LMAO! Is this what they told you gullible lot in the south? LOOOOL! I swear you people are like sheep!

First of all, Ganduje is a fulani man.

Secondly, all the emirates he created were handed to fulani men, mostly children of the former fulani king of kano ado bayero.

Stop bringing an ethnic war that doesnt even exist into our midst. Why are you people obsessed with seeing hausas and fulanis divided? Thats a pipe dream, let it go.

But I think Sarki Gaya and Sarki Karaye are descendants of indigenous tribes who became hausanized.

Ahmadu Bello was a great leader of the North.


He built many schools, constructed many hospitals, roads and a university. He also encouraged girl child education.


If the subsequent leaders after him had acted like he did, the North would have been a better place.
you don't know the sardauna.
Him and zik are elitists,they believed the the British social order of aristocrats vs commoners,alhajis vs almajiris.
Awolowo is the only one who believed in prosperity for all.
That's why the igbos prefer mi okpara over zik.
Even ojukwu over zik.
Zik and sardauna are both fools.
Sardauna's ABU Zaria is for elites if not he would have given the children of the poor free education but rather he hated awolowo for campaigning to the north with free education just like kwankwaso hated gej for the same education for all almajiris.

You misunderstood the man. Ahmadu Bello, like most of his contemporaries were pioneers who didn't have the luxury of learning from the mistakes/successes of their predecessors.
Most of his policies were carried out after arriving at a comprise between his native conservative muslim aristocratic background and the emerging liberal European-like egalitarian societies.


Ahmadu Bello had a vision to see his people dominating the leadership positions in the new country and he worked to achieve this goal. He sent hundreds of Northern youths abroad to study in British universities, enlisted many youths in the Military, recruited many into the civil service, invested in industries for his region ( Arewa Textiles in Kaduna and Funtua, Bacita Sugar Company and Many industries in Kano) promoted peaceful co-existence among the diverse peoples of the North. It should be noted that religious crisis didn't occur under his administration.


There wouldn't have been Boko Haram under the Sardauna. He appointed a learned Sheik Abubakar Gumi as the grand khadi to harmonize religious views with a central authority, making it easy for regulations.


In his formative years, he never lived in Southern Nigeria and viewed people from the South with a veiled contempt. He was a regional leader who initially didn't believe in one Nigeria and made no pretence about it.
He asked for secession for the North in 1953-1955.

Unfortunately, not all Nigerians can be or think like you.

All over the world, it's the elites that rule.
