The End of Buhari: A Turning Point for Hausa Identity and Resistance in Nigeria
The Death of Buhari Marks the Conclusion of the 1804 Danfodio Mission and Its Failure in Nigeria and Africa

The recent passing of the late former President Muhammadu Buhari represents a significant turning point, signaling the end of the Fulani agenda linked to the historic mission spearheaded by Usman Danfodio in 1804. The sentiments among the Hausa populace upon the announcement of Buhari's death were not one of sadness, but rather, a sense of relief and celebration. The implications of this event extend beyond mere politics; they resonate deeply with the identity and future aspirations of the indigenous people of Nigeria. As Kaltum Alumbe Jitami eloquently noted, this is a critical moment for the Hausa people, who are awakening to the realities of ethnic struggles and political dynamics.
The Fulani agenda, a subject of significant discussion and concern for figures like Nnamdi Kanu, has been a topic of great contention in Nigeria. It is essential for the indigenous populations to remain vigilant and aware of the continuing threats that such political maneuvering presents.
Assessing Buhari's Legacy: A Failed Fulani Icon
Former President Muhammadu Buhari, once a key figure for the Fulani ethnic group and a promoter of what many perceive as an extension of Usman Danfodio’s violent ambitions, has ultimately failed to fulfill the mission that he and his followers had hoped for. His regime and death has ignited a movement among the Hausa people, particularly under the platform known as Guguwar Hausawa Tsantsa Movement, which seeks to promote awareness and resistance among Nigeria's indigenous communities. The Hausa, historically known for their resilience, are now more united than ever in recognizing the need to protect their interests, especially as the nation gears up for the consequential 2027 presidential election.
Hausa People as a Powerful Force in Nigerian Politics
The 2023 elections were characterized by a concerted effort from the Fulani elite to back their chosen candidate, Atiku Abubakar of the People's Democratic Party (PDP), in a bid to regain control over Nigeria’s indigenous inheritance. However, the Hausa community has firmly rejected this narrative and actively decried the rampant violence, terrorism, and ethnic cleansing that have plagued their regions. The Hausa population has declared a resounding "No" to further Fulani rule, asserting that Buhari's death marks the conclusion of the Fulani invasion.
The determination of the Hausa to thwart any future attempts by the Fulani to assert control is evident. The community is committed to exposing any secretive plots related to the so-called "Fulanisation" agenda and vows to prevent any Fulani candidates from disguising themselves under Hausa identities during forthcoming elections. The Hausa people, standing firm in their identity, refuse to accept any intertwining with the Fulani's historical narratives, maintaining that “Hausa-Fulani” unification is a misrepresentation of their identities.
Reflecting on Buhari's Tenure and the State of Nigeria
The troubling economic and social circumstances that Nigeria has faced since Buhari assumed office in 2015 can largely be attributed to his policies and the entrenchment of Fulani interests within key national positions. The extensive corruption and subsequent looting have plunged the country into a state of recession. Furthermore, the oppression of indigenous peoples and the encroachment of Fulani herders on ancestral lands have fueled widespread discontent and resentment.
The Hausa movement, particularly those involved in the Hausawa Tsan-Tsa, dares to voice the realities that many other indigenous groups may hesitate to confront. It is crucial for all ethnic groups, including the Yoruba, Igbo, and Kanuri, to scrutinize their elites, as some may have hidden Fulani lineage—either through maternal or paternal connections—that influences their governance and policies.
Identifying Hidden Affiliations: A Call for Transparency
The following is a brief examination of some prominent figures who have either concealed or obscured their Fulani heritage while claiming other ethnic identities:
- Senate President (2015-2019) - Bukola Saraki, originally from an Ilorin Fulani family but identifies as Yoruba.
- SGF - Ibrahim Gambari, also hailing from an Ilorin Fulani family while claiming Yoruba identity.
- Minister of Information & Culture - Lai Mohammed, with similar origins.
- Several governors, including Yahaya Bello, Umar Bago, Atiku Abubakar, and others, have likewise claimed identities outside their historical Fulani roots.
Conclusion: The Political Landscape Moving Forward
As Nigeria approaches the next set of elections, the Hausa people's resolve will be on full display as they confront the elite Fulani interests. The expectation is clear: any figure, regardless of their attempt to cloak themselves in Hausa language and identity, will face significant opposition from a community that is determined to defend its heritage and rights.
