By Tochukwu Ezukanma<\/p>\n

There is a preponderant representation of the Igbo in the ever
\nburgeoning population of Lagos State. Secondly, the immense economic
\npower of Ndigbo in Lagos is awesomely evident. One of our major concerns
\nhas been how to translate our enormous population and colossal economic
\npower to commensurate political power in this heterogeneous state with
\nits divergent and contending interests. Refreshingly, we have been quite
\nsuccessful in channeling our massive population and economic clout to
\npolitical power in Lagos. More than any other Igbo, Joe Igbokwe has
\nspearheaded the effort to make Ndigbo relevant in the politics of Lagos
\nState.<\/p>\n

In the words of a former President of Auto Spare Parts And Machine
\nDealers Association (ASPAMDA), Chief Anthony Ughagwu, \u201cHe is a very
\nimportant and powerful personality in the government of the state. He is
\nvery close to the governor and other leaders of the party and
\ngovernment\u201d. Igbokwe was therefore right when he described himself as
\n\u201cthe gateway between Ndigbo in Lagos and the state government\u201d. And,
\nin his own words, \u201cYou cannot be in government and not deliver to your
\npeople\u201d. Undoubtedly, he has delivered to Ndigbo in Lagos State. His
\ntireless labor to advance our political, economic, and sometimes,
\nhumanitarian interests in the state has yielded copious dividend.<\/p>\n

Although, for the most part, the Igbo hitched their political stars with
\nthe Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Igbokwe made it possible for Ndigbo
\nto benefit significantly from the All Progressive Congress (APC)
\ngovernments of Lagos State. On the average, every five minutes, he
\nreceives a call from an Igbo in Lagos seeking his help in resolving a
\nproblem. Readily, routinely, he delves into these problems and delivers
\nthe needed results. These are in areas that include land (Omonile, C of
\nO, etc), government regulations, LASTMA, police, court, jobs, education,
\nfinancial help and moral support.<\/p>\n

For example, at the Agric Building Materials Market in Coker, Orile,
\nLagos, the traders\u2019 association had a long-running conflict with the
\nApapa\/Iganmu Local Council Development Area (LCDA) government. There
\nwere a number of contending issues (price of trade permits, sanitation
\nand environment and the politics of Iya Loja and Papa Loja) between the
\ntraders\u2019 association and the LCDA government. The government was
\nthreatening to seal off the market until the conflicts were resolved.
\nFrightened by the prospect of closing down this predominantly Igbo
\nmarket, with its more than 3000 traders and hundreds of ancillary
\nartisans and laborers, the then President of the Agric Building Material
\nMarket Association, Ebere Ifemeje, reached out to Joe Igbokwe; and
\nIgbokwe intervened.<\/p>\n

Igbokwe led the leaders of the association to a meeting with the
\nchairman of the LCDA, and the matter was immediately resolved. Ebere
\nIfemeje was lyrical as he described the meeting. He said: the executive
\nmembers of the association and I were going to the meeting somewhat
\nnervous and apprehensive, not knowing what to expect from it. However,
\nas we walked in, Igbokwe\u2019s presence made all the difference. In
\ndeference to him, the LCDA chairman, who repeatedly referred to him as
\n\u201cmy leader\u201d, literally yielded the floor to him. And the meeting
\nwent from what I had expected to be a protracted, almost intractable
\nnegotiation to the chairman agreeing to all our demands. The trade
\npermit hike was rescinded and the plan to bring in Iya Loja and Papa
\nLoja into the market was shelved.<\/p>\n

The Auto Spare Part And Machine Dealers Association (ASPAMDA) market is
\na magnificent fixture at the Trade Fair Complex. This massive, sprawling
\nmulti-edifice is a powerful testament to Igbo entrepreneurial spirit and
\nhard-edge work ethics. It was originally built by Igbo auto parts
\ndealers that relocated from Idumota. Presently, it has grown into one of
\nthe biggest auto parts markets in Africa. The traders in this
\ninternational market chose three distinguished Igbo sons as their
\npatrons: Senator Ifeanyi Uba, His Excellency, Peter Obi, and Joe
\nIgbokwe.<\/p>\n

Why was Joe Igbokwe chosen as one of their patrons? Chief Anthony
\nUghagwu enthused, \u201cWith his pivotal position in the government of
\nLagos, and his willingness to serve Ndigbo, we have regularly called on
\nhim whenever we needed the assistance of the state government. Secondly,
\nhe is a peace builder. He steps in and restores peace whenever, wherever
\nthe Igbo are having problems in the state.\u201d\u00a0 At a point, the entire
\nASPAMDA was in crisis. Trouble was brewing everywhere. Embroiled in a
\nseries of conflicts, people were suing and counter-suing; there were
\nmany cases pending in court. Igbokwe came in and used the influence of
\nthe state government to restored peace. He encouraged the litigants to
\nwithdraw their cases from court, and many of the cases were settled out
\nof court. His involvement brought peace to ASPAMDA. \u201cWith these\u201d,
\nUghagwu said, \u201cHe earned my respect and the respect of the entire
\nleadership of ASPAMDA. So, we made him our patron\u201d.<\/p>\n

Another ASPAMDA leader that prefers anonymity, said, \u201cIgbokwe is a
\nservant-leader. With his time, position and resources, he has been
\nserving the Igbo in the state. No matter the problem or the complainant,
\nhe steps in to help, and most of the time, he facilitates a just and
\nequitable settlement\u201d. A litany of Igbokwe\u2019s contributions to the
\nadvancement of the good of the Igbo in Lagos is beyond the scope of this
\narticle. However, the point is that his alternative political
\naffiliation, coupled with his commitment to the service his people have
\nbeen most advantageous for Ndigbo in Lagos, and by extension, Ndigbo in
\ngeneral.<\/p>\n

Ironically, he has been a target of unremitting insults from some Igbo
\ngroups, especially, the separatist Igbo movements. In their
\nnarrow-mindedness, these groups see alternative political views as
\n\u201cdisloyalty\u201d, political bridge-building as \u201csabotage\u201d, and
\npolitical compromise as \u201cselling out\u201d. But then, differences in
\npolitical views are the essence of democracy, and bridge-building and
\ncompromise are indispensible ingredients for success in politics,
\nespecially, in a multifarious country like ours.<\/p>\n

With his broadmindedness and uncanny ability to strike that even balance
\nthat respects the delicate sensibilities of the Yoruba and accommodates
\nthe barging industriousness of the Igbo, Igbokwe brought increased
\nopportunities, and open up new political vistas, for Ndigbo in Lagos
\nState. In his own words, \u201cYou cannot be in government and not
\ndeliver\u2026\u201d In line with this declaration of his, he unquestionably
\ndelivered to the Igbo. For this, the Igbo are saying kudos to Joe
\nIgbokwe.<\/p>\n
