MR PRESIDENT PLEASE CHECK YOUR FACTS BEFORE PUBLISHING THEM......

Tafawa Balewavthe first Prime-Minister was from Balewa tribe a minority tribe in Bauchi State, General Gowon is from a minority tribe in Plateau State, General Babangida is from the Nupe tribe of Niger State, General Abdus-Salam Abubakar is also from a minority tribe in Niger State. Abacha for a Minority tribe in kano

The only rulers from the majority tribes were Obasanjo, Nnamdi Azikiwe, Shagari, Buhari, and Yar' Adua.
So the president want to tell us that every northerner is hausa/fulani
even if the president mean elected, Tafawa Balewa was elected before him

You have gone to the dogs indeed. Do you not know that Prime Minister is not a President? Secondly, are you moronically oblivious that there is a distinction between Head of State and elected President of a country as in the context of Goodluck Joanthan’s letter?

Have come here to say again Ebele' reply to obasanjo sounded like a typical Doyin okupe , ignorant , myopic and bigotry ,will Ebele tell me he want to compare the economy of obasanjo' tenure of previous ones to that of today , is petroleum products the same price or is a dollar still the same price as the it was then ,all they come to the media is to spill figures that he himself doesn't understand . My point this are two different times you shouldn't be comparing a past tenure with your because things happen to be different now, and this is directed to his comparison of economy

A president in this context speaks of elected Presidents under the presidential system. They include :

1. Shehu Shagari 1979 - 1983. (Hausa/Fulani)

2. Olusegun Obasanjo 1999 - 2007. (Yoruba)

3. Umar Yar'adua 2007 - 2010. (Hausa/Fulani)

My brother, you're the reason I had to comment. You disappointed me the most--I can pardon every other previous commentator because ASUU has been on strike for very long and it's to force gov't to improve quality of education. But for you, I've seen a few of your very intelligent comments here on NL save for this. Did you not know the difference between an elected President (in the case of Jonathan) and a Prime Minister and Heads of State?

GEJ spoke the truth! But I don't expect his haters to agree.

Which of the so called Northern minority that ruled Nigeria is not VERY FLUENT in HAUSA. In fact I can bet that Hausa was their FIRST language.
Is it Balewa, is it Babangida, is it Gowon, or Abdusalami? Go and check!
Hausa was the lingua franca of Northern Nigeria. Such language uniformity did not happen in the East or the West.
Can anyone in his right senses say that Jonathan's first language is Igbo? Can Jonathan even speak Igbo?

You just floored your relevance by making this sort of baseless comment. Jonathan might speak Igbo just like Gowon might speak Hausa but their 1st languages are Ogbiya and Angas. IBB's 1st language is Gwari.

I know the context in which Mr President used that.
I remember vividly during my youth service when we (I and my friend from Akwa Ibom state) were discusing a particular Northern president (I won't mention his name), another corper from BENUE state jumped in. You need to hear this guy's views. He was nothing more that an Hausa man!
The truth is that of the so called Northern minorities, perhaps only the Zangon Kataf (and maybe the Birom these days) may truely be classified different from the rest of the Hausa in PRACTICAL TERMS.
Now, bite me, but I stand on that! cool

You are a known outcast amongst Igbo folks in this forum. Your words are insults to other Igbos, so for you to agree with me would be an insult to me.
Because of you, some Igbo have started to believe that Igbo is not one.

Hausa is just the lingua franca of the north, the way pidgin is that of SS. It is the only thing uniting the north and that gives the minorities their sense of belonging.

Their ways of life are visibly different.

I still stand on my point that, a Gwari man speaking Hausa, does not mean by virtue of the language he is now an Hausa man, just like an Ijaw speaking pidgin that an Isoko or urhobo speaks, does not make them any of those tribes.

Mr President, in his search for self-glorification, goofed.
