NORTHERN LEADERS

Image
In the words of a social commentator, U. Qasim, "silence is golden when speaking is not necessary; but speaking is golden in the face of tyranny, incompetence and gross failure of leadership structure." It is these true words that inspire me to speak in the face of gross failure of Northern leaders. A situation that has made us look pitiable even to those who looked pitiable to us in the past.  Why is it that our leaders have always been interested in occupying positions and never for once interested in developing our region - human and infrastructural wise? We packaged Almajiri phenomenal until it was shameful to continue in that path. Illiteracy strives more than before; kidnapping and banditry forms our identity. Rape is the new epidemic our leaders are still clueless to tackle. Our governors have no working plan to curb illiteracy, rape, kidnapping and other emerging issues. They are more clueless than ever. Youths speak up! Act now! Decide your future! Comr Kabiru Ndagi ...

Brief historical antecedent of Gbagyi people

Image
The Gbagyi are widespread in Niger, Kaduna, and Plateau states and the Federal Capital Territory. Some lives in Kogi state.  In many places, particularly in FCT, Kogi and Kaduna states, they are interspersed with other people. They are divided into two main groups. The eastern groups is called Gbagyi-Ngenge or Gbagyi-Matai and they are more populous. The western groups are called Gbagyi-Nkwa or Gbagyi-Yamma. The western and eastern groups speak different languages, and within them, there are sub-groups and dialects. Not all Gbagyi agree on what the divisions are. Whereas the Gbagyi people living in towns and cities are quite modernized, the vast population of rural dwellers are little affected by modern ways. Their attitude towards modern clothing and medical care is increasingly positive, but most rural Gbagyi, being farmers, see education as a waste of time. The average literacy level is 27%. Primary schools and health facilities are not well distributed. In many places, roads ar...

THE BELIEFS AND PRACTICES OF VARIOUS FORMS OF WITCHCRAFT AMONG THE GBAGYI PEOPLE

Image
These include agunzheyin (“witchcraft”), ashigbe (“medicine”), and zoku (“divination”). These three concepts have the inherent meanings of good and evil. This essay, however, highlights more of their negative influence.Witchcraft: Reality, Theory &InterpretationHenry Jay Watkin in defining witchcraft draws from the Eurocentric conception it represents. He says the word “witch” comes from the English noun “Wicca” which means, “to cast spell.” He therefore defined it as “a web of beliefs and practices whose purpose is to manipulate nature for the benefit of the witch or the witche's client.” The New Shorter Oxford Dictionary sees it as “the practice of witch or witches especially the use of magic or sorcery: the exercise of supernatural power supposed to be possessed by a person in league with devil or evil spirits.” While the first definition agrees mostly with the concept of witchcraft in Gbagyi land which generally has to do with „the witches‟ being able to influence supernatu...
