The Glover Hausas or Glover's Hausas[1] or Glover's Forty Thieves[2] was a local military group, primarily consisting of freed Hausa slaves assembled by John Hawley Glover in 1863 to protect the Royal Niger Company from marauding incursions of the Ashantis.[3] The local group later metamorphosed to the Nigerian Army of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.[4]
