? Which skills abeg.

You are not ashamed to claim that the people you are dominating are far more educated and living richer lives on average than you are.

FortuneDeGreat:
Igbo nation is an egalitarian in nature, we are far civilized to be made slaves of any monarchical bloodline, who has your monarchs help if not willful subjugation of its subject thereby inhibiting the full realization of its subject's potential, that is slave and master relationship where the former has no mind, thought and say of it own. We don't buy such here, we pride ourselves in nature's equality of humans and we believe that anyone can achieve greatness unhindered and such is very evident in Igbo nation. So you have no meaning point just as usual and typical of a bigot and myopic modern slave like you.

That's mistake you people make, egalitarian societies don't work. If it works ancient Greece would not have abandoned the idea. All the great and powerful societies have been monarchies with strong and visionary rulers, ie, Ancient Rome, Greece, Turkey, Spain, England, Persia, Egypt, etc.

Egalitarian city states are easily conquered and that was why the igbo villages were easily overran and taken as slaves during the slave trade.

Even though the igbo did not practice monarchy, it was anything but Egalitarian. Women practically had little rights within the family and society and there was the issue of Osu (slaves).

wirinet:

Omere, e do me like cinema. An Igbos man going to an itsekiri local government headquarters (actually my local government ) and spewing Biafra rubbish. Watin concern itsekiris with Biafra?

The report is as misleading as it is false. Looks like journalistic rascality. The report says;
Goveror Ifeanyi Okowa who spoke at the Niger Delta Peace and Security Summit held in Koko, and in the same sentence stated that;
The Delta State Governor who was represented by his Executive Assistant/Directorate of Orientation, Barr. Eugene. A. Uzum, stated

Who spoke? Governor Ifeanyi or Barr. Uzum?

Another annoying part of the statement is;
Nigeria will break up when South-South agrees to join Biafra.
Using when and not if mean the matter is a fait accompli, that the south south must join Biafra. That's the arrogance the south south tribes are always accusing the Igbos of.

The very last statement is stupid and meant only to evoke anger against northerners. Sounds like a statement from radio Biafra and not a government official;

So, the government is to provide jobs for the over 200 million Nigerians. How many people can the government hire? No wonder states like Bayelsa and delta are simply civil service states, with little private businesses outside oil.
The irony in the same people shouting we control all the business is Nigeria is the same people we cannot get jobs in government.

You just leave dem...dem go shock...dem think say we be bush people wey no know history...

Someone who has the antecedents of failure and ill administrative skills, someone who has further demonstrated these obvious flaws of incompetence and incorrigibility can not earn the trust and support of sane and reasonable people. Our non acceptance of him has nothing to do with his tribe or religion, after all we massively supported someone who share the same religion and tribe with the dollard. So you have no point here.

You supported him because he picked one of you as vice. And that diminished his chances a great deal. Next time he won't make such mistake anymore.

How is that possible when nobody is agitating for it? At least with Biafra, there is agitation

How can a Niger Delta Republic be possible when there is not one single organisation that is championing or agitating for this?

Its already hard enough for those who are agitating for Biafra, to even think of a Niger Delta Republic nobody is agitating for

See this one. Do you want to tell me nonsense? I speak hausa fluently and I know the Hausas, fulanis and Zarmawa who are from Niger republic. I can clearly differentiate them from Katsinawa, Kanawa or Zazzagawa, do you think I am a southerner who don't know the difference in Hausa accents?

I prefer Igbos to you stinking filthy roadside begging almajiri and illiterates. There are many bad Igbos, yes but the good, enlightened, social and progressive Igbos are more in numbers.
Show me any good thing Hausas bring to any where they go apart from baranci, almajiranci, Talauci, shan kwaya and all manners of backwardness.

I have gone through your profile. Naajjii, you are not a Hausa man. You are a Kogi man who has probably lived most of your life in Hausa land and by that you are now a Hausa wannabe.

I know your likes. But it's such a pity that you guys just choose to be slaves of fulanis just like that. Same fulanis who came together with Nupes and ravaged Ebira land, killing thousands of your people all in a bid to force you into islam. Same fulanis who forcefully humiliated the Attah of Igala by removing his cap when he went to a meeting with core northern traditional leaders.

No wonder you kept queit when I reminded you what the Hausa fulanis usually do to your people during religious crisis. Kogi, Nupe, Auchi, Alago and Yoruba muslims are hunted down and killed like rabbits during religious crisis in Kaduna, Jos & Kano, because your people are seen as fake muslims.

In Kaduna and Jos, you people run to we Plateau and Southern Kaduna christian indigenes for protection, in Kano, you run to Igbo domimated Sabongari for protection from your so called hausa muslim brothers, what a shame!

Naajjii:

Ha ha you are obviously frustrated. But why are you people always complaining north north knowing fully well that north is big and has more ethnic groups. Are you people in the south not the ones complaining the loudest ? Why is it that a Kanuri or babur man on the extreme north East is ok with an Hausa man on the extreme west , see themselves as brothers for most part ? But in your situation in the South an Igbo man on the east will always complain that a Yoruba on the extreme west is dominating and fighting themselves, we see alot on this platform. Kanuri is to Hausa in the north what Igbo is to Yoruba in the South. But they are United.
Yes am a Muslim, what about it?what is religion doing here, why can't you Make your point without reference religion? Islam has come to stay and it is fast expanding if that is a problem then am sorry you have to deal with it.

How on earth did you arrive in this kind of assumption by linking Igbo's with Yoruba? Or is that another strategy to introduce Islam in Igbo land? You left other related tribes that you should have mentioned and you're mentioning nation of ritualists.

Don't mind all these Hausa fulani wannabes. They have allowed fulanis to use religion to completely brainwash and confuse them to accepting inferiority to the caliphate. Very shameless race of people.

We in Plateau, Southern Kaduna, Taraba e.t.c will never submit to the caliphate or sing fulani or stupid and useless Arewa superiority praises. Imagine the stupid Ebira koto man.

Even indigenous muslims from Plateau and Bauchi tribes who have been heavily hausazined are still highly discriminated by Hausa fulanis let alone this Akpoto from Kogi state. @ Naajjii

Lol , this one is apparently frustrated. like I told you am still not convinced you are a northerner but it seems you are northern based, I get that Igbo innuendo from your post . Once again Hausa are the majority in the north so they dominate,that is not surprising, anywhere you are more in number you dominate.If you are less you become minority, the same Hausa / Fulani are minorities in Taraba, Plateau and they accepted it. Let me enlighten you a bit Most of those plateau and southern Kaduna speak hausa as first language, most cant speak their languages anymore because they adopted Hausa most of tgeir languages are going into extinction. It was not the caliphate that spread hausa that wide but the missionaries. Missionaries used hausa to spread christianity in the north. So if you got a problem with that go and engage the missionaries. Why didnt the missionaries use Igbo to do the same in tge south ? You tried to dominate the Niger Delta people it didn't work and now you are coming to me with that frustration. You ain't got no skill of governance buddy. You can labour a bit more to identify my race , you almost got it.

Yorubas are more organised as a unit than you guys na. I suggest you copy one or two from them.

Excaperx:

The today's definition of who a hausa and who a fulani is has become very obscured. Buhari for instance claims to be a fulani man, but he speaks no fulfude nor practices any fulani culture. He is a Hausa man culturally and linguistically. It's just like the fulanis of Ilorin who will say they are fulanis but show possess no fulani culture or language, they have been completely yorubanized.
Fulanis of the North-west have been Hausanized and hardly do you find any fulanis of the north-west without Hausa bloodline. You can mostly find pure Hausas in the rural areas of the Northwest. Otherwise most Hausa elites or middle class Hausas have been heavily mixed with fulani blood that they themselves can claim to be fulanis for prestige. That is the way it is in the North-west. The true pure fulanis are the herdsmen and fulani gida of the North-east.

You really don't know how the world works. This makes me think you must still be a teenager under your mother's roof.

Tutsi were the minority in Rwanda at the time of independence from Belgium and even worse after the genocide, but they dominated the politics and power of Rwanda since then till now, why?
This was because the Belgians saw the Tutsis who were of cushitic descent to be more civilized than the Hutus who were of pure Bantu ancestry even though both ethnicities spoke the same language. So, the Belgians left the Tutsi minority to be in charge of Rwanda. Of course I don't need to tell you that this was what led to the genocide.

Another example, in Indian administered Kashmir, the muslims have been the overwhelming majority, but the Kashmiri Hindu Pandits held all the power there because they were being favored by the Indian central govt of course because of their religion. If you know world politics and history, you know what later happened to the Kashmiri Hindus? They were cleansed from Kashmiri valley.

Lastly, in most Latin American countries, the overwhelming majority of the population are Mestizo/Mulatto (mixed race), but who calls the shots in these countries? The white elite class of course. This was the legacy left by the Iberian colonial masters.

So my friend, go and read a book. Political domination is not always about being a majority!

I do not even wish to be addressed as a northerner, so you can keep that classification for yourself. I am a middlebelter.

Did I ever argue with you that Plateau people speak Hausa very well? Yes we do, but we can never be Hausanized culturally or mentally because Hausa culture has been synchronized with islam and we are not muslims.

Talking about the spread of Hausa language in our region. They were many things that lead to this and not just the missionaries. Okay let's even talk about the missionaries. The caliphate and the British were the ones who forced the missionaries to use Hausa to evangelize our people.
The Sudan united missionaries who landed in Pankshin first wanted to use Angas language to evangelize our people, but the Caliphate/British coalition knew that if this happened, a new majority ethnic group will emerge in the North to rival Hausa fulani hegemony because all Plateau, Southern Kaduna, Nasarawa, Taraba e.t.c may start speaking Angas.

Slightly before the missionaries came, Hausa language had already started to spread in some of our areas due to trade. Bauchi tribes had already been conquered by the caliphate and we were their neighbours, so there was serious slave trade, salt trade, mat trade and other forms of trade going on in this axis and Bauchi was the link with the core north.

Hausa also has been taught in all our schools since colonial education. So it's not all about missionaries.

Yoruba and Igbo languages gradually spread among the minorities in the old Western & Eastern regions. This is why Yoruba language is very common among the smaller Edo tribes of Edo north and Igbo language was very common among the Okrika (Ijaw) people of Rivers.

Another factor is that Southern minority ethnic groups are larger than Northern minority ethnic groups, so the spread of a foreign language among the Southern minorities was more difficult than areas of the middlebelt like Southern Kaduna, Plateau or Adamawa where in some cases every village speaks a different language and has a different culture.

Lastly the British used the caliphate for indirect rule in the North, but such never existed in the south.

Imagine the whole of Southern Kaduna (except Jaba & Kagoro) was under Zaria emirate not until few decades ago. Did Zaria ever conquer Southern Kaduna tribes? Hell no, that never happened.
They wanted to force my own Plateau people under Bauchi emirate like they did to Southern Kaduna but thank God most of our tribes heavily protested and rejected it, hence they had to give us our own native authority.

Till today, the entire Southern Borno and half of Adamawa tribes are still under fulani emirate rule. When did fulanis conquer Buras, Marghis, Kibakus, Kilbas, Yandangs, Gandas, Kamwes (the Mandara mountains) e.t.c?

Fulanis only displaced some of them with war, but most of these tribes were never under any direct form of fulani rulership before the British came. In fact some tribes like Batta (Bwatiye) people who were displaced from Yola kept on attacking and regrouping to attack Yola and Yola was suffering serious casualties from their attacks before the British came.

So much injustice to Northern/middlebelt minorities. So don't come here to explain nonsense Mr man.

Yes in some cases political dominance is not necessarily influenced by population. But in Nigeria situation , it does to a large extent. Examples abound. If Hausa is the minority in the north no way it will exact such influence as it does today. Likewise if Islam is the minority religion in the north it won't influenced thinking and decision in the north as it current does. States like plateau, Benue where Muslims are minorities they can't influence alot of things.
You people keep complaining British gave northerners advantage over south politically.
The question is how long will this complaint linger, British left us for almost 60yrs now. What have you or you igbo brothers done to correct the imbalance if there was any? British left Nigeria with arm forces filled with top Igbo Senior officers as majority. Go and do research and see. That itself was an advantage , is is not ? You people failed to utilise such advantage. You stage a tribal coup , elimiated officers and politicians of other ethnic groups especially northerners. A revenge coup was stage later on as a pay back, who started it in the first place? So what are you complaining about, that northerners are dominating when you failed to use your chance or rather you created the situation with that unfortunate coup.
The examples of Rwanda , Kashmir does not apply to Nigeria situation. Yes Belgium gave Tutsi advantage but what happened after Belgium left?
Was the first and second president of Rwanda Tutsi. Hutu been the majority took power back and Tutsi became rebels and refugees in Uganda. Go and read more about Rwanda.Tutsi's Paul Kegame was supported by Uganda govt lead by Moseveni till date the support is still there and of course western Nations.
Also Organisation, mentality and boldness plays part in dominance. If all you about is money and materialism then by ready to sell your conscience and culture for money. Some people due to excessive quest for money and materialism they get bought politically, later they will turn around that they are being unfairly treated when in the first place they sold their chance.

nobody is begging anybody to join us igbos in biafra.

when the time comes, you guys will be afforded referendum forms to fill out if you guys are interested.

God forbid, Igbo people will use us as slaves, I'd rather die in Nigerian than be oppressed by the Igbos, they are snakes, the only reason Igbos need us in Biafra is because they want our oil and also because we have the sea ( note that the original Biafra of five Igbo states namely Ebonyi, Imo,Enugu,Abia,Anambra is landlocked while Delta,Cross River,Akwa Ibom and Bayelsa and Rivers have oil and sea.)
The Igbos are greedy and impolite people who speak their stupid language even when they know others don't understand.

Hahaha, good for you that you now admit that domination is not all about population. Wait, you are talking about Hausas being the majority in the north and dominating? The last time I checked, the fulanis and their descendants were the ones dominating and not the pure Hausas who have the largest population in the north. So, can I still hear you talk about population being the dominant factor of domination in Nigeria?
You better stop making a ridicule of yourself.

In Plateau, Beroms are the largest ethnic group, and have been so, since the seperation of Benue-Plateau in 1976, but they just got the chance to rule in 2007 through Jang, and with the way things are going, they may never rule Plateau state anymore, unless by luck.

Same thing in Taraba where the Jukuns are the majority, but they just got the chance to rule through Darius in 2015.
In Nasarawa, Eggons are the majority but never ruled till now because other tribes are ganging up against them sort of.

Indigenous muslims in Benue are almost non existent, they are like 2% of the state, only with communities in 1 LGA so it's not even a question of being a minority there.

In Plateau, Indigene muslims are like 10-15%, there are very many Hausa muslims but they are considered as settlers and their factor does not really play in the state politics.
Taraba is the only christian dominated state with a significant muslim minority.

Now I know someone like you will never accept that christians are actually the majority in Nasarawa and Adamawa states with about 60% of both states, but they actually are and I can prove this to you. Christians however do not dominate in these states because of some reasons.
At the time of carving out of Katsina state from Old Kaduna state, christians were actually the clear majority in Kaduna city and Kaduna state at large, and perhaps still the majority till now, but the political structure of Kaduna state was manipulated consistently to ensure that Hausas produce more senators, house of reps and house of assembly members in order to dominate the state.
This is where the issue of political structure to favour minorities actually come in.

Naajjii:

Yes in some cases political dominance is not necessarily influenced by population. But in Nigeria situation , it does to a large extent. Examples abound. If Hausa is the minority in the north no way it will exact such influence as it does today. Likewise if Islam is the minority religion in the north it won't influenced thinking and decision in the north as it current does. States like plateau, Benue where Muslims are minorities they can't influence alot of things.
You people keep complaining British gave northerners advantage over south politically.
The question is how long will this complaint linger, British left us for almost 60yrs now. What have you or you igbo brothers done to correct the imbalance if there was any? British left Nigeria with arm forces filled with top Igbo Senior officers as majority. Go and do research and see. That itself was an advantage , is is not ? You people failed to utilise such advantage. You stage a tribal coup , elimiated officers and politicians of other ethnic groups especially northerners. A revenge coup was stage later on as a pay back, who started it in the first place? So what are you complaining about, that northerners are dominating when you failed to use your chance or rather you created the situation with that unfortunate coup.
The examples of Rwanda , Kashmir does not apply to Nigeria situation. Yes Belgium gave Tutsi advantage but what happened after Belgium left?
Was the first and second president of Rwanda Tutsi. Hutu been the majority took power back and Tutsi became rebels and refugees in Uganda. Go and read more about Rwanda.Tutsi's Paul Kegame was supported by Uganda govt lead by Moseveni till date the support is still there and of course western Nations.

Yes, the British left, but the new nation Nigeria was founded on a foundation of injustice of the ills of the British and some of these injustices can only be corrected by war or crisis.

I gave you a clear example, till today, so many Northern minority tribes who were never conquered by the emirates are still under the emirates.

It was not until the 1987 kafanchan crisis, the 1992 Zangon kataf crisis and the 2001 sharia crisis that Southern Kaduna tribes gained their own chiefdoms. If not for these crisis, they would never have gotten this.

The British left the Northern protectorate as one region and divided the Southern protectorate into 2 regions to further divide the south. Why? Then lumped 75% of Nigerian minority groups under the Northern and forced them to be influenced by the caliphate in order to homogenize the Northern region, but never did this to the south. Even minority groups like Kogi, Benue and Kwara people who are purely yorubas were all lumped under the northern region in order to make it bigger and more intimidating.
To a large extent, these colonial definitions are still what defines identity and politics in Nigeria and you are asking people to get over this or correct it by themselves just like that?

Do not support the stupid politics of 'my fathers outsmarted your fathers, so it's your luck and you must live with the consequences or blame your fathers'. No.
Nigeria will never survive on injustice and it is up until a matter of time before it blows up affecting every one of us.
If our generation does not come together to correct these wrongs and ensure a more egalitarian society for our people where no one feels cheated or oppressed, then we will suffer the consequences.

You know what now that am begging to believe you are from the northern axis, i wont engage you in a hot way anymore because I truely understand the pains and struggles of the Christians minorities in the north. I thought you are one of tbose Igbos/ Biafrans here causing mischief. Am taking on those Biafrans because of personnal experience not that I hate them but due to the experience we had with them during Nnamdi Kalu. So you better stay off , let me try to understand these Biafra people more.

It's such a pity that nairaland has boxed the minds of people here to think everyone fakes an identity to make a point. Well, there are still sane people here.

You don't understand the pains of christian minorities of the north otherwise you won't be making the silly comments that you are making.

It's very obvious that you are from the middlebelt and you shamelessly go on campaigning for Arewa/Hausa fulani interests forgetting that when the chips are down, even you yourself would still be discriminated by these same Hausa fulanis.

And you see one thing you middlebelt muslims don't understand is that you guys will equally suffer from whatever problems Hausa fulanis cause in Nigeria... You guys are already suffering it more in fact, but your stupidity and slavishness to Hausa fulanis have made you loose your souls. Thank God for your Kogi state sha, religious crisis among yourselves would be very rare, especially among the Igalas & Okuns unlike Ebira land where muslims clash with traditionalists and kill themselves.

My ethnic group in Plateau state has so many muslims, infact half of my kinsmen are muslims, and they are very peaceful and non extremist muslims unlike Hausa fulanis, but do you know what? So many of them have been killed by religious crisis started by Hausas fulanis.

In many communities of Plateau, Southern Kaduna, Taraba and Adamawa, all the indigenous muslims have been chased out of their ancestral homes because of the problems Hausa fulanis caused! But go to Zaria, Kano, Katsina, indigenous Hausa christians are still on their ancestral lands.
In the 2008 Jos crisis, more Yorubas, Igalas, Ebiras e.t.c were killed in Jos than even Plateau indigenes. At first I wondered why, until I understood. This is because Yoruba Ebira & Igala muslims were attacked on both sides of the religious divides while their own christians were attacked on one side of the divide, as these people are usually like a 50/50 religiously.

Hausa fulanis who cause the trouble are only victims of one side of the divide, Igbos and indigenous christians are only victims of one side of the divide.

So you guys should keep on supporting Hausa fulani hegemony let us see where it will take you. Maybe by the time our entire region is engulfed in religious crisis/war one day and millions of middlebelt muslims are completely cleansed out of the region, you will come to your senses.
