NewsRescue– In our effort to reveal the amazing truths hidden in popular narratives, NewsRescue once again breaks a rather interesting piece of history about Nigeria.

The Hausa ethnic group has never ruled the nation. A group ‘marginalized’ as are most of 516 ethnic groups in Nigeria, popularly attributed Hausa rule has actually been Fulani only.

Hausa’s are about 20.6% of Nigeria’s population, the second largest group after Yoruba’s (21%). The Fulani are about 9%. Usually, Hausa and Fulani are combined to create a largest block of 29%. The Igbo are about 18%, followed by the Ijaw, 10% and Kanuri, 4%.

NewsRescue is not in the least piqued by ethnic rotation, and ONLY supports the selection of morally upright and intelligent candidates from whatever region of Nigeria; however this piece of news is fascinating headlines. Please review list below:

1. Abubakar Tafawa Balewa (Middle Belt Bauchi) 1960-1966. (Sefawa)
-Nnamdi Azikiwe 1960-1966 (Igbo)
2. Major General Aguiyi Ironsi (Abia) Jan-Jul 29 1966 (Igbo)
3. General Yakubu Gowon (Middle Belt Plateau) 1966-1975 (Angas)
4. General Murtala Muhammed (Middle Belt Plateau) 1975-Feb.1976 (Berom)
5. General Olusegun Obasanjo (Ogun) 1976-1979 (Yoruba)
6. Alh. Shehu Shagari (Sokoto) 1979-1983 (Fulani)
7. General Muhammadu Buhari (Katsina) 1983-1985 (Fulani)
8. General Ibrahim Babangida (Middle Belt Niger) 1985-1993 (Gwari)
