Let's See How Many Northerners Are Active On Nairaland by fiizznation: 9:56am On Mar 06, 2016 |
Over the years we were made to believe that there are very few northerners on this forum. Well anyway I choose not to believe this notion. Of course there are many northerners(e.g myself) on this forum but for some reasons best known to them, they hardly drop any comment here. They few ones i was very fortunate to have come across on this forum were very intelligent and mature e.g arewafederation, nduchuks etc. Lol, I guess the others have chosen to be mere spectators and not contributors. Please this thread was solely created for the northerners here and its purpose is for my fellow northerners to identify themselves. So please all troublemakers should stay clear from this thread. If you are a northerner here, please I.D yourself by answering these five(5) questions below; 1• state the particular region(NW, NC, NE) you are from 2• Tell us your state of origin 3• Your best local northern dish 4• What you particularly like about the other two major ethnic groups(yorubas and igbos) in Nigeria. 5• What you think is the major problem facing our north and provide your solution in tackling the problem. This thread is an inclusive thread and all sons and daughters from northern Nigeria are all welcome to contribute in this discuss. Lalasticlala, mynd44, seun and the hosts of other mods, please it will really be appreciated if this thread is push to the homepage for more participation and further contributions. 6 Likes 1 Share |

* Shamsudeen is my name * From kaduna State (you should know the region) * Best local dish... Tuwon shinkafa with moringa stew. * I grew up amidst major and minor tribes : My likes about the Yoruba's is their zeal for knowledge, and perseverance for entrepreneurship. The Igbos are good business partners with the north from time.I admire their industrious zeal. Recall,that Taiwan started like the Igbo's are doing now ,and Taiwan is leading today,despite all the mockery,on sub standards produced. * The problem of the north is the north itself to be frank. Pre and post civil war attributes of the Hausa man,is that of : Money loving, Power loving,Aggressive,Militant,and Domineering. This is best described in the Hausa adage that: "You cannot win a city in battle,except you engage an insider" The few unfortunate moles amongst us created the northern problem(s) My honest opinions... *solutions in tackling our problems..well that's for another thread. 29 Likes 4 Shares |

Let me start from myself Well I'm from Northwest, from kano state precisely. My favourite local dish is dambu What I like about the igbos is that they are industrious in nature and the yorubas are very creative. I believe the biggest problem facing our north is highly corrupt/bad leaders who put themselves first before the masses. We should always hold our leaders(from councillors to the highest office holders) accountable, their promises must always be kept 14 Likes |

I am from the North East. Gombe State. My favorite Northern food is the famous Fura da Nono... The solutions to our problems here in the North lies on our leaders efforts in creating jobs to our teeming jobless youths. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Wow I love this, But it could have been better if tribe is specifically mentioned. So other tribes can learn the northerners well because as it is now we see all northerners as Hausa which shouldn't be. More grease to your elbow op 23 Likes |

I'm humbled by the comment of the Northerners here. It tells us that those causing trouble in the North are really criminals and are detested. Still hope for Nigeria. 15 Likes 2 Shares |

I'm from the NW Kaduna State Favourite dishes are Sinasir and dambu I like Yorubas in fact i relate very well with them, they are educated and intelligent. I like Igbos because they are not lazy. There are numerous problems with the north prominent among which is leadership, our leaders in the north have failed us. 15 Likes 3 Shares |

From Niger state, north central. Favourite dish is tuwon shinkafa and bean soup with fresh fish stew I have a lot of friends from other regions, having spent most of my life in lagos, kaduna and served (nysc) in Uyo. So i use beautiful memories from the gud friends to reflect on the ibos and yoruba av encountered. However, a number of people from all regions are suffering from nepotism and bigotry which has beclouded them from appreciating the beauty of our diversity n togetherness. I love my country, Nigeria! 5 Likes 1 Share |
