This is very true. I live in Malaysia where there r lots of Hausa/fulani people. But they rarely cause trouble or make noise. They r always together in one close unit without been extravagant or lousy. Good ambassadors!

No cows maybe... Just a guess

you just spoilt your business.. Wanted to buy you data, but seeing this your silly comment on us stopped me.

Without Hazard no Chelsea?
Without Yaya Toure no Man City?
Without Gerrard no Liver Pool?
Without Rooney no Man United?
Without _______ no Arsenal?

There are lots of Fulani people in Europe and the Americas, I don't know about Hausas though.

LOL@This thread, people classifying Fulani and Hausa in one group when we are two very different groups.

it's sad you can't catch a joke.

men this thread is pointless bcoz Hausa n Fulani travel abroad on purpose not for unnecessary lyk u thought of and when u talk of educated elite take
Nigeria as example u will surely get answers

There seems to be a lot of them though in Scotland

I'm surprised this thread has gone this far, I'm just seeing this thread after the last time I checked it, thanks everyone for your answers it is interesting to know there are many Hausa's and Fulanis abroad

jpphilips:

UK, is majorly a christian state, if you wanna see hausa- fulani try, Qatar, UAE, Saudi and much recently Turkey
How many times have you visited Saudi as a supposed christian?

understood, I get it, based on the answers religion is part of the reason at times where people migrate to a extent. Majority of the Nigerians I have bumped into have been nigerians of southern tribes, mostly yoruba and igbo.

abdulplayer02:
so you have been to the uk but you are still making such mistake:peopleS

I'm Nigerian american, born and raised in America and have visited the UK but have never bumped into a hausa or a fulani in the UK. In America only twice. So sorry if thats disappointing to you

Thats how the author(who is also Fulani) of the article which this thread is about titled it, click the link and you will see: http://hausanigerian..com/2011/03/why-you-dont-meet-many-hausa-people.html

The article gives some insight but not entirely true. Am Hausa/fulani though a Christian, however I know having lived/living in western Europe and north America, I know there are alot of hausa/fulanis comunities here.religion though play a role but very inconsequential. They stay away from overal Nigerian comunities because they are not into parties and other social vices that plagued alot of our southern brothers and sisters. Another reason, an average southerner sees an hausa or fulani person as dulard and unintelligent I experienced that alot in my church even though by far I am well more educated and than majority of them. So I I'd rather hangout with hausa Muslims than alot of some southern Christians. For instance there was a day the pastor of my church referred to boko haram as my brothers even though he has known me for over 5 years as a Christian, he still sees me more as a northerner than Christian child of God and that's very myopic even though I corrected that impression,it still hurts to be referred to as brother to Boko Haram. Don't get me wrong I have alot of southerners as confidents and friends, my fiancee is even an igbo girl.

interesting thanks for your answer

She is Hausa. If she can't speak Fulfulde and only Hausa then she is Hausa. The two cultures are quite different.

A wonanni pullo Sam! To a Pullo, halanam e fulfulde!

Calling Fulani and Hausa the same thing is very disrespectful. It's like calling a Yoruba and Igbo the same thing.

Fulaman198:

understood, I'm learning more and more that fulanis and Hausa's are different now

anonymous6:

Yeah she even says so in her article:

'But the Hausa and Fulanis- two distinct groups united by Islam, inter-marriage and history- remain mysterious to many Nigerians abroad due to their relative invisibility.'

RaymondRay:
Simple: They're local champions that thrive in lawlessness and disorder, the kind seen in Nigeria. They get claustrophobic in organized societies with actual laws and regulations so they don't bother making the trip. Countries like Yemen, Pakistan, and Afghanistan are more likely the places you see them vacationing to.

I don't think you know what you talking about. Right now I can think of like 10 families living in the UK and not in any of the countries u listed above. I can think of lots of families in the US as well. You clearly just know the local ones that are lawless just like most Nigerians. And The hausas are the lawful Nigerians in the UK. You can't see them doing any dodgy thing and you can't see them living there illegally. Stop being a bigot pls! And ofcourse you can mistake them for East Africans or even black Arabs.

I am hausa - fulani. My dad is hausa and my mum is fulani.

JayJustus:
nope cos they are only lab rats and terrorists that believe in 70 virgins when they are used as bombing puppets... nansense!!! get those mofos another country of their own... a southerner will never agree to use his or her kid for bombing all in the name of fighting for Allah...let Allah fight for himself if He is God... a southerner will never give out his 13 year old childs hand in marriage to a guy that raped her (gang rape)... stooopppiidddd mofos that should be kept in a circus with your hybrids


PS. God doesn't need mere humans to fight for Himself He will fight His battles...so STOP KILLINGS HAUSA PEOPLE!

You need prayers bro. Allah ya shirya.

Carterh:

Cool good for you, not all of us are Hausa-Fulani though. Just straight up Fulani here

Carterh:

Which culture is dominant in your home? That is the discerning criterium.
If it is Hausa culture, language and customs- then you are Hausa, not Fulani.
And vice- Versa

CALL A SPADE A SPADE HAUSA AMD FULLANIS ARE NOT NIGERIANS MAYBE MEMBERS OF A DIFFERENT COUNTRY.

Are you on drugs? Bantus are not Nigerians at all. If we go by history, no one are Nigerians. Why do Bantus sometimes not speak with intelligence?

Loool! You've adopted the whole bantu thing too? But I don't get what these idiotts mean when they claim a certain ethnicity is not Nigerian. Wtf does that mean? Nigeria was formed in 1914, so wtf is their point?

Hey, I asked this question before, but you ignored it: What's your ethnicity?

Well his name is Gbantu, so I assume he is Bantu. I don't get it either

That's still 2 identities not one.
Hausa-Fulani as one group doesn't exist.
It's like a mulatto saying I'm spanish-moroccan, that's two identities !

You have a point but people are used to hearing hausa-fulani together as one group and non of these groups make a effort to make a separation from each other culturally since religion rules everything in northern Nigeria.

You will be looked at in a funny manner if you mention "Hausa-Fulani" in any African country outside of Nigeria. They are two very different groups with only religion in common. Cameroon, Niger Republic, Chad, Burkina Faso, Mali, Senegal, Guinea, Guinea Bissau all know the difference.

what are you talking about?? London streets paved with gold? Please edit that sh*t.

thats true with other african countries because they know better but outside Africa its another story
