I underrated Badaru. It seems he is really worshipped in Jigawa. His structure and followers are powering the ADC. Even the Governor is now really scared.

The protest caught them unaware.







I’ve written on this before but the Fulani conquest of Hausaland resulted in an unusual outcome. Normally when a tribe/nation conquered another, a couple of things happen or a combination of these things: 1. A dichotomy ensues in which the conquering tribe retain its language, culture and customs at a higher level in the society while the conquered tribe retains such but on a lower level. This is evident throughout Africa with European colonization. 2. The conquered tribe losses its own culture, language and customs and adopts that of the conquering tribe again evident in Africa but also in the Maghreb with Arab conquest. None of these happened with the Fulani conquest of Hausaland. The Fulani language and nomadic way of life is viewed on a lesser level and their culture has been largely diluted in the lands they conquered. Adamawa is probably the only Kingdom that received Sheikh Usman Dan Fodio’s flag and still retain some sort of resemblance to Fulani ways. None of the other 14 or 17 “ardodi” speak or retain Fulani culture today. Take Nupe land for example, the Etsu Nupe looks aesthetically Fulani and he is by blood but everything about him and the other ruling class is Nupe, from language to customs and traditions. It’s a strange outcome, Fulani achieved political hegemony over Hausaland but lost its culture along the way. I can’t think of any other conquest that resulted in a similar outcome.
