Fulani herdsmen are turned away from southwestern and southeastern cities, if at all, on account of their growing involvement in terrorism with the support of such elite Fulani as the patrons of Miyetti Allah Fulani Socio-cultural Organisation, and internal colonization across the country, not bcs of cultural differentiation.

Pan- Africanism needs to run both ways: South Africans need to be employed in equal rates in Ibadan, Oturkpo, Ife, Kano, Enugu, Abakaliki, and Onisha for the policy to be successful Otherwise crying foul against South Africans is hypocritical.
'Help me liberate my country' is different from "help me liberate 'our' country". Yes, pan- Africanism is a political liberationist tool; yes it is just that-political. We have cited the case of Nigerien Almajerai in Osogbo to buttress our case. That comparison still stands. Osogbo is not their original abode and if the case is allowed indefinitely control of Osogbo economy will flounder. There is a limit to what is allowable under ECOWAS protocol and pan- Africanism

Criticism of South Africans is tantamount to what Yoruba calls ' şore fúni ka lóşo tii' ( exacting perennially profits from a supposedly selfless good turn)
Let us be real.

One of the useful organizational and inspirational tools in the battle against apartheid was pan-Africanism. I suggest that the editors of the planned text "Xenophobia, Nativism ....." should solicit a chapter on Pan-Africanism and the struggle against

apartheid. That chapter may focus on the southern African frontline states and their sacrifices, and their contributions in military and other means. West and Northern African roles in the pan- Africanist endeavor should also be reflected on.--
