95% Yorubas Are Muslims.

Kai 95% ai madam wanan is exaggeration. Be realistic the Islamazation is not yet complete. The Muslim Yoruba could probably make up 70% of the total population.

Who is an Emir?
According to wikipedia, an emir is a world used to describe a leader in an Islamic Empire.

Who is an Oba?
An Oba is a ruler in a yoruba Kingdom, a flag bearer and preserver of the yoruba culture.

Judging by the above definition of emir and that of Oba we can say a muslim Yoruba king can answer the title emir and Oba at thesame time. when the king adress himself as an emir he is stating Islam he represents him first before every other thing.

Your statement that a Kano emir will not calls himself oba is correct. It's makes no sense for an emir from Kano to adopt the name oba. why would Sarkin Kano adopt oba titleship is he a Yoruba or does Oba means an Islamic King

Emirs/Kings from ADAMAWA AND Gombe are adress as Lamido which means (Fulani King, in Fulani language) and another Emir of Kano whom is Fulani by ethnicity cannot be addressed as lamido but only as Sarki (Hausa King).....why would Kano king adopt oba ( A yoruba kingship title) when he can't even adopt lamido title ( his mother tongue Rulership title)

Be specific of why you are irritated by the action of an Oba preferring to be called emir (Ruler of Muslims, Representer of islam) . I also think the new emir is trying to complete the Islamazation of his kingdom that his great grand parents started and that what you should be mad about, Because know you yoruba Christians are making it seems like ethnic matter.

(1)Emir is not a Hausa or Fulani word, heck we don't even don't even called kings emirs rather we call them sarki or lamido.

(2) Islam the religion which you Christians yoruba hate with passion, Hausa/Fulani don't introduce it to you people. Your people find it yourself and you yoruba enforce Islam on your own people.

You people are frustrated because the new emir praises Northern Emirs and wears northern traditional clothes, That the only thing he adopted of hausa and is something less to be worried about. You should worry about more yoruba Christians and tradional worshippers are becoming Muslims (through the influence of yoruba muslim claric and yoruba muslim kings)



Please You christians should stop making unnecessary fuss and involving we Hausa/Fulani/Kanuri in your own problems

the king is still an Oba and is an emir aswell he can be both so please let him be.

FFK is just Frustrated he-goat, insolent bastards like FFK should be dealt with for insulting an emir.

If this FFk is from the north it's people that will kill him, burnt his house and probably the emir will be the one to save.

It's safer for him to called a sitting governor a bastard than to use such word against a king.

Allah yaja zamanin emir

You are welcome.
Which state are you from? Does Jikan Baura mean what I think it does?

Fulfulde is very interesting . (If you have the interest)

Do you like this?

In case you keep wondering, Ngaoundere is the capital and largest city of the Adamaoua province of Cameroon.
Traditionally, it is supposed to be territory belonging to Aliyu Musdafa in Yola.

Wow beautiful songs , Fulfulde is really beautiful language, I have grown up around Fulfulde speakers but unfortunately i haven't listened lots fulani songs maybe 2, mostly because their aren't many Fulfulde singers from the northwest even when they do sang in Fulfulde they often only add words or some phrases. Anyway i observe tho the languages are different they style and pattern in which these musicians sang are very similar to how we sing hausa and fulanu music here in arewa.

Knows about the Adamawa region of Cameroon, also heard about garou, marou and some hausa quarters which i can't recall exactly their names. How is fulani relationship with hausa in Cameroon, watch adam zango a hausa musician performance at Festi Housa Cameroon on his instagram page and later search them facebook and find they have a page Called Festi haoussa, they had great celebration and i could easily pick many Fulanis aswell but it's titled first Cameroonian Festi Hausa 2017 so i wonder why for all years hausa have never called for Hausa festival until 2017. and it's was organized by one Ali Bashir whom claimed he himself is Hausa-Fulani

I so much like this song.

By the way I'm from Kebbi state, far end of north west Nigeria. What do you think my name means?

Any Muslim king is and can be emir their is not.

All Northern emirs are Muslims hence they are so united , also the least hausa we do is mock our past history that's for fun ... Christians oba will never have peace with you... Emir you made a good moves.


Anyway, we hardly call our Sarakuna emirs You can still chose to calls him oba, is not like he ban the name

Wow the lyrics are more beautiful than i imagine, i had always wanted to have a grasp of what he waa singing and now i do tanx for the translation.

Yoruba are Hausa best friend ... We share culture, families, Islamic religion, we share political ideas with Yoruba , before and after Islamic caliphate to today's democratic government.

Fulaman198:
ROFLL it's more like, mi hofni, barka be julde, mi hofniiii barka da sallah, zoriyya santi, Mo Allah himi! You didn't do badly lol. The song as you suspected is a mix of Fulfulde and Hausa. The Artist himself (Babajo) is from Cameroon.

Ooh i really thought the singer is Nigerian love his song , his style, voice had me converted the video to audio. Funny people i know find it awkward and funny when they caught me heeding to song. Lol i most admitted it was but i too much like the song and so decleared it my favorite fullo song, It's beautifully sang you know , the song kinda makes me want to learn fulatanci

Some of my homeboys mockingly suggest i should relocate to rugga for it's the best and quickest way i could learn the language ..... Tells them i will just do that if that's what it takes to be fluent in fulatanci.

Fulaman I will appreciate it if you could post or link me to where i could find more of Babajo songs.
Thank you .....

The first song is my favorite fulani song

Ummi'hufni barka da sallah, zuriya hajji mu-allah himmi
ga hajja addo.. addo gaddaratti , jitalo isah alaji isah santi... Lol hope i got the lyrics right. wakar sai tayi kamar wakar bukin aure?

GoddessQueen:
@pagan9ja I am a Black American who recently discovered that my mDNA traces back to the the Fula people. I found one of your posts while trying to learn more about ancient Fulani religious beliefs and customs and wanted to connect with you to see if you could point me to resources that would help my exploration.

I apologize that this is off topic. I am brand new to this forum and don't really understand how to send a private message, or if this platform even allows for that.

Pagan Naija is a fraud and knows nothing about Fulani people.... He is not fulani and his knowledge about them is 1% , if you really want to know about Fulani find a true fulani son or daughter, this pagan has nothing to offer because he knows zero , again the guy number enemies are fulani your people

He is a pagan and pagans wherever they are in West Africa they they don't even want to hear the name Fulani due it's synonyms to Islam (Religion of peace)

Be proud ... Your fulani people are the must honest, bravest ,Funny, intelligent people in Africa

Only after Hausa my ( My tribe) beautiful you be
extra cautious on this forum only we Hausa are fulani true lovers only known pagan hausa i supposed to say

These is how a car manufacturing plant looks like.



Show us vehicle plant not a gigantic homosexual car garage.

I found this song lyrics very rear, Hausa songs that are compelately dedicated Hausa race, civilization are extremely rear to find, For this is the only hausa song i know that sang about Hausa people , Our civilization, The Hausaland culture and tradition , Native professions, cultural games in Hausaland and that's we will never ever gonna dump them

, Made mention and praises hausaland leaders of both native Hausa and none native hausa and how we will never forget them for the great contribution they made.

He also Praises and applaud Hausaland most influential islamic leader of all time .... a Fulani man ( Usman Dan Fodio and how his jahad success was joyful to all.

The singer also talk about how well known hausa were in ancient Africa for their thousands years great civilization, How blossom hausaland economy was , Hausaland litracy, Educational system, how we are west Africa's greatnest merchants, have crossed West, East
North Africa and Middle East for trade and pilgrimage,
Made mention of how we were never known by any people to rum nake because we knot our own clothes.

Do anyone here knows the original singer of this song, because this singer from Kano is diffinately not the originator of the song lyrics (maybe some part of it) because as kids we used to sang Chorus part this song in school, ask my step mom (she's in her 50s) if she knows the originator of the song but said she knows the song from childhood but can't say who first sang it.

When do you come to know this song and

How old do you think this song is ?

MitrikDenholm:
You can derail or be condescending all you want but you made a very ignorant statement i felt was necessary to correct and so i did because whether its 3 years old or 10 years old it was on the first page and will live on for others to see. Hence the need to call out falsities. There is nothing here to discuss because that statement is completely wrong. Oh and stop trying to tell me about my own people or history or geography, i know a fraud when i see it and you and your mates have been saying a lot of dumb things all over this thread.

Dude continue with what you are doing, every wrong and false statement made about Hausa when you came across it, distorted it when it's when necessary whether it's a 3 years old or 10 years old topic. I'm new to this forum and having came across some thread about hausa alots of people have been passing misconceptions, misinforming people about everything Hausa and they got away with it due their are probably little hausa to expose their wrong information.

People from different countries and continent visit this site and alots of them have been taking lies made intentionally and those made out of ignorance as information that's is fact.

That guy is probably amongs many clueless people , with Little or zero knowledge us about but act smartass passing wrong information about Hausa and north. Hence he don't want his lies to be uncover ..maciya amana.

Hausa Hausa Hausa......Little Hindi.... I'm leaning French

LaEvilIMiss:
I suspect most marriages of non-fulani to fulani's especially the hausas.. are purely for political purposes

Can you explain ?

Yeah they do that in a lot of their festivities and sometimes just for show, for money in markets mostly.

IF THAT YORUBA BOY IDRISS AJIMOBI GOT FLOGGED WELL, HE WOULD HAVE BEHAVED HIMSELF AROUND FATIMA GANDUJE IN PUBLIC FUNCTIONS

Lol I 100% agree with you, But unfortunately even the rural fulani no longer practice sharo nowdays no man is flog in other to get a girl hand in marriage atleast in Nigeria.

From what i know sharon Fulani has more to do with bravy not marriage, sharo can be carried out not just in the advent of marriage and it's only done when the girl got many men suitors, then sharo flogging is arranged by the bride family as competition when their daughter have many suitors ,for them to determine who is the most brave much endurant , who ever won the competition is decided as her feature husband and that's even if she don't love him. Sometimes the women persuade the man they love to participate , their also cases where thier lovers quit even before the competition. some parents have their daughter married to her lover even if their many suitors and

The sharo thing is not a marriage thing, it's only done when the need arises , hopes i make sense

watch as ipobians invade this thread

My people the must Beautiful of all Africa

All igbos i met speaks hausa

Argue with one ogochku he claimed their are 10million igbos in northern Nigeria and i said that's means their are 10million igbos hausa speakers. Cuz in my life im yet to meet Igbo that doesn't comprehend hausa language. Oguchuku drop to 3million

Doom befall Jegawa Kebbians hates Dangote guts, He will not succeed on bringing his rice plant tO Kebbi A'a farmers won't sells him their land or rice.

You guys should stop celebrating DANGOTE.
A hated monopolist like DANGOTE is doing nobody a favor hence he deserve no praises from Nigerians.

This dirty monopolist cancelled his company's plan to go build a suger processing plant in Kebbi state just because our farmers refused to sell their sugercane farms but their harvest súgercane to his company. The
must irritating thing and disturbing issue was that the thief wanted to buy each hectare of súger cane for 100k thief joke

The Greed idiot will not dare to seek we sell him our farms for we had taught him a lesson for wanting to take our people land , Kebbi state doesn't need his rice investments so Bleep him and his wealth we already has WARCOT and LABANA RICE Plants and those can serves our rice demands we don't need thief company.

Cocolatti:
@ Sasalite, am happy to know that there's someone like you (Hausa Christian) on this forum cos this JikanBaura fellow and some of his kind have argued with me on another thread and vehemently denied the existence of Hausa Christians. Please don't waste your time and energy on him. I am from Southern Kaduna and have a Hausa christian friend and another as in-law(married my aunt).So I know a lot about the persecution, discrimination and even apartheid treatment meted out by the Hausa muslims against Hausa Christians. I I've known for a very long time that some Hausa muslims like JikanƁaura find it difficult to accommodate the fact that a fellow Hausa identify with Christianity rather than Islam. Hence they always deny the existence of Hausa Christians.

Who is a bahaushe? A bahaushe is person who ethnicity is hausa, even if you live all your life in Hausaland and speaks only hausa language, wore hausa cloths all your life, Eat hausa food, retain hausa name. You can only be Hausa when your both of your parents are Hausa.

You are from southern Kaduna and have hausa cristian friend. Why Kaduna? All hausa from Kaduna knows where their original home is, where their parents /grandparents comes from. Saw many southerners on facebook claiming to have cristian hausa friends from southern kaduna. All i reminded them is Kaduna is not a Hausa states heck not everybody from original hausa states is hausa by tribe. We have hundreds of tribes residing in Hausaland and we hausa knows who they are, They also knows themselves, call your southern Kaduna hausa cristian let him introduce himself here and honestly answer our questions.

I don't deny the existence of none muslim hausa but they only make 0.07% or 1% of Hausa people. Hence i never met one and i doubt you had. You are mistaken cocolati as bahaushe that guy isn't hausa but Hausa-wannabe, Identity Fraud. Been able to speaks hausa does not makes you Bahaushe. You father and mother has to be hausawa for you to be called bahaushe. I doubt if any of his parents falls under
the 1% (None Muslims Hausa) but since we can't believe he is from the 1% just because he's speaks the Hausa language.

To prove he is hausa let's him post his picture just like fulani have looks we can tell their identity so as hausa. I'm Hausa and i knows who is from my tribe when i see one.

Let him tell us from which hausa States he is from? and his village?

His parents state of origin? Among old hausa state and their village?

Every Hausa family have profession passed to them from generations to generation. What's his family profession? His father and mothers inherited professions/occupation?

who currently amongst His relatives is muslim?

Every Hausa has a family name, What's his family name? (Family name) and his mother's family name?

Is he and his parents later Christian convert?

When did him or his parents accept Christianity as faith?

Is he or his parents pagans before Christianity or were they muslims?

His age?

Is he married, if yes is his wife bahausa or not?


He needs more than the (capability to write in hausa) as his prove he's Bahaushe (Bahaushen jinsi) and not a gamagarin bahaushe (hausa by language)


Let him do us a favor by posting his pictures(3) and answer our questions.

AnanseK:
Garba is one of the names given to one with name Abubakar. I think the name started as Karba and gradually changed to Garba. Other forms include Garbai, Abu, Buba, Bakari, Bakare, Habu, Bukar and Gagare.

Is Garbai a Kanuri version of hausa garba? It's only Kanuri i see using Garbai instead of garba never seen hausa using Garbai.

Also notice hausa from Kebbi, Sokoto, zamfara uses Bagudu for Abubakar more often than garba.

To give you example , My late grandpa name is Abubakar bagudu baura , (Bashar his father's name)

Also our current Kebbi state governor full name is Atiku Abubakar bagudu. Do some hausa from your state use the name bagudu for Abubakar instead of garba? and why do think the name started as Karba? Karba has obvious meaning.

santricedupas:
why can't hausa tribes in nigeria rebel against sultan of sokoto and dethrone him, and they should install hausa king In all hausaa state.

Tell me why we Hausa should rebel against fulani and dethrone them and i will answer your question.

I'm Hausa...

scholes0:
This is very very inaccurate.
Hausa is not the 11th most spoken language in the world. Lies.



So you think All of Niger belongs to Hausa by assigning all the population to them?

So where would you put Zarma-Songhai (25%), Arabic, Tamasheq, Fulfulde? ohh and Kanuri.

Mind you,, There is no way there are 85 million Hausa speakers in Nigeria.

Hausa people makes 53% of Niger Republic population. Bazabarmawa, Buzaye, Hillani da Bare'bari etc make the remaining percentage.

Only about 20% of Nigeriens are French literate but more than 80% of the population speaks hausa. Mind you in Niger hausa is the language its citizens use as bridge in communication with different tribes other than theirs

Nigeria is estimated to be 200million+ , given that northern Nigerian hold 60% of the population it will be right to say their are 120million+ hausa speakers or more in Nigeria alone. 95% Northern Nigeria speaks hausa and their are another 10% hausa speakers from southern Nigeria tribes igbos, Yoruba etc.

Hausa serves as the language of trade , Islam and language that united immigrants in many West African countries. Togo, Ghana, Benin, Cameroon, Gabon etc having millions of none hausa speakers. I estimate that to be 20million.

Their should be atleast 160milliom hausa speakers across the world. I might be wrong but considering their are 120million Hausa speakers in Nigeria alone 17million hausa speakers in Niger Republic. my estimation isn't that ridiculous.
