Hausa Emancipator Challenges Fulani Elites Over School Closures During Ramadan

Hausa Emancipator dares Fulani Elites behind Schools' Closure For Ramadan

I Kaltum Alumbe Jitami use this opportunity to urge you Hausa Youth of Nigeria to be tribalistic as you seek religious knowledge. Don't rely on teachings by Fulani Imams, Ulama or Clerics. Seek to understand Islam and Christianity to know their points of convergence as both religions refer to one God.

There is no Muslim country or community in the world that shuts down their schools because of Ramadan fasting: Somalia, Iran, Egypt, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Brunei, etc. never shut down their schools because of Ramadan. Not even in Africa: Niger, Libya, Morocco, etc. they never did it.

This has happened only in Northern Nigeria, the consequence of which, among others, will retard the educational development of the region and increase poverty among the ever-growing disadvantaged Hausa people, particularly the youth. This is not far from the age-long schemes initiated by Fulani Monarchs and elites to ensure the perpetual retrogression of the Hausa people, which has been ongoing ever since the usurpation of traditional institutions of the Hausa people by the Usman Danfodiyo family, expeditionists, and usurpers.

This Fulani strategy was taken further by former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and his ilk when they built private schools for the rich, affordable to the Fulani, because they alone have cornered the greater chunk of the fortunes of the Northern region. Former President Goodluck Jonathan understood the appalling Hausa and Fulani educational disparity when he built 165 Almajiri schools in Northern Nigeria because it is only Hausa children that are schemed into the Northern Muslims Almajiri system of education that programmed them into a life of destitution and homelessness. This being the prospect of liberation of the Hausa people, no sooner President Jonathan left power, than the Fulani elites and monarchs truncated the project.

They started by maligning the person of President Jonathan and blackmailing him as the sponsor of Boko Haram, with the aim to eliminate the Hausas and Islam in Nigeria. They carried out bombings in the mosques to actually drive home their propaganda against President Goodluck Jonathan.

For speaking against the school shutdown by CAN, the Fulani elites came all out in attack against CAN. Fulani private schools in Bauchi shall remain open till 27/03/25, while special private schools attended mostly by Fulani children in Jigawa, Katsina, Kano, Kaduna, etc. well articulated with learning and comfort facilities shall continue uninterrupted. Measures to mitigate Fulani overbearance include not voting Fulani to power at any level.

Be informed that the Fulani are not Islamic but ritualists that worship their progenitor, Usman Danfodiyo; to whose grave they make weekly Thursday visits in worship and invocation of ancestral intercessions by believers.

CAN, as a Christian Association, cannot be said to be anti-Islam, for the Prophet of Islam had in the days of old, told Muslims to flee Mecca and feel free to take refuge at Herbesia where the King is a Christian, a just man. Therefore, those preaching enmity between Christians and Muslims are neither representing the Prophet (SAW) nor the Islamic religion. The Fulani elites and Imams are the ones who preach hatred and separatism among people.

They did so against Hausa brethren and caused division and hatred between Hausa Christians and Muslims. They have built separate schools for Fulani and Hausa children. They adore Thursday (Hubbbare) as a special place and a day granted for ancestral worship and sexual immortality, very dear to them, more than Fridays, but would rather have Fridays, which are days of Muslim purity, for public holidays just to provoke crisis between Muslims and Christians.

The Hausawa Tsantsa liberation struggle is uniting Hausa people and other native people of Nigeria regardless of tribe or religion. This new wave of enlightenment is what the Fulani elites and their monarchs want to thwart through the harvest of illiteracy on Hausa people by shutting down schools to hamper the rise of Hausa children in education.
