My brother,let's take it from this angle,you want to convert to islam and someone now told you that you must use ram or cow whatever blood to cleanse yourself before you can be consider as a full fledge muslim,tell me what will just come to your mind?
It's like a child running away from you,you want to entice him and you took a knife in your left hand,calling him with the right hand,brother,reason nah,d kid go come?simple as that.
Bros let's leave religion out of dis. I dnt know wat else to say

I agree with the op on the blood bath because a yoruba Muslim and hausa Muslim re not the same. Reason is that they dont worship together. That is why yoruba Muslims can't know the full doctrines of the quran like the hausas'
Actually I dnt want to dispute his claim Dat such blood bath is not done in Islam. Reason been Dat I hvn't witnessed it life. What I put down earlier is what I was told by d principal n anoda convert called Mallam Shamsy. But aldsame, let's let d mata lie

U re welcome bros. It is just like a normal bath with water,you will make a short oral declaration of faith at the end of the bath. Nothing is done in the public. The principal was just trying to let u knw u will be taking to the central mosque for people to know u.
The most important thing is the bath and the declaration of faith which will be done in the bathroom.
OK bro. Tnks so much. How ur side

This is fantastically unfair, well I've two aunty who got married to a Muslim one from Kano late emirs youger brother and another from Niger state but they were allowed to continue their Christian faith but the children remained a Muslim, but one of my cousin she converted to Christian on her own will my aunty didn't ask her or force her, it only happen when she came down her to do her University education and when she graduated she got married to a Christian though she didn't have it easy she fought for it, she stood her ground and her father loved her so much that though he was furious he still grant her her wish. One of my aunty husband is late now the one from Kano but the palace still take good care of her, I've visited her once many years ago, they treat our women well, i think is time we guys start fighting for our right if we are truly in love with a Muslim girl and if she happens to be the woman of our dreams, we should be ready and prepared to face the showdown until we get what we want, like the case of my Muslim cousin sister. For me Oh na fulani girl dey my eye and I was told I should go to adamawa state na that time boko Haram dey hot i wasn't able to go to find d a fulani girl for my self, now I'm in serious relationship with a girl down south, but I still dream to marry a fulani girl guy if I see one I go fight for her i nor lie u, as long as she too will still be ready to wage the battle wit me bible say one shall chase a thousand two shall put ten thousand to flight
As a Muslim guy, u can marry a Christian girl n take her to ur place but u can't marry dia Muslim girls n take dem to ur place as a guy.

You can convert Islam overnight. The bath can take place even in your bathroom (Ghusl) , the issue of central mosque is just for people to meet the new converted fellow and may be also for refreshment. The case of blood bath is totally out of it, there is nothing like that in converting to Muslim,the ram might just be for refreshment.
OK bro. Tnks for the enlightenment. So wat do dey use for the bath. Is it just water? What I wrote earlier is wat I was told Dia... I hvnt attended one b4.Aldsame, I appreciate ur contribution.

Bros I luv this thread, I have been with u from the very first day u start with. But with due respect bros, In Islam there is nothing like killing a ram to use the blood on a converted Christian for purification and stripping someone unclad in the public. Does that make sence to u as a graduate ? I am a muslim from south west.
. Dear bro, I never said d new convert will be strip unclad in public. Dey do it in a mosque in Garki and after Dat, d party will be a public one. I have first time account from the principal and one mallam Shamsy-an Enugu man Dat chose to be a Muslim Dia. I won't come here and tarnish anoda religion for nutin. Of wat use will it be to me.

Sorry,let me be more specific.

How is the social life for female corpers up north and how do the locals men feel about interacting with them.

You can give us a little life scenario maybe that happened to Jessica or any one.
Dey dnt mingle with female Corp members due to inferiority complex, d fact Dat every grown up boy is married and more also Dat our female Corp members dnt feel like having anything to do wit dem

CONTINUATION OF WHAT I HAD WITH ZAINAB

When i entered the principal's office dat day,he welcomed me as if nothing was happening but den i fixed me eyes at his facial expression.lt didn’t take long for him to cut short my anxiety.'Kofa jos,' he said in dia Hausa accent.'There is dis rumour i'm hearing and as ur employer,i have decided to call u in here to hear from you.' 'It is about Zainab,the jss3 girl.They said u r planning of getin married to her.Is it true?' His question didn’t catch me unawares because that was what i have been hearing around dat time.I explained all i could to him.From how we were actually clse to distancing myself from part that said we were planning to get married.As soon as i accepted that we were dating,he den told me dat it was actually Zainab's father who ame to him to meet me about the issue.If i was actually planning on getin married to zainab.
He asked me to go that he wud send for me later as he sent for Zainab.From what she told me afterwards,he asked her similar questions o what he asked me but she gave him a particular answered at differed from mine−that we were working towards getin married! When the principal later called me the next day at sch(he didn’t send for me again dat first day),he told me same thing that zainab told me;that we r planning o getin married.I tld the principal that that was solely her own saying dat i neva told her anytin about marriage.Truelly,i haven’t.

I den decided to play a fast one on the principal: 'what does it take to marry a Muslim girl as a Christian boy?',i asked.He took time to analyse everything to me and it was more than i ever envisaged.
Before a Christian man can marry a muslim girl there,many transformations will have to take place.At first,you will be taken to their central mosque at Garki headquarter where u will be made to renounce ur faith and embrace lslam.That will be followed by change of name.Yes,u have to chage ur name to an hausa name.After that,they will fix a day in which they will kill a ram,use the blood to wash u off all 'Christian lineage and curses' as you are stripped unclad.That will be followed by 3months of learning of Karatu,prayers and ablution.It ia after all these processes dat they will start seeing you as a human being.

You are then qualified to take in their daughter as a wife wia u will be joined in d mosque. After the aure,thats marriage ceremony,u will be given a house there,some pieces of land to farm,two cows and a cart,a place to do business and some amount of money.This is because u wont be allowe to step an inch with their daughter in the name of travelling to your place.Infact,they will 'marry you.' If u must travel,den u r free to travel alone with neither ur wife nor the children.This is because dey dn stil trust u as a convert.They still believe that u might go back to ur Christian life.

After all these explanations, i knew right there that the story has ended even before it started−we can't make it. I didn’t tell her what transpired between me and the principal that day for fear she might do smtin funny to herself .She kept on tellin me all dos while,dat imshud do Salah and she wud be my first wife.I used to laugh such talks off den.
To cut the long story short,i was just been careful with her after that encounter with the principal becos i wasn’t ready for more problems.Thanks to God because our POP was drawing really close.I devised all possible means i could to make her believe that i would come back for her after we have passed out.It asnt just easy for her to buy such idea but i came out tops finally.

(The next post will be the last which will be: MY LAST DAYS AT KORE)
Update soon.

My question is this with your experience

1- in the North West, jigawa state, what kind of NGO do you think will the people accept or they are really in need off, "for example if you want to set up an NGO in that community what kind of service will you be offering" this quote will help u answer my NGO question as I am hoping to start an NGO in the North but I really want to learn first hand which will be effective that will impact the peoples live positively

2- what crops or livestock can one buy from that side and bring down south to sell by so doing making one self employed.

3- what do we have in abundance in the South that is very scarce in that locality that if we take them they we can sell quickly and have good turnover

4- what is your advice on better ways to build a lasting solution between the relationship of North and South using your experience since our relationship as at today is not really good
OK bro
1.Any NGO u want to invest in Dat has no link or reference to Islam won't succeed. U can think one out bro cos I cnt remember any now.
2.Rams and goats
3.Garri
4.lets begin to see ourselves as one Nigeria but Dat with wat I have seen won't be easy to come by. Reason been that they are different people altogeda from us. There is no similarity b/w d North and d South /East

I totally understand this, when this fulani commit such crime no body ever report that they went to confront them, the kore knew the importance of life that was why they simply stop planting cash crops, good decision but it is with lots of pain, because they chose to save every life that would have been lost through clash with the fulani, Benue people should copy from this and find a lasting solution with the fulanis, all I'm. after is peace, if you know tou don't have a monopoly of violence don't confront people harshly and roughly when u know say u nor be badest badoo, its always to find way to make peace work
