Book excerpt: As the "Giant of Africa" Nigeria is home to about twenty percent of the population of Sub-Saharan Africa, serves as Africa's largest producer of oil and natural gas, comprises Africa's largest economy, and represents the cultural center of African literature, film, and music. Yet the country is plagued by problems that keep it from realizing its potential as a world power. Boko Haram, a radical Islamist insurrection centered in the northeast of the country, is an ongoing security challenge, as is the continuous unrest in the Niger Delta, the heartland of Nigeria's petroleum wealth. There is also persistent violence associated with land and water use, ethnicity, and religion. In Nigeria: What Everyone Needs to Know(R), John Campbell and Matthew Page provide a rich contemporary overview of this crucial African country. Delving into Nigeria's recent history, politics, and culture, this volume tackles essential questions related to widening inequality, the historic 2015 presidential election, the persistent security threat of Boko Haram, rampant government corruption, human rights concerns, and the continual conflicts that arise in a country that is roughly half Christian and half Muslim. With its continent-wide influence in a host of areas, Nigeria's success as a democracy is in the fundamental interest of its African neighbors, the United States, and the international community. This book will provide interested readers with an accessible, one-of-a-kind overview of the country.

Download or read book Mohammed Chris Alli's The Federal Republic of Nigerian Army written by Maduabuchi Dukor and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2018-06-14 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mohammed Chris Alli is a retired Nigerian Army Major General who served as Chief of Army Staff from 1993 to 1994 under General Sanni Abacha's regime and was military governor of Plateau State Nigeria from August 1985 to 1986 during the military regime of General Ibrahim Babangida. Many years later, he was appointed interim administrator of the state during a 2004 crisis in the state following ethno-religious killings in Shendam, Yelwa Local Government. In this anthology, organized as a symposium on Mohammed Christopher Allis work, he is identified as one of those critical and rational thinkers, philosophers, albeit, a General in the Nigerian Army, whose work finds a befitting logical space in the contemporary African philosophical tapestry. The book also captures the elements of military misrule in Nigeria and its undue influence on the body polity; it is a critical survey of past military misadventures, and a satire against false federalism, it is a firm warning against future corruption and impunity in the military.

Book excerpt: From January 1973 to April 30th 2015, Nigerian currency (₦) has been devalued over 30,500%% and price of petrol has gone up from ₦0.06 in 1973 to ₦97 in 2015 that is 16,160,000%% in 42 years in a country that has an abundance crude oil. In 1983 armed with guns and few men, he quietly usurped power to eradicate chronic corruption in Nigeria; He inherited empty treasury and his frantic efforts to avoid austerity measures because of the love he has for the masses made the same corrupt politicians to connive with their military wing and ousted him out in 1985. He waited 16 years for another opportunity to finish what he started many years ago. The only difference this time around is Yemi Osinbajo who is a dedicated Christian. There is another possibility that the treasury might be empty this time and IMF probably be waiting for Nigeria to ask for a loan. The battle is drawn between Muhammadu Buhari vs. Corruption.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this edited volume, Nigerian scholars from a variety of disciplines examine the relationship between gender and Nigeria’s pathways of development in the last 100 years of its nationhood. This analysis is set against the background of unequal power dynamics between women and men, and specifically the ways in which social, cultural, political, and economic construction of gender has influenced Nigeria’s course of development through her colonial and post-colonial history. The influence of the nature of economic governance, policy, and institutional frameworks, the nature of resource availability and (re)distribution between women and men in terms of goods and services, knowledge and skills, policies and budgets, and the outcomes and impacts for women and men are seen in terms of women’s economic empowerment, equal participation and development benefits. This rich collection of empirical works therefore provides not just the rhetoric but the evidence to indict gender power relations in Nigeria, especially at the institutional level. This volume unpacks and explores this recurrent problem with a the goal of identifying new pathways for gender relations.

Download or read book K. O. Mbadiwe written by Hollis R. Lynch and published by Springer. This book was released on 2012-05-03 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a comprehensive political biography of Kingsley Ozuomba Mbadiwe, (1915-1990), a central figure in Nigerian political history for more than forty years. Starting in 1936 as a protégé of Nnamdi Azikiwe, then Nigeria's most renowned nationalist, Mbadiwe himself by the 1950s became a frontline nationalist. And next to Tafawa Balewa from the North who became Prime Minster in 1957, he was the most important figure in the Nigerian Federal Government between 1952 and Nigeria's first military coup in 1966. During this time he held a succession of important Cabinet positions and was Parliamentary Leader of the National Council of Nigeria and the Cameroons (NCNC), which was in a ruling alliance with the Northern People's Congress (NPC). In contrast, his older prominent political contemporaries, Azikiwe of the Eastern Region, Igbo Leader of the NCNC; Obafemi Awolowo of the Western Region, Yoruba Leader of the Action Group (AG); and Ahmadu Bello of the Northern Region, Fulani Leader of the NPC, all carved out their political careers totally or largely at the regional level. Throughout his political career Mbadiwe's focus was always at the national level. Truly, it has been stated that Mbadiwe was one of the founding fathers of the Nigerian State. Nonetheless, Mbadiwe's ambition for himself to lead Nigeria and for his nation to set it on the path to greatness faced insuperable difficulties. In a country of widespread poverty, high illiteracy, and a grossly underdeveloped private sector, there were fierce ethnic and regional conflicts for the control of governments and resources, leading to massive corruption and serious instability. This in turn led to prolonged military rule twenty years in Mbadiwe's lifetime which was often more corrupt and repressive than civilian rule, and was bitterly deprecated by Mbadiwe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a condensed body of thought, and each paragraph holds body of thought/idea that involved some meditation. Richard, through his work, shows he is a rare breed, an unorthodox thinker who has ruffled the self-satisfied colonial and post-colonial establishment that once held his thoughts captive. The text is a tour de force setting the records straight with historicizing analysis about one of the major issues that purport to define who we are and continue to do so now, illuminating the biggest, most important challenge we face in our time. The text is a magisterial work with impeccable and intelligible argued positions and a benchmark for nation-building. It defends with lapidary certitude the proposition that nation-building is not something that is given to someone by another; rather, it is something that can only be acquired by ones self through self-discovery.

Book excerpt: I sat quietly with rapt attention as I listened to the eloquent oration of my foster father, the first Minister of Social Welfare in the first republic and one-time Apesin of Lagosthe chieftaincy title he upheld till his death. He was late Chief J.M. Johnsona name that had known the ocean and beheld the sea. If there are other ways to define a gentleman beyond the sphere of letters of the alphabet, that man was a-man-among-thousands, Chief JMJ, as he was fondly called, would have earned more appellations in diverse regards but for death.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Africa's former colonial masters, including Great Britain; France, Portugal and Spain, trained members and leaders of the various colonial Armed Forces to be politically non-partisan. Yet, the modern-day Armed Forces on the continent, made up of the Army, Police, Air Force and Navy, have become so politicized that many countries in Africa are today ruled or have already been ruled by military dictators through coups d'etat, occasionally for good reasons as the book points out. This book traces the historical-cum-political evolution of these events, and what bodes for Africa, where the unending military incursions into partisan politics are concerned.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays collected in this volume are, by the depth of their analysis and the breath of their vision, indeed No Trifling Matter. They are a chronicle of the events in contemporary Cameroonian society, especially as concerns the conduct of public affairs therein. Over and above its relevance for our own time, this chronicle will, in the decades that lie ahead, serve as a rich source of information, opinion and comment which future generations, anxious to understand the making of an era whose impact, positive or negative, is destined to survive long after the longest-living of its principal actors and actresses shall have disappeared from the face of the Earth, will find a great benefit. Rotcod Gobata has, through these essays, lit and placed on a pedestal, a candle whose flame shall never die and whose glow shall serve as a beacon to guide and to inspire generations yet unborn.
