Fulanis own that land by conquest, you are not going anywhere, if you want to leave the north, you can leave by walking down to the SW, but not with the land in the North. It belongs to Fulanis.

Two can play the game. grin



I don't know why people from that across River Niger bridge always love to be slow in reasoning in a serious debate


you people have been on forefront telling middlebelters to quit the North oligarchy, now one of them is tracing their root to identify with them you people won't still stop this una unfortunate wailing


Ilorin conquest happened during the naive days of Nigeria colonalization but conquest of Biafra when everyone is awake even your Governor general graduated from oxford but yet you people were conquered and wasted only to crawled back to eat your leftover vomit


if anyone is talking about conquest, I don't expect it from any Easterners, you people should be ashamed whenever you come across that word

Last last we go dey alright

This is quite different.

The Igbos lost the Biafran war, which explains why the Igbo-speaking people in Rivers and Delta have refused to align with their brothers in the South East.

If the reverse had been the case, they would have been begging to join the country because Biafra would have gone far.

Besides, Nigeria would be treating them as slaves just as they do now (explore and tap your oils and pay you peanuts in compensation).

Victory has many friends. On the other hand, defeat has numerous enemies.

Fulanis have nothing to do with the Okun People. We have never shared a boundary with them.

Tell that to HRH Oba Ikuborije the Okun monarch who allegedly favours Fulanis.

You don't get it. Imagine a Yoruba speaking person being called a northerner when you don't even share similar cultures or values.

I personally hate it.

You are regarded as a Northerner, is not the same thing as Hausa/Fulani person .

Even though their concerns are genuine, it is practically impossible to cede them to the south west based on geographical segregation because they represent just a chunk of Kogi's landmass that shares land border with Edo, Enugu and Benue. Their goal can only be achieved with equal cooperation from Kwara state and Kogi as a whole. They all must speak in unison else, nothing worthwhile will be done.

This is long overdue.
Okun people speak Yoruba and geographically they're in the Southern part of the country.

The same people that will tell u the igbo speaking area in Niger delta are not igbos but migrants from Benin republic will be quick to accept the okun people as yurobas, let us continue to deceive ourselves in this country when we are ready we all will know, the okun people have never complained about their relationship with the northern region just like the igbo speaking south south until now they are feeling insecure with their adopted brothers, when we are ready as people we will know.

A lot of nigerians are illiterate despite going to school.

When they say 3 major tribes, it doesn't everything must be grouped into these 3. It is disgusting to do so and also stupid. You don't even need to travel before you understand this.

Disgusting.

These places you named have been known as north for a long time.

They have a common language binding them which is Hausa.
Hausa is sparsely spoken in Benue and mostly by people of Hausa or core north origin.
