Stop misleading people please.

The Hausa people or tribe are an ethnic group that lives in the northwestern region of Nigeria and the southern region of Niger. The Fulani people are another ethnic group that also inhabits these regions. While the Hausa population is much larger, some Fulani have managed to position themselves as a ruling class among the Hausa.

What you are saying doesn't add up at all, okay for example I know of the Bayajidda Legend and the narrative of the Hausa Bakwai
They aren't referred to as Hausas originally but Hausa speakers:
That is
Daura
Kano
Katsina
Zaria (Zazzau/Zegzeg)
Gobir
Rano
Hadejia (Biram)


Also we know of Hausa Banza meaning Hausa Bastard or Illegitimate States based on the fact that they called them their slaves, this includes;

Zamfara
Kebbi
Yauri
Gwari
Kwararafa
Nupe

The historical narrative doesn't add up at all, my fact finding made me realize that it was created solely for the purpose of control and nothing more. The Fulani updating the Oral Myth passed from Generation to generation.

The Question is this how come Nupe are considered to be Hausas when they don't speak Hausa, how come Gwari are considered as Hausas when they don't speak Hausa.
Bauchi alone as a State has 78 different languages.

I remember coming in contact with a Young Man, a native of Katsina who told me he isn't an Hausa neither a Fulani and I was shocked.

I repeat again Hausa is just a language spoken even in Sudan and Eritrea nothing more than that. The only sad part of it is that many northerners have lost their ethnicity and originality to the invasion of the Berbers who came in to establish the Hausa and Fulani kingdom

ellalina:
Especially with the prominent Politicians like Buhari, Atiku,Elrufai, Lamido, Yaradua, etc
Who are the Hausas, who are the Fulani and what is the relationship between them and lastly,what is the fine line between them.
Please note this is strictly for education purposes

First there isn't actually a tribe called Hausa, it's only a language spoken in 14 African Countries. The north has upward of 400 Languages and Ethnic groups, Fulani is one of the minority few. For their agenda to flourish they had to lump up Hausa and Fulani and thereby appoint Fulanis as Emirs for the sake of power broking

Egypt learns how not to float a currency from Nigeria’s mistakes

Lolade Akinmurele

March 7, 2024

Nigeria may have put the cart before the horse with its floatation of the naira, but Egypt has made no such mistake.

It was hardly a surprise when Egypt devalued its currency on Wednesday after over a year of a flawed peg to the dollar that drained liquidity in the foreign exchange market and caused the official and unofficial exchange rates to fly apart.

Devaluation bets had swirled around Egypt for months as analysts grew bolder in their predictions that the Egyptian pound would be devalued for the fourth time in two years.

They were emboldened by the worsening scarcity of dollars in the economy and the lack of investor confidence in the monetary policy regime.

UK-based HSBC bank had in December 2023 projected a devaluation of the Egyptian pound by 40 percent in the first quarter of this year.

That prediction has turned out to be the most accurate after the Central Bank of Egypt (CBE) finally bit the bullet and devalued the currency by 38 percent to 50 EGP per US dollar from 30.8 EGP. The CBE said it will allow the currency trade freely against the dollar from hereon.

While the devaluation was widely expected, it was the action that preceded it that caught many off guard and may prove the difference in whether Cairo’s latest devaluation pays off.

In an unscheduled meeting on the same day the currency was devalued, the CBE hiked interest rates by a record 600 basis points in one fell swoop, its biggest rate hike yet.

Analysts and investors say the central bank was laying the groundwork for a successful currency float by first raising interest rates by a record before devaluing the pound.

This was done in realisation of the fact that devaluing the currency may not be sufficient to lure dollars into the economy if interest rates were not raised to make local debt attractive to foreign investors.

“Egypt learnt how not to float a currency from Nigeria,” a foreign investor who did not want to be named told BusinessDay.

“By first raising market rates before devaluing the pound, Egypt didn’t put the cart before the horse like Nigeria did,” the investor said.

Nigeria has also had to devalue the naira twice in the space of nine months but the gains have been thin.

The first devaluation was in June following the election of President Bola Tinubu who wasted no time in delivering bold reforms that had been stuck for years.

Experts have said the reforms are needed to put Africa’s most populous nation on track but were hurriedly made without considering its ripple effects on the citizens, especially the vulnerable.

The naira devaluation in June which paved the way for a 40 percent decline in the currency should have been preceded by a number of moves that the CBN is belatedly implementing.

Monetary experts have roundly commended the move but are of the view that floating the naira should never have come before the monetary tightening the CBN is now embarking on while measures should have also been put in place to boost dollar supply.

“Before floating naira, which by the way is a good move, the CBN should have started mopping the excess naira liquidity in the market,” a leading Nigerian economist who did not want to be named said.

“Secondly, there should have been plans to attract the required amount of dollars necessary to ensure the CBN can intervene in the market whenever the naira was under undue pressure,” the economist said.

Nigerians are bearing the brunt of the poorly planned reforms despite their long term gains, with inflation peaking at a 19-year high of 29.9%, businesses shutting down and unemployment rising.

The tough times won’t last, however, according to Benedict Oramah, president of the African Export-Import Bank (Afreximbank), reforms were necessary to revamp the country’s economy, stressing that things will soon return to normal.

“Nigeria’s choice to float the Naira and remove petrol subsidy are the right decisions,” said Oramah.

“Once you have been able to stabilise the exchange rate, prices will adjust, markets will adjust, and things will return to normal,” he added.

Time will tell if Egypt did the right thing but first hiking rates before the devaluation. In the meantime, Nigeria is learning the hard way to be more deliberate and coordinated with policy action

I used to work.. Where I used to work they paid for accommodation and feeding for like 6years. Within the 6years I have saved like 8 million naira. The work crashed.. I have set up a business which does not require more than 2million to start and maintain .. I'm comfortable with it.. For like 1year now I have had like 6million+ in my second account I have not touched. I don't know what to invest in and I'm afraid of loosing the money on wrong investment..
I'm now regretting not buying usdt when it was 700 naira.. I have lost a lot to crypto in the past so I have decided to have nothing to do with it again in my life. The decision still remains and that's the final ...

So now I know it's stupid to keep such amount of money in the bank without investment especially in this our unstable economy. I have thought everything possible and safe to invest in..

I'm 28years old and I live alone.. Na my whole saving be this and I don't want to loose it 😪😪. I wish I can build house with it 😫. I don't want to marry abeg.

I need advice on the business to run with my money and it must be online

I don’t want to waste this 9.5 million naira

Ponzi is too risky

It's not about starting an online business but having something that is scaleable. My advice behave as if you only have 100k to 500k and not 9.5 then you can achieve the best.

Reduce your rate of risk until you have the adequate knowledge, skills and man power for your choice, but you can consider the following

A middle man platform for real estate
Middle man platform for International trades
E-commerce
Classified Ad

Your focus should be on creating a product or service that is scaleable and owned by a company.

To start with avoid spending more than necessary, start small grow big


If you are interested in any of the above I can help you with product and customer development

Meanwhile I provide business consulting for easy entry into starting a tech business if you are interested chat me up on 08089456258

Moneyboyz:
Early last year I was motivated to start a beer distribution business, I did my research bought the land and constructed the building.

Unfortunately for me, I didn't know someone is selling just few blocks to where I acquired the land. Although the competitor was a small scale but I do not want to compete because there is also a coke/pepsi depot right next to it.

I've decided to go into manufacturing but I'm not sure what I could do. I need ideas and possible the required capital that would start it.

Please no pure water factory suggestions.

Thank you.

Why don't you just rent the warehouse out and consider localizing your intended manufacturing somewhere else

Kobojunkie:
God means Judge? Are you for real? So if a mother said those words of her sons you would equally come up with the conclusion that mother means Judge?

Una reasoning dey tire person abeg!

Your analogy doesn't fall in at all. Go and study and come back stop using common sense. let me give you hints, check out for Hebrew Translation for Elohim and stop disgracing yourself

Kobojunkie:
Religionists and their pick-and-chose theologies!!
What aspect of the passage below which is Isaiah 42 when taken in context says any of what you have alluded to on this thread?
The above is God of Israel scolding the people of Israel who would not listen to Him nor do as He had commanded of them, all before He then used the Assyrian army to destroy the nation of Israel during the period around 720BC.

Negative critic and ITK, does that negate the fact that I said God means Judge, did I in any way that they were being scolded. It's unfortunate you are showing your emptiness

Jackanda1:
i would love to know this Bible portion.

Isaiah 42:21
Present your case,” says the LORD. “Submit your arguments,” says the King of Jacob ~ Berean Standard Version

Jackanda1:
I read a book from Evang. Kenneth Hagin, where he said that his wife was supposed to be operated for 'goiter' disease.

So he decided to pray and jesus appeared to him saying that accordng to divine plan, his wife was supposed to die when operated for the disease, but because he prayed she would live.

I studied the Bible further. In 2kings20:1-7, hezekiah prayed and GOD added 15yrs to him even after initially giving him a dead sentence.

Even Jesus when overcome with sorry at some point asked if God could change his will.(matt26:34)

In Gen18:26-32, Abraham negotiated with God about sparing sodom and gomorah, assuming there were 50 righteous people in it. And God consented.

In Jonah3:10, God changed his mind from destroying Neniveh when they repented.

God also wanted to destroy Isreal and start another race through moses, but moses pleaded and the bible says God changed his mind. (Exo32:14)

These are few Scriptures that imply its possible to change God's plan through prayers.

What's do you think?

The word God in the Bible is primarily the word Elohim meaning Judge and I believe you know that prayer is a legal term that has to do with soliciting and requesting a Lord to provide mercy. So that means prayers can change God's mind or plan about something
That is why a particular verse encourage us to bring our strong reasons

Yankee101:
Intercontinental bank collapse has nothing to do with the 2008 stock market crash

And the 2008 stock market crash was about subprime mortgages

Nigeria didn’t have any deep derivative market or even a significant mortgage portfolio.

Lastly, Nigerian banks collapsing was a process that began pre 2008
