Nairaland / General / Statement From Original Indigenous Youth by Leokpas777(m): 6:29pm On Oct 19, 2020
Our Stand On the Ongoing #EndSARS Protests.

Our attention has been drawn to an outrageous action by one Yusuf Ahmadu Yunusa and his ilks who claim to have acted on behalf of the indigenous people of Abuja. According to media reports, Yusuf and his people claim that the indigenous people of Abuja are against the protests going on across the country. We wish to categorically dissociate ourselves from Yusuf and the actions of his gang. We find his claims offensive and insulting to the countless Gbagyi youths who have been harassed and extorted by the now defunct Special Anti-Robbery Squad.

Gbagyi people the world over are known to be hospitable and for upholding the dignity and sanctity of human life. We have, over the years, condemned the extrajudicial killings of Nigerian youths by policemen. While we condemn any attempt to hijack the #EndSARS campaign by unscrupulous elements, we stand solemnly with our fellow youths who have taken to the street to demand an end to the killer squad as well as a total reform of the police force. We would never oppose a demand for a better and an egalitarian society, and we definitely did not appoint Yusuf Ahmadu Yunusa to speak for us. We have been victims of injustice for too long to support any form of oppression meted upon our fellow citizens.

The Gbagyi people of Nigeria are a peculiar set, scattered across the geography of Nigeria and further divided across religious and dialectical lines; dismissed as a bush tribe that must continuously be pushed farther from civilization. Like the red Indians, our lands have been taken, our ancestral homes destroyed to give way to urban development (one we are denied the enjoyment of). From the hills of Maitama to the vastness of Wuse our people were forcefully evicted and turned into tenants in Kubwa and faraway Niger state; in the heart of Bwaya (Bwari), a stranger was imposed upon our brethren as paramount ruler; throughout Kaduna state, history is constantly been rewritten to erase the place of Gbagyi people as the indigenous tribe – from the renaming of towns and villages to the distortion of the true origin of Queen Amina; Nassarawa is a lost home to us as we have no say in matters of the state at all.

There is a desperate need to take charge of our affairs and tell our own stories. But no individual can do this. We believe that the individual, like every society, develops on three fronts: intellectually, socially, and physically. This knowledge inspires in us the hope that we can instigate the Gbagyi youth unto the onerous yet indisputably rewarding path of self-development. With a population of over twelve million (12,000,000), if regulated and channeled towards meaningful transactions, we qualify for a resilient political, social and economic group.

Our grandmother, Ladi Kwali showed us many decades ago that through dedication everything is possible. With no formal education, she became a global sweetheart – traveling through European universities to deliver lectures about her craft and eventually bagging the highest British honor. Today, decades after her demise, Ladi Kwali is immortalized on our twenty naira (N20) note and with statues in different places across the country. We have more opportunities today than grandma Ladi Kwali had during her day. There is so much that we can achieve as a people, but we would never achieve our full potentials with a police force that harass, extort and murder us in our own country.

We refuse to remain silent while some lazy and hungry youths use us as their meal tickets. This is also a warning to sell-out activists who may want to take advantage of our parents in the villages. The Gbagyi people of Abuja have suffered enough from government negligence and from hyenas who take advantage of our sensibilities to line their pockets with coins. We are awoken to the important task of cleaning house and reclaiming our dignity as law-abiding Nigerians.

We will be going live on this platform to discuss this and other issues. Please join us.

God bless every Gbagyiza the world over
God bless Gbagyi Nation
God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Nairaland / General / Imposition Of King By FCT Minister To Bwari Natives by Leokpas777(m): 8:32pm On Nov 08, 2017
PRESS RELEASE ON THE ILLEGAL APPOINTMENT OF
Alhaji A wwal Musa Mohammed Ijakoro
AS C HIEF OF BWARI (2ND Class)

Gentlemen of the press, it could be recalled that on the 24th of October
2017, the Honorable Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Alhaji
Muhammed Musa Bello, in exercise of powers conferred on him under relevant
Sections of the FC T Chiefs (Appointment and Deposition) Act, 1997. Had
erroneously and illegally appointed a certain Alhaji Awwal Musa Mohammed
Ijakoro as Chief of Bwari. Alh. Awwal Musa Ijakoro is a son of Late Alh.
Muhammed Musa Ijakoro who was mistakenly appointed as Sarkin Bwari by
Lt. Gen. Jeremiah U seni, the then Minister of FCT.
Alh. Moham med Musa Ijakoro was a man who was welcomed to Bwari to
discharge his du ties as a task collector whose origin is from Ijakoro Tafa local
Government Area of Niger state. Late Ijakoro is not from Bwari Area Council
but from Tafa Local Government Area of Niger State. As Bwaya community
migrated from Mountain foot to the present settlement in around 1890, the
population Increased and some decades later, three (3) district were created
under Suleja Emirate namely: Bwari, Kwali and Kuje, districts. The district
heads were posted to perform purely administrative functions which were
primarily tax collection. They were government representatives posted from
Suleja Emirate. They were transferable. They had no connection whatsoever
with the existing chieftaincy diadem of the place they were posted to.

For the sake of clarification, the following people before Ijakoro were posted to
Bwari as District heads and sub sequent transferred back to Suleja.
1. Ma’aji Ali 1902 – 1934
2. Ishaku Mohammed Gani 1935 - 1954
3. Abubakar Barau Musa Angu lu 1954 - 1975
4. Musa Ijakoro 1976 - 1997
Now the question is how comes Musa Ijakoro became the Sarki of Bwari instead
of District head (tax collector) .
While in Bwari as a tax collector and as expected by the Muslims especially
the Hausawa’s they rallied round him as Hakimi of Hausawa’s which appetitive
geared his district administrative functions to the chieftaincy stool of Bwari.
Lt. General. J.T Useni in 1992 being military Minister of FCT and being
misinformed about the chieftaincy affairs of Bwari, Erroneously appointed him.
Alh. Musa Ijakoro being thirsty for the stool accepted the appointment and
received a nomenclature of SARAKIN BWARI which is a contravention of section
8 (i) (c) of the chiefs Appointment and Disposition of FCT.
Among other deprivation, exclusion and marginalization we will not live to
allow our traditional Institution to be rubbished in FCT, among other things that
has been done to us against the constitution we will never allow this, we want to
let the world know that the minister did not consult Bwari Area Council kings
markers, we challenge the minister to tell us who and who he consulted before doing this kind of terrible error that will cost pains, crisis etc to generations to come if not averted now.

This is simply denying the Bwari indigenes the privilege to manage the affairs
of their cultures and traditions, by appointing a non-Gbagyi person to rule over our
traditional institutions amounts to transforming us to something else other than
traditional institutions, which we will not succumb or agree to it.

Let the Honorable
Minister be reminded that conflict is a fact of life. It is not desirable, yet no society is devoid of it. For long we have failed to accept the incontestable fact this conflict
which all of us claim to repudiate e is the result of the arrogant and blatant
violation of the fundamental principles of justice, equity, and equality in our
humanity and fairness in the actions of government. Previous administrations have
cleverly refused to see this evil, but in this case of the present administration of
Honorable Minster of the FCT, this violate on is openly popularized.

We hereby challenge the Honorable Minister to study the structure and composition of our chiefdom s and how they have been ruled previously, we wish
to reinstate that this agenda that you are now pursuing in respect to the illegal
appointment will in no way help your administration, it will rather throw the FCT
and Bwari Council Area will be thrown into greater chaos and therefore truncate
the peaceful co-existence you claim the appointment of a new Chief in Bwari will
achieve. May we close our case by calling on well-meaning Nigerians to stand up
against injustice and marginalization, this is an act of day light robbery aimed at
further marginalizing the Gbagyi people in Abuja, and we will use our strength and

resource to stand against this illegality and act of conspiracy perpetrated by the
Honorable Minister of the FCT. History has given us opportunity today to tell the
whole world the past and the present Esus, Sabwaya (chiefs) that has ruled in
Bwari Chiefdom since 14th century.
1. Tayebebe
2. Dada Do gnuyi
3. Gbabun aza
4. Ladu
5. Kayi
6. Nbwawazayi
7. Nyagnache
8. Atna
9. Anyibada
10. Shebazhin
11. Tamanzhin
12. Zamayi
13. Yaro
14 . Alh. Adamu Samu Pkasaba
1 5. Mr. Isuwa Gbegbe Zamayi
16. Dr. Dimas Isuwa Zamayi
17. Mr. Ibrahim Yaro JP (Current Esu)

We will continue to recognize our ruler Ibrahim Yaro the Esu of Bwari as
the only genuine traditional leader of the whole Bwari Area Council and so
shall we continue to recognize him till eternity.
We say NO to any imposed Chief in Bwari. We say No to being referred to
as 3rd Class traditional institution. We say a resounding NO to two kings in
our ancestral land Bwari.

Long Live Esu Bwari- HRH. Ibrahim Yaro (JP)
Long Live Bwari Community.
Long Live Bwari Area Council.
Long Live Federal Capital Territory.
Long live Federal Republic of Nigeria.
Long live Africa.
