Let True Facts Be Told. No Hausa Has Ever Ruled Nigeria by ibsals(m): 9:01am On Sep 18, 2017
LET TRUE FACTS BE TOLD, NO HAUSA HAVE RULED NIGERIA.

Nigeria got the independence in 1960 which is 57 years now.

Let's look at the records:

The longest serving president in Nigeria is a Northern Christian minority Yakubu Gowon 9 years. He's Angas by tribe from North Central.

Followed by a Nupe man another minority from North Central IBB. He ruled for 8 years.

A kanuri man from Borno, Abacha ruled for 5 years. Kanuri is another minority from North East.

Tafawa Balewa ruled for 6 years a Northern minority from Balewa North East as prime minister . While Zik was the president.

Murtala Mohammed from Auchi but Born in kano ruled for a year before he was assassinated.

Shagari a Fulani man from Sokoto, from core North ruled for 4 years.

Yaradua a Fulani man from Katsina, a core north ruled for 2 years

Abdulsalam a Gwari minority from Niger North Central ruled for 1 year.

Buhari ruled for 10 months(1st time) and now in his 3rd year(2nd time).

Obasanjo a Yoruba man from South West ruled for 3 and half years.

Same Obasanjo a Yoruba man ruled for 8 years.

Shonekan a Yoruba man from South West ruled for 6 months.

Jonathan a minority from South South ruled for 6 years.

Aquiyi ironsi for 7 months from guess where? Abia State.

If you check the whole record, Hausa man never ruled Nigeria.

All the 3 Fulani president, Buhari , Yaradua and Buhari again have ruled for 10 years to date.

Yorubas 12 years

Angas(present day Kanke) for 9 years

Nupe 8 years

Ijaw almost 6 years

Gwari 1 year

Kanuri 5 years

Ironsi : 7 months

Igbos zero month (if we say Ironsi is not an igbo man)

And if you look at the 57 years rule

Muslim rule for 29.5 years

Christian rule for 27.5 years ( Zik presidency not added).

But I keep wondering why some Nigerians keep calling Hausa - Muslim Born to rule.

Many are very economical with the truth, what Obasanjo spent in power is more than what the whole Fulanis spent even if Buhari finish this tenure.

And here is a shocker, the Hausas are actually a majority. Imagine if they begin to look at issues from tribal perspective and begin to emotionally blackmail us all with cries of marginalization which factually is true.

But the poor Hausa man is not. For one way, he understands that we all have been marginalized. Our war should be against the class marginalization. The rich versus the poor.

For it is the same thing that a poor man from Nupe, or the poor man from Efik, Igala, Kanuri, Fulani etc suffers that the poor Hausa man suffers likewise the poor Igbo man. That class disparity ought to be our war. Not the hate resulting from lies that an Hausa man have ruled us for 200 years when infact the true tally is zero.

We are better together. Yes we have grievances, but blackmail, lies, propaganda won't solve them for us. Only the truth can and will.
