15:50 May 11 2018 Nigeria

Description

Even you Emir of Kano has lamented that you people are the most backward ethnic groups in Africa. All the beggars in Nigeria, gatemen and shoe skinners are Hausa Fulani. The banks, TV stations and Newspapers including this vanguard you are reading belongs to the Southerners. Our children are in schools while you are in forests with cows. Who now are slaves? What a mockery!!
