this lady sef.... i no sure say she ever liv Kenya..... if she has then she's never been to naija

No she's a Kenyan woman that thinks lighter-complexioned Nigerians are unfathomable because she doesn't know anything about Nigeria or the Sahel.

Fulaman198:


Exactly dear it's like putting

Hausa/Kanuri together

or

Fulbe/Mande or some other ridiculous thing. Both groups deserve the respect to be recognized as individuals.

I like including groups Fulaman. I have no problem with Hausa Fulani or FulaManinka as long ad the culture is shared. But I understand your position though. As long as fulfulde is spoken, I am fine.

tpiadotcom:


Fulani in Nigeria are not called Pullo.

Pullo is a term used by the Fula closer to the north Atlantic ocean, and is French.

Pullo is the true name of fulanis. Peul is used by the french and they borrowed it from the Wolof.

Fulaman198:

Is that so little brother? How are your studies coming along?

Why was my comment deleted? there was absolutely nothing offensive nor was there anything negative in my two lines phrases comments, Fulaman, you deleted my comments for no good reason, you are a self loathing little thug.

Just imagine if you were one of those African president.

Lol. There's a pouting trend going on, I guess your fulani women aren't left out.

Your comment was deleted because people need to be protected from fake "anthropologists" who have the mind of six year olds and can't comprehend African phenotypical diversity.

Fulaman198:

The poor girl's psyche has been so been battered by east African inferiority complex next to their Ethiopia/Somali and Arab neighbours that she is trying to project that to West Africa where the term "BANTU" is seldom used.

In fact I dare this fake travelling Anthropologist to trying using thie term anywhere in West Africa and see the dumb look she will get.

God know I will marry Fulani girl

I'm glad my present gf na fulani

I'm from Adamawa State, Mayo Belwa

I really like you, you're a true traditionalist. I think the hausa ethnicity has been defiled by other northern tribes including your fellow fulanis or pullo or fulbe or whatever. You can see why I, a one hundred percent ethnic hausa bloke may find offense to that. I like that you're calling your pullo brothers like this confused OP to order. Everybody should stay true to his/her roots.

Dont you think with others embracinf your language and your culture to some extent, you should be proud of it? I mean Hausas are assimilating other Northern ethnic groups. We are exchanging on this platform with a language created by white folks afterall. I am sure the English are happy to see their language conquer the world.

Well to be honest I feel bad for those northern ethnic groups because if things continue like this, in a few decades those ethnic groups will cease to exist.

It does not seem like you feel sorry for them. You said Hausa has been defiled by other ethnic groups. Though I believe Fulfulde will be revived in the Northwest and continue to grow in Northeast, I think what makes Northern Nigeria strong as a political region is its relative unity language and religion wise despite the multitude of ethinicities . You should retain and be proud of it. I wish more people in Northern Nigeria spoke fulfulde . The more your language is borrowed by others, the richer and more prestigious it becomes.

...

Omarbah:

Actually I do. Why else do I worry about their tribe or ethnicity going extinct.

You said Hausa has been defiled by other ethnic groups

.
Yes, you mentioned how we're communicating in English, but we know we are not english, we just happen to peak their language, the moment we start calling ourselves english men or Norse men or whatever... then we've defiled their ethnicity.

I beg to differ, your people are abandoning their language, most of them don't even know how to speak it or care to learn. A good example is a good friend of mine whose paternal and maternal grand parents are both fulbe but he doesn't speak the language, and he detests people calling him fulbe. It really baffles me, if this continues, in the next decade, your language will surely face extinction.

Though I believe Fulfulde will be revived in the Northwest and continue to grow in Northeast,

I can't argue with your wisdom here.

So do I, I wish all my hausa brothers spoke fulfulde while retaining their identity as Hausas. I am in support of that but abandoning your roots is something that makes me sick to the stomach.

I wish more people in Northern Nigeria spoke fulfulde . The more your language is borrowed by others, the richer and more prestigious it becomes.

Just like Fulaman mentioned it to you, in the northeast part of nigeria, the language is still alive. The funny thing is, fulfulde is the lingua franca in Northern Cameroon, everyone speaks it.
You are wrong to think fulfulde will be extinct. Fulbe live as far as Senegal, Guinea , Mali and Mauritania and the language is well alive, spoken and written.
Those fulanis in the Northwest that abandonned their language did not do it because they hate it. They chose Hausa not only because it is easier to learn but also everyone around them speak it. Unlike other areas that Fulanis had taken, it seems like in Hausaland, they were more benevolent I guess to the proximity of the two cultures.

Read the Nairaland rules:

8. Don't post false information on Nairaland. Also, you posted some very immature curse words. Profane language is prohibited.

I think it goes beyond that. She thinks having mixed children is some sort of blessing and that "negroids" are somehow inferior. The terminology negroid is also an outdated one that's how I knew she wasn't an anthropologist.

Even in Sudan and Chad Fulfulde is thriving. In Mali, it is the 2nd most spoken language after Bamankan (Bambara). In every country of West Africa Fulfulde/Pulaar is spoken so the language will never disappear.

I have no issue with them as well Fulamaninka (Wasulu/Wassolou), Hausa-Fulbe, etc. etc. but most of the time when the Fulbe mixes with another group they adopt that groups language. Most Wasulu can't speak Fulfulde/Pulaar they only speak a Mande language. Most Fulbe/Songhai mixes (Gabero) only speak Sonrai/Songhai/Zarma.

I am a Nigerian, I can only speak for my country and I project that in Nigeria things are not looking good for fulfulde. Maybe not in other countries but Nigerian fulbes have a lot of work to do.

Lol! In Northern Nigeria, even though sharing a homogenous culture despite varying ethnicities is an important and vital reason for our unity, we must not get carried away and forget those other cultures. For instance I like it when kanuris person is getting married, kanuri culture is exhibited. But when they abandon that for hausa cultural wedding then its sad. Why? Lol! Maybe I'm being too strict because I come from a monoethnic bloodline, maybe my mixed hausa lads might disagree but don't you think that such acts of abandonement is a cause for concern?

No you are right, I don't really mind African cultures borrowing from other African cultures like Ngas borrowing from Hausa and vice versa, or Kanuri borrowing from Hausas and Fulbe and vice versa. But we must do whatever we can to maintain these beautiful cultures. It's better than copying and losing our cultures to white men. Always better to wear a Babban riga over a suit and tie for instance.
