Amidst the uncertainty and insecurity in the country, an Hausa-Muslim,  Kalthoum Alumbe Jutami has written to his fellow Hausa brothers warning them to beware of the agenda of the Fulani- Muslim which has never been in the their interest.


"The Fulani want to turn us against one another while they step aside and laugh at us like they did in years past. The Fulani have nothing to lose if this country crumbles - they have stolen enough money and have armed their children. If we dare to make the mistake of fighting one another, the Fulani will come in and kill us all, from our Muslims to our Christians. Given these circumstances, we must be wise and not fall into their heinous plans", he stated in an open letter to all Hausa-Muslims in Nigeria. Excerpts:

Open Address To All Hausa Muslims In Nigeria



 By Kalthoum Alumbe Jutami


My Dear fellow Muslims, today I will address you in my capacity as a Hausa Muslim. I will speak to you as one with the fear of God and as one under the laws of Islam. My Muslim brethren, my Hausa brethren, the Fulani are bent on inciting confusion in the name of religion. Our religion is a religion of justice. Our religion is a religion of peace. My Hausa brethren, do not forget that for eight years, the Fulani have killed more than 7 million Hausas. Do not forget, my Hausa brethren, that these Hausas who were killed are all Muslims. 


Do not forget that President Buhari was elected by us, the Muslims. During Buhari's tenure, the Minister of Defense was a Fulani Muslim. The Inspector General of Police was a Fulani Muslim. The Minister of Education was a Fulani Muslim. The Minister of FCT was a Fulani Muslim. The Minister of Finance, along with every other strategic position you can imagine, were all manned by Fulani Muslims. All the governors in Hausa land: Zamfara, Sokoto, Kebbi, Kaduna, Katsina, Kano, Jigawa, were all Fulani Muslims. In all the killings against us, the Hausas, have any of them ever said anything? 


The leaders of Tijaniya, Izala, Qadriya, and Shia - have you ever seen any of them come out and declare that the killing of Hausa Muslims must be stopped? Apart from Murtala Asada, Musa Lukwa, Abdullazis Idris, and Bello Yabo, these are the only four people who have spoken against the killings. We also have Doctor Nura Khalid. 


The Muslim public, the Hausa public, when Buhari was president, he granted Israeli and Germans citizenship of Nigeria - don't forget. Today, ironically, because Wike, the current Minister of FCT said he would hire an Israeli company for Security, the Fulani are inciting confusion amongst us in the name of Islam just to provoke us to  violence. They are quite aware that we Hausas, when religion is invoked over any matter, we get easily provoked to  violence. Don't forget the killings against us for eight years under  Buhari. Our children who were kidnapped, a Hausa lady was kidnapped while pregnant and a ransom of 5 million naira was demanded. She gave birth to twins in captivity and was told to pay two million each for the twins, making it 9 million naira altogether. A Hausa Muslim paid nine million to a Fulani Muslim. They collected this money, took these two babies, a boy and a girl, and fed them to Fulani dogs alive. The mother snapped and died instantly. Have you ever seen or heard any Fulani cleric in this country come out to condemn this heinous act? No! 


A Hausa Muslim baby was taken and cooked by the Fulani and given to the Hausas to eat. Have you ever heard any Fulani cleric condemn this senseless act? No. Hausa Muslims were met praying in the mosques and shot dead right in the mosque by the Fulani. Have you ever heard any Fulani cleric criticize this? No! A vehicle was stopped with Hausa Muslims in it, gasoline was poured on the vehicle and its occupants were burnt alive while they were calling on God. Have you seen any Fulani cleric condemn this? No! 


Thousands of Hausas were chased out of their villages, denied farming, and even denied admission to educational institutions. We Hausas have been kept at arm's length by everyone in this country. Today, because those governing this country are not from Fulani stock, they want to provoke us. 


The work in Abuja has affected the national mosque. Wike is not an enemy of Islam. Wike is not an enemy of the Hausa people - the Fulani just don't like Wike because he is interested in ensuring security. They don't like security because they know they are the terrorists. They don't like Bola Ahamed Tinubu, because he will deal with terrorists. They know if terrorists are dealt with, they would be dealt with because they are the terrorists. Do not forget, Sheikh Gumi said we must not elect anybody who will ensure security. Have you forgotten? My Muslim brethren, we must fear God. Our religion is a religion of justice. A Hausa person must know that in this world he has no enemy other than the Fulani.


It is not the Christians who are enemies of the Hausa people, it is the Fulani. It is not the Yorubas nor Igbos who are the enemies of the Hausas - it is the Fulani. Given the above, we the Hausas must be careful.


We must not accept what the Fulani religious leaders are saying - they are lying. They intend to deceive us so that a Fulani man can take over for them to continue killing us. They don't want security in this country - they have seen that the country is on its path to peace, prosperity, and progress - the borders are open and food is coming in and getting cheaper. We would be educated. We would be supplied with light and piped water and enjoy peace and relative stability, which they don't want.


The Fulani hate peaceful co-existence - don't forget. The Fulani are not indigenous to this country and they have nothing to lose by destroying this country. We are the indigenous people - we are the stakeholders, whether we are Christians, Muslims or Traditional Worshippers, with everything to lose. Thus, we need to stand our ground to keep the country. To you Christians, please remember that we Hausa Muslims are the ones struggling for the freedom of this country in its entirety. You are our brethren - you are our neighbours. We have been living together with you for a long time. Muslims, Christians and Traditional Worshippers must join hands together and never allow the Fulani to instigate us against one another.


The Fulani want to turn us against one another while they step aside and laugh at us like they did in years past. The Fulani have nothing to lose if this country crumbles - they have stolen enough money and have armed their children. If we dare to make the mistake of fighting one another, the Fulani will come in and kill us all, from our Muslims to our Christians. Given these circumstances, we must be wise and not fall into their heinous plans. May God bless Nigeria.
