The coastal state of Gujarat in Western India, famous for being the birthplace of Mahatma Ghandi, is home to 50million Indians or 5% of the country’s population of 1billion people.
On 7th October 2001, the then 51 year old Shri Narendra Damodardas Modi was sworn in as Chief Minister of the state of Gujarat. 3 things are important to note about the time when Mr Modi became Chief Minister.
In 2000 Gujarat was in a recession and the economy shrank by 5%. In January 2001, 10 months before Mr Modi took office; a devastating earthquake measuring 7.7 on the Richter scale struck the state killing 20,000 people and destroying nearly 400,000 homes. In March 2002, 6 months after Mr Modi took office, Gujarat erupted in communal riots which claimed 1,000 lives. Most of the victims were members of the minority Muslim community in Gujarat. Mr Modi is Hindu.
The above points to the fact that the situation Mr Modi inherited as Chief Minister was by no means an easy one. So what’s he done with his inheritance since? He’s now in his 3rd term in office by the way.
Gujarat’s economy is currently growing at an 11% clip per annum. India as a whole is growing at 9% per annum. Gujarat accounts for 16% of India’s industrial production and 22% of the country’s exports. While 85% of India’s villages

Shehu Kaikai: A one-man ACF - By Garba Shehu
I have avoided the use of pejorative name, Kaduna mafia, to describe this extraordinary gentleman because of its obvious negative connotation. Let me call him a one-man ACF (The Arewa Consultative Forum). The truth is if any reporter goes to Kaduna looking for a group of men and women, meeting regularly in the name of Kaduna mafia, to design good or evil for the North and against the interest of Nigerians, he or she will come back disappointed because no such group can really be pin - pointed.
But there is a large number of people, in the North and Nigeria who know a versatile and influential Nigerian who together with others pull levers beyond what anyone could imagine. He is a social crusader engaged in doing public good day in day out. So if a Kaduna mafia however exists in one person doing public good and promoting righteousness in public conduct, both by businessmen and those in government, Shehu Kaikai captures my imagination of that mafia.
Shehu has intellectual rigour and deep reasoning. He is a knowledge and ideas hub. But because he is neither Wole Soyinka nor Father Kukah, the rest of the country outside the North is not used to his name as they should. Again, he is quick to answer that he is non-political. But
