You don't get it.

Hausa is a major Ethnic group in Nigeria(Yes, granted) but here in Ghana it's more like a minor group or tribe and that's the main reason why @Just30 says it's a language.

Hausa is spoken by mostly the Muslim people in Ghana especially those in the North and many of the people that speak Hausa belong to different Tribes up North.

We don't call them an Ethnic group here in Ghana

I am talking of general Hausa not Ghana Hausa

go back to the post the dumb30 guy started talking trash on
I was not talking about Ghana hausa

Just30:
You are just a dumb kid who know nothing

you're a disgrace to Ghana

Just30:
Hausa, Toubou, Kanuri people in Nigeria come from those empires

Also, Timbuktu existed far before Nok and it manuscripts are the oldest you will find...

I've noticed that you like creating your own history

Just30:
Hausa, Toubou, Kanuri people in Nigeria come from those empires

Also, Timbuktu existed far before Nok and it manuscripts are the oldest you will find...

they don't have origin in those empires

they were part of those empires

just like Nigeria was once part of the British empire

does that mean a Nigerian is from the UK?


see just how dumb you are?

Just30:
like I told you, those are people who lost their heritage and found common factor with the language and decided to bound themselves together in Nigeria..

But Hausa itself is not Ethnic

you're very wrong

you're just a delusional person

Just30:
go and tell a Viking that his group is extinct and see the slap you will receive...

All their languages still exist and is well studied

Dumb kid

you're now grasping onto a straw
theres nobody that is even up to 50% Viking or whatever anymore


they've mixed out with other Europeans

their languages are just scraps,nobody can speak them anymore


you're just disgracing yourself

Just30:
According to those manuscripts Nok was just a small village of few people..

We are talking about empires that held people in the thousands with it boundaries...
Timbuktu is even more older than Nok and it was a far bigger community than it..

All ethnic groups from Mauritania Togo, majority of BENIN and Nigeria trace their route to the Ghana Mali Songhai empires ...
Base on the migration routes.

now I know you're deranged
nok is far older than timbouctou
and Timbuktu wasn't even settled as a permanent place until the 13th century

and Nok was not just a small village

it took almost all of central Nigeria

and no group in Nigeria has anything to do with your Ghana old kingdom

I don't think I can talk to you again

Just30:
None of those groups are extinct... If you don't know, just say you don't know.

those groups are totally extinct
theyve lost their languages and theyve mixed out


stop trying to pretend that you're smart


you're dumb!

Just30:
even Ivorian Hausa speakers are a combination of different tribes and Ethnic groups.. and same can be said for Sudan, Mali, Burkina Faso and all the countries I mentioned before.

Learn and be able to make sensible arguments

you're just disgracing yourself bro

I already told you

anybody can speak the Hausa language
but there is still a super ethnicity called Hausa with at least 55 million people

choke on that

Just30:


The Nile valley was fertile ground and Many East African and South African tribes claim origin from around it, as it was closer to many other civilization for trade.

You dumb illiterate , learn

you don't know anything

and you still brag
that's your main problem

this has totally nothing to do with trade

Yoruba for instance has a lot to do with the Nile Valley and there was nothing like trade


you need to stop disgracing yourself bro

Abohboy:


You clearly don't know anything about history

Ancient Ghana empire was founded or at least as far as we know actually became large around 300AD

Meanwhile Nok had already covered land the northern extremities of Nigeria past the confluence and had been working Iron and clay since about 1000BC

Nsibidi script has been found on over a thousand monoliths spread out in an area that covers Cameroon, Cross River State and Abia State in Nigeria and they date to about 2000BC

Both are way way older then the Ancient Ghana empire the most likely case is that these people already lived there and already had established nations and languages then those from Ancient Ghana came as refugees and brought aspects of their culture into other parts of Africa

The Ancient Ghana empire is too young for you to be claiming that it is the origin of All West African groups maybe it's the origin of the Asante but it isn't the origin of any ethnic group in Nigeria or Benin and that includes the Fon and the Ga.

that guys obviously knows nothing

imagine comparing Nok's age to timbouctou

Tibimabln:
Mynd44

yes

he is an illiterate

and you're pained that he is

Just30:
How are entire ethnic groups across the entire West Africa just a few refugees?
Even Timbuktu existed before Gao and Nok

But the majority of people existed in the Empire while Timbuktu, Gao and Nok were small villages

do you know how old nok civilisations are at all?

Just30:
None of those groups are extinct... If you don't know, just say you don't know.


Everyone knows that West Africa was barren and all the people here migrated from within the Sahara and not North Africa...
Change in climate conditions and constant attacks is what drove them south to West Africa.

Don't make those dumb mistakes again.


Go and learn proper history and stop delving in lies and stupid arguments.

can you explain why many ethnicities claim origin from the nile valley?

and most of the Sahara is in north Africa
you this illiterate

vankelvin:
[/b]

That's in Ghanaian context Ghanaian Hausa people are not considered an ethnic group. We consider them as a Tribe not an Ethnic group

oh!

so ghana Hausa is a combination of different "tribes"?

you're just as dumb as dumb30

Just30:
Actually they do....

Go and learn, the internet is a free tool for you to use and see all the Romanic conquest which are well documented.

You are really dumb, do you mean that the Celtic and Slavic are extinct ? Or do you mean the Franks and the Saxons are extinct?

You think they study history in their country for nothing ? Even their names have origin to pinpoint a particular tribe..

Don't be dumb, history is how the US has managed to hold Europe with a firm grip by playing on their tribal fears.


The highlighted comment above is super dumb

The Western Sahara civilization and Northern Saharan civilization had very little ...

You haven't finish with one dumb argument and you are already making another dumb argument.

those groups are extinct
they've mixed out and they are no longer functional

you're stupid bro
if you don't know that almost all of west Africa was barren until migration from north and east Africa

you're very delusional
you create your history and you believe it at the same time

CapitalBank:
that thing is caused by Refinery oga... Not oil sleeping in the ground.

don't play dumb

you know exactly what talking about

vankelvin:


Let say Nigeria have
Ethnic groups and their sub groups whereas
Ghana have Ethnic groups and their Tribes.

Is that simple?
This shouldn't be a debate

you should go to the beginning of the argument to understand what we talking about

that just30 guy is an illiterate

imagine saying Hausa is made up of different "tribes"
very dumb

Just30:
If you know history, you will know their tribes from the day of conquest...

There are several Scottish tribes that form the Scottish people

If you don't know something, don't comment on it

You have the Gaul, The Germanic tribes which are so many,.
You also have the Slavic and Celtic tribes which are so many..


Are you really this dumb ? Why are you asking me where Hausa originate from?
Don't you know that about 90% of the people in West Africa migrated from Ancient Ghana, Mali Songhai empire?

Just ask for education and you will be educated

you're very delusional
I'm saying they don't call themselves tribes!

or do they?
did you graduate University at all?!
I'll wait for you to bring a source of where they call themselves tribes


not just googling extinct groups for me

you are dumb
90% of west African peoples migrated from north Africa not any stupid ancient Ghana
abohboy see this man sha
ancient Ghana my foot

you don't know anything

CapitalBank:
Lol.. Dangote is coming with its own for Lagos people...

there is oil in delta and Bayelsa yet they don't have black rain

Just30:
which group in and do you know that is not called tribe ?

Do you want me to list several tribes in and for you?

Tribe cut across any groupings even into the animal world.


See how childish you are , you've gone to raise Nigerian wikipedian editorials?

Have you even asked yourself why Hausa is not an Ethnic group even in the countries where the language originated from?

Have you asked yourself why the the Ethnic groups who speak the language in Benin, Niger, Chad, Sudan, Mali, Ghana and etc are of different Ethnic groups?

no groups in Europe call themselves tribes
for instance where have you seen Scottish call themselves tribe or Basque? or Aryan?
you're a joke
they reserve that for Africa and other aboriginal people of the new world


where did Hausa originate from?
make I laugh small
I repeat
Hausa is spoken by other ethnic groups but is still a super ethnicity with at least 55 million people

you can decieve yourself all you want

maybe you think Hausa is like Swahili that is spoken mostly as a second language

Roan77:

Ofada rice bruh?

yeah

Just30:
Then you weren't educated well if you think tribe means ape group.

Hausa has never been an Ethnic group.. it is a language that that has been in existence and spoken by different ethnic groups and tribes in addition to their own language for generations...
From Ghana, Ivory Coast, Mali, Burkina Faso, Nigeria, Sudan , Chad, Niger and several other desert nations..

Saying Hausa is an ethnic group is like saying Arabic is an ethnic group. And that will be absurd

Arab is an ethnic group not Arabic

you like arguing on what you know nothing about
Hausa can be spoken anywhere but there is still an ethnic group called Hausa with at least 55 million people
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hausa_people

tribe (plural tribes)

1. A socially, ethnically, or politically cohesive group of people.
2. (anthropology) A society larger than a band but smaller than a state.
3. (zoology) A group of apes who live and work together.
(taxonomy) A hierarchal rank between family and genus.
4. The collective noun for various animals.
5. (stock breeding) A family of animals descended from some particular female progenitor, through the female line.

"tribe" was originally used for animals
ask yourself why groups in , etc aren't called tribes
your mind is colonised

it's not by force to post lol
you just like arguing blindly

this is what a reasonable person does


not doing unknown gunmen everywhere

Just30:

Because it is several tribes that come together to form an ethnic group base on their similarities in culture...

Sometimes their language can even be different...

Hausa is a language and not an ethnic group and it is spoken by people of various ethnic groups.

you're still dragging this rubbish

are you smart at all?
how old are you?
did you drop out of primary school?

there is nothing like "tribe"
tribes are ape groups

Hausa has subgroups same as ,Japan, Korea

I don't know Hausa well
I am Yoruba. Yoruba has about 20 groups all the way from Togo to Nigeria.
all with a total population of about 45 million
if you call those sub groups tribes then you need a check up

you're living with a colonial mindset
Hausa and Yoruba are both ethnic groups and languages with subgroups and languages

leofab:
and how many non Yorubas are in the cabinets of other remaining five states ?

Oyo has about 2
I'm sure Ogun would have too

emmykk:


This is hate speech and you should be ban from Nairaland for some time.
You foolishly narrated new thought that didn't even strike igbos mind as some of the thing that igbo hate yoruba for.
You know this much but never say anything thing the yoruba call or hate igbo about which make your write up one sided.

To your reply Bola Tinubu is a political figure and as expected should be talk about good or bad.So naming him as one thing igbo hate yoruba for is rubbish.

how n
many Yoruba hate Peter Obi or any other Igbo politician?


re read what she wrote
most of it is true

Nairaland has exposed the thinking of you guys

kmcutez:
I’m a lady but often joke that even I as a lady, I’m taller then ElRufai, a man.

I see what you did there

Kazikazi:
So u thought a guy who kill immigrant will fail to kill a business or burning tonnes of avos from the same immigrants?

at least trade is supposed to be different

Just30:
Ghana was created by the Asantes and fantes g a peace accord to end their several years of conflicts.. And later on, the northern tribes ed base on their several years of good relation with the Asantes.

The boundaries were not drawn by Europeans but rather the tribal boundaries that had already be drawn up based on conquest...

Hausa is not divided into 2 or 3 countries ....
Hausa is a language and not a tribe ... Find the actual tribe and you will know their boundaries..

you're just joking
I won't argue with you on Ghana

Hausa is an ethnic group
I don't know why you guys call ethnic groups "tribes"
the Hausa group is a super group
as large as 55 million
stop talking rubbish about what you know nothing about

DCatt:
This just brought back some stories I heard last year about what Igbos did when biafra surrendered. They said Igbos started pointing at Yoruba people's homes as theirs and so many Yoruba lost their homes especially those who didn't have documents on their homes lost them to Igbos then. The man telling this story said his father went through hell and almost lost his house. Stories like this and many other make Igbos the number one problem Yoruba have, none other is close not even Fulani. It's like when God created Yoruba the satan peeping through the window vowed he would also create his own and make them follow Yoruba.

I just want thier Biafra to come fast
these people have shown their true colours

Okhuadams:
the word Oba is an Edo nane

government in Yoruba means ìjọba

what does it mean in Bini?
the faster you accept that Edo has a lot of influence from Yoruba the better
