THE NEWLY IMPOSED METHOD OF SELECTING THE PONZHI LANGTANG (Ponzhi taroh)
Quote "Those we learned from history avoid the mistakes of yesterday -sir_pz"
The newly imposed method of selecting ponzhi Langtang commonly referred to as Ponzhi Taroh come up about a month time after the death of Ponzhi Garba Wuyep. The selection was through balloting with twelve (12) members as kingmakers. Each of these kingmakers has a right to nominate a candidate and the composition of members are followes:-
4 members from the big Langtang district with only Ponzhi Mbin Ndam Miri (late) from the Royal Family, 4 from the tiny district of Gazum and 3 each from Bwarat and Gani Districts.
Here, then one would be tempted to observe that, the Royal Family is almost left out. One can see the intention of the government in the composition of the kingmakers. To make matters worse, three Gazum families of (Lagan) "Luktuk" and "Gangtang" Were included into the ruling Houses of "CE". This move by the government didn't only bring shock to the "CE" Clan along but the entire Tarok community as they couldn't see how the inclusion was arrived at without first of all consulting the elders of "CE" Other clans and the local government council which should have rectified the inclusion in the new method.
WHY WAS LAGAN, LUKTUK AND GANTANG FAMILIES INCLUDED IN "CE" RULING CLASS?
