Everything is falling apart under his watch, but it is cheaper to attack phantom enemies "as in those who said our country will break apart" than to show evidence of performance.Hmm |

PRESIDENT Goodluck Jonathan received the 22-voume, 10,335-page report of the National Conference, along with its 600 resolutions last week Thursday, and went into a poetic rhapsody. He declared: “All those who had predicted the disintegration of our country at the end of our first centenary would wish they chose another country when the possibilities of the new vision for Nigeria are actualised”. Jonathan had good reasons to be ecstatic. Here was a conference that faced many odds when it was being put together. His political opponents, especially those promoting the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC) had discredited and opposed it. Confab Closes— From left: President Goodluck Jonathan receiving Report of 2014 National Conference from Chairman of the Confab, Justice Idris Kutigi at the closing ceremony of conference in Abuja, yesterday.

Photo: Gbemiga Olamikan. They threatened to boycott it. Even some rebel PDP governors, some of who later decamped to APC, said their states would not be sending delegates. Eventually, one by one, they sent delegates to go and canvass the interests of their people and states, perhaps after realising that though President Jonathan was convening the conference, it was not a Jonathan conference but one for all Nigerians. The second stage of the debacle took place at the floor of the conference, where delegates came buoyed by different motivations. Some came to find ways of moving Nigeria forward. Those in this group included the delegates genuinely committed to reforms that would promote nation building, citizenship rights, reduce the cost of governance, diversify the economy for prosperity, explore ways of securing the nation and its people from internal and external enemies, expand opportunities to vulnerable groups and generally make Nigeria a better place for all Nigerians. Most of the delegates who fell under this category represented civil society groups, Labour and professional interests. The federal government went out of its way to ensure their adequate representation. These were the bridge-builders who mediated between the delegates representing “ethnic nationalities” and their opponents who were inspired by rabble-rousing regional irredentists. There were those who came to ask for the inequalities introduced into the body politic by a region army to be ameliorated to give marginalised Nigerians a sense of belonging. For instance, the Igbo delegates seized the opportunity to revisit the already nationally agreed creation of an additional state for the South East Zone to bring it to par with the others. The Yoruba delegates also revisited their age-old demand for a return to the regional setup and devolution of powers. The Minorities of Southern Nigeria from the oil-bearing Niger Delta came to cash in on the constitutional promise that the 13 per cent derivation on their oil resources can be upped. It was also an opportunity for people from solid mineral-rich areas; especially the northern zones, to ask for a special fund to enable the country develop that sector for the benefit of all. But unfortunately, some groups allowed themselves to be misled by external influences that were determined to keep Nigeria where it is or move it backward if possible. Some of these delegates came from the Arewa areas of North East and North West. They took their marching orders from the Northern Elders Forum (NEF) a reactionary group of retired technocrats and politicians of the Muslim North who still live in the distant and dark past where Nigeria was seen as a conquered, vassal territory of the Sokoto Fulani Caliphate. The NEF enjoined its disciples among the delegates to make sure that anything that would bring about change or reduce the unmerited privileges of the old, defunct Northern Region would not be allowed to sail through. New North-South divide It was in the process of these truculent exchanges that the new North-South divide, which has been developing over the past 24 years, became evident. The new political “South” in the conference consisted of delegates from the South East, South-South and South West, plus those from Minority areas of the old Northern Region, generally referred to as the Middle Belt; while the new “North” consists mainly of the core Muslim zones of North West and North East, with a sprinkling of conservative Muslims from the North Central sometimes found in their midst. These were the delegates who took their instructions from the NEF and tried – and failed – to frustrate the conference. They failed because a large number of the Arewa Muslims are also patriotic, progressive and independent-minded enough to know what is good for all Nigerians. They joined the rest of their compatriots to do the right thing. The conference eventually ended on a victorious note for Nigeria. At least, the minority Arewa group bowed to the superior reason of the rest of the delegates, and so the victory is also theirs. It is a classic case of “no victor, no vanquished” and everyone is a winner. The happy thing, for me, is that those who will like to keep Nigeria rooted on the spot for their selfish interests have, over the years, become a miserable minority. They have lost power, though they do not realise it. It is a great delusion for anyone to make his political calculations based on the defunct Regions created by colonial Britain. It is also becoming unviable to make political projections based on the structures left behind by the rampaging Northern regional army. The truth is that the regions created by Britain collapsed long ago. There is no Eastern, Western or Northern Region anymore. There is no Mid-Western Region anymore. Nigeria has moved on since. People clinging to such anachronisms will always bite their fingers in frustration at the end of every political process. The Western Region ended with the creation of the Midwest in 1963. The Yorubas took the creation of the Midwest in their stride and moved on. The Eastern Region ended with the declaration of Biafra and the creation of twelve states in 1967. The Igbos moved on, too, and so have the Southern Minorities. In fact, it was the Igbo elite that fought for the creation of the South-South in the 1994 Abacha Conference to break up the alliance between their Minority neighbours and the North and West. They ended up creating a new regional alliance now popularly known as the South East and South-South, a partnership of equals, not that of master and servant. But the North, especially Arewa, does not want to accept the fact that the Middle Belt, the zone of the Minorities and non-Muslims, has come to stay, and that their incessant killings and destruction of Minority communities have pushed the Middle Belt into an alliance with the South. It showed in the conference, and helped to ensure its success. However, it is one thing to have a successful conference and yet another to implement its report. Now, the harder part of the job has started: making the resolutions become change agents to enable the nation to survive and thrive in the second century of its history. The ball is now in the court of the president and the National Assembly. |
ABUJA—The Defence Headquarters, yesterday, declared that military operations to secure Gwoza town seized by the insurgents earlier this month was ongoing even as Boko Haram leader, Abubakar Shekau was defiant, proclaiming Islamic caliphate in the town which he said was now firmly in the grip of the sect. Responding to the claim by the sect leader that Gwoza town seized by the insurgents earlier this month has been placed under an Islamic caliphate, the military authorities said “the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Nigerian state is still intact”. The Boko Haram leader had in a new video, yesterday, claimed that he has created an Islamic caliphate in Gwoza. In the 52-minutes video obtained by AFP, Shekau said: “Thanks be to Allah who gave victory to our brethren in Gwoza and made it part of the Islamic caliphate. Gwoza, has nothing to do with Nigeria. By the grace of Allah we will not leave the town. We have come to stay”. Boko Haram claim empty — Military The Defence Headquarters, however, in a tweet on its twitter handle stated that “the claim is empty. Any group of terrorists laying claim to any portion of the country will not be allowed to get away with the expression of delusion and crime. Appropriate military operations to secure that area from the activities of the bandits are still ongoing”. The United Nations humanitarian office (OCHA) earlier this month confirmed reports that Gwoza was under rebel control. Boko Haram is also believed to be in control of other areas near Gwoza in southern Borno, as well as large swathes of territory in northern Borno and at least one town in neighbouring Yobe State. Troops recently stormed communities close to Balmo forest in a military operation that lasted two days. Prior to the operation, Balmo forest stretching from Bauchi through Jigawa State with links to the fringes of Sambisa forest was used by terrorists as bases and hideouts for launching attacks. During the operation, terrorists and armed gangs operating in the forests were completely dislodged while some were captured. Among those captured were two foreigners who were suspected to be mercenaries. Also captured were several weapons and equipment including power generating sets, communication equipment, vehicles, motorcycles, foodstuff and kitchen utensils. Governor Shettima reacts In his reaction to the reported declaration of Gwoza as a territory of the Islamic sect, Governor Kashim Shettima said: ‘I cannot comment on the authenticity or otherwise of that video in question, I will leave that to security experts. I also cannot disclose measures being adopted by security agencies on whatever development in Gwoza or any part of Borno State but I can assure the good people of Borno State and other members of the public that the State Government is actively in touch and supporting security agencies deployed to Borno State in the counter insurgency efforts and insha Allah, the combined efforts will not be in vain. “We are not just studying the situation with collaborative tact and urgency but indeed, appropriate measures are being taken by the right authorities. For now, I urge the good people of Borno State to remain calm and resolute in their support for security agencies, abiding faith and prayers. The security agencies, I am sure, are in the position to analyse the content of the said new video, compare with the facts on ground in Gwoza and brief the Nigerian public as they deem professionally appropriate, bearing in mind the National interest and patriotism as well as the overall safety of citizens. “Let me use this opportunity to, while thanking members of the Nigerian and International media for their firm support for Borno people and its government since this insurgency crisis in 2009, make a strong appeal that we do not dramatise and sensationalise issues such as the one connected with Gwoza, so that we all do not fall for the objective of insurgents, which is to at all times, claim victory over our sovereign State, our rights to existence, our freedom and our liberty, as it is always their goal to create so much panic that would make anyone who doesn’t share their ideology feel unsafe and defeated. “Even as those of us in the media work tirelessly to disseminate information in the discharge of important duties that aim to protect the fundamental rights of the public to know happenings within and around them, we must at this moment, more than ever before, do our jobs with patriotic support for our country and its security forces as well as our passion for humanity as against those that seek to send humanity into extinction. As disturbing as what is said to be the development is, I remain very optimistic that victory will never go the way of those that violently stand between fellow human beings and their divine rights to exist as God’s creatures on earth” |
Secretary General of the Nigeria Football Federation, Musa Amadu is growing grey hairs over where to get money to prosecute the 2015 African Cup of Nations double header against the Red Devils of Congo and Bafana Bafana of South Africa next month The Super Eagles would confront the Red Devils of Congo in Calabar on September 9 and travel to Cape Town, South Africa to play Bafana Bafana on September 6. Musa Amadu Musa Amadu Amadu said that Nigeria would need a whopping N20 million to prosecute the two matches but was at cross roads over where the money would come from. The elections of the Executive board of the Nigeria Football Federation which holds tomorrow appears to have taken the front burner over the two Nations Cup qualifiers and Amadu does not feel comfortable with that. ‘’It is sad that nobody is talking about the matches. Everybody is talking about the elections. As we speak, we don’t have a coach to over-see the players who have been called to camp for the matches. It is worrisome. These qualifiers are important and deserve attention but the elections are not helping in this matter’’, Amadu said. Speaking too, former scribe of the NFA, Dr Tijani Yusuf decried the fight for the soul of Nigerian football over the matches in the qualifiers. ‘’Nobody is talking about the matches and they still have no coach to supervise the matches. Instead, what we hear every day are pretenders who call themselves stakeholders scrambling for positions.” |
