OUR DEMANDS
We demand as we wallow in the wallow in the depth of political low tide which this administration has plunged our people are modest and reasonable which are:

1. Appointment of a qualified Ministerial from Urhobo (A slot that was zoned to the Urhobo)

2. Inclusion of the Urhobos who subscribed to the Amnesty programmes in the training of ex militants and partaking in the benefit thereon.

3. Adequate funding of the Federal University of Petroleum Resources, Effurun, FUPRE to enable the institution takes off properly.

4. Appointment without delay of qualified Urhobo son or daughter into key and strategic offices, which include but not limited to; NDDC, NNPC, NPA, NIMASA, ETF, PTDF etc. to enable our people have a sense of belonging to justify their huge support to your presidency.

We implore you to address our grievance and grant our modest demands in the spirit of the transformational agenda.

How this will solve the problems of hundreds of thousands of poor Urhobos, I'm yet to see.


~Oh we feel marginalized but just appoint our elites to go chop money and our problems will be solved~ LOL


Unparalled idiocy. .SMH

The Urhobo in Delta Central has total registered votes of well over 920,000 out of these figures; over 860,000 votes were delivered to you during the Presidential election. A figure that far outstrip your home state of Bayelsa with less than 500, 000 voters and several other state including but not limited to Taraba State.

In Nigeria, Votes and population are overrated. . The usurper does what the usurper wants.

URHOBO YOUTH COUNCIL

 

Open Letter To The President Of Federal Republic Of Nigeria On Gross Marginalization Of The Urhobo By Your Administration And Undue Appropriation Of All Empowerment By The Ijaws
By Urhobo Youth Council (UYC)

June 2012





We are constrained to write this open letter to bring to your notice and necessary action the gross marginalization of the Urhobo people and the appropriation of all appointments, projects and empowerment by the Ijaw nationality to the detriment of their neighbors and other ethnic nationalities in South-South geopolitical zone, as your kith and kin from the South geopolitical zone.

We are not unmindful of the serious security challenges buffering your administration including the Boko Haram insurgence and the spate of kidnapping and crime that are defying the road map of “The Transformational Agenda”. As your kins men, we empathize with you in the struggle to steady the ship of the state.

 Indeed, we have borne our pains in silence electing to convey our distress through peaceful and dialogue as opposed to violence in order not to heat the polity.

It thus seems to us that our recourse to the path of peace is now being taken to be weakness on the part of the Urhobo people.

The Urhobos occupies Delta Central Senatorial district and also from majority population in Warri South and Patani Local Government areas in Delta State. For good measures, 

The Urhobo in Delta Central has total registered votes of well over 920,000 out of these figures; over 860,000 votes were delivered to you during the Presidential election. A figure that far outstrip your home state of Bayelsa with less than 500, 000 voters and several other state including but not limited to Taraba State.

 [b]It is thus amazing that your home state of Bayelsa with such a number of votes in addition to your high office as president and commander in chief also produced some of the following: 

[b]1.Minister of Petroleum. 2. Chairman of NDDC etc. to give vent to the rumored ijaw agenda at the expenses of other nationalities, your administration went further to patronize the Ijaws of Delta State who are less than 12% of the state population.[\b]

Your administration brazenly took the ministerial slots zoned to the Urhobos by Alhaji Musa Yar’Adua and handed it to the minority Ijaw kinsmen. Elder Godsday Orubebe. 

The Executive Director of Finance and Administration is also headed by another Ijaw who share same ancestral root with the minister for Niger Delta.

While other nationalities are groaning under the weight of this lopsided empowerment, The DG of National Maritime and Safety Administration (NIMASA) occupied by an Itsekiri folk was removed and pronto another Ijaw man was appointed with dispatch.

Mr. President is aware that the Urhobos and other nationalities who subscribed to the Amnesty Programme were excluded from the programme, while the few that are enlisted are shut out from the training programme. 

It will not serve any purpose if we point out the Multi Billion Naira Presidential Amnesty Programme headed by another Ijaw folk from a fringe riverine community in Ondo state. The Amnesty programme is now exclusive preserve of the Ijaws who has appropriated Niger Delta as their Anglophones appellation.

The Federal University of Petroleum Resources, Effurun, FUPRE approved and sited in Urhobo area is grossly underfunded. The University due to paucity of funds is yet to fully take off.

Despite being about the highest producer of natural gas and host to Utorogu gas plant, the Urhobos were painfully excluded as beneficiaries of the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the Federal Government and the gas producing community. 

Furthermore, the Urhobos are also shut out from the contact from Oil Pipeline Surveillance in spite of the fact that majority of the pipeline are in the Urhobo area.

OUR DEMANDS
We demand as we wallow in the wallow in the depth of political low tide which this administration has plunged our people are modest and reasonable which are:

1. Appointment of a qualified Ministerial from Urhobo (A slot that was zoned to the Urhobo)

Katsumoto:
@ all
Has anyone noticed the small but constant stream of yabbis from Kilode in recent times? I see some metamorphosis going on. The good side is battling the dark side.

I can see you bought a few movie tickets recently.

You have been watching "The Avengers" abi?

downdraft: Actually Mr Jones, The reason I gave some speculation here is because I read many posts wherit will come down. Seems people couldnt understand who to blame, what to blame or reasons why this could happen. My purpose was to let everyone know an airplane is a machine, machines can break. You may buy a brand new car that can break down, is the same thing, except you can just pull of the road, an airplne you cant do that. My speculations are very real because the MD-83 is a very simple airplane with mostly manual cable flight controls. Easy to fly and not to many things can bring it down with the good weather you had. Like I said single engine no problem, no engines will not fly.

If it was an Airbus too many reasons not to fly because it is a complicated aircraft all hydraulic, electronic computers etc.

Just trying to help, I wont post here anymore, take care.

Do not allow anyone to bully you off this thread or this forum. This is a public forum and you can post whatever you wish -within forum rules - you have not broken any rules.

You can speculate, pontificate, educate, some are actually here to mis-educate even.

You are not violating any rule here, so post what you know, especially if you are a Nigerian pilot with aviation knowledge or information to share.

LOL @ "e fit be Indomie" LOL

The rest of this post has been hidden




I can't continue men, I can't. This is okada_man's dept. Kilode?! can't do it.

OAM4J, pointing blunt knives at small small girls since 1981

Don't mention

I did not see a lot of children though, must have missed them, but I did see plenty hornyrable women chasing after a discredited samurai sword.

Women run towards a sword for two reasons only 1. They are blindfolded. 2. They no it ain't real.

BTW, I thought it was already established that this sword he keeps brandishing about is actually made of rubber, cheap latex rubber if I recall

Why are all these "opeke's" still excited? Badosky must have failed to pass on the message. Bad girl.

DealDey's first success was from selling printable coupons for cupcakes, oddly, a local status symbol.

Dear budding enterprenuers, note this, my people love status symbols.

Traffic snarls to a standstill. And many houses lack street numbers, so couriers rely on directions like, "Turn left after the woman selling plantains."

Funny, but all too real.

I wish these enterpreneurs well. It's hard to prosper in a country where the system seem deliberately designed to make people fail. I'm hopeful though.

In Nigeria, Rising Dreams of Web Commerce.

By DREW HINSHAW

LAGOS, Nigeria—Millions of people in this megacity are prospering and many are shopping online for the first time.

A DelDey delivery driver rides his motorcycle through the streets of Lagos, Nigeria last month.

But in a country that has become synonymous with online fraud, they would sooner hand money to a courier than enter their credit-card numbers on a website. 

So online shopping site DealDey.com employs of fleet of motorcyclists to dart through gridlocked streets to meet online shoppers waiting to pay for their purchases with cash.

That's how Sim Shagaya, founder and chief executive of DealDey, which means "there's a deal" in Lagos parlance, plans to bring online shopping to fraud-sensitive Nigeria. He hopes to create the Amazon.com Inc. of Africa, selling Lagos's increasingly affluent consumer class everything from refrigerators to perfume to cupcakes.

"People are buying all kinds of things," says the Nigeria-born Harvard graduate, bedecked in sneakers, faded jeans and a closefitting T-shirt. "But clearly, there are trust issues."

Solving trust issues about online purchases, he believes, requires offline payment.

Mr. Shagaya's DealDey represents one of the first big forays into online shopping for Nigeria, which has an economy that within the year could surpass South Africa's to become the continent's largest.


Sim Shagaya, founder of Nigeria's DealDey, slang for 'there's a deal'

Already Africa's most populous nation, Nigeria has a relatively young population that means growth lies ahead. The country is projected to become one of the world's five most populous countries by 2050, according to the United Nations. It is now No. 7. 

A third of Nigeria's 167 million people already have entered the middle class. And they are spending nearly half their monthly income on electronics, including toasters, microwaves and DVD players, according to investment bank Renaissance Capital.

That rush has caught the eyes of the world's biggest retailers. U.S.-based Wal-Mart Stores Inc. last year spent $2.4 billion to take a controlling share in the Massmart family of retailers, which is based in South Africa and has stores in Nigeria and nearby Ghana.

For online retailers, this teeming city's young consumer class and creaky infrastructure, such as jammed roads, present an opportunity. 

South Africa's Kalahari.com opened for orders from Kenya and Nigeria in 2009 but based its warehouse in distant Johannesburg. That raised shipping costs beyond the reach of many potential customers, forcing the company to retreat the following year.

Online shopping has gotten a boost recently. Three years ago, two-thirds of Nigerians hadn't heard of a debit card, according to a study by London research firm Cards International. 

Lately, though, the number of debit-card accounts has jumped, spurred by a government push to popularize card-reading machines and cut waiting times to get cards.

A third of Nigeria's population is online. And not just at work on clunky desktop computers. Thanks to inexpensive data phones, a growing number of people are mobile, browsing on the bus.

Still, West Africa isn't entirely hospitable for online shoppers. Local real-estate websites, for example, were plagued with crooks selling houses they didn't own. A result is that villas around this city of an estimated 15 million people are spray-painted with the warning, "This House Is Not For Sale!"

Such challenges haven't deterred Mr. Shagaya. In 2005, he left Google Inc.'s South Africa operation to start a billboard business in Lagos. The experience taught him how many retailers are struggling to find customers, so last year he raised about $1 million.

At the outset, he saw DealDey as a voucher-selling site, styled on U.S.-based Groupon Inc., that would help Lagosians comparison shop for blenders and television sets that they could pick up or have delivered at the vendors' expense.

DealDey's first success was from selling printable coupons for cupcakes, oddly, a local status symbol.

Commissions from coupons are funding DealDey's expansion: a squadron of motorcyclists who roar out of a 10,000-square-foot warehouse near Lagos's airport to deliver James Bond movies, videogames and Steve Jobs's biography to shoppers in town.

Mr. Shagaya aims to raise his consumer base to half a million by October from about 150,000 people today. He plans in coming weeks to unfurl a DealDey spinoff site, Konga.com, that in time would become Africa's answer to Amazon.com, selling goods directly instead of selling goods and services from other vendors.

He had better hurry. Germany's Rocket Internet GmbH within months is expected to open its own online shopping site for Nigeria. The deep-pocketed company hired thousands of people when it rolled out online shopping in China, India, Brazil and much of Southeast Asia. 

Rocket has set up a prospective site for Nigeria called Kasuwa.com that promises to carry an array of goods, including books, cosmetics and computers.

The company still is figuring out how it intends to store goods, says Managing Director Raphael Afaedor of Rocket Internet Nigeria. "It's a sizable market," he says. "The rest just becomes execution—that's where we are at."

DealDey and Rocket represent two clashing approaches. To keep inventory simple, Mr. Shagaya at first is focusing on books and DVDs. 

The products are easy to stock and buyers generally don't return them. That emphasis might appear counterintuitive, though, in a country where 40% of the population can't read and pirated movies abound.

Meanwhile, the problems of Lagos loom large. DealDey's drivers have been ambushed, robbed and, quite frequently, stood up. 

Traffic snarls to a standstill. And many houses lack street numbers, so couriers rely on directions like, "Turn left after the woman selling plantains."

Consumer preferences have presented a steep learning curve. Vacation getaways flopped. But coupons for hotel rooms across town moved swiftly—to couples seeking privacy.

 A DVD crate of U.S. blockbusters that tanked, such as "Spider-Man" and "Kung Fu Panda," sits in Mr. Shagaya's living room. "Schindler's List" and the 1968 musical "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" sold much better.

But nothing sells as well as the cupcake, a DealDey mainstay. "It's quite random," says Mr. Shagaya. "Lagos loves cupcakes."

Rooting for the underdog huh?

China is just too big both culturally and in all areas, it's amazing that they used to fear the Japanese and lost many territories and vassal states to them. Japan, that comparatively small but powerful island country was their main foe in east Asia. I'm not sure we can say that anymore.

So it's possible, but Vietnam will need powerful friends to stay independent of China. Friends like Japan and maybe India (if India can modernize quick enough).

One other lesson for us is that we need something to bind this country together beyond geography, oil and maybe football. We need Nationalism, the extreme kind is even looking attractive to me at this stage. Else we go diffrent ways.

ekt_bear: Kilode!?: Entirely OT. But I'm reading this:

http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2012/06/the-vietnam-solution/8969/?single_page=true

and finding it entirely fascinating. May want to check it out sometime.

Thanks for sharing. I read it. So many take aways from that article. I'll read it again.

Kaplan is too knowledgable and "connected" to be ignored, although he's got a few things wrong in his career so far, he's pretty well respected.

This is interesting to me;

Chinese used to be the language of scholarship in Vietnam, just as Latin used to be in Europe. Through it all, Vietnamese peasant culture retained its uniqueness to a greater extent than did the culture of the Vietnamese elite. Among the elite, as the University of Michigan Southeast Asia expert Victor Lieberman explains, Chinese administrative norms were “internalized to the point that their alien origins became irrelevant

China and Vietnam, this their so close yet so far situation na wa sha.

He explained one of the problems arising from this as a "narcissism of small differences" a psychological phenomenon that causes people or communities in close proximity to ridicule and fight each other over the small things they see as differences. I see this a lot in the ethnic fights here

But I was really struck by the sheer quantity of oil and gas deposits in that region. The implications for Nigeria is massive on the long run. Just the other day we were reading about the decrease in export to America, if they develop that resource ( without a 3rd world war over it) we might end up selling most of our oil to Burkina faso for cheap or maybe we will fry dodo with the thing.

Beaf:

I wonder who will take up the job of pacifying the Abiola family, though. They are very livid with the infantile and demeaning reaction to the change.

Wise and honourable people like Soyinka will continue to appeal to them, they will understand. They are a smart and honourable family.

It is an emotional issue that was badly handled by the gift giver and the understandably angry stakeholders.



Incase GEJ isn't already worried, I'll advice him to be very careful about the sly and cunning advisers sorrounding him. .

Wole Soyinka's wise opinion on this issue supports many of the points we've made on this thread. GEJ goofed. But life goes on.

Goodluck Jonathan’s Gift Horse

By Wole Soyinka

This is one gift horse which, contrary to traditional saying, must be inspected thoroughly in the mouth.
Primary from all of us must be a plea to the MKO Abiola family not to misconstrue the protests against the naming of the University of Lagos after their heroic patriarch. Issues must be separated and understood in their appropriate contexts. The family will acknowledge that, among the loudest opposing voices to Jonathan’s gift horse, are those who have clamoured tirelessly that MKO Abiola, the Nigerian nation’s president-elect, be honoured nationally, and in a befitting manner.

Next is my confession to considerable shock that President Goodluck Jonathan did not even think it fit to consult or inform the administrators of the university, including Council and Senate, of his intention to re-name their university for any reason, however laudable. This arbitrariness, this act of disrespect, was a barely tolerated aberration of military governance. It is totally deplorable in what is supposed to be a civilian order.

After that comes the bad-mouthing of MKO Abiola and the Nigerian electorate by President Jonathan who referred to MKO as the “presumed winner” of a historic election. While applauding the president for finally taking the bull by the horn and rendering honour unto whom honour is due, the particularities of this gesture have made it dubious, suspect, and tainted. You do not honour someone while detracting from his or her record of achievement. MKO Abiola was not a presumed winner, but the President-elect of a nation, and thus universally acknowledged.

It is sad, very sad, that after his predecessor who, for eight full years of presidency, could not even bear to utter the name of a man who made his own incumbency possible, along comes someone who takes back with the left hand what the right has offered. However, there is hope. Legalists have claimed that there is a legal flaw to the entire process. The university, solidly backed by other tertiary institutions nation-wide, should immediately proceed to the courts of law and demand a ‘stay of execution’. That should give President Jonathan time to re-consider and perhaps shift his focus to the nation’s capital for institutions begging for rituals of re-naming. After all, it is on record that the House of Assembly did once resolve that the Abuja stadium be named after the man already bestowed the unique title of “Pillar of African Sports”. He deserved that, and a lot more. What he did not deserve is to be, albeit posthumously, the centre of a fully avoidable acrimony, one that has now resulted in the shutting down one of the institutions of learning to whose cause, the cause of learning, President-elect MKO Abiola also made unparalleled private contributions.

Let me end by stressing that my position remains the same as it was when the University of Ife was re-named Obafemi Awolowo University. I deplored it at the time, deplore it till today, have never come to terms with it, and still hope that some day in the not too distant future, that crime against the culture of institutional autonomy will be rectified. Let us not compound the aberrations of the past with provocations in an era that should propel us towards a belated new Age of Enlightenment.
Wole Soyinka

Kongi said it exactly like it should be said. The "acrimony" sorrounding this issue was totally avoidable. That my president and his advisers failed to see this and work to avoid it isn't surprising to me though.

The link and connection between Obafemi Awolowo and The University named after him is stronger than what we have in this MAULAG case. I disagree with loma's comparison here.

1. Unife was Awolowo's brainchild, a big part of his legacy.
2. Prior to the renaming, The university of Ife had one of their best Residence Halls already named after their benefactor and visionary Founder.
3. While a large part of the Ife University community opposed the re-naming, it was very much welcomed by the larger public, it was recognized as a gracious and well thought out move. This one clearly isn't enjoying that recognition.



This Unilag renaming failed many tests. I'll mention a few:

The appropriate consensus test:
GEJ and his advisers, going by the report of the Present Acting VC of Unilag, failed to carry the University Stakeholders with him. He did not consult the School Administrators and he failed to properly assess the opinion of the school community. In a so-called democracy, that is wrong, inappropriate and insensitive. It does not have to be unlawful to be all of those things.


The historical relevance test:
GEJ and his advisers failed to consider the history and significance of the school's present name "Lagos". Through its name, Unilag recognized and honoured the city of its birth, it honoured its place of residence. changing that name suddenly and in this manner is wrong and in-sensitive toward the City and state of Lagos. Also, MKO through his election "martyrdom" and Struggle wasn't just a Lagos figure, he was a national one. I believe there are better ways to honour his memory in a more national way.


If he indeed wanted to honour MKO, he could have declared June 12 as democracy Day, forever immortalizing the spirit and significance of Abiola's fight for democracy while recognizing the injustice meted out to him. I don't need to remind you that there is a robust and long-running conversation about june 12. The famous slogan "On june 12 we stand" an iconic and national battle cry during those days led us to the Democracy OBJ, Yar'adua GEJ and many Nigerians benefit from today. immortalizing that day would have made a better statement, a braver statement.

Also, GEJ could have chosen a more political monument, a symbol of governance would have been more appropriate, we have many in the Federal Capital, the city where he was imprisoned and possibly murdered and martyred.

The FG could have immortalized him with a new monument, something grander and even more appropriate than UNILAG. There are many great examples to copy from.



Just like Loma wrote, this President indeed has "a characteristic way of doing even the right things wrong" I mean, who could have thought that immortalizing MKO will create this kind of brouhaha?

Having said all that, I think folks should just go back to their school and let this slide, no point losing a strand of hair over this. There is no guarantee that the name won't change back to UNILAG in the future, no guarantee that Aso Rock won't become June 12 House. Like they say in my language; "Oba mewa, igba mewa lo ni ile aye" ~nothing lasts forver~

We have the subsidy report, the Malabo scandal, the PIB bill and other things to fight over. Time to hit PAUSE on this distracting song.

ekt_bear: Which one would you prefer as a graduate on your resume:


The point is, you can't take a 50+ year old, relatively prestigious institution and then destroy its history by renaming it anyhow.

If you are arguing that because this was done with ABU, that it should also be done with Unilag...well, that isn't a very good argument.

That is the point really. Very correct.

An institution with a credible well recognized brand name should not be treated in this manner. You don't just change an institution or company's name simply because you want to "honour" someone. You have to weigh the impact it will have on their brand. The history and importance of the old name is way more important than the new one.


This is why I believe he did not think too deeply about this before approving it.

What sort of argument is this?

The city of Lagos is probably more important than the great MKO. No point changing the name of that University.

If GEJ wants to play ethnic politics ( which is unnessary) he can as well start a new university in Lagos and call it MKO.

This is just another ill-adviced move. No point starting an unnessary Lagos vs MKO debate. The School had a great and appropriate name.

O sun dudun. .

Hmm, I'm not sure about Oga Aja, but I strongly suspect Katsumoto is very stingy abi na prudent?

But I'm often wrong so . .

OAM4J? I will be shocked if that man still has anymore lands to sell. You have to be very idealistic or very broke to moderate that crazy politics section for nothing

And I know Seun ain't paying anybody anything.

Nah. I don't know nothing o. I just google.

This "PAC" thing, Can't we? Given that we are broke people is a negative though, well, speaking for myself that is.

I know you can sell a few Omo onile properties and bankroll us sha..

isale_gan2: Whatchutalkinbout?

I didn't disappear for 3 months like you did.

Anyway, like any sane person around here, I love me some Kilode?!

Iyalode, I'm always around. . .in one form or another.

This professor needs your help o. Care to start a PAC?

isale_gan2: yeah, do that.

Ha! Isale! Where have you been?

Abi you don acquire your own personal collection of rugrats ni?

Glad to have you back. Yes, I might just change it to Yoruba Senator.

^
I already summarized jare.

Maybe I should change it to Yoruba Senator sef. .

Are we sure high level oil thieves and cabals have not produced a president yet?

What happened to the PIB nah?

Gbawe:

My brother, I absolutely agree with your agenda of discussing Politics productively. Indeed, that is what brought many of us here. Nonetheless, and after a while, one has no choice but to ignore identified reprobates and empty barrels who add nothing to productive discourse and only offer clannish idiocy.

I don't blame you bro. Sometimes it's just better to ignore some folks. Actually the more time you spend in the politics section the easier it to identify who to respond to and who to ignore.

@ Jmaine

Yes I agree with your point, I bet the Senator agrees too. He actually wrote about his ongoing attempts at convincing his colleagues. According to his article, the idea to use legislative oversight as a prodding tool to nudge the executive into acting on these probes was from another Senator: Zakari Mohammed. I'm sure Zakari is not from Adeyeye's party.

Adeyeye has gone further now to argue for immediate action, he's also outlined several examples of specific injustice against the Nigerian people, that's the reason for the "long story" I think.

As for your goofy gifs, I go open thread for those ones one day

Gbawe:

My brother, I must commend Kilode for having the patience to go back and forth with mischief makers. Only a fool does things the same way yet expects a different outcome. Similar comparison can be made regarding debating those who will always say A , for obvious reasons, if you say B. 'Goodluck' to the Kilode's of Nairaland and their kind.

My brother, Wetin I go do nah. Sometimes you have to learn how to play the Nairaland game to get your point across.

There's no reason why sensible progress seeking Nigerians should oppose this kind of active, positive oversight attempt, we've had a legislature that essentially functions as an errand boy and partners in Ghana-must-go-sharing for the executive for far too long. No way we can progress without changing that arrangement.

The Nigerian Legislature is corrupt and untrustworthy, Adeyeye made that point clear, what he's seeking now is an opportunity to do the people's work despite the craziness, greed and corruption sorrounding him. People like him need our support, else this country can never move forward.

Good politics build societies. We will have to fix this politics. No other way around our present predicament.
