Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The name Nigeria was coined in Lokoja by Flora Shaw, the future wife of Baron Lugard, a British colonial administrator, while gazing out at the river Niger. So, British colonialism created Nigeria as a country, joining diverse peoples and regions in an artificial political entity along the Niger River. The territory known today as Nigeria is a very large country of multi-ethnic groups of about four hundred. The land mass is large enough to accommodate France, Belgium and Italy. The name Nigeria is derived from the River Niger which traverses the country from the North to the South. Nigeria is located on the coast of Western Africa. It has an area of 356,669 square miles (923,768 square km). At its greatest expanse, it measures about 1,200 kilometres (about 750 mi) from East to West and about 1,050 kilometres (about 650 mi) from North to South. It is bordered to the north by Niger, the east by Chad and Cameroon, the south by the Gulf of Guinea, and to the west by Benin. Niger River and the Benue, are its largest tributary, are the principal rivers in the country. The area that is now Nigeria was home to ethnically based kingdoms and tribal communities before it became a European colony. In spite of European contact that began in the 16th century, these kingdoms and communities maintains their autonomy until the 19th century. Federal Republic of Nigeria is a constitutional Federal Republic comprising 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory in Abuja. The principal groups in the Northern part are Hausa, Fulani, Kanuri, and Nupe. Other minority tribes also inhabits the Middle belt area, these include the Jukun, the Chamba and the Bata. In the region north of the upper Benue valley various ethnic groups such as Fali, Gabun, Gude, Gudu, Higi, Hona Mbula, Mumuye and Tika also inhabits the area. In the Southwest we have the Yoruba, another principal ethnic group and in the Southeast we have the Igbo people which form the third principal ethnic group. In the South-south we have the group of minorities such as Annang, Efik, Ibibio, Ijaw, Itsekiri, Isoko Uhrobo and Ukwiani. The entire ethnic group in Nigeria is over 500, parts of these are listed in appropriate section of this book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journey Of A Black Man Introduction The novel Journey Of A Black Man is a book written to tell the story of the origin of the a black man, according to the oral narration by our ancestors (Ijebu) people who are one of the prominent tribes in Nigeria. The narration tell us that OLORUN-ELEDUMARE (God Almighty) create the earth in the location whichscientist indentifi ed as Atlantis that eventually sink and form the Atlantic ocean, and part of the remnant ofthe Atlantis which we call Ife in Nigeria. God destroy Atlantis because of the continuous disobedience and wickedness of the inhabitants. Eventually, God raise human being through Nuhabi (Noah) after God had flood the earth and Nuhabi's descendants from Josepha, Ham and Sham, of which our ancestors originate from Ham and Shem. They settled in the lower part of the river Nile delta and are the ruler of Egypt as the Pharaoh. The Yoruba people become the prominent tribe after God separate the whole of Adamah's (Adam's) descendants and make them to scatter over the earth. However, the tribal wars, conflicts over lands and religions (Idols worshipping) made Egypt to become difficult to be governed, so the most recognized Yoruba leader called Oduduwa who is a Priest-King decide to migrate back to Atlantis called Ife, which they had known to be the origin of creation. He moved with his son Oranyan to Ife and the Yoruba people dwell in the land in the Western Nigeria to other part of West Africa. Some of the Yoruba people remaining in Egypt rule over the place and when Abraham sojourn to Egypt, he was given a Yoruba ruler's daughter Ewaduni as one of his concubines so as to allow peaceful co-existence between the Yoruba and his followers. Then the descendants of Ewaduni become the Jebu people that own Jebusite in present Middle East, they are strong warriors and when the Israelites return from Egypt back to the land of Cannan, the Benjamites and the descendants of Joseph settled down among the Jebusite as cousin. But eventually, because of confl icts over land King David defeat the Jebusites and change the name of the city to Jerusalem. So the Jebus descendants left and settle down in Sudan and Egypt. However, a Pharaoh call Alare(Alara/Arunah) who is a Jebu married a Sheba Kings daughter and their daughter became the ruler of Sheba whose name is Biliquis Sungbo(the Queen of Sheba in the present Ethiopia). Eventually, the Queen of Sheba met with King Solomon and their son Magrigbaki made himself King by parading himself with the Royal crown and the Royal robe. Th is act was considered as a coup-de tact, but Queen of Sheba in order to safe his son's life made him the King and followed the migration of Alare's son Olu-Iwa out of the Southern Sudan to Atlantis city of Ife in Ife where the Yoruba ancestors originate and later to the present Ijebu-Ode in Nigeria. Th en a Jebu Prince call Ogboronganda, whose mother was a granddaughter of Alare became the most prominent leader in Egypt as a Pharaoh Elect, he lead and defeat the notorious Alexander the Great, the King of Macedonia. But because of continues fights and all the Princes want to become the Pharaoh, he migrate to Ijebu-Ode. White people and slave trade in southern Nigeria stories.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Oluwatoyin Oduntan offers a critical intervention in the scholarly fields of Nigerian, and West African history, as well as towards understanding the intellectual ideas by which modern African society was formed, and how it functions. The book traces the shifting dynamics between various segments of the African elite by critically analyzing existing historical accounts, traditions and archival documents. First, it explores the lost world of native intellectual thoughts as the perspective through which Africans experienced the colonial encounter. It thereby makes Africans central to contemporary debates about the meanings and legitimacy of colonial empires, and about the African cultural experience. It shows that the resettlement of liberated and Westernized Africans in Abeokuta and after them, European missionaries, merchants and colonial agents from the 1840s, did not dismantle preexisting power structures and social relations. Rather, educated Africans and Europeans entered into and added their voices to ongoing processes of defining culture and power. By rendering a continuing narrative of change and adaptation which connects the pre-colonial to the post-colonial, Power, Culture and Modernity in Nigeria leads Africanist scholarship in new directions to rethink colonial impact and uncover the total creative sites of changes by which African societies were formed.
