Marginalization of Orokam Community.
Fact has emerged as regards the visit of Ogbadibo Cultural Carnival team lead by my Johson Agada to Okam Forum Abuja on Sunday to secure the endorsement of the proposed Carnival,
It was gathered that the meeting ended in a deadlock as the Forum led by its chairman Col Apochi RTD Wasn’t satisfied with elementary arrangement so far.
According to an insider who is a member of the forum, said that “ the group discovered from the letter addressed to the forum that the name of Orokam was written in lowercase among the three communities mentioned as host communities, a development that prompted the chairman to reject the letter until the team admitted it was a typographical error, they back up their innocence with another copy of the letter where the name was written in upper case letters.
“Another issue that the Forum frowned at was the names of the organizing committee in which none of any Orokam son or daughter made the list as Orokam was completely left out, all the names were from Otukpa and only one person was named from Owukpa community who was absent from the meeting, the group was not however happy with the situation and therefore asked Mr Agada to go back to his drawing board and do the needful.
Mr Itodo Favour Austine , an Orokam lagos base activities had in the past raised an alarm over what he described as the marginalization of Orokam Community in the appointment of the organizing committee at the elementary stage of the proposed Ogbadibo Cultural Carnival which is scheduled to take place in December 2016,the Orokam United Forum Secretary General in a statement through Idoma Voice accused Mr Johnson Agada of his discriminatory appointment by not seeing any Orokam son or daughter worthy to be part of the organizing committee, shortly ,Mr Agada Johnson appointed him as the coordinator OCC Lagos State which he posted on the event facebook page, a position Mr Itodo is yet to accept till date as he claimed he is not comfortable with circumstances surrounding the appointment. What the Okam Forum group has done is the confirmation of the allegation raised by the Lagos Based activist last month.
If the Ogbadibo Cultural Carnival is worth celebrating, If the Cultural Carnival is for the interest of Ogbadibo, justice must be done to the injustice in the selection of the organizing committee else the good people of Orokam may be tempted to consider the option of opting out of the proposed carnival.

APC HAS FAILED, PDP SHOULD TAKE BACK POWER IN BENUE- Young Alhaji.
APC HAS FAILED, PDP SHOULD TAKE BACK
POWER IN BENUE- Young Alhaji. Political gladiator and pillar of the
opposition in Benue State, Alh. Usman
Abubakar Maishanu, aka Young Alhaji, has
expressed a strong desire to see the
People's Democratic Party (PDP) take back
power in the state at all subsequent
elections.
Young Alhaji made those remarks when he
received members of the PDP State Working
Committee led by State Chairman, John
Ngbede, at his Otukpo residence this
morning.
The Accord Party leader in the state carpeted
the All Progressives Congress (APC)- led
government in the state of having failed
woefully, describing the state governor,
Samuel Ortom as the most incompetent ever
in the history of the state.
He pointed to the government's inability to
pay salaries, administer the N28.5 billion
bailout, as well as inability to execute any
meaningful project in the state despite
collecting close to N60 billion in loans and
over N100 billion in federal allocations and
internally generated revenues.
The former senatorial contender in the
Benue-South Senatorial District particularly
expressed satisfaction in what he described
as the new found momentum and
organisational efficiency of the PDP under
the leadership of John Ngbede, expressing
optimism that the opposition party will floor
the ruling APC at any electoral contest.
In his remarks earlier, State Chairman of the
PDP, John Ngbede, commended Young Alhaji
for having remained consistent in his
political philosophy and having upheld the
highest ideals in defence of the interests of
the ordinary people and the common good
of society.
Young Alhaji who led an efficient and effective
alliance of opposition parties to successfully
deliver victory for former Senate President,
David Mark, of the PDP in the February 20th
Senatorial re-run election this year in Benue-
South Senatorial District, said he is open to
more alliances with the main opposition
party in the interest of Benue people.
What a Change.
