	Hubert Maga - Wikipédia
		Hubert Maga (né le 10 août 1916 à Parakou et mort le 8 mai 2000 à Cotonou) fut un homme politique du Bénin et président de 1960 à 1963 et de 1970 à 1972.
		De fait, Hubert Maga accède à des responsabilités politiques qui en font l’une des personnalités politiques clés, même s’il n’apparaît pas alors comme l’un des animateurs de la scène politique dahoméenne ; il est ainsi pratiquement absent des débats sur les relations entre l’UPD et le RDA.
		C’est donc tout en toute logique que Hubert Maga, chef naturel du Nord, obtient un siège de vice-président lors de l’élection du Bureau de la nouvelle assemblée le 14 mai.
