I thought I was really doing well as far as overcoming the spirit of envy until this visit to Lusaka, Zambia. Zambia as you might know is a Southern African country of 13.5 million people, with a land area almost twice that of Nigeria, one federal university and handful of privately owned ones. You can drive round the capital city, Lusaka in few hours. But the peace and quiet in the city is palpable. I saw the way the country has been able to use what they have to begin to get what they need and I was green with envy when i think of my country Nigeria especially my beloved city Jos. This visit to Zambia is somehow reminiscent of my last visit to the Pike Street market in Seattle WA where i saw hundreds of people milling into this market spending thousands of dollars and adding value to the economy of this city, it was a indeed a beauty to behold. I thought, well this is the great USA, but here am I in Zambia, Southern Africa experiencing the same phenomenon where tourism is contributing so much to the economy of the country. I stood here watching the whole scenario and cannot but think about my city - Jos who prides herself as the city of peace and tourism. My envy got intense when i travelled six hours further south to a town called LivingStone named after Dr David LivingStone, the Scottish missionary. When I saw Victoria Falls (i wonder why its not Kaunda or Zambezi Falls) my mind went to the Assop Falls in Jos; i went to see the game, animals in their natural habitat my mind went to the Jos Wild Life Park and the Yankari game reserve - centres that now exists just in name. As i stood between people filled such excitement at what they were beholding, I must confess that I was so so jealous because I believe Nigeria could do better; this should also be happening in my country on a larger scale. I can easily do the usual and blame it on the political opportunists as i have chosen to call them, but this has not changed anything over the years. But I really desire change because I believe it can and should happen. Our problem is no longer one of leadership in my humble opinion, but more of followership - followership who does not know how to and what demand to make of leaders.
Where do we start from - It is time to begin to join voices to demand for stronger states where Governors are made to think and act for their states rather than sit and wait for monthly hand outs from the Federal government. If this is so, the likes of Governor Jang will be left with no choice than to focus on money spinning ventures such as tourism in Plateau state which will provide jobs for street urchins who are always available to unleash terror on the city at the slightest provocation. I stood in LivingStone, Zambia and lost count of hotels and many little tour packaging companies. The peace in the city is palpable and i became envious. We can change, but it is up to the citizens to take our destinies in our hands. Oh I forgot to mention that Power did not blink once in Lusaka.

Congrats Da Jonah David Jang
Congrats Da Jonah David Jang
I want to use this medium to congratulate Jonah David Jang for his re-election as the executive governor of Plateau State, North Central Nigeria. I have a word of advice though for Mr. Governor/Governor-elect. With all due respect sir, I don't want you to see this victory as an achievement of any sort as this is the way most Nigerian Politicians see electoral victories and they end up not using their victories for its intended purpose. Electoral victory is a RESPONSIBILITY AND OPPORTUNITY to ACHIEVE something. This RESPONSIBILITY can and should be used to make some ACHIEVEMENTS and the major beneficiaries of whatever is achieved must be the generality of the people like me who voted you into power and even those who did not vote for you.
I want to appeal to you sir as you prepare to steer the ship of the state for another four years not to bother much about the good things which people like me saw to earn my vote, but more importantly the issues which others saw about you which made them to vote the other way.
One major issue sir that has made people to overlook all your achievements is that YOU DON’T HAVE A PLATEAU AGENDA BUT A BEROM AGENDA. As tough and bitter a pill this "accusation" might be to swallow, I really want you to consider how you can use this fresh term to prove people wrong that you are really the Governor of Plateau State and not the Governor of the Berom people or even of the people of Du extraction.
My humble advise to you sir, is that you use this your second and last term in governance to do something for Plateau which will outlive you. The ethno-religious crises that has plagued the state for years now is not one without solution, but the solution will not come without sacrifice, it will come when you rise above ethnic and religious sentiments and be the BABA that you are called. Your government in this second term should be an all inclusive one - there is no reason whatsoever why all the stakeholders in this state (Yorubas, Hausas, Igbos,Urhobos, Ijaws etc) should not be represented on your cabinet. We will be deceiving ourselves and cause more trouble if we refuse to accept the reality on ground that this state as all the other states in the country no longer belong to any so-called indigene or settler. I am very sure the facts and figures will astound all of us if we ever take the pains to research which of the people groups in Plateau State contribute the most to our GDP. The reality sir is that Plateau state has become a metropolitan state with many stakeholders and everybody deserves equal opportunities to make a living without any fear of being molested. I am not in any way discounting the fact that there are some who want more than equal opportunity and I know that you have the answer for such disgruntled elements, in fact it is one of the reasons why you earned my vote, but I want to let you know that those who want peace in the state far exceeds those who don't and this majority should be given the opportunity have this peace.
In concluding sir, I also don't want you to become hypocritical as many politicians in the country have chosen to be that we don't want religious crises in the country that it is only political. Sir, we do have religious problems in Nigeria like most nations in the world, or how do you explain a situation where electoral disputes result in the burning of churches and mosques - I don’t think those buildings look like polling booths or party secretariats. This position of no religious crises is being adopted in selfishness and lack of political will to deal with this menace. We do have ethno-religious challenge in Plateau and it has become the epicenter of the problem. Sir, you need to call it by its name and address it accordingly. The solution begins with you rising above your ethnic and religious bias and coming as a statesman, knowing when to wield the big stick for those who err, match words with action and fight for the welfare of the citizens under your care.
I wish you all the best in this second term and may it be better than the first.
God bless Plateau state

Nigerian Presidential Election - The Big One
I am inspired to write on this subject again today because of the semblance of success witnessed last Saturday during the Parliamentary elections. The hiccups notwithstanding, I think the record of June 12, 1993 is under serious threat if Jega & his team can repeat this next Saturday when Nigerians go to the polls to elect the number one citizen.
I will like voters all over the country to consider this simple truth about leadership and bear this in mind as they engage their consciences to thumbprint on Saturday.
A leader can be accurately appraised not just based on his personality, level of integrity, not even based on his vision BUT most importantly by the leaders around him. The team that a leader is able to raise up and release to function based on their giftings and expertise will go a long way to determine the success or otherwise of the leader.
Successful Leadership is not about the quality within a leader but much more about the quality around the leader
Having this in mind, please allow me to appraise the contestants parading themselves this Saturday. Again I wont bother myself about the likes of Dele Momodu, Chris Okotie and the other nameless ones.
Incumbent Jonathan: Acclaimed to be very sincere, but how much can he do with the PDP greyhounds that believe that they have done him some favour by giving him the ticket. I believe it will be pay back time if he gets back to Aso Rock & our infrastructures will be the victim
Governor Shekarau - An articulate man, who seems to have something that looks like a vision. ANPP on which platform he is contesting is in tatters and cannot even be called a political party again. He will have to shop for people he does not know to build a team which gives room for opportunists.
AIG Ribadu - untested, not a good orator. His exploits in the EFCC do not qualify him for this awesome responsibility. But if one goes by the antecedents of the party which he represents -ACN - one can see their commitment to team building. Even from the days of not too popular Tinubu, I remember the likes of Prof Osinbajo found themselves in government, experts like Tunde Fowler who is not a politician was given an assignment in the finance ministry. Fashola continued with the legacy, the likes of Ben Akabuaeze who is not even a citizen of the state is in cabinet based on expertise. I believe that if systems must work, we need technocrats & not professional politicians. Fola Adeola's inclusion in this ticket is valuable.
Gen. Buhari (RTD)- has a track record of integrity, not a good orator which Bakare can adequately make up for. I believe this ticket will be on a vengeance mission - I see two angry people here who will be out to do a number on those who have wronged them or who they believe have wronged the nation. This team does not give the much-needed variation in leadership & I foresee a situation where these two guys fall out with each other and we have a repeat of Obasanjo/Atiku feud but with a very dangerous dimension. The feud will have religious coloration, which will polarise the nation along religious lines, which we dread so much (this is very important for me considering the fact that I reside in Jos). I still believe that Buhari is our past & Tunde Bakare has nothing to offer in government. It is tragic to note that Nigerians have not come to terms with the importance of a virile opposition and a well-structured civil society. It is not only by going into executive or legislative governance that one can make a difference in a society.
I want to believe that my readers are in agreement with me that these are the major contenders in the Presidential race & may be you noticed my obvious lack of objectivity. I know I am guilty and so are you, but be sincere enough to consider my observations.

Nigerian Presidential Elections
I have not blogged for a while but I cannot resist the temptation of making some comments on the forthcoming elections after i saw the last debate organised by NN24 news channel.
First of all, I wonder why any right thinking Nigerian is still supporting the incumbent President for refusing to show up at the debate - I think he still believe that this is all about luck
It is quite obvious that we still have a long way to go when one listens to the way issues were raised by the anchor & the responses of the aspirants - there is a general assumption on all sides that Nigeria has all it needs for development and that all that is needed is for someone to get there and disburse the funds - nothing was really mentioned about wealth creation.
All of them stylishly avoided the question on the rift between the Central Bank governor and the legislator; it is still all about patronage.
Buhari said there is nothing wrong with our educational sector, I dont blame him, he never received any, so he might not really know what education is all about. This general is retired and definitely not part of our future
Shekarau should follow in the footsteps of most of the outgoing Governors - Go to the Senate, he will be a good one there. He sounds a bit articulate but definitely is not a Presidential material especially in the 21st century.
Ribadu, though a new face and not much experience; i never really believe in his bid but he seems to be the only untested among the whole lot and he can sure be helped with a good team - Fola's choice as VP is a good one, he understands how to make systems work, he has GT bank as a good CV
Bakare is obviously ambitious and hoping Buhari will die & he can become president; he should cover his face in shame with how he killed the wonderful vision of SNG on the altar of personal ambition. I pray that the love that God has for him and the undeniable call of God upon his life will not make him win so that he can retrace his steps. I know he will want try to reactivate the SNG vision when he loses the election but it will be too late.
I am not one who believes that pastors cannot go into politics and seek political office (infact i might do it some day i don't know yet), but it must be done right with all sincerity. Bakare's bid is lacking in all of these. Imagine the wonderful role of political education and orientation which SNG would have been carrying out today.
Bakare and Buhari cannot in any way work together because both has dictatorial tendencies. The OBJ/Atiku sort of feud will definitely resurface and will come with more unfavourable tendencies as it will finally polarise the nation along religious lines. This is very critical for me because i reside in Jos and i don't have plans of relocating from my adopted city.
As for Oyegun, he is also a face of the old and definitely has nothing to offer.
The VP debate especially just showed that these guys are all saying the same thing & they would have done the nation a whole lot of good if they can just drop their selfish ambitions & come behind Ribadu to push PDP out of Aso Rock, any other thing apart from the PDP would do for starters
On a lighter note, I am glad NN24 did not bother invite the other comedians like Dele Momodu (I have really missed his wonderful articles), my English teacher Rev Chris Okotie and such like...
I still believe we have a long way to go but we will definitely get there
Blessings on NIgeria

What's the Value of Human Life
How much is a human life worth in the 21st century especially with the widespread campaign of animal rights? I used to think it was a problem of the global North, but i am sure having a rethink...
I was a part of discussion some years ago about how the issue of animal right is sweeping the Western nations. A story was told (I can't confirm how authentic) about a research carried to determine which life is valued more - animal or human. A 3 year old child and a little dog were left wandering the street and it was discovered that the emergency 911 line received far more calls about the dog than the child. When I heard that this i thought these guys have really gone beserk. While I was thinking about all the attention given to Octopus Paul during the world cup and wondering about the state of human perversion, I was totally knocked out when I saw Zain Verje, my favourite anchor on CNN almost shedding tears when she was announcing the death and burial Octopus Paul. I concluded & safely too that this might be as a result of the fact that the basic needs of these fortunate Westerners are met and they really dont have much to worry about. But I had a gory experiece yesterday when i found myself at an accident scene on Ogbomosho-Ibadan road involving a long truck carrying rams. Human beings and rams were scattered all over the coal tar - I was shocked to my bones when I saw these Fulanis totally abandoned their injuted colleagues, left them to bleed to death while they were busy making sure that the rams do not wander off or may be get stolen.
I never knew that the Westerners learnt about the idea animal life being of more value than that of humans from us.

2011, more than the Presidency
It suddenly dawned on me that all that is being said, written and discussed about next year's election has been limited to the Presidential elections and who gets to seat in Aso Rock. This myopic view of the forthcoming election which to my mind speak volume of the level of our political immaturity also reveals a massive blind spot which the political opportunists out there are seizing to continue to plunder the nation. There is a big game plan going on by ex governors to turn the senate chambers to their have in order to continue where they left off with the plundering of resources in their various state houses. Virtually all the ex governors have launched their senatorial campaigns and the unsuspecting citizens are totally unaware of this development. As we intensify the campaign against the stepping back of IBB, we should also not lose sight of these petty thieves called ex governors; the EFCC should conclude without any delay the prosecution of these guys and remove them from civilization into where they really belong. I am just sounding this alarm that these guys will leave no stone unturned to see that the status quo is maintained.
2011 elections is more than just the Presidency regardless of how important and critical the office is - the national assembly has become a great channel of wastage in recent times and it must be closely monitored too. Just sounding an alarm

Jos Main Market: Can someone please update us
I was privileged to visit the United States of America early this year and my trip took me to a city called Seattle, the capital of the North Western state of Washington. Seattle is a city of many firsts and the home of many world changing blue chip companies like Microsoft, the IT giants, Boeing, the aircraft manufacturers, Amazon, the online shopping mall and of course Starbucks the coffee giants. But none of these multi-billion investments really caught my attention like the Pike Place Market situated in downtown Seattle because of the glaring similarities of this market with our own Jos Main Market which has been lying in ruins for the past nine years. Pike Place Market is more than a place to buy and sell goods but has grown over the years to become a major tourist centre attracting millions of dollars to this wealthy city due to the government's deliberate and intentional efforts to make it so, this of course could not have happened without the cooperation of the organized private sector. The market oozes with the diverse culture of culture of Seattle city, there is absolutely no good from any part of the world that you cannot get to buy in this market. This place is a market and more, it is the place where the city converges, people meet old friends there, schedule business meetings there. Of particular attraction is the fish throwing practice of the Asian fish sellers which has attracted many tourists from all over the world to just come and see. It was once aired on CNN as a special program. Jos and Plateau state prides itself as the centre of peace and tourism; this market with all its potential to be a world class tourist attraction has been abandoned for this long, the income generating capacity of this market cannot be overemphasized. The market is regarded as the largest and most modern of such markets in the whole of the West African sub-region (I don’t have the statistics or facts to confirm this please). I am using this medium to call on the government agency responsible for this Market to revisit it and see to it that this market comes back to life. The non-functioning of this market might not be unconnected with the restiveness in the city as many youths were rendered jobless since the market was gutted by fire and they become easy recruits for violent activities. The government might give the usual excuse of no money but I believe that there are many private developers who will be willing to partner with government to rebuild this market and manage for a specific period of time to recoup their investment and the beneficiary will be the whole citizenry. We must learn not to play politics with issues of this nature because it is not far from the thinking of the powers to put political and ethnic considerations before the interest of the populace.
Jos Main market can be a money spinning venture for the City and the state and many employment opportunities will be created and be own Pike Place Market. I have always believed that if people have a place to go to daily to earn a living or business place to protect, it will be difficult for them to engage in violent acts.
Can someone please explain to us what is happening with the Jos Main Market!
NB: you can learn more about Pike Place Market, Seattle from their website: http://www.pikeplacemarket.org/
