anonymous6: just their nature, i should think. even in nigeria they're the same way. they're in the US also but i dont think they mix much with southern nigerians possibly because of compatibility issues. 3 Likes |

I've met a few and few times been mistaken for Hausa. @OP I once believed that perhaps religion was another factor. I thought they may have favoured countries such as KSA as an abroad location due to faith (pertaining to those that are Muslims) which may facilitate in settling in ![]() However despite that Hausa can be taught here in the UK.

most of the hausas in the u.k are mostly concentrated in the southampton, bournmouth, portsmouth areas, and when they are in london. they live in the high brow areas. thats why we seldom see them around. also they are good in minding their business i have also meet some of them in manchester. you can easily pass dem for people from other parts of africa due to their dressing mode. 2 Likes |

muyo2001: so basically they would be more closer to a hausa from Niger then a Igbo or yoruba from their own country of Nigeria; one thing I also notice about them is their religion is their culture, their religion overides their culture in a way. Up til this day I'm yet to know their culture completely just their muslim religion 7 Likes |

I am Hausa from republic of Niger ,living in United states for over 8 years. I've met lot of Nigerians,and none of them believed me when I said I am Hausa. They said my accent doesn't sound west African. In my apartment complex ( Indianapolis) ,there are some Yoruba next door,and they never knew that my wife and I are Hausa til they heard us speaking Hausa . One guy was like " are you Hausa ?",and I said yes ,we are Hausa from Zinder- Niger ...lol They confused us with Sudanese or Somalis,because of the way my wife dressed and our accent. There are lot of Hausa in United states,you have to go to mosque to meet them,and if you ever doubted seeing one,you might confuse him/her to Sudanese,unless you ask his/her nationality. 13 Likes 1 Share |

There are tons of Hausa's in London and I went to uni with a few of them. However, most of them don't live among other Nigerians - they tend to live around Arabs. Just go to Edgware road - all the way to Neasden - and you'll see quite a lot of them there. West London also has a decent Hausa population. Anyway, if you're a Muslim - Hausa's aren't hard to find especially if attend the big mosques. ![]() ![]() ![]() 21 Likes 1 Share |

pleep: Because they are not Nigerians they are actually awera rebublicans and should be in a serparate country. (the fulani should be driven into the sea) lol, funny though because some people say that hausa and fulani act differently from the rest of Nigeria when it comes to swagger, mentality and etc, that in a way when people do meet them face to face it's hard for them to believe they are Nigerians in general |

anonymous6: Lol we can defintely tell when we see a non hausa nigerian. But non-hausa nigerian can never tell a hausa unless you hear the lang. |
