Everyone of them is now sucking up to the real indigenous Hausa people who they ignored because of the current election cycle after sucking up to the minority Fulas whose ancestors are of North African White Berber origin via Morocco and Mauritania nomadic cattle migrations. Uthman Danfodio's parents migrated to Niger Republic (where Uthman was born) from Futa Toro (which extends from parts of Northern Senegal to parts of Southern Mauritania).

[b]Mauritania is where the Fula biological father of Peter Obi's Vice Presidential Labor candidate (Datti Baba-Ahmed) came from. They are first generation Mauritanian Fulas which they visit from time to time to see their paternal relatives. Buhari's biological father too was a Fula who came into a nomadic cattle community via Niger Republic before working for an Emir of Katsina. Even Nasir El-Rufai confessed on a live Channels Television interview done during a "Kaduna Economic Summit" which I saw years ago that his Fula male ancestor actually into Nigeria after the jihad from Guinea (Guinea Conakry!). DNA test results I have seen from the United States-based "Ancestry DNA" or "23andMe" CLEARLY show that ALL Fulas are of North African Berber paternal origin hence the purer Bororo Fulas have slim bodies, lighter skins and prominent curly hairs like their North African Berber forebears. A very blunt Fula guy said (in a strong viral video response to the invasions and insidious activities of foreign Fula militias in several indigenous Nigerian communities) that the Fulas are NOT indigenous to Nigeria, Ghana, Cameroon or many West African countries. The ones in Mauritania came there as nomadic cattle people and some Islamic scholars via North Africa.

Katsina, Northern Kaduna, Kano, Jigawa, Sokoto, Zamfara, parts of Kebbi and other states in the North West of Nigeria are Hausaland and there are many videos online of several male and female Hausas who have angrily rejected the highly ridiculous tag of "Hausa-Fulani" which was first used in a BBC from the late 1950s right into the 1960s. "Hausa is Hausa," Fulas are of a different stock . Period.

Why? Is it because he fills your mouth with corn?

... because of politics and desperation, Obi has learnt to talk nonsense, he now calls black - white.

If he's this deceptive now because of 2027 election, what would happen if he eventually emerge president?

Politics doesn't need to make one pathological liar.

Everybody must not be in tune with your regularly negative kind of thoughts & infantile comments...

Why would you think that Hausas have been "setting Nigeria backwards"

Well, Peter Obi and many other Nigerians do not agree with you; Obviously.

Peter Obi has always said that the problems of Nigeria is; Endemic Corruption,Mediocrity in Public & Private life,Nepotism that kills Excellence,Unproductivity caused by too much Consumption & official flamboyance & Unnecessary wastages and not Hausa People !!!

But why do you choose to play deaf to all that Obi has been campaigning against;why have you not been listening to him?

Why?

No bi Demonic manifestation bi dat?

How is what he said different from what Jagaban of Borgu said about his fellow northerners below huh

Pakute:
President Bola Tinubu has described the Hausa people as pillars of Nigeria’s unity and progress, acknowledging their contributions to the country’s social and cultural development.

Tinubu made the remark in a message posted on his official X handle on Wednesday as Hausa communities in Nigeria and other parts of the world marked the 2026 Hausa Day, also known as Ranar Hausa.

He celebrated their contributions to the country’s development and cultural heritage, saying the language had evolved into an important tool for communication, unity and commerce in different parts of the world.

Those ones are Tinubu's best friends, as he is fond of betraying Yorubas and southerners to favour them.

How we foiled Jonathan’s effort to make Mulika Adeola Speaker, Akande reveals

AS president in 2011, Goodluck Jonathan did all he could to ensure South West grabbed the country’s number four seat, including lobbying then opposition leaders from the zone, to no avail. The North West eventually grabbed the seat, supported by South West leaders in opposition to then ruling party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Former Governor of Osun State and now statesman, Chief Bisi Akande, made this revelation in his autobiography, “My Participations” which is currently dominating political and national dis- course.

Aminu Tambuwal, now Sokoto State governor, won the seat, against the preferred pick of his party, Mrs Mulikat Adeola Akande, from the South-West. Defunct Action Congress of Nigeria, then a fledging opposition, which had Akande and his soulmate, former Lagos State governor, Senator Bola Tinubu, as front- line leaders, openly asked its elected members of the House of Representatives, mostly from the South-West, to work against their region and back Tambuwal from North-West.

The opposition party’s support carried Tambuwal through the contest against Akande, then ruling party’s favourite for the speakership seat.

In his book, Chief Akande revealed that former president then as incumbent, personally reached out to Tinubu, who is now believed to be nursing presidential aspiration in 2023 and himself, but couldn’t convince them.

He wrote, “President Jonathan, immediately after the meeting (with political parties), called Bola Tinubu aside into a lobby to broach the matter of ACN support for a choice of who would become the Speaker of the House of Representatives.

“That same day, President Jonathan talked to me on phone about the same matter. He disclosed that PDP had zoned the position to the South-West but that only one Muraina and another Mulika won elections on PDP ticket from the zone into the House of Representatives.

Eriokanmi:
They have this strong believe in one Nigeria. I agree on that. They're the only region or tribe who has not agitated for secession. Even tinubu once said he didn't believe in one Nigeria. How people forgets things so easily. The north fell for his muslim-muslim ticket. They're wiser now. If not the insecurity that has bedevelled them, they're more accommodating, followed by us in the south west.

But when it comes to contributions to the growth and d development of Nigeria, their efforts arent good enough. The south deserves an accolade on this. This isn't about sentiments but a reality. We just need to keep managing ourselves as a nation till we get things right. Our greedy leaders are the cause of all these divisions amongst us for their selfish gains. They'd soon start again as the election is approaching, be wise!

I hope Obi wont be misquoted by keyboard warriors this morning grin.
That's historically inaccurate. Northern political leaders threatened secession during the 1950 constitutional negotiations and again in the 1953 crisis.

You may also want to check their call for Arewa Republic.

You cannot be dancing for hausa today and start demanding for Biafra tomorrow when hausa refuse to vote for you.
Obi is not an "Igbo Candidate"

No any Igbo Leader or Organisation or group that is supporting him; all of them are supporting Tinubu...since 2023.

Only the general Nigerian masses...including Igbos...are supporting him.

Peter Obi's biggest backers/financiars, supporters are not Igbo!!

All the top OBIdients(Like Obasanjo,T.Y Danjuma,Afeniferes,Ize-Iyamu,Babachir Lawal,,El-Buba,Gunmi,Oyedepo,Sa'ad Abubakar,Aisha Yesuf,Malami,Kwankwaso,El-Rufai,etc ) are not Igbos!!

It's Ignorance,lazy thinking or Childish to think Obi is an Igbo candidate.

Take note

when tinubu was contesting in 2023 wasn't he deceptive? Obi has learnt that all is fair in politics according to tinubu,na the game he dey play now.
Re: Hausa People Pillars Of Nigeria’s Progress – Peter Obi by Skullminers1: 9:30am On Aug 27
Igbos and Hausas would have made best friends because they so much understand and respect each other because of business mindset but Fulanis and Yorubas deceived them by telling them that Igbos hate them the way they also deceived other tribes from South and Middle Belt but truth has come out

Kindly share the 30-seconds video here for us to see. There's definitely something strange or dodgy about some of the dude's knee-jerk online posts and responses that I noticed as well right from the last election cycle. He said he had ONLY used one wrist watch for years yet photographs show him wearing several types of wristwatches. This is why younger and healthier people NOT more than 55 years of age (or max 60 years of age) should be the ones gunning for these top-tier Presidential and Governorship political positions from here on out. Look at the current POTUS as well who is now 80 years but has always rambled on like someone with cognitive dissonance!
Re: Hausa People Pillars Of Nigeria’s Progress – Peter Obi by SuperEagles: 9:32am On Aug 27
Peter Obi as not spoken, he as lied and his lies will be rebuffed.

Just under Buhari who do Obi n his supporters call ALMAJIRI BANDIT N BOKO HARAM ?!

Obi will have to explain to Nigeeians what changed or if it was Tinubu that transformed the North to what he just claimed the North to be.

This page will be filled with tears because Obi has spoken.
Re: Hausa People Pillars Of Nigeria’s Progress – Peter Obi by Lumig: 9:33am On Aug 27
