Blame Yoruba/Igbo elite for Kaduna and other Middlebelt killings

The coloniality of Yoruba and Igbo leadership that results in Pan Tribalistic perspectives, individualism and Westernization, robs the two most populous Original African groups of a uniting Original African civilizational perspective, and makes them irresponsibly leave the smaller groups of their civilization in harms way of predatory civilizations. If this continues unchallenged, Afro-Arabic imperialists will culturally subsume or annihilate the smaller Original African groups that form the outer ring to the Original African heartland in the South, before those in the South are isolated and culturally annihilated.

Long before European imperialism and colonization, Kaduna had become our bloody Frontline between Original African and Afro-Arabic civilizations, especially from early 1500s as Zaria through the likes of Queen Amina raided Original African groups for slaves to sell to their Afro-Arabic cousins. European colonization and subsequent mischievous national building placed the Original African civilization at a disadvantage by dividing the Original African civilizational sphere into three regions - West, East and Middlebelt. The conglomerate of small Original Africans groups known as the Middlebelt were placed under Afro-Arabic caliphate, first through the Northern Protectorate, and through state creation whereby a large number of Original African groups are placed under caliphate minority state governments in Kaduna, Plateau, Adamawa etc.

Nothing but the coloniality of Yorubas and Igbos elite could have made them turn a blind eye to the creation of Kaduna state as the fourth largest state, which cobbled together small Original African groups and put them under the control of Zaria/Zazau Emirate controlled Kaduna state. This same coloniality that brought about the Pan Tribalistic and individualistic perceptions of Yoruba and Igbo is what prevents their unification of the Original African civilization to challenge Afro-Arabic imperialism diplomatically, democratically and if the worse come to the worst militarily. Without their combined civilizational numbers, Yorubas and Igbos are too weak on their own so they go begging on European and Afro-Arabic civilizational powerbase for what should be theirs and in most cases made to sellout their Original African civilizational siblings and agenda.

Before the disabling European colonization of our political space and coloniality of our Original African minds and souls, when Africans were truly Africans inside out, a confederacy of hundreds of Original African groups, known as the Kwararafa had come together centuries ago to stem the tide of Afroasiatic imperialism that had first started around Lake Chad, and later moved to Daura where it filtered down to Zaria. The Afroasiatic takeover of Ngazargamu and destruction of the surrounding Lake Chad Sahel Sao civilization, an extension of the Nok grassland Nok and rainforest Ife civilization, resulted in the pushing down of Original African groups like Jukun back into the Gongola Valley.

Under the leadership Aku Uka, the Kwararafa confederacy were able to restrict the Southward movement of Afro Arabic imperialists that had taken over Ngazargamu that became Bornu/Kanem. However, the August 21st 1415 European takeover of Ceuta Morocco, the Afro-Arabic tradepost where Afroasians sold Original West African gold and other products to the outside world, led Afroasians to move from Senegambia towards Hausaland that bordered the Original African heartland.

Within 20yrs of the European takeover of Morocco, their trade route terminus, from around 1431 under the leadership of Abu Rahman, the Afroasiatic Islamists infiltrated and tookover academic and political leadership of Hausaland, which by 1491 produced the first Islamic king, Mohammed Korau in Katsina and Mohammed Rumfa in Kano. While Daura was the cultural center, Kano the caravan trade center, Zazau Emirate was entrusted with raiding and capturing Original Africans, Keferi/Kaffirs for slavery. The Afroasiatic cultural imperialism and coloniality of knowledge involved the rewriting of Hausa history to denigrate their former Original Africans cousins as Banza Bakwai.

It was Zaria under Queen Amina that raided Kwararafa, Igala and Nupe lands for slavery, which led to the coming together of Kwararafa and Igala to repel and launch attacks into the heart of Afroasiatic Hausaland, nearly destroying Katsina and other towns. Queen Amina lost her life in Igalaland on one of her many slave catching expeditions. With much larger subsequent Fulani migrations in the late 1700s and their complete takeover of Hausaland, the Nupe were near annihilated, while kwararafa confederacy was destroyed. The problem being that the two most populous Original African groups, Yoruba and Igbo, that could have increased the numbers and arms  of the resistance, didn't join other Original Africans in Kwararafa to fight the Afroasiatic advance since they were preoccupied with Western slavery and arms.

With Nri civilization overrun, the Igbo mass moved towards the coast to create the Arochukwu slave trading confederacy. In the Ife civilization, the two flanking Oduduwa dynasties of Oyo and Benin strayed from their civilizational mode of Osun, cultural linkages, to Ogun, military territorial expansionism. Prince Ogun that became Oba Ewuare took European weapons to give Bini regional supremacy, at the cost of creating a Jesuit African church called Aruosa since the Portuguese insisted they won't sell weapons to non-Christian territories. For it's cavalry, Oyo romanced Islamists enabling them to build their first mosque in Oyo in 1560. Despite romancing the foreign civilizational predators, those later named Yorubas were to be engulfed not only by Europeans but Afroasians that tookover Ilorin and destroyed Oyo.

500yrs on, the Eurocentric/Abrahamic leadership of Yoruba, Igbo and Deltans, for Pan Tribalistic and individualistic agendas, still court foreign civilizations for power, while their Original civilizations is gradually eroded and heading for cultural extinction. The problem became exacerbated with colonization and coloniality that indoctrinated and empowered a psuedo elite that can only see and actualise themselves with colonial knowledge and power sources. They can't see themselves as Original Africans because their Original African epistemology based on the 16 sector Original Africano information Retrieval aka Ifa-Afa-Iha-Fa-Efa had been denigrated and discarded. An average Yoruba/Igbo who is now an Abrahamist knows nothing about his cultural foundations to enable him identify with others of the same cultural foundations. Western epistemicide, discarding our Original African knowledge sources for foreign knowledge  sources, was done by mislabeling Esu and Ekwensu as Satan thereby scaring people from accesing it.

Without decoloniality of history and other knowledge sources, Yorubas and Igbos can never achieve any political aspiration that is pro-people. They can't defend the small Middlebelt groups nor themselves. The recent South and Middlebelt alliances need to be strengthened with their Original African common cultural and genetic origins and linkages. Eurocentric Original Africans believe the fallacy that identifying as Christians can protect them against Afroasiatic imperialism and cultural annihilation, but it is a false hope as we saw the Christians and Muslims unite to denigrate and exclude Original Africans from Egypt. 

No God or nation will save Original Africans until Yorubas and Igbos, the two most populous, unite the Original African civilization, and step up to defend our civilizational siblings in South Kaduna and across the Middlebelt. They must push to have Kaduna State broken into at least two states, to enable the Adara and other Original African groups to use their state powers to protect themselves from the mindless killings and ethnci cleansing carried out by the Afroasiatic civilization. With the ideology of 'Justice for all' through restructuring devolution of power from the center and rotational presidency, Yorubas should come together with the Niger Deltans and Middlebelt to support 2023 Igbo presidency after which they both come together to support a Jukun or Igala as president. We must employ a civilizational.petspective of touch one touch all, otherwise all will be eventually destroyed one at a time.
