"The Hausa ethnic group is the largest in Niger, and the majority of the population (54.1%) belong to this group. The Hausa are one of the largest ethnic groups in all of Africa and are scattered across West Africa, with most making up the majority of the population in Nigeria, as well as Niger. The Hausa people in Niger speak the Hausa language as part of the greater Afro-Asiatic family and also speak French, English, and Arabic. Most Hausa people live in small towns and mostly raise livestock, work as farmers and conduct trade. The horse is a major symbol of the Hausa people, as it is closely associated with the aristocracy and their equestrian based culture." Source: worldatlas

Core Northern Nigeria and Niger Republic should be one country.
E no go better for colonialist wey join Niger Delta minorities with cannibal Ibos in Eastern Region.

Ok i finally get, in Niger hausa and fulani are 3 separate tribes and people while in Nigeria they are the same tribe and people .God that shamed king nebuchadnezzer is till alive

That's Why They are Behaving Like Malu🐄🐄..........When you have Cows🐄 as Majority in a Country, how the Country wan take Progress Forward.

Now am beginning to think the Military Juntas are actually the best Leaders to lead this Cows.

ECOWAS should Please Leave this Cows to their Herders jejely jejely.

The europeans mess up with the way subsaharan-africa was divided and merged. Not being united is one of the reason Nigeria is in this mess we find ourselves in today.

Meanwhile when you hear Buhari talks about Niger Republic, one may be tempted to think that the killer fulanis are the major ethnic group there.

In the first place, should they have had any business in Africa, apart from ”trade”.

I wander if Dan fodio also conquered Hausa lands in Niger republic too.

Make we send our Hausa go join them

The Europeans partitioned Africa in the most dumb way possible. Togo was unjustly divided into two, French and British mandates. The French mandate was granted independence in 1960 while the British Togo mandate was merged with Ghana, the volta region.

Looking at Nigeria, southern Nigeria have nothing in common with northern Nigeria. The North could've been just another francophone country like Niger Republic, Chad, Benin Republic or CAR.

It's unfortunate we're stock together in this unequal strange bed fellow affair.

Wow

Northern Nigeria and Niger Republic are supposed to be a country
Same culture, religion, fauna topography and landscape
Same cattle mentality

And so?

See the state of Niger and see why they don't want Nigeria to seperate.

Fuullllsss catch cold whenever Hausa is mentioned,I'm not Hausa but they are better than most of your wicked tribes out there

That's why they are migrating to nigeria everyday. Nigeria supposed to be a peaceful and a Blessed nation. But because of too many immigrants, from neighbouring country we. Come reach 200mil.
These guys are bringing nonchalant behavior, if you trace most of our leaders , the are not Nigerians. ..the Same niger people are also in our immigration.

Wow 😳

I was there in 2008 for stone bizness..
for Sokoto border na we Dey wake immigration people from sleep to stamp our passport … anyone can trespass without being noticed.

In Niger they know you’re a foreigner if you try to avoid flies ..😂

ok

the US is contributing just 13% to their sustenance in a mutually beneficial relationship but they make noise about Niger as if they are entirely responsible for the livelihoods of Nigeriens

I pity the good people of Niger Republic.

Are allies in terms of trade are turning there back on them.

Everybody will feel the heat of the coup economically even if it will get better later.

The country is on the blink of loosing there sovereignty.

Lord lugard the stupid red neck agama lizard will rot in hell for what he did.

That una oil wey dey give you moral, una go soon start to dey drink am.
Other sources of energy will soon take over and there wont be any need for your oil again.

NasoLifeBe!!!

The west really under-develop Africa, truly.

Something is wrong with this statistics and the data.
There no way Hausa will be the largest ethnic group in Niger republic
I believe they just concluded that anyone who speaks the Hausa language is from Hausa ethnic group....this is why westerners should not be allowed to tell our story.

Noted.
