Yes, maybe 1% or less as you pointed out.
The reason I created this thread is because of some comments like 'go and meet/talk to your ebonyi/igbo muslim brethren' in some other thread.i began to wonder cause I virtually have never met or seen an igbo muslim before so I began to wonder where those who made such comments got them from. That's how propaganda starts.
I even went as far as asking Igbos around me if they had ever seen or met an igbo muslim before and none has ever encountered an igbo muslim before.

short up! which kain northerner? unity baggar! we are talking about Fulani here.

Can you differentiate a Fulani from Hausa in Nigeria? Do the Hausa in the North even have Museums where their artefacts can be found?

That's what I want to know.

SAVAGE!!!

Like I said earlier, America is a meeting point of all races. It was a sparse island that was incorporated by different races. Even at that, communities which made the America country all have roots that can be traced to their countries which are mostly mono ethnic. The Korean can traces their root back to Korea, the German, french and British likewise etc. You could always find the cultural views of the Koreans by visiting Korea regardless of having Koreans in America. The Yorubas in Cuba Brazil etc can always come home (SW) and integrate themselves with the cultures they may have lost and so-on

This is quite different from the Hausa who were basically changed to something else, in their homeland. So, who helps to uphold these cultural values if all have been changed to religion practises? They don't even have some artefacts which can tell something about them. All have been lost!

America is quite different as it's the meeting point of all races. Besides, we have some who are still in touch with their identity over there. This is quite different from say, you're in your homeland yet became something else just because you happened to practise a certain religion. It's like the British destroying their queen's heritage all because they became christians. It's not done like that. It's quite stupid and a shame.

And the Arabs are quite one. They may have sub ethnics groups among them which is analogous to some sub ethnics in Yoruba such as Awori, Ijebu, Ikale etc but it doesn't stop them from being one. At least, majority of them are Arabs! No wonder they failed to open their borders to the fleeing syrians. Don't you think as the fore runners of Islam, they should be the first to accommodate the syrians in their midst? Yet they put their ethnics first and foremost above anything else, even above the religion they love to champion.

And pray tell what are the hausa cultures today apart from the Islam religion they practise?

Abegi.. The fact is Hausa have lost their identity and it's a huge shame! The fulani on the other hand has undiluted tribes of theirs in Niger, Mali etc, even some whereas we can't pinpoint who's exactly Hausa or not in their own homeland! What a shame!

diadem10:
Nope, your identity shouldn't take a back seat no matter the religion you opt. That's the fact!

As a matter fact, having your identity and heritage destroyed because of one religion is quite stupid and a huge shame! Even the Arabs drew clear lines between these two things (religion and heritage) as seen by how they were reluctant to open heir borders for the fleeing syrians.. These are folks who would rather preserve their pure bloodline than allow anyone to come in and taint it no matter his religion.

The British who brought in christianity didn't suddenly turn to another thing, just because they are christians. Even the Jewish haven't stopped being one.. Abegi!

Being a Christian or Muslim shouldn't erode your identity as a person. In fact, it's a shame and quite stupid to claim anything else. It probably means such person lack self worth and at the end of the day, it still doesn't stop you from being what you're!

And yes, the Hausa cultures have been destroyed! There's nothing you can pinpoint to show that this was their culture before they became muslims and yet, all these still doesn't make them Fulani 'cos Fulanis know their own. Even their previous Hausa king titles have taken a back seat which is a shame. I recall them finding one old pot artefact the other day yet the foolish ones in their midst went ahead to destroy it before we even know what was inside.

I just dey shame for them.

diadem10:
Point of correction, religion is different from ethnic! Your identity and culture shouldn't be made redundant because of whatever religion.

Away with such nonsensical rubbish!
