Just save them up for that day

Good evening Ladies and Gentlemen.

The Christmas is here again and so is it's blessings, love and merry cheer.

Like the topic implies, this is to create awareness for an online event that'd take place on the 17th of December 2017.

An online giveaway was started on twitter by @burmese_tyga and from the way it's handled and judging from how people benefited from it, my friends and I thought it'd be nice to do same here, on Nairaland.

All you have to do is come online and post pictures of things you'd like to give away and indicate your location so that an interested person could reach out.

You can give away things ranging from old clothes, shoes, devices, food ingredients, services, even books.

Nothing is too small or too big.

We would love EVERYONE to be a part of it, so go to your bags, closets, shelves...bring out those items you don't need or no longer have use for, clean them up and take pictures of them to post here on Sunday. And if you have no item to give, you could give out recharge cards or e-books , everything counts and could be a blessing to someone out there.

Anticipate!!!

Merry Christmas in Advance everyone!

Actually, some parts of this article is right and some wrong.

Yes, a lot of Hausa people are marginalized but not because they are hausa. Nigerians dont hate Hausa people.

Nigerians hate poor people.

If the hausa boy that helped you was an Hausa man in an E class mercedes, the lake driver will offer to carry his bag for him.

Look at how Nigerians treat homosexuals, yes, they insult and will lynch them. Let then meet a rich homosexual, they will find an excuse. It will most likely be "when you have too much money, you dont think well"

Nigerians will easily burn a petty thief and even use their money to buy fuel but a lot of us were on social media asking for the release of Evans.

Intelligent points!

Saw this article on Facebook and thought it's best to share here. It's quite long, but please read through patiently. Enjoy!

Last year I went to our major market to shop groceries for the house. I gathered all my groceries in one shop while the shop owner helped me to look for a "barrow pusher"

He got this Hausa teenager who agreed to carry my load at 100 naira. We got to the main road and he stopped, I pleaded with him to exercise patience while I find Maruwa that will agree to take me to my dreaded estate.

The Maruwa search lasted for about 10-15 minutes and for each minute I observed the Hausa boy's facial expression. He just stood patiently, seemingly calm and not even with the slightest irritation.

I finally found Maruwa and the boy assisted in loading my groceries inside the tricycle. Out of love, I gave the boy 200 naira and told him not to bother with the balance. He was happy and left.

Then, Onku Onye Keke turned to me
"How much did you give him?" he asked

Not quite sure I wanted to discuss it I replied "200 naira" flatly

"200 gini? For what? Onye Awusa? How can you dash him money like that yada yada bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla..."

"Oga please mind your business"


Some months ago my Aunt went to the market to shop for groceries, she was standing beside a woman who was also shopping. Then a young Hausa boy walked past them from the back struggling with a wheel barrow full of groceries.

Fiam!!

The woman hit the boy on the shoulder

"Taaa!! Zuzuru shi ebe a puo! Onye Boko Haram, namar! (Get out of here Boko Haram boy, cow!)"

The boy looked at her helplessly wondering what he must have done wrong, every other person around there hurled insults at him for being an Hausa and automatically a Boko Haram member. My Auntie was angry and scolded the woman for being so mean

Few weeks ago, I was returning from work with my brother inside the same Maruwa. The driver had gotten to a point and was trying to park. Just then, two Hausa dudes were walking past our Maruwa chatting and laughing in their language. Then a guy sitting next to us shouted

"Taa Mechie onu dia!! Umu Awusa!! Ndi Zoo, ndi boko haram"




I'll stop here for now...

I'm no tribal person, I always prefer to be called a Christian or a Nigerian depending on the context than an Igbo.

Am I ashamed of my tribe? - Hell no! It is my identity but I have lived and mingled with virtually all the tribes in this country and I can say the only thing that differentiates us is culture - WE ARE ONE.

I use to think I couldn't marry an Edo man because THEY said Edo men are very proud and all that patriarchy shit until I met really cool sweet Edo dudes during youth service.
I met a couple of other great guys and girls and I just knew we were one, we only diverse in culture.

Arggggggghhhhhhhhh!!! Ada focus on the post!

Okay!

Are you looking for the most marginalized tribe in Nigeria?

Are you looking for that tribe which other tribes treat like shit?

Are you looking for that tribe that should be screaming for justice?

Meet the Hausa guys.

The average Hausa man is insulted, marginalized and seen as a national threat.

You want to cheat a marketer? The average Nigerian thinks the Hausa man deserves it.

You want to insult a random person? The average Nigerian remembers the guy who stoops to polish his shoes.

You want to give out your torn money? The average Nigerian remembers the Aboki that sells sugar cane.

Every Hausa man is a Muslim and thus a BokoHaram member.

Every Hausa man is an illiterate and deserves to be treated less after all "it is his brothers that are killing us"

YET!

If you are looking for an honest person - meet the Hausa man.

If you are looking for someone who will help you innocently - meet the Hausa man

I'm not here to argue, I only want to share with us what has been on my mind. When I see the average Hausa man, I see someone who finds happiness in the midst of pain. I see their innocence, I see how they are open in business, I admire the fact that an Hausa man would hardly cheat me.

I doubt, I so sincerely doubt if any other tribe can swallow the kind of insults we hurl on these guys per second both by words and actions.

It is so unfair to hate on an entire tribe because of a particular sect. It is unfair to take advantage of the mental vulnerability of some people. It is unfair to oppress innocent people because they are helpless.

It is unfair to think you are better than some people because you are educated and favored.

It is unfair to tag every Hausa man "Boko Haram" because not all are.

Let's stop the hate! Don't punish innocent people for sins they did not commit.

Treat them well, they are humans too.
