shehu fodio didn't force or kill people, please do research on him and just stop denying this tradition, it is not certain areas but most areas

I just gave you a link that says otherwise and I'm not denying it but its not as wide spread as you would like to claim it was, of all the ethnic groups in Nigeria the Igbo were the most fragmented so what occurred in one Igbo clan did not mean it occurred in another.

Shehu was elected the leader and called Amir al-Mu'minin or Sarkin Muslimin and the
call for jihad against pagans and half Muslims was made. Twelve flag bearers were initially sent
to act his commander to Zaria and Katsina with the most difficult battle against Gobir that was
eventually won. Kano and Zazzau remained hesitant but were won over and the rest of the states
were sent letters to invite and join the cause of truth against falsehood.The Jihad ended in 1808

SO what did he do talk to them over a cup of tea?

Ok

sbeezy8 Why are you telling us? I never understand why men do this? Especially on Nairaland.

"So and so is hot, " congratulations, do you want an ovation? an award? a ribbon? a cookie?

I don't see what is so special about one group of women that every little chance a man get on Nairaland they have to announce it even if the discussion is about the weather in Abuja,

"So and so women look nice in 80 degree weather" and so?

Because a couple of black guys have Ethiopian and Somali women its now a seal of approval? What happen to people picking who they like because, I don't know? They like them!

Find whoever you want but please spare us from the trumpeting, the ovations, and all the other stuff you guys like to do when it comes to x-women, most of us don't care, I know I don't and honestly you'll be doing Nigerian society at large a favor by passing on your burden and baggage to someone else.

i'm not being ignorant, it's the truth 

by the way it's wrong, fulanis did not slaughter people and forced them to accept any religion

Shaihu Usman dan Fodio (Arabic: عثمان بن فودي ، عثمان دان فوديو‎), born Usuman ɓii Foduye, (also referred to as Shaikh Usman Ibn Fodio, Shehu Uthman Dan Fuduye, or Shehu Usman dan Fodio, 1754–1817) was the founder of the Sokoto Caliphate in 1809, a religious teacher, writer and Islamic promoter. Dan Fodio was one of a class of urbanized ethnic Fulani living in the Hausa States in what is today northern Nigeria. A teacher of the Maliki school of law and the Qadiriyyah order of Sufism, he lived in the city-state of Gobir until 1802 when, motivated by his reformist ideas and under increased repression by local authorities, he led his followers into exile. This exile began a political and social revolution which spread from Gobir throughout modern Nigeria and Cameroon, and was echoed in an ethnicly Fula-led Jihad movement across West Africa. Dan Fodio declined much of the pomp of rulership, and while developing contacts with religious reformists and Jihad leaders across Africa, he soon passed actual leadership of the Sokoto state to his son, Muhammed Bello.

The Fula or Fulani jihads, were a series of independent but loosely connected events across West Africa between the late 17th century and European colonization, in which Muslim Fulas took control of various parts of the region. It is also sometimes referred to as "Fulani revolution."

A jihad state is a territory that was established by political and religious Muslim leaders who conquer a region by offensive war, invoking jihad ("struggle" in Arabic).

So they just asked the people to convert to Islam willingly

True for certain areas of Igbo land not every Igbo person did the samething, stop being stupid.

p square

Would have lived depending on which part of Igbo land the were born in.
Namfav stop being ignorant, was it not the Fulanis who slaughtered people and forced them to convert all in the name of religion?

@physics, I didnt we had an English teacher in the house, A little slip of my typing fingers do not indicate im lacking the spelling knowledge of the English language. Secondly, I do not give a flip about English. It only means right now a means of communication between me and you baboons.

To the called Sallinya or whatever the freak poo his called, Listen, you piece of Nigerian LovePeddler, your a whitemen worshipper. You are a con artist, the ones that send me million of fraudalent email messages.

Nigeria is known throughout the whole world as the most corrupt and evil country to have ever existed among the nations of the world. You whole society is corrupt.

Are you kidding me with your attempts of gloriying your hell hole called Nigeria?, Unreal, Btw, for enlightenment you might want to visit my blog, you dam baboon, myhajj..com

I'm sorry but whoring is your mother's profession not mine

Somalia is the b.astard child of Africa, a place that most Africans and the world have written off as a failed state. Nigeria is dysfunctional, but I would rather stay in Nigeria before setting foot in the anarchy and chaos known as Somalia.

Why would I want to visit your blog, to continue reading semi-literate writings from a man-child from a 6th world slum? Please, be thankful that humans see fit to address you slightly better than the dog you are!

The fact that the only word you can write is baboon shows who is human and who is beast. Back in to your cage animal, dinner will be served a 6.

namfav:
there are a number of fulanis who have sold out who are w-hores just ask tweety, it is very sad but true

You keep up with that attitude Namfav and we might start suspecting your mother is one too,

Elyas:
You, yes your, with the above comment, yes you the Baboon, If I was in Africa and i've seen you somewhere in the streets of Abuja, I would've shot you and then practically claim that I thought you were a Baboon and not a Nigerian, So quit talking about Somalis, you do not know nothing about Somalis, Somalis think and believe there are no superior race then them, it is engrained in our genetic makeup, So get lost.

What? Was that English? I know schools are non existent in your country at the moment, but try and speak proper, pretend to be a a semi-literate Human being at least

You make to Abuja? Can you afford 3 square meals a day and a roof over your head? Talk less of plane ticket to Nigeria? That would be 8 years salary for you in Somalia right?

Superior race? Yes when it comes to 20 year civil wars, you guys are superior to the rest of Africans! Lol

Somali master race, LMAO

namfav:
yes, where everyone is allowed to be a w-hore as well

So there has never been a Fulani w.hore ever lol yeah enjoy that fantasy, humans are humans period.

Tweety please continue writing, I'm sure there are many other Fulanis in and out Nigeria that are in the same position as yourself and would like to connect with someone
And I like the fact you touch on Fulani and Northern Culture, which most Nigerians in Nigeria don't even have much knowledge

namfav:
saiyaman go away
fulani is our ethnicity, islam is our deen

Islam is a religion, no more no less and it is everyone's god given right to choose to practice or not practice it.
Just because you still live in 500 AD does not mean the rest of us do, dummy.

namfav:
first you say you left the truth, i am from a strong background of fulanis and have observed this, a strong fulani will not allow his child to leave something as precious to us as al islam, its our identity, assuming you are fulani, that is a misrepresentation in itself, what will non-fulanis think of your father, assuming he is fulani? your experiences are no at all unique, wallahi they are misrepresenting our culture and many of us will be happy if you represented your blog on yourself and not on our culture and deen, as far as i am concerned a yoruba muslim is more of a kin than you

So an adult is not free to choose their own religion?
More proof that Namfav is daft as tree bark.

Sweetnecta:
@Elyas; Tawakul Alallah. Islam does not allow such an offensive introduction,

Human decency should not allow that kind of introduction lol
I know your country is still in the middle of a civil war but a few have allowed themselves to regress back to animals

Namfav is a dummy, arguing with him is a waste of time as a brick wall would provide much better conversation.
