Yes, you are right that British rule favoured the Caliphate afterwards by extending their influence beyond their original conquest. Bear in mind also that it was same British rule that effectively subsumed the Hausa people under Fulani hegemony. This is not far fetched nor counter to my original post that British colonial concept of civilization regarded the Fulani emirates as more civilized than the rest of us so they basically handed the entire shabang to the Caliphate. Problem was the conquering Fulanis have near zero population in Nigeria, just like the Brits, thus the gain of colonial Nigeria fell to the Hausas who were the primal Fulani conquest.

This is the Nigeria passes down to us today. It is so, not because the Brits considered northerners stupid, but because they actually believed that northerners were more refined than the rest of us. And by northerners, I mean Fulani's and Hausas. Right or wrong, the British are long gone and we are now here to handle our country the way we should. Are we ready yet?
I disagree @ the bolded.
Hausa states were already united by Danfodio's conquest many years before the British came...

Hausa foot soldiers were used to spread fulani conquest to Adamawa/Bauchi/Gombe and other areas.

Hi, I am awake now. Yea, you joined the discuss halfway. Pls don't be a Trump with facts. The British took Lagos in 1861, deposed the Benin Oba in 1896, bombed Ijebu to submission in 1880s, pacified the entire southwest of the Niger up to Lokoja before 1900! The British transported King Jaja, set up Port Harcourt, gained control of the Niger and coopted the entire Southeast of the Niger and the Benue rivers before 1900! The British made Calabar capital of their Niger activities until they defeated the Minna Emirate and then moved the capital to Lokoja in 1900! Kano, Kebbi, Sokoto and Gobir Emirates only fell between 1905 to 1911. It was only after the British had pacified the entire area that Luggard could proclame his now infamous amalgamation which created the Nigeria of today in 1914.

The above facts are quite so easily verifiable so it beats me why we need this argument.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ekumeku_Movement

Sokoto caliphate fell completely in 1903 while Eastern Igbo land (Aro) fell in 1902. The Ekumeku wars of the Anioma people was the last war the British had to fight before the establishment of the southern protectorate. Anioma fell completely in 1914 at the end of the Ekumeku war.

Most Tanzanians speak Swahili from childhood.For many Tanzanians including myself,Swahili is our mother tongue.Its in our veins.

While for a Kenyan dude,He speaks his mother tongue(a tribal one) then he learns Swahili at a later stage.A result? A heavy and unattractive Swahili.

I always feel Kenyans don't have a real national language.When they speak English,it doesn't sound smooth.Most of them whom I met they struggle on pronunciation. Although they write it properly.
When it come to Swahili they do struggle still.When I meet with most Kenyans,they can't understand Swahili very well.

But again,we can't say Kenyans shouldn't try to speak a better Swahili.I think its good if they learn more. But I am surprised when they claim to know swahili,the only exception is for some guys of coastal Kenya.
This is the pure undiluted truth.

@mtisTheQubit, if you want to mention my name speaking swahili, then at least try to speak it like a Tanzanian ! Not the rubbish you speak.

It's such a shame that Kenyans are not good in anything!

I just can't point out to anything that I'd say others look up to Kenyans for. Absolutely nothing.

I am so proud of Tanzanians and how much they have managed to promote Swahili language through their music across the continent. If Kenyans were like Tanzanians, Swahili language should have been dominating most of Africa by now.

You can prove me otherwise if you can. When I searched about her, I discovered that most blogs that talked about her where Kenyan blogs

*******You Kenyans here were the first to bring up the issue of Bien's Nigerian girlfriend in the past when you guys were desperately trying hard to prove that Kenyan men could get Nigerian women.
I don't make noise without facts to back them up, if you want me to go back a year ago and bring that up, I can do it, but it would only be to your shame!...

I will not tolerate you calling our women cheap! We aren't as materialistic as Southern women doesn't make us cheap in any way.
***** It's not that people here are not ambitious, they just tend to have a culture of contentment. The average person from Kaduna for instance is okay with the normal civil service life with a nice appartment and a car.
However, the life here is gradually changing and young people are now becoming more ambitious.
I didn't call them cheap in the real sense, I just said they are cheaper. Ok, less materialistic in the real sense, are you happy?
That's my people too, so there is no reason I'd want to talk them down for no good reason.

You know, every system or way of life has it's pros and cons. Trust is still a strong culture among our people which is completely lacking in the south and that's very important.

You seem genuinely interested in this topic therefore I shall engage you further to comment on the points you raised. Caveat is, you gotta totally offload your emotions and research history from a purely detached viewpoint.

1) The Caliphate fell long after the southern Kingdoms. Don't take my word for it, just do a cursory google search on "British colonization of Nigeria". Also, common sense application of geography to military strategy will show that the British, who invaded from the Atlantic coast, will not flank unconquered enemy forces in the south to go on a conquest up north.

2) At the end of the Yoruba civil war in 1888 to the eve of the fall of Benin in 1896, none of these civilizations had writing and none was projecting war outside its territory. They were also both polytheist society with governments nowhere near as complex as the bureaucracy of the Caliphate.

3) For all effect and purpose, the Fulani jihad did force Hausa hegemony over much of the tribes of the Kaduna, Niger and Benue basin. Yes, the Caliphate did not outrightly subjugate these peoples, however, they had enough dominion amongst them to be able to spread their influence over them.

Sleep calls...later.
Oga, check again. The north fell completely to the British before the south fell. And this is not even my area of interest, my interest is the last paragraph.

Hausa fulanis did not conquer Southern Kaduna, Plateau, Benue, Gombe south and most parts of Taraba/Adamawa. The British were the ones who brought about indirect rule system of government to force our people under emirate rulership. Some resisted, but others fell. The use of Hausa language was promoted/manadated for Biblical evangelism and schools in the old northern region. This was what spread Hausa language around the region, otherwise, there was no form of direct influence by conquest or whatsoever means!

We know those who were conquered by Hausa fulanis and the people are predominantly muslims, e.g the Ilorins, the Nupes and Bauchi tribes.

***** This song above and many other Tanzanian songs make me feel like I could melt into spoken Tanzanian Swahili sometimes. Damn!
***** Now Kenyans will start attacking me when I say I don't find them attractive compared to Tanzanian men.
Cc NairobiWalker cheesy

Sometimes Tanzanian men sing almost as if they are women. I don't understand how they do it. They sound Indian (the best way I can put it). And this becomes so so romantic.
In fact, I hereby declare Tanzanian swahili the official romantic language/dialect of Africa grin

~~~~ You know, this is why at a time I felt Tanzanians were the true owners of swahili. Just like Hausa language, we the 2nd language speakers of Hausa think we speak fluent and good hausa, not until we meet with native hausa speakers (to them, we don't know how to speak Hausa) grin

You are also correct. I find Kenyan english heavily unattractive and heavily intonated.
Wow, I also like this song too.

It's good that I'm not the only one noticing these things.
West Africans already smell the hypocrisy of Kenyans as regards Tanzania from far away in spite of the lies they tell.

In spite of the lies Kenyans tell us, now here is Kazikazi telling us the truth that most Kenyans cannot really speak fluent and standard swahili.. They just speak rubbish... When you watch a Tanzanian music or movie or anything, you can see how much they flow effortlessly and melodiously with their swahili.

Tanzania is just the appeal of East Africa. Nothing else interests me in East Africa beside Tanzania and maybe Rwanda.

Same way you guys rub the western based poverty rates on our face and deny same western based GDP sources.
It takes 2 to Tango afterall.
***** Besides when you talk about people being extremely poor in Nigeria, that poverty is overwhelmingly rural northern Nigeria, so it can never come into relationship on how must urban Nigerian men live their lifestyles of spoiling women.

~~~~ Westerners say anyone who cannot spend 2 dollars a day is extremely poor. In Nigeria, that is about #750. Less than that amount of money can get someone nutritious 3 squire meals in Northern Nigeria. That's why they call these people extremely poor, but this same people are well fed and very healthy. Shouldn't extremely poor people be sickly, hopeless & starving ?? You yourself, do some reasoning on this. Remove the sake of arguing and judge it with common sense.



Imagine you comparing Europeans who have a very different working government and history with Igbos, WHILE I was comparing my people and Igbos who are under the same government and share a common history and heritage.
**** What you could have done is compare people from Advanced nations who spoil their women and those who don't.
Nowenuse is so right afterall when he said Kenyans lack good use of analogies. Sometimes the analogies you guys bring just makes one shakes her head.

~~~ Igbos have a very materialistic society that pushes them to work harder and that is why they may be richer on average than the other Nigerians, nothing else.

Ask any Nigerian and even the Igbos themselves, they will agree with you that Igbos marry at a later age than anyone else. I even heard that in some parts of Igbo land, you must build a house in your village before marriage, whereas in some other Nigerian tribes you can even get married in your father's house as a man grin

>>>> There is no other difference between Igbos and others Nigerians. I wish you could point it out.
You guys just wanna argue everything including our own cultures and lifestyles over here undecided



Well, I can't argue this anymore cos I don't know anything about Nigerians living in Kenya and how they live their lives. Until I witness first hand, then I will judge.
***** However, I can't take your biased views any seriously.




I don't really support materialism. However I don't support absolute non-materialism. I prefer a balance between both, cos I have seen the pros and cons of both.
***** Have you wondered why 99% of the people's names you see disgracing Nigeria outside Nigeria are Southern Nigerians? At same time an amazing percentage of those making Nigeria proud outside are same Southern Nigerians?
Some may think illiteracy of northern Nigerians is the cause, but that is largely untrue because we in the middlebelt are just as educated as the South. Materialism is the answer.... If you still think it's not, then pls I look forward to you to tell me the reason for the discrepancy.
Hahahaha, didn't I tell you? Arguing with people like NairobiWalker, you just have to be patient to do a lot of educating.

And yes you can't be more correct about the culture of materialism in Nigeria.

I am from the middlebelt but have grown in the South amongst Igbos and others and have also imbibed their ways, and to be sincere when I go back to Jos, I find my own people too sluggish and laid back for my own liking.

They seem not to be very ambitious and the women seem to be cheaper than Southern women.

Of course not, we use the world bank and IMF statistics which definitely support the Nigerian statistics grin

How many industries are in Mombasa, Kisumu & Nakuru?

The number of industries in Port harcourt, Kano, Kaduna, Ibadan, Onitsha and many other Nigerian cities are highly intimidating.

Colonial advantage is India being colonized for a far longer period of time, hence getting exposed to western cultures and systems for a longer period of time.

It is also of the entire Indian subcontinent being colonized in uniformity by one European power, hence ensuring uniformity across the terrain, UNLIKE Africa that was split like a pie among different colonial powers, creating dozens of unfriendly international boundaries, diverse policies and conflicting systems and values bequeathed by the colonizers.

Any ugly malnourished east African you see like those marathon runners. It's definitely Kenyan.

Any uncivilized stone age forest dwelling and animal blood drinking East African you see is a Kenyan.

Any beautiful or handsome well behaved, friendly East African you see with a melodious voice is either Tanzanian or Rwandan, but check the forehead, if it's protruded, it's Rwandan.

Any one who fits into neither categories is Ugandan.

This is just mere propangada from western media, thesame western media that tells you Nigeria has the largest economy in Africa as well as the 3rd richest city on the continent? lt doesn't add up my friend, just think about it.
ln Warri for instance ( an oil city) there are so many middle class Nigerian millionaires ( in Naira) who live well in decent buildings and send their kids to the UK or Nigerian and Ghanian private schools.
Also, there are so many silent millionaires in another city called Nnewi, which even your western media can attest to, ( we aren't even talking about places like Abuja, Lagos or PortHarcourt here).
Some months ago, the Nigerian finance body spoke about including in tax payments, thousands of privately owned businesses in Lagos alone( worth millions of dollars) not currently under the tax class, to support Government revenue.
l know for a fact Nigeria is definitely rich, there are so many poor people in Southern Nigeria, but their numbers just do not add up to make Nigeria the poorest nation in the world.
As for the northerners, many whom we see as poor are just farmers whose lifestyles( or way of living) we do not understand.
So calling Nigeria( as a nation) poor or rich is quiet complex.
Nothing but the truth...

Western media statistics just cannot be trusted. For instance, when I watch documentaries and see the poverty in countries like India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, the Phillipines etc, I just can't understand why it would be said that Nigeria has far more poor people than these countries.
I see almost no difference in the lifestyles of these people and Nigerians.

I discovered that almost half of Indian population practice open defecation compared to 1/3 of Nigeria's population. Majority of Indians live in rural areas and in those rural areas, majority of them sleep on the floor! They do not even have beds.
I have been to the remotest rural areas of Northern Nigeria and you find almost all of them with beds and even televisions in their houses.

When you compare the pictures of rural south Asians and that of rural Nigerians, you find our people looking far more healthy than theirs.

Smh. Are you trying to tell me that most of you Kenyans here just cannot have a decent conversation without hate filled, angry and uncouth language?

>>>> OMG I always thought this song below was a Kenyan song.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYLJdSfPGrE

I just discovered that it is actually a Rwandan song and this extremely handsome and sexy dude with a lovely voice called THE BEN is actually Rwandan and not Kenyan lipsrsealed
So you watch these musics too? The Ben is a Rwandese singer, you can't expect a Kenyan singer to look as handsome and stylish as he looks.
The best Kenya can offer are ugly looking singer like the likes of Nyanshinki and Sauti sol.

Actually, I also thought this song was a Kenyan song especially at the part where I saw some men drinking Chang'aa or Busaa or whatever they call that crazy alcoholic drink they drink with straws cheesy
However, I knew nothing good could come out of Kenya, so I had to google the origin of this singer and voila RWANDA.

Na gaya miki karki kara kashe lokacin da mutane irin NairobiWalker da sauran su masu wawanchi.

You mentioned Durumi? Mpape and others? Durumi is where I used to live in Abuja.

***** Kindly look at the pictures below showing houses for rent in Durumi & Mpape.

(sighs) God, how do I explain these things to you guys to understand? Ok let me start somewhere for you Kikuyu1 and NairobiWalker who have quoted me on slum topics.

¤¤¤ A slum is supposed to be a community with a heart of it's own just like Makoko or Kibera. A slum is supposed to have it's own schools, government representative centres, polling units, possibly health centres e.t.c in other words, a life of it's own.

This is what you cannot find in Nigeria apart from Makoko. You Kenyans just find it hard to believe.

Perhaps because you think our country should definitely be like yours (pls I do not mean this in a demeaning manner). What I meant was that, you guys expect your housing systems and that of ours to be the same. But it is not. We do not have the same housing systems.

•••••••• In most urban parts of Nigeria, the rich, the middleclass and the poor sometimes live together in the same suburb. People can buy lands almost in any part of the city and develop it to taste, that is why you can find beautiful mansions and gated houses in predominantly low income areas with parts which may pass for a slum.
So, let's say in Mpape suburb, there are neighbourhoods which can pass as a slum, in same Mpape, you'll find more beautiful middleclass estates and houses as you can see from the picture below.
So, in the real sense, those slummish neighbourhoods are not the definition of what Mpape is. They are just an illegal section of Mpape which managed to develop in a short time evading the attention of the environmental authorities. However, they cannot evade the environmental authorities for so long grin, so they get demolished in a very short time (search google for demolition in Mpape and see for yourself).

***** This is why when you guys mention any Nigerian suburb which you think is a full blown slum, we will show you guys beautiful houses and estates from that same place.
The only place we cannot do that for is Makoko! This is because Makoko is what it is! A full blown slum. A community with a heart of it's own. Lagos state govt has tried to demolish Makoko, but it failed because how do you just destroy an entire community with over a hundred thousand people?
¿¿¿ However, google demolitions in Abuja and see a whole lot of developing slummish neighbourhoods being demolished year in year out... Our former FCT minister who is now the governor of Kaduna state (El Rufai), his nick name is MAI RUSAU (which roughly translates DEMOLITION MAN in hausa language grin). The name was given to him because of the way he demolished every springing illegal settlement of Abuja while he was the minister of the city.

****** So, here is the new! The illegal house builders are now moving to the village settlements of the indigenous natives of Abuja city who were resettled outside Abuja. This is because they know that the government cannot easily go and destroy the villages of these natives.
So, yes, FCT (and not Abuja) may start having slums in the future if the government doesn't start invading these indigenous villages cos this was exactly how Makoko evolved, from an indigenous fishing village.
Splendid and perfect explanation girl. I couldn't have said it better.
Kenyans have heads like coconuts, so expect them to still reply you with rubbish after your perfect elucidation.

These guys just can't live with the reality that living in slums like Kibera is not just a Nigerian thing.
Kenyans even have slums that are a collection of multiple slums grin How bad can it get?
