Many people contributed towards the completion of this study but time and space would not allow me to mention them all. However, attempt is made here to acknowledge some that could be recollected. First, my unquantifiable thanks go to my Major Supervisor, Professor Abdulkadir Adamu, (Director, Arewa House, Centre for Historical Documentation and Research, Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria) for his scholarly guidance, suggestions and above all promptness in the correction of my draft chapters. I also remain appreciative of the contributions of the co- supervisor, Dr. John Agi for bringing his scholarly thoroughness to bear on this research. Special thanks go to Professor Muhammadu Mustapha Gwadabe, the Post Graduate Coordinator of the Department for injecting into us, the iron determination to round up our research within the stipulated period of two years. To Dr. Muhammad Sani Umar, for inculcating into us, the advanced and puzzling spirit of historical research! Other Lecturers in the Department whose ideas helped in this study include, but not limited to, Professors Sule Bello, Mahmoud Hamman, Sule Muhammad, Enock Oyedele, Dr. Idris Jimada,Dr. Kabiru Chafe, and Dr. Usman Ladan. The contributions of Malam Sarki Musa, Danjuma Garba ,Salisu Zubairu, Nura Isa and Rabiu Sulaiman were equally helpful. To my accommodative course mates at the Department of History, ABU, Zaria, I thank you for your patience throughout the period of our course work. vi I also appreciate the tireless efforts of the staff of NHRS, Zaria, Arewa House, CEDDERT, Libraries of Gombe State University, Gombe State House of Assembly, and Department of Economics, ABU-Zaria. I specially thank Alhaji Gidado, the Statistician-General of Gombe State for giving me both soft and hard copies of economic statistics on Gombe State. I remain grateful to Dr. George Kwanashie for giving me more than an hour of his precious time to discuss some salient conceptual issues on industrial development.

I also thank, Malam Gumel of the Ministry of Trade and Industry, Bauchi State for his assistance. I remain appreciative to Alhaji Abdulkadir Abubakar (Yeriman Gombe) for directing me to some informants and to CYD Discussion Forum for introducing me to some of the elites in Gombe, some of whom I was opportuned to interview. This section would necessarily be incomplete without appreciating the Management of Federal University Kashere under the stewardship of Professor Muhammad Kabir Faruk for not allowing me to resume work after the completion of my course work. The ample time provided by this opportunity has indeed enabled me concentrate fully on my research. The deanery support and encouragement received from Professor Saleh Abdu Kwami made this study a reality. Finally, I thank my brother, Malam Abubakar Usman Kwami (Yaya Abbakar) and my research assistants: Habibu, Musa, Faruk, and Ubaida for their numerous contributions. vii PREFACE This dissertation titled “A History of Industrial Development in Gombe State, 1974- 2011 is a modest but pioneering study of the genesis, trends, challenges and impact of the establishment of industries and the nature of their capacity utilization in Gombe State. The work is divided into eight (8) chapters. The first chapter is a general introduction to the study. It examines among other things, the research problem, scope and limitations as well as the aims and objectives of the study. It also states the theoretical framework of the study which is anchored around the political economy perspectives. The chapter clarifies the concepts of industrialization, Manufacturing, industry, enterprise, and industrial development. It thereafter gives a synopsis on the direction of the study. Chapter two focuses attention to some background information about Gombe State. It describes the geography, demography and the economy of the study area as a necessary background for understanding the object of this study- Industrial development. Chapter three creates a broader context for locating the discourse on industrial development in Gombe State. It does that by examining „efforts‟ at industrial developments in the late colonial and early independence periods in Northern Nigeria. Chapter four examines industrial development under the old Bauchi State. It focuses on the formulation of industrial policy and the establishment of institutions in the industrial sector. It finally assesses the relocation of industries from Gombe to Bauchi, a development which had among other things triggered a movement which culminated into the creation of Gombe State in 1996. viii Chapter five examines the character and tempo of industrial development in Gombe State by discussing the role of successive administrations in Gombe State in the area of industrial policy formulation, provision of infrastructure and other incentives for industrial development. Using budgets from the available years, the chapter ascertains the extent of the implementation and otherwise of the various industrial projects. Role of the private sector, production, marketing and distribution of manufactured were also discussed. This chapter concludes by a discussion on labour and industrial relations in Gombe State Area. Impact and challenges of industrial development are discussed in chapter six. The chapter examines some impact of industrial development in Gombe State in the areas of politics, economy, socio-cultural and environmental spheres and thereafter argued that the pivot upon which all the challenges in Gombe State is the lack of political will. Chapter Seven shows that, the economy of Nigeria and Gombe State has already been integrated into the world capitalist economy. Therefore, it discusses the global manufacturing environment and the position of Nigeria, and Gombe State in that equation. This provides a context for discussing some prerequisites and strategies for industrialization in Gombe State. Chapter Eight is a general conclusion which summarizes some of the major arguments and findings of the study. ix TABLE OF CONTENTS Title Page - - - - - - - - - - i Declaration - - - - - - - - - - ii Certification - - - - - - - - - - iii Dedication - - - - - - - - - - iv Acknowledgement - - - - - - - - - v Preface- - - - - - - - - - - vii Table of Contents - - - - - - - - - ix Notes on Sources - - - - - - - - - xiv List of Maps - - - - - - - - - - xvii List of Tables - - - - - - - - - - xviii List of Appendices - - - - - - - - - xx Abbreviation - - - - - - - - - - xxi Abstract - - - - - - - - - - xxiv CHAPTER ONE: INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY 1.0– Introduction - - - - - - - - - 1 1.1 - Statement of the Research Problem - - - - - - 2 1.2 - Scope and Limitations of the Study - - - - - - 2 1.3 - Objectives of the Study - - - - - - - - 3 1.4 -Literature Review - - - - - - - - 5 1.5 -Justification for the Study - - - - - - - 17 1.6 -Methodology of the Study - - - - - - - 18 1.7 -Theoretical Framework - - - - - - - - 19 1.7.1- Functionalist Theories - - - - - - - 19 1.7.2- Modernization Theories - - - - - - 19 1.7.3- Political Economy Perspectives - - - - - 20 1.8 –Definitions of Terms - - - - - - - - 24 1.8.1- Industrialization - - - - - - - - 24 1.8.2- Manufacturing - - - - -

  • A Report on the Mapping Study of Peace & Security Engagement In
    A Report on the Mapping Study of Peace & Security Engagement in African Tertiary Institutions Written by Funmi E. Vogt This project was funded through the support of the Carnegie Corporation About the African Leadership Centre In July 2008, King’s College London through the Conflict, Security and Development group (CSDG), established the African Leadership Centre (ALC). In June 2010, the ALC was officially launched in Nairobi, Kenya, as a joint initiative of King’s College London and the University of Nairobi. The ALC aims to build the next generation of scholars and analysts on peace, security and development. The idea of an African Leadership Centre was conceived to generate innovative ways to address some of the challenges faced on the African continent, by a new generation of “home‐grown” talent. The ALC provides mentoring to the next generation of African leaders and facilitates their participation in national, regional and international efforts to achieve transformative change in Africa, and is guided by the following principles: a) To foster African‐led ideas and processes of change b) To encourage diversity in terms of gender, region, class and beliefs c) To provide the right environment for independent thinking d) Recognition of youth agency e) Pursuit of excellence f) Integrity The African Leadership Centre mentors young Africans with the potential to lead innovative change in their communities, countries and across the continent. The Centre links academia and the real world of policy and practice, and aims to build a network of people who are committed to the issue of Peace and Security on the continent of Africa.

BACHAMA YUSUF, A. LAWAL AHMED, M. LAWAL KOLA AND A. SULEIMAN ARABI (Received 22 May 2014; Revision Accepted 28 May 2014) ABSTRACT A ground scintillometric survey was carried out in the south - western part of the Kerri - Kerri Formation to identify areas of more prominent radioactive anomalies for further detailed spectrometric investigation. The total count rates recorded were generally higher in the south – western part of the study area. Analysis of the reduced data reveals the threshold activity value for the study area is 27.5 cps. Activities of more than twice the mode that will be of significance in terms of mineralization is 40 cps observed in the area north east of Tumu village with occurrence of granitic feldspar. The cosmic ray contribution to the ground activity measured in the field and used for the background correction is 4 cps. Detailed ground spectrometric investigation should be carried out in the area north – east of Tumu village to determine the radiometric mineralization potentials of the area and confirm if the radiation is due to the rocks or soil of the area. KEYWORDS: Scintillometric, Total count rates, Background correction, Threshold activity, Mineralization.

Dean of the Graauate Co 11 ege . ii PREFACE This study traces the history of the Nigerian broadcasting industry from the pre-colonial period to the present condition. The author's primary objective is to provide a description and appraisal of the Nigerian broadcasting for readers in both Nigeria and the United States. The study describes various aspects of the industry 1 s opera­ tion, organizational structure, and the roles it plays in furthering the educational, political, economic and social interests of the Nigerian Society. Much of the information is based on the author 1 s personal seven years' experience as a radio journalist with the Nigerian Broadcasting Corporation from 1968 to 1975 and from other sources such as newspaper articles, texts, lectures and seminars. The conviction that such research should be done was increased when American friends, as we11 as Nigerians, pointed out that systematic and critical description of broadcasting in Nigeria would be interesting to them. The author expresses sincere thanks to his major adviser, Dr. Rey Barnes for his guidance throughout the study. My gratitude also is expressed to Dr. William R. Steng and Dr. Walter J. Ward, committee members, for their suggestions on preparing the final manuscript.

  • Governor Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko of Sokoto State, Nigeria
    Spotlight on the achievements of Governor Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko of Sokoto State, Nigeria Governor Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko People's Governor and Silent Achiever November/December 2014 1 Spotlight on the achievements of Governor Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko of Sokoto State, Nigeria The material for the Spotlight was prepared by Sokoto Liberal Democrats Media Foundation (SOLID) with input from Africa Link. [email protected] People’s Governor and Silent Achiever He has a mission! A mission to impro- ve the lot of the people of Sokoto State, and he is “committed to this mission to the best of my ability” he told Africa Link recently. To those who see his per- formance as exemplary, and feel he has done more than they ever bargained for he has this to say: “If they feel I have done more than my best, I still belie- ve I’m doing what is expected of me to truly and sincerely serve my people wit- hout any limit, and to improve on their standard of living.” He has faithfully been on the right path. No wonder his people support him wholeheartedly in his mission describing him to Africa Link as the “people’s governor, a silent achiever” and his administration as a “welfare government.” Since Governor Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko ascended the mantle of power in Sokoto State in May 2007 he has remained committed to the improvement of the lot of the State in all its ramifications. He has identified projects relevant to the fulfilment of those electoral promises he made to the people of the state Former president of Nigeria, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo laying the foundation of the second phase extension of and has been quietly and successfully executing them.
