Untold Story About Otukpo
What many Idomas do not know is that the Igedes has been a major driver of the Otukpo rice mill industry in the 70s,80s,90s, and 2000s
The Otukpo rice mill industry, the only thriving industry in the whole of the Idoma land then, was highly dominated and owned by non-indigenes.
The Igedes largely owned and pioneered the growth of that rice mill industry.
At one point, the Otukpo rice mill was known as the largest rice mill in West Africa.
How did I know?
My father was an engineer there and my uncles owned many of the Engines and were largely bringing in raw rice into the Otukpo rice mill industry.
While most of the idomas were doing menial jobs there.
With all the so-called big names from Idoma land, can they mention any significant growth or major achievements in Idoma land?
Their major achievements are to have bullï£d the Igede tribe, the Igbo tribes, the Hausa and the Yorubas that developed the Idoma land.
*From the rice mill industry
* To the Otukpo main market
* To the thriving supermarkets.
* To medicine stores, pharmacies.
Etc.
The majority of these were owned by non-indigenes, not Idomas.
As someone who was born and schooled in Otukpo, I can tell you for free that an average IDOMA YOUTH IS LAZIER.
* THEY ONLY SIT AND WAIT FOR FREE MONEY FROM POLITICIANS, THOSE WHO HAVE EARNED THEIR HARD MONEY.
* AN AVERAGE IDOMA IS A TAX COLLECTOR.
*AN AVERAGE IDOMA IS A BULLY.
* AN AVERAGE IDOMA IS ENTITLED.
AN AVERAGE IDOMA MAN IS FULL OF PRIDE.
It is not today that they have started bullyïñg the igedes, but the igedes will keep excelling.
Their pain is that they COULDN'T SUBDUE THE IGEDES AND USE THEM AGAINST THE TIVS.
