PoliticsAs The Polity Heats Up, Where Is The Langtang Mafia by dabeto(op): 9:53am On Jul 05, 2017
Langtang Mafia was a clique of the military “boys” from Plateau State who held sway during President Ibrahim Babangida’s era. They were so visible between1985-1993. The purported members included Lt Gen Joshua Nimyel Dogonyaro (rtd), Lt Gen Jeremiah Useni (rtd), who later continued in Abacha’s government and also chaired Arewa Consultative Forum, Lt. Gen Domkat Bali (rtd), who retired into farming, and Brig Gen John Nanzip Shagaya (rtd), who became a senator between 2007- 2011.
I wouldn’t know what has happened to them but they have completely withdrawn from the scene and hardly comment on national issues. During Jos crises, they were not heard and today their voices are not heard as well. All of them being Christians, it is assumed their silence on national issues is to keep away from offending the caliphate. Now there is a national discourse going on concerning the future of the nation and it would have been interesting to know the views of the mafia.

EducationStudents, ASUU And School Authority On Warpath; Way Forward by dabeto(op): 5:38am On Jun 30, 2017
All over the world hike in the price of goods and service brings discontent no matter how minute the increase may be. Recently several public and private universities decided to take the bull by the horn and increase their tuitions so as to meet the operational cost. In the last few years, inflation has taken a long walk on our economy and prices of everything have gone up.
The students and ASUU are ready to lock horn with the university administrations to reverse the increase. This is not the first time ASUU will side with the students. The reason given is usually that hike in fees threatens their jobs as many students will drop out of school leaving them with empty classrooms.
Increase in fees especially in the public school is always a very difficult one to deal with as it remains the last choice and option for the common man. One could move from private school to public but where does a student in public school move to if not home. Already, he or she is feeling the effect of inflation outside the school with the cost of everything up.
On the other hand, how does the school meet the increased overhead cost to keep the school running? Government subvention is considered meager and the IGR of most schools is not sustainable. If the students revolt, they will still have to pay a negotiated sum when the dust is settled. For the students in private schools, they have the options of either paying or move to public school which of course the transfer doesn’t come easy.
The fact remains; both parties must be coolheaded and understand the reality of time. School administration may have to review the fee downward (not reverse) for those that need to be reviewed to accommodate the difficulty of time. Strike and revolt won’t help but negotiated settlement can address the issue amicably. My take though.

BusinessWhy Dangote Cannot Invest In Igboland by dabeto(op): 4:02am On Jun 30, 2017
This is a very honest position concerning this issue. Ndigbo competitive spirit in business is unparalleled to the extent that outsiders fear to invest in Igboland. When Dangote was making massive investments in cement across the country, he carefully avoided the east because Ibeto was there already. Before Dangote thought of refinery in Lagos, Orient Petroleum was already building one in Anambra even though the project is abandoned because of several logistics and communal challenges. He could not compete with his petroleum products retail outlets MRS when the likes of Dozzy Oil, A-Z Petroleum, Tonimas, Capital Oil, Major Oil, Techno Oil, SPG Petroleum etc are on the ground.
Is it his Sino Truck Assembly Plant he would have gone to establish in the east when Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing Company is there and Peace Motors has joined.
Dangote has been in commodities trading just like the Igbos until he decided to go into backward integration and start producing those things here. He is into farming which he cannot do in the east for want of land. According to the northern youths who are at dagger drawn with Dangote, because he considers them idle for issuing quit notice to the Igbos, Dangote has failed to invest in the north to provide jobs for them. 70% of his investment is in the south and only 30% is in the north.
Dangote just like every businessman considers investment variables such as proximity to ports and raw materials, market, infrastructure, competition, ease of doing business etc before he will put down his money. After all these same factors is what has caused the Igbos to invest in the west and other places more than the east. Like we all know, there is no sentiment in business. It's all about cash.

Op, have you forgotten that Biafra once existed? What were their challenges then?

Now compare 1967 to 2017.
The zoo nation did not let Biafra operate at that time so these challenges were not there
PoliticsBiafra: Post Independence Challenges by dabeto(op): 6:47pm On Jun 29, 2017
When Biafra independence finally arrives, here are some of the challenges ndigbo will face
1. Igbos will still roam other parts of Nigeria trade, build and settle but not with much ease as now
2. They will still do little about their country's development since nothing stops them from developing it now
3 Crime rate will increase due to shock in mass resettlement challenges
4. Development will not be rapid or faster than any part of southern Nigeria thereby setting in frustration
5. Many will obtain dual citizenship to enable them to live and do business in Nigeria
6. Cross-border activities will increase which will lead to border control
7. Some will consider Biafra as safe haven due to poor Interpol collaboration
8. Port Harcourt and Asaba will witness massive influx of Igbos whether they are ceded to Biafra or not
9. Igbo will seek for more interethnic marriages if Nigerian laws will offer some immigration benefits
10. Mutual suspicion between Igbos and others will heighten which may lead to xenophobic attacks from time to time
11. Only a few foreigners especially Chinese will find it easy to do business in Biafra and drive in substandard products from there to Nigeria
Some of these challenges are common among emerging independent nations
PoliticsThe Real Reason For Biafra Agitation by dabeto(op): 5:05pm On Jun 29, 2017
Copied.
This explains the Igbo agitation more than anyone else I've read.
IGBOS ARE AGITATING FOR JUSTICE, FAIRNESS, AND EQUITY.
1. Please kindly note that the Igbo agitation is not a hatred towards any ethnic group or people. I don't know why people are pushing such wicked narratives. I don't know what those driving it want to achieve. Perhaps, to draw opprobrium towards Ndi Igbo.
2. The Igbo agitation is not to occupy the Presidency or to be given all the juicy political appointments in Abuja. We don't need it. Those who occupied those positions in the past benefitted only their filthy pockets.
3. The Igbo agitation is not to be given the Oil wells in the Niger Delta or the land mass of the North or the resources of West. No, it is not. If it is, we would not be at the vanguard of the call for resource control in Nigeria.
4. The Igbo agitation is simply for Nigeria to give a level playing ground to every/all the stakeholders within the Nigerian space/perfect . The Igbo agitation is an unequivocal demand for equity, justice, fairness, equality, and excellence to all.
5. To be more specific, the Igbo's demand for a total restructuring of Nigeria to what we had in 1963, that was beneficial to all. What this simply means is that the Igbos demand for a redrawing of the fiscal, governance, political, socioeconomic, resource control and autonomous architecture of Nigeria to enable her people and other peoples that make up Nigeria to develop their homestead at their own pace and at their own terms without being stifled of their entrepreneurial and enterprising spirits.
6. If the autonomous, resource control, governance and fiscal architecture of Nigeria is overhauled to what we had in 1963, with the exclusive list for the FGN reduced to just control of defence and foreign relations of Nigeria, giving them only 20% of our national revenues, If the six regions are allowed to control 50% of whatever they produce within their land and allowed to build, develop their own infrastructure and enter into whatever alliances that can enhance the growth of their infrastructure and human capital without the overbearing influence of Abuja. The following things will happen:
#Ndi Igbo will now be able to enter into alliances with the SS region to create mutually beneficial sea pathways into ala Igbo without recourse to Abuja.
#What this means is that all the trillions of naira, jobs, physical, the fiscal and infrastructural development that is concentrated in Lagos, will now move to Aba and Onitsha. Our containers shall be cleared in Onitsha and Aba. Those importers and big businessmen that struggle to buy houses in Banana Island, Lekki and VI at cut-throat prices will now create their own plantain Islands nearer home by the coast of the Niger River near the overhead bridge. Many will relocate home.
#Autonomy will also allow the regional government of the SE to negotiate and attract consulate presence of the US, UK, EU, China and other countries in Enugu and Owerri. What this means is that my aged mother will not come to Lagos or travel to Abuja to secure her visa to travel abroad. She will not have to waste my resources flying to Lagos. She won't need to come to Lagos for a connecting flight to Dubai. Just imagine the aggregate and cumulative jobs, fiscal, physical and infrastructural development that this arrangement will bring.
#Autonomy and Resource control will allow the SE regional government to develop her education system that suits her people and will not suffer the ignominy of having her sons who score 200/300 in a federal common entrance exam denied admission into a Federal school, only to allot his position to a kid from Zamfara who scored 4/300.
#Autonomy, Resource control and fiscal federalism, will allow the regional government of the SE the latitude and constitutional unencumberances to enter into partnerships with the regions of the SS or SW or NC to develop rail system links that connects even to outside niegbouring countries in such viable designs and structures that is not subject to the overbearing influences of Abuja. Igbos love PPP. Igbos are commercial oriented and will not mind several toll projects that will develop ala igbo, unlike our neighbours who love freebies and will want us to build unviable highways and site projects that lead to nowhere just to satisfy nepotistic inclinations and put the debt burden on others.
It will also allow Ndi Igbo to harness and tap into all the solid mineral resources and natural resources that God endowed us with, without recourse to Abuja and external limitations. It will also enable us to have our regional police that can easily checkmate homegrown crimes and stop the murderous antics of the terrorist herdsmen.
If this international sea , air, and land gateways are created in the SE region, many Igbo owned businesses sited in other regions will relocate to the homeland.
If Nigeria is restructured today to what we had in1963; this agitation and cry for marginalization will stop immediately.
Ndi Igbo do not seek to take anyone's land without paying for it. We don't want a beggarly feeding bottle federalism.
That the other ethnic nationalities are okay with the rot and perfidy in the land does not mean we should keep quiet. We complain louder than others because the current wicked, warped, fraudulent and mediocre driven Nigerian structures stifle our enterprise and free spirit.
For folks like you and all those who claim that the outcry of the people of the SE are misplaced, I hope you will come around and appreciate what this agitation is all about. Let's stop spreading some of these shallow narratives. Let's dig deeper to unearth the root causative agents that feeds this agitation so as to provide the required lasting and sustainable solutions to it. No more.

PoliticsNigeria Exports Yam In Readiness For Regional Government by dabeto(op): 2:23am On Jun 29, 2017
The formal flag off of yam export to UK today marks Nigeria's determination to export agricultural produce in preparation for regional government. The call for the restructuring of current government structure has been growing and coming from nearly all interest groups in the country in the last few weeks following IPOB agitation for the nation of Biafra.
Every region will be expected to harness its resources, through export earns the needed foreign exchange to sustain its region. Despite the fact that Nigeria is listed along Somalia, Yemen, and South Sudan as nations facing severe starvation and needing help by United Nations, many have considered it absurd for the government to export what is not enough for local consumption. However, the government has decided to continue with the policy to break the jinx of a mono and petrodollar-economy. This policy it is believed will help north central which is considered the food basket of the nation to key into the anticipated new government structure. grin cool

2. We export gas and have none to fire our turbines
3. We export electricity and live in darkness
4. We export academics and have few to teach in our universities
5. We export doctors and nurses and have few to manage our healthcare system
6. We export footballers and never watched our home leagues
7. We export (launder) dollars and leave our economy gasping
8. We export cassava and now YAM while a nation is starving
In all these exports, the minimum wage is N18,000. Food for thought!
