Download or read book The Tragedy of a Value System in Nigeria written by Bedford N. Umez and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this compelling work, Bedford Umez analyzes the fundamental problems affecting Nigeria's development, offering a new perspective for understanding and overcoming them. He begins with a critique of several long-standing explanations for these problems, which include Nigeria's colonial legacy, its corrupt leadership, and the general lack of democratic perspectives. While these have undoubtedly contributed to Nigeria's current situation, Umez persuasively argues that current development problems are fundamentally linked to the prevailing value system that ultimately structures the socioeconomic and political spheres in Nigeria. The book ends with a number of concrete policy prescriptions and provides hope that development can improve in the future. Articulate and insightful, this work is an indispensable resource for future African leaders as well as scholars interested in African history and development.

Book Synopsis Nigerian Politics and Corruption by : Kyrian Chukwuemeka Echekwu
Download or read book Nigerian Politics and Corruption written by Kyrian Chukwuemeka Echekwu and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2017-06-02 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corruption is alive and well in Nigeria—and it must be eliminated. Moreover, the Nigerian church can no longer watch it go unchecked. Though conscious of his limitations as a priest and theologian, the author takes an in-depth look at how corruption has taken hold of Nigeria and its people in this scholarly work. He challenges the church as a socio-moral actor and the civil authorities that govern Nigeria, arguing that the nation will collapse if corruption continues. He notes that even though the Nigerian people have lashed out against corruption, it has only gotten worse—either because morality has been relegated to the background or not enough has been done to inculcate morality into Nigeria’s politics. The author employs a holistic approach in examining issues such as: bishops and their vision of Nigeria vis-à-vis Nigerian politics; democracy and the power equation among the various arms of government; principal biases that characterize Nigerian politics; and class affiliation and its impact in Nigerian politics. Find out how corruption is ruining Nigeria, and discover how the church and government can work together to fix the problem in Nigerian Politics and Corruption.
Book Synopsis The Political Constraints on Nigerian Economic Development Since the Independence by : Cajetan Iwunze
Download or read book The Political Constraints on Nigerian Economic Development Since the Independence written by Cajetan Iwunze and published by Strategic Book Publishing. This book was released on 2013-02 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since gaining its independence in 1960, Nigeria has never really existed as a unified nation, but rather as scattered tribal sects that often fail to coexist with one another peacefully. This uneasy alliance has led to civil war in the past, and is responsible for the continuing conflict between Muslims and Christians that exists in Nigeria today. Because of these deeply embedded political constraints, Nigeria has also fallen behind in terms of economic development. However Nigeria is not a nation without resources. Many of Nigeria's conflicts are centered around oil. As it stands currently, Nigeria's wealth is concentrated in the hands of the ruling elite and little has been done to improve the situation of the poorest segments of the population. But the prolonged and dismal situation in the Nigerian economy that serves as the inspiration behind The Political Constraints on Nigerian Economic Development Since the Independence is not without a potential solution. Author Cajetan Iwunze intended this book as more than just a statement against the tribal nationalism and the economic bandits that continue to loot the country. It also aims to suggest that if there is a solution, it lies in reforming the country's institutions so that Nigeria's oil wealth can be used for the benefit of everyone. Although he currently lives in the UK, Cajetan Iwunze was born in eastern Nigeria. Mr. Iwunze is an international human rights campaigner, writer and teacher who serves as the Director of Professional Tutors Ltd. and the CEO of Dyswrite Ltd.

Book Synopsis A Critical Study of Bini and Yoruba Value Systems of Nigeria in Change by : Emmanuel D. Babatunde
Download or read book A Critical Study of Bini and Yoruba Value Systems of Nigeria in Change written by Emmanuel D. Babatunde and published by Edwin Mellen Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study makes the point that foreigners who have come in contact with Africans, whether as missionary, teacher, colonial administrator, or trader have often underestimated the extent to which the African cultural ethos rules the African mind. Modernizing efforts in Africa are based on assumptions which seek rapid transformations into the ways of another cultural ethos. These efforts, which abound in religious, developmental and political practices, have often met with difficulties. An examination into the content, structure and symbolic notions of the African ethos should unearth those aspects which are in conflict with, and those which are in favour of modernizing tendencies. This orientation sheds light on the problems that inhibit stability and development in Africa.
Book Synopsis The Politicization of Ethnicity as Source of Conflict by : Ademola Adediji
Download or read book The Politicization of Ethnicity as Source of Conflict written by Ademola Adediji and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-11 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In view of the explosion of violent conflicts in many parts of the world and the hasty, but prevailing, assumption that ethnicity is the source of these conflicts, this book is encompassed to highlight, describe and examine how ethnicity is politicized in many of these current conflicts. By deploying the instrumentalist approach and the theory of identity and difference in ethnicity, the author identifies the actors involved and depicts how religion is exploited as an instrument of division by reflecting it on the Nigerian situation, exploring the examples of the Jos conflicts and the Warri Crisis within a twenty years period, 1990 to 2010.

Download or read book Africa Now! written by Adebusuyi Adeniran and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-20 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents relevant and timely endogenous procedures for addressing the challenge of transforming ideas into sustainable opportunities in Africa. It explores how Africa could be understood in the context of emerging global realities, providing alternative frameworks that will not just be participatory in conception and practice, but equally show a contextual workability for the varying aspects of the developmental enterprise in Africa. Despite having alternative and less cumbersome sources of funding, with commendable economic growth indices, and several economies among the fastest growing globally, African countries have been unable to transmute related opportunities into sustainable human development outcomes for majority of its citizenry. Over four rich sections the authors cover subjects ranging from environment and natural resource management, to governance, economy and sustainable development. The book continues with a section on Education and Human Development and a case study in transnationalism. The final section discusses crime, conflict and regional dynamics, including highly disputed topics such as forced migration and sex trade. This indispensable resource will be of great use to students and researches globally in fields such as sociology, anthropology, environmental studies, politics and economics with a focus on contemporary Africa, as well as to policy planners and human rights activists invested in the future development of Africa.
