Sons of the soil: the history of the Gbagyi people of Abuja

The history of Abuja was originally the south western part of the ancient Habe (Hausa) Kingdom of Zazzau (Zaria). It was populated for centuries by several semi-independent tribes. The largest of these tribes was the Gbagyi. Other areas where they are predominantly found are in Niger and Kaduna states, and also in Nasarawa, Kogi and Kwara states in central Nigeria. The Gbagyi’s are the most populated ethnic group in the FCT and their major occupation is farming, pottery and hunting. They are the original settlers of Abuja the federal capital city of Nigeria, and the Gbagyi language is the most widespread. They are known to be noble, peace loving accommodating and warm. Their hospitable and cordial nature earned them the phrase ‘ Muyi shi Gwari-Gwari’ ( Which means let’s do it like the Gbagys). Interestingly the word Gwari, which the Gbagyi are famously called, is the name of a particular yam in Gbagyi. The Gbagys are culturally soaked people, who despite the over-whelming forc...

Ahmed Bobboi: the Man who changed the Face of PEF

‘’The mark of a great man is one who knows when to set aside the important things in order to accomplish the vital ones.’’ -- Brandon Sanderson By Ahmed Ali Among the first positive things Ahmed Bobboi did when he took over the mantle of leadership at the Petroleum Equalization Fund (PEF) was to introduce a staff posting and deployment policy, the first of its kind in the history of PEF. It was a sign that the Petroleum Equalization Fund was into a new dawn.

Although many who worked with him or have came in contact with the unassuming public servant described him as a man full with ideas and very passionate in doing his job. Ahmed Bobboi no doubt has etched ...

Let’s debate and jaw-jaw

A debate is described as the mutual understanding of two or more people to talk about something at length and in detail, especially as part of a formal exchange of opinion. It is the ability of different minds to talk and ponder about something carefully, argue and intellectually proffer a satisfactory solution.   A debate in other words is to jaw-jaw with brain and at the end a solution arrived at to tackle any negative wahala or kata-kata . I like debates because they give you the chance to know your weakness and at the same time comprehend your opponent’s own.   It is sometimes fun and educative to listen to other people talk and by talking you shall know them, because what comes out of the mind of a person defines his or her thinking.   So I was very happy and excited last week that a slated debate among some of our prominent presidential contenders was in the offing. I had sharpened my brain to absolve some of the missiles and punches that might have been thrown at...
