Yes, Sanusi went to African International University in Khartoum after ABU I think.


BTW, @Namfav, I'm just curious, and you don't have to answer;

Do you have close family members in government? I mean in politics or maybe in top Civil Service?

Family as in Father, Mother, Uncle, or close siblings.

I ask because the few Notherners I know who go to school out of Nigeria hardly work, and they get their parents to pay their fees. Now, those parents are mostly top civil servants or Politicians, Not the same for most Sotherners that I know.

Are your parents in Private business as in Agriculture, banking e.t.c or you just work and go to school like most southerners?

thanks

Son, you must be having a laugh!

You have been severely mislead. If it is not too late, I hope and beg you that such level should not be your aspiration.

Al Azhar is NOT one of the top universities in the world. If they did a list of top 1000 universities in the world, Al Azhar will not be anywhere near the list. You have been completely misled.

Because a university produces some few exceptions does not mean it is a top Uni.

Al Azhar will not even be able to compete with the LondonMETs and likes in the west, talkless of the top unis.

Northerners don't hustle in UK because of the high dichotomy between the rich and the poor in the North.

- The poor are too wretchedly poor and illiterate (can't speak English) to even afford to go abroad or see the point.

- And majority of the ones that are rich are kids of contractors and civil servants that can have exceptional resources to be there without working.


you won't find northerners send family overseas to only suffer it is totally rare and not because family are rich but because most of us believe that you need to atleast have enough to start somewhere else, you find some southerners that go overseas with only their bags and visa that is incosiderate, those who do not go outside are not poor and illiterate, many have things to settle home you cannot leave your home leaving it in a mess you clean your kitchen first, as i said we are family orientated, there are things that we consider and family is first unlike some individuals who put hustle first it (most not even refugees), has nothing to do with a gap between rich and poor in the north

Sorry!

If families are not rich how can they afford to send family members overseas like London and live in posh areas?

How can they afford the £2000+ pcm posh flats or family house in Marble Arch, Paddington, Bayswater, Edgware road, Finchley etc for one child that I have seen with my eyes?

Where is the money coming from considering that the average senior military/civil servant's salary and allowance cannot be more than £20K per year and majority of these kids abroad are from such families?

Even French or Spanish senior military/civil servant cannot afford to send their kids to London with such funds. How come some Nigerians (a third world country) can?

Don't be disingenuous bro, your folks down south did not drop down from Neptune, they are human beings who make rational choices like any human anywhere on earth. People don't just wake up one morning and start walking towards the border or airport without thinking, leaving family, friends and familiar things behind. Migration is not an easy decision for most human beings anywhere.

All of our people are generally family oriented and you can observe that easily, not just among people living here in Nigeria it is obvious also through the billions in remittances sent by those who live abroad.

Most of the folks who travel out do so because they see little to no economic hope where they are or believe there are better opportunities elsewhere. There are poor folks who can't even afford to move to the nearest city talkless out of the country. Economic migration has been in existence since the beginning of time. it is hardly a spur of the moment decision for most human beings.

You might think Northeners are more contented with their state in life and therefore don't travel out of desperation, but it's obvious that is not the case, a lot of our poor and desperate Northern folks can be seen in Libya, Sudan and several Arab countries too, I posted a video a month ago showing Nigerians caught up in the bombing in Mistrata Libya, many of the folks in that video are Nigerians from the north.

I think most Northern Nigerians living in the west are from comfortable and educated (western education that is) families and are therefore more westernized than the average northern poor. I think most of our less comfortable, less western economic migrants from the north tend to hustle in the middle east, North Africa, basically countries with similar religious and social customs.

Of course the rich ones from both regions can live or travel anywhere they like, money is a language and a culture on it's own, it can survive anywhere really. Ask them at Debs wink

i did not say all, most southerners are family orientied its in african culture, but some of them put the hustle first, sometimes you find a man going to the west leaving his family behind that will almost never happen with a northerner maybe there are rare cases but not that i heard off, the average northerner simply does not put money ahead of family

how did it become that there are many many southerners in europe, america etc.? was it after the civil war, to be honest the business of forged passports is not a northern thing someone who goes to such measures does not care about family

most northerners in the west being of a western education? the fact is many many northerners who are well off do have another education apart from a western one (most of the time and sometimes you find others who have gone to universities such as khartoum, al azhar etc.), northerners do not need a western education for guarenteed success

Don't say that.

There are several Northerners in Lagos who are there to hustle and have families back in the North.

Majority of the Northern gatemen are alone in Lagos but have wives back in their villages.

That is no different from going to the West.

The reality is that these alternative education is inferior to Western one as it is less intellectually rigorous.

You cannot compare the capability of someone that attended Al Azhar to one that attended Stanford University or London School of Economics.

If there is nothing like quota system in Nigeria and things are simply based on merit and ability, then most of the people with these alternative education will not be able to compete.

Yes, Sanusi attended this place and is extremely intelligent (probably the most intelligent Nigerian I know of today that is not me  cheesy), he is an exception and he attended this institution after a solid Western education grounding.

But for every Sanusi that you produce from this alternative education stream, one can produce 20 Nigerian graduates of Western stream that are successful or world leaders. Better still, they are successful in a competitive market, not a quota system market.

The point is that the alternative is inferior to the Western one and, on average, the graduates of the alternative are academically inferior and will struggle, in a fair competitive environment to compete academically or intellectually with the Western graduates. This is evident in the scientific and philosophical advancement and superiority that the Western educational system demonstrates.

Even going to the Arab world, they require a lot of Western trained expatriates to run things.

But you see I have absolutely nothing against em hausa/fulani bruvas and I do not give a rat's a** about debs and who spends the most there- Hausa govt folks or Southern fraudstas. I just want to correct auwal's fallacious yan that only hausa babes from Kaduna and Jos are liberal enuf to be on a southern bruva's d***. I got my 1st degree up north and I saw things. Pure fulani babe from katsina, father-big shot as usual, had a special liking for south-west bruvas especially. Shorty was on my **** till graduation. Beautiful babe I must say.

Namfav, kabba, murtalaa nd indeed everyone here, what y'all should know is that with the return to civilian rule, 'that' class of nigerians has increased in size and diversity. This I believe is the reason for the excessive bad blood shown by some folks up north who are by now experts in working the hapless masses. There should be absolutely no bad blood in this post.

you cannot compare what happens within africa to what happens outside of africa in this regard, different things, leaving home to another african country is less of a risk than going outside, it's just common sense, it takes more to go outside than to stay inside

dude stop the western education thing, it can take you to a certain distance but not all the way, one cannot settle for a western education, it does not make prospects of a good future better, the richest man in africa does not have that education, it is safer to have 2 types of education in this world anyway, western education is not everything, i just realised it becomes a waste of money if you can't compliment it, western education is a mixture of many things, yes including islamic sciences (algebra, chemistry, biology etc. are all from the islamic golden age)

Do you sincerely believe that ^^?  wink wink grin.  Is Nigeria the only place you have Fulani and Peuls(Mali) etc in West-Africa? I hope you realised that the majority fulani are in Guinea Conakry.  it's no big deal let alone self delusional wink. Take a trip to Niamey(Niger) or north Cameroons too, maybe you'll come away with a different viewpoint. If you desire wholesome Fula woman, you'll be better off going to places you'll have more choice. Their number in Nigeria is relatively insignificant and not exactly as attractive as people you are most likely to encounter in other West African countries. Trust me on that grin.

your post wasnt directed at me, but the person in question specifically claimed the girl was pure fulani from katsina who was also a big shot's daughter.

abi na yaradua pikin im wan claim?

in his dreams perhaps.

he should first explain how he even got close enough to see her, abi was he the gateman at her house.

he didnt even say fulani from kwara, adamawa or lagos, he said katsina.
