This is quite investigative, but the salient point still stands out. Somehow, i believe this revelations might be true, but Wande's story should still motivate young entrepreneurs, without dwelling more on the figures. The company can still be small, but should be encouraged. Those figures might even just be for their PR image, and to draw more support and investment on the possibilities.

Look away from Jim Ovia, it is not him that wande mentioned here.

For someone to say that GEJ should not be praised for improved power supply and that it was better in the 80s shows outright hatred. During electoral campaigns and our fuel subsidy protests, we shouted to the heavens that POWER should be fixed. If power stays like this for long, pls let us pat the man on the back and then keep him on his toes for other areas that we need solutions like insecurity, corruption, unemployment etc.

'Jonathan, Nigerians Beware Of Jos!-The Intricacies Of A Murderous Conflict
Posted: August 15, 2012 - 15:02
By Akeem ‘Kola Adebayo

Nigerians should pay a very close attention to the on-going mediation efforts of President Goodluck Jonathan on the Jos crisis. He has met with the representatives of both the Afizere, Anaguta and Berom, who are recognised as the indigenes of Jos, and the non-native Hausa-Fulani community.
The president personally waded into the matter ostensibly on the advice of the National Security Adviser and this unprecedented intervention has given the issue a much-needed national dimension.
The issues at stake in Jos are very fundamental to the very consensus that is responsible for peace in the country before the advent of Boko Haram terror campaign. What are these issues?

Indigeneship and land ownership, emotive issues that can cause mayhem if not handled with care.
The two major protagonists in the Jos war are the non-native Hausa-Fulani community in Jos and the indigenous peoples of Jos and the region surrounding it – Afizere, Anaguta and Berom. [Although the Hausa and Fulani are two distinctive ethnic groups in Nigeria, but the two have historical antecedents that often pitch them together as one especially within the context of politics.]
Now what is the problem?

Most newspapers and magazines simply describe the war as arising over the dichotomy between the indigenes and the settler Hausa-Fulani. And they stop at that. Why should a mere dichotomy cause so much hatred and bloodshed?
The truth is that there is no constitutional discrimination against the Hausa-Fulani in Plateau State in the exercise of their civic rights. There is nothing that prevents a Fulani man from becoming a senator or governor of the state. If a popular political party today puts forward a Fulani candidate and the majority of the voters in the state freely vote for him or her, nothing will debar the Fulani from becoming governor.
In fact, there have been members of the Hausa-Fulani community who have sat in the House of Representatives. Alhaji Ibrahim Dasuki Nakande, a prominent leader of the community and a central figure in the murderous crisis, once represented the state in the federal cabinet as a minister just as there is a Hausa man who is a commissioner in the present government of Governor Jonah David Jang, a Berom.

Now why then do the Hausa-Fulani feel marginalised as non-indigenes?

Indeed the source of tension in the Jos settler/indigene relationship stems from the Hausa-Fulani claim to the indigeneship of Jos, a chieftaincy stool and political offices. They would like to create a chieftaincy institution in Jos which no reasonable government, under whose powers the right to appoint one rest, will agree to.

Creating a Fulani emirate in Jos will mean that there will now be two traditional rulers in a single domain since the Gbong Gwom Jos, a Berom, is recognised as the paramount traditional ruler of the city!
It is precisely because of chieftaincy that there is a necessary dichotomy between the indigenes and non-indigenes which for the sake of peace we have to accept in Nigeria. There may be more than one million Igbos in Lagos, the Oba of Lagos remains the chief institution of traditional rulership in Lagos and only the indigenes of Eko, who may number only a few hundred thousands, have access to the royal stool. The same goes for every town and village in Nigeria.
Outside of chieftaincy there is nothing in our constitution that prevents an Igbo man who is resident in
Lagos from enjoying citizenship rights including even becoming the governor of the state, if the majority of the voters of the state want him or her.
Another area of contention is land. The Fulani, many of whom in fact are non-indigenes or even non-
Nigerians, say they want grazing reserves to be created for their herdsmen. This is a demand that is not based on any law in Nigeria.
Land in Sokoto belongs to the indigenes of Sokoto. If a Yoruba man desires the land for farming or to build a house, he will have to buy it from the indigenes.
The clamour for grazing reserve as desirable as it is to avoid the constant conflict between herdsmen
and farmers should not be a cause of bloodletting in Nigeria. Where have grazing reserves been
created in the North? Nowhere, not even in states in which these Fulani herdsmen are indigenes,
including Sokoto, Kano, Jigawa etc. Why then must thousands of Beroms and other indigenes and
non-natives of Plateau State be killed because Fulani herdsmen want a grazing reserve?
From the foregoing it is very clear that the objective of the Hausa-Fulani community in Jos is unjust
and actually amounts to an expansionist drive to dominate the Beroms and other indigenous peoples
of the state.
Now the President must be very careful in his on-going mediation efforts as any attempts to force an
unjust solution on Jos will open the doors to similar agitations in other parts of the country.
If you can create a Fulani emirate in Jos, why should the Hausa-Fulani community in Agege (Lagos
State) not agitate for one? They will tell you that they know no other home outside of Agege and they
do not want to submit to the traditional rulership of the Olu of Agege because of their religious belief.
And how can you prevent the Yoruba from establishing a parallel chieftaincy institution in Ilorin since
most hold no allegiance to the Emir whom they regard as an impostor?
Or why should Fulani not demand for the creation of a grazing reserve in Ogun State, if you create
one in Plateau? On whose land should a grazing reserve be arbitrarily created? Every land even when
fallow is owned by a community in Nigeria.
Just as gari makers cannot demand that a farming reserve be created for them in Yobe so that they
can plant cassava and process gari, the demand of the Fulani for grazing reserves in Plateau State
should be rejected.
Behind this clamour is a suspicious attempt to create by fiat Fulani villages in the state by seizing
the territories of the Afizere, Anaguta and Berom. Again an expansionist move.
In fact, the crisis, which assumed its present violent form in 1994, centres on the ownership of Jos
since issue of indigeneship is connected with its ownership. In an advertorial by a so-called Coalition
of Jasawa Elders published in the Daily Trust of Monday 12 January 2009, the Hausa/Fulani
contended that they are founders and owners of Jos town. They claimed they founded Jos even
before the advent of the British colonialists.
However, three judicial commissions of inquiry have established without any doubt that the city
belongs to Afizere, Anaguta and Berom as indigenes. The Justice Aribiton Fiberesima and Niki Tobi
Commissions of Inquiry set up to investigate the civil Unrests of 12 April 1994 and 7 September 2001
respectively considered and resolved the ownership of Jos in favour of Afizere, Anaguta and Berom.
The Justice Aribiton Fiberesima Commissions of Inquiry said in its report: “In the light of careful
thought, we concede to the claim of Berom, Anaguta and Afizere tribes and to declare that they are
“indigenes” of Jos but as to the Hausa/Fulani people’s assumption, we make bold on the evidence
at our disposal to advise them that they can qualify only as “Citizens” of Jos” (1994).
The Justice Bola Abdul-Jabbar Ajibola Commission of Inquiry, which sat in 2009 following the 28
November 2008 killings in the city, while reiterating the claims of the Jos indigenes even noted that it
received evidence that there were other Nigerian non-indigenes, such as the Yorubas who have been
living in the city since 1850, who came to Jos even before the Hausa/Fulani but are not claiming
indigeneship of Jos but rather still trace their roots to their respective states of origin.
And Sir Ahmadu Bello confirmed in his autobiography that the Hausa/Fulani never conquered the
indigenes of Jos.
In conclusion, the Jos conflict really has nothing to do with religion; please leave Islam out of it. The
source of the bloodletting in Jos stems from the Hausa-Fulani expansionist design over Jos. Their
aim is the chieftaincy stool; they want to appoint a Fulani Emir in Jos.
Which way out?
Nigerians must wake up from their slumber. There is no spontaneous violence in the Muslim North.
Every of these murderous eruptions are a deliberate conspiratorial operation planned, organized and
executed by the political and religious establishment.
The bitter truth is that some groups are simply used to using violence, mass mindless violence to
press their political objectives and they have always got away with it and that is why they will
continue to resort to it at the earliest opportunity until we say stop, no more.
Our traditional rulers and political, civil society and human rights leaders must speak out. They must
tell the Fulani establishment in Northern Nigeria that enough is enough and the national consensus on
indigeneship and land ownership must stand the way it is for the sake of peace!

Akeem Adebayo lives in Dublin, Ireland'

I am aware that the Hausa-Fulanis also wanted their own Emirate in Maiduguri, but the Kanuri resent
the idea vehemently. On the other hand, people keep saying the question of 'indigene/settler' needs
to be addressed. How shalll this be done in an acceptable way?
