  • Widowhood in Esanland
    IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 25, Issue 5, Series. 1 (May. 2020) 06-17 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Widowhood in Esanland Thomas Oseyi Ebhomienlen Corresponding Author: Thomas Oseyi Ebhomienlen ABSTRACT Biblical accounts reveal that the office of the Deacon was created for the purpose of handling the benevolence ministry in the New Testament Church (Acts 6:1 - 3). By benevolent ministry we mean a deliberate action geared towards a generous care for the widow within a giving community. This office, over time, changed to “serving table” which in the present day Church has assumed diverse nomenclature: Mass, Thanksgiving, Eucharist, Fellowship Meal and Holy Communion, to mention a few. Today, the act of deliberate generous cares for the widow within the Church, particularly the Anglican Communion in Esanland, has been said to be of low priority, far from the New Testament‟s level. This study articulates the benevolent ministry of deliberate love and care for widows by Jesus Christ and his early apostles. This was aimed at re-enacting the New Testament model of pastoral love and care. The research examined the plight of widows among the people of Esan. Particular attention was given to Ihumudumu and Ujoelen –Ekpoma, both in Esan West Local Government Area; Uromi in Esan-North-East; Ubiaja in Esan South East and Amahor in Igueben Local Government Areas, all in Edo State. Historical, phenomenological and descriptive methods were adopted for this study. Two hundred respondents were randomly selected within the Local Government Areas in Esanland.

  • Domain Without Subjects Traditional Rulers in Post-Colonial Africa
    Taiwan Journal of Democracy, Volume 13, No. 2: 31-54 Domain without Subjects Traditional Rulers in Post-Colonial Africa Oscar Edoror Ubhenin Abstract The domain of traditional rulers in pre-colonial Africa was the state, defined by either centralization or fragmentation. The course of traditional rulers in Africa was altered by colonialism, thereby shifting their prerogative to the nonstate domain. Their return in post-colonial Africa has coincided with their quest for constitutional “space of power.” In effect, traditional rulers are excluded from modern state governance and economic development. They have remained without subjects in post-colonial Africa. Thus, the fundamental question: How and why did traditional rulers in post-colonial Africa lose their grip over their subjects? In explaining the loss of traditional rulers’ grip over subjects in their domains, this essay refers to oral tradition and published literature, including official government documents. Empirical evidence is drawn from Nigeria and other parts of Africa. Keywords: African politics, chiefs and kings, post-colonialism, traditional domain. During the era of pre-colonialism, African chiefs and kings (also called traditional rulers) operated in the domain of the state, characterized by either centralization or fragmentation. This characterization refers to the variations in political cum administrative institutions along the lines of several hundred ethnic groups that populated Africa. “Centralized” or “fragmented” ethnic groups were based on the number of levels of jurisdiction that transcended the local community, “where more jurisdictional levels correspond[ed] to more centralized groups.”1 Traditional rulers in Africa had mechanisms for formulating public policies and engaging public officers who assisted them in development and delivering relevant services to their subjects.

  • Succession Under Esan Customary Law in Nigeria: Grounds for Disinheriting an Heir from Inheriting His Deceased Father’S Estate Under Esan Customary Law
    www.ijird.com August, 2018 Vol 7 Issue 8 ISSN 2278 – 0211 (Online) Succession Under Esan Customary Law in Nigeria: Grounds for Disinheriting an Heir from Inheriting His Deceased Father’s Estate under Esan Customary Law Paul Okhaide Itua Senior Lecturer, Department of Commercial and Industrial Law, Ambrose Alli University, Nigeria Abstract: In Nigeria, there are three main ethnic / tribal groups; these are Hausa - Fulani, Igbo and Yoruba. Apart from these major ethnic groups, there are about 371 (three hundred and seventy-one) other ethnic groups with diverse languages and phonological structures, which are some time noticeable even within the same socio cultural setting. Majority of these ethnic groups share a lot of historical and deep cultural relationship between them as evidence mostly in the application of customary law that regulate their private life on one hand and the relationship that exist between them on the other hand. Apart from these rules of customary law, the common law and statutory law equally plays a major role in the regulation of these relationships. Some time these rules of customary law are subjected to certain test as prescribed by the common law and the statute in other to determine their validity and applicability. These regulatory mechanisms, also apply to the people that constitute Esan ethnic group. They presently occupy Edo Central Senatorial District consisting of five local government areas in Edo State of Nigeria. Historically they share cultural relationship with the Edos in the area of customary law, however with some noticeable differences in its application in certain areas. One of such area is succession.

The period between 2004 and 2006 has recorded a ruinous prebendal political conflict in the South-Eastern geo-political zone of Nigeria. The conflict, which involved an erstwhile Governor of Anambra State, Dr. Chris Ngige and a political chieftain in the state, Chief Chris Uba, occurred with attendant violence. However, empirical studies on the role played by the press in this type of conflict situation are faint in political communication literature. This study therefore was conducted to investigate how selected newspapers reported the Ngige and Uba prebendal political conflict in South-Eastern Nigeria between 2004 and 2006. Four Nigerian national newspapers were chosen for the study, namely: Daily Champion, Daily Trust, Nigerian Tribune and The Guardian. Purposive sampling was used to select 84 journalistic genres out of 72 editions of the newspapers.

  • Spatial Distributions of Aquifer Hydraulic Properties from Pumping Test Data in Anambra State, Southeastern Nigeria
    American Journal of Geophysics, Geochemistry and Geosystems Vol. 5, No. 4, 2019, pp. 119-128 http://www.aiscience.org/journal/aj3g ISSN: 2381-7143 (Print); ISSN: 2381-7151 (Online) Spatial Distributions of Aquifer Hydraulic Properties from Pumping Test Data in Anambra State, Southeastern Nigeria Christopher Chukwudi Ezeh1, Austin Chukwuemeka Okonkwo1, *, Emeka Udeze2 1Department of Geology and Mining, Enugu State University of Science and Technology, Enugu, Nigeria 2Anambra State Rural Water and Sanitation Agency (ANARUWASA), Awka, Nigeria Abstract Spatial distributions of aquifer hydraulic properties were carried out from direct pumping test data in Anambra State, Southeastern Nigeria. The study area lies within longitudes 06° 38I and 007° 15IE and latitudes 05°42I and 006°45IN within an area extent of about 4844sqkm (1870sqmi), underlain by four main geological formations. Pump testing was carried out in over one hundred (100) locations in the study area. The single-well test approach was used, employing the constant discharge and recovery methods. The Cooper-Jacob’s straight-line method was used to analyze the pump test results. This enabled the computing of the aquifer hydraulic properties. Correlated borehole logs show total depth range of 80meters to 250meters, with lithologic sequence of top sandy clay – medium to coarse grained sand – clay/shale – sand/sandstone, with the medium to coarse grained sand thickly underlying the central part of the study area. Static water level ranges from 100meters to 260meters at the central part and 10meters to 90meters at the adjoining areas. Aquifer transmissivity values range from 5m2/day to 80m2/day, indicating variable transmissivity potentials, while hydraulic conductivity values range from 0.5m/day to 6.0m/day.

Father Vincent NWOSU ABSTRACT Recent studies in African church historiography have increasingly shown that the generally acknowledged successful planting of Christian Churches in parts of Africa, especially the East and West, from the nineteenth century was not entirely the work of foreign missionaries alone. Africans themselves participated actively in p la n tin g , sustaining and propagating the faith. These Africans can clearly be grouped into two: first, those who were ordained ministers of the church, and secondly, the lay members.

  • Weekly Updates on the #Endsars Judicial Panels of Inquiry - No
    Weekly Updates on the #EndSARS Judicial Panels of Inquiry - No. 4 16th - 21st November 2020 With the establishment of State Judicial Panels of Inquiry in response to one of the demands of the #EndSARS protest, Yiaga Africa deployed monitors to the FCT and 27 of the 29 States with Panels currently established. While not all states have established Panels and some states are more active than others in sitting and responding to petitions, it is important the Government is seen to be sincere in its commitment to ensuring justice for victims of police brutality and extra-judicial killings through its actions and media engagements. Nigerians deserve a process that inspires confidence in the Government’s commitment to justice for victims, thus dismissive statements and actions that seem to suppress the voice of citizens must not occur as they undermine the work of the Judicial Panels. As the Panels sit and receive petitions, Yiaga Africa, Enough is Enough (EiE) Nigeria and other civic actors will continue to monitor the Panels and follow through this process to provide information to the people and promote accountability. Reports from the Yiaga Africa monitors from their observation of the Judicial Panels of Inquiry revealed: Video Evidence Confirms Lekki Shootings as Panels Receive more Evidence: On Saturday, 21st November 2020, a month after the shooting of peaceful protesters, video 1 evidence presented at the Lagos Judicial Panel of Inquiry confirmed the presence of the military at the toll gate and the shooting of peaceful protesters. This was in addition to the samples of bullets used by the Nigerian Army presented in the previous week.

A key focus of the programme will be to contribute to poverty alleviation through the development and support given to local community development initiatives. The NDSP4 aims to support institutional reforms and capacity building, resulting in Local Gov- ernment and State Authorities increasingly providing infrastructural services, income gener- ating options, sustainable livelihoods development, gender equity and community empow- erment. This will be achieved through offering models of transparency and participation as well as the involvement of Local Governments in funding Micro projects to enhance impact and sustainability.
