  • Historical Dynamics of Ọjị Ezinihitte Cultural Festival in Igboland, Nigeria
    67 International Journal of Modern Anthropology Int. J. Mod. Anthrop. 2020. Vol. 2, Issue 13, pp: 67 - 98 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/ijma.v2i13.2 Available online at: www.ata.org.tn & https://www.ajol.info/index.php/ijma Research Article Historical dynamics of Ọjị Ezinihitte cultural festival in Igboland, Nigeria Akachi Odoemene Department of History and International Studies, Federal University Otuoke, Bayelsa State, Nigeria E-mail: [email protected] (Received 6 January 2020; Accepted 16 May 2020; Published 6 June 2020) Abstract - Ọjị (kola nut) is indispensable in traditional life of the Igbo of Nigeria. It plays an intrinsic role in almost all segments of the people‟s cultural life. In the Ọjị Ezinihitte festivity the „kola tradition‟ is meaningfully and elaborately celebrated. This article examines the importance of Ọjị within the context of Ezinihitte socio-cultural heritage, and equally accounts for continuity and change within it. An eclectic framework in data collection was utilized for this research. This involved the use of key-informant interviews, direct observation as well as extant textual sources (both published and un-published), including archival documents, for the purposes of the study. In terms of analysis, the study utilized the qualitative analytical approach. This was employed towards ensuring that the three basic purposes of this study – exploration, description and explanation – are well articulated and attained. The paper provided background for a proper understanding of the „sacred origin‟ of the Ọjị festive celebration. Through a vivid account of the festival‟s processes and rituals, it achieved a reconstruction of the festivity‟s origins and evolutionary trajectories and argues the festival as reflecting the people‟s spirit of fraternity and conviviality.

It is argued that ethnicity is not necessarily incompatible with nationalism and nation-building. Ethnicity and nationalism both play a role in nation-state formation. They are each functional to political stability and, therefore, to civil peace and to the ability of individual Nigerians to pursue their non-political goals. Ethnicity is functional to political stability because it provides the basis for political socialization and for popular allegiance to political actors. It provides the framework within which patronage is institutionalized and related to traditional forms of welfare within a state which is itself unable to provide such benefits to its subjects.

  • Of Anthony Obinna to Mormonism: Elective Affinities, Socio-Economic Factors, and Religious Change in Postcolonial Southeastern Nigeria
    religions Article The “Conversion” of Anthony Obinna to Mormonism: Elective Affinities, Socio-Economic Factors, and Religious Change in Postcolonial Southeastern Nigeria David Dmitri Hurlbut Department of History, Boston University, Boston, MA 02215, USA; [email protected] Received: 26 May 2020; Accepted: 10 July 2020; Published: 15 July 2020 Abstract: This article analyzes the “conversion” of Anthony Uzodimma Obinna, an Igbo schoolteacher from the town of Aboh Mbaise in Imo State, and his extended family to Mormonism in southeastern Nigeria between the 1960s and the 1980s, from a historical perspective. I argue that the transition of Anthony Obinna and his family away from Catholicism to Mormonism can be explained by both the elective affinities that existed between Mormonism and indigenous Igbo culture, and socio-economic factors as well. This article bases its conclusions on a close reading of oral histories, personal papers, and correspondence housed at the LDS Church History Library in Salt Lake City, Utah and L. Tom Perry Special Collections at Harold B. Lee Library, Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah. Keywords: Mormonism; The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints; Anthony Obinna; religious conversion; southeastern Nigeria 1. Introduction: The Official Story of Anthony Obinna This article analyzes the “conversion” of Anthony Uzodimma Obinna, an Igbo schoolteacher from the town of Aboh Mbaise in Imo State in the southeastern part of Nigeria, and his extended family to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) between the 1960s and the 1980s.1 Offering a social explanation of religious change that complicates the official narratives of Anthony Obinna’s “conversion,” I argue that the movement of Anthony Obinna and his family away from Catholicism to Mormonism can be explained by both the elective affinities that existed between Mormonism and indigenous Igbo culture, and socio-economic factors as well.

  • Statistical Prediction of Gully Erosion Development on the Coastal Plain Sands of the South Eastern Nigeria
    Nigerian Journal of Technology, Vol. 24, No. 2, September 2005 Nwakwasi and Tee 59 STATISTICAL PREDICTION OF GULLY EROSION DEVELOPMENT ON THE COASTAL PLAIN SANDS OF THE SOUTH EASTERN NIGERIA NWAKWASI, N.L., and TEE, D.P. Department of Civil Engineering, Federal University of Technology, Owerri, Nigeria ABSTRACT A statistical model for predicting gully initiation was developed using variables from 20 randomly selected sites. The random samples gave 10 gully sites and 10 non-gully sites. In all, 12 variables were identified but using students t-tests approach, only four variables contributed to gully development. These four variables include Maximum slope, Maximum slope length, Microrelief amplitude and percentage coarse sand. The four variables were combined through factor analysis and statistical manipulations to form Linear Discriminant Function (LDF). Three functions were obtained by combining the variables in three different ways. An application of the three functions to the field situation identified function 1,1 as a very comfortable prediction. When Yl was used to classify the various sites using the variables obtained from the field, a 25% wrong classification was obtained. This value was quite low when compared with the other two functions whose wrong classification ranged from 35% and above. It was observed from the study that when Yl is less than 30, it indicated little or no gully erosion threat. INTRODUCTION spatial distribution of rainfall as induced gully Today, in our country Nigeria, erosion menace formation in most of our towns and express the has become all object of discussion and a major need to adopt good planning and policy ecological problem facing the nation.

Federal University of Technology Owerri, Imo State [email protected] ABSTRACT: Medicinal plants are those plants that are used (parts, extract etc) in treating and preventing specific ailments and diseases that affect human beings. Hence the important role of medicinal plants in health care delivery (services) cannot be over emphasized. This research is on the identification and traditional uses of some medicinal plants in Ezinihitte Mbaise Local Government Area, furthermore the traditional use of medicinal plants for preventive and curative purposes among people of Ezinihitte Mbaise Local Government Area are handed down to the people from generation to generation and have become paramount in almost every household. To this extent several species of medicinal plants such as Gongronema latifolia, Asmina triloba, Aspilia africana, Azadirachta indica, citrus aurantifolia, etc were identified to be naturally distributed in all the autonomous communities in Ezinihitte Mbaise Local Area. Most plant parts (extract) identified eg.( bark root, seeds, fruit, leaf) serve as major source of active ingredient and products of secondary metabolites e.g alkaloid, terpenoids etc used in curing diseases, production of drugs as well as in maintaining good health by both the traditional and orthodox medical practitioners.

    COMMENTS FROM BENEFICIARIES OF OSSAP- - Ibeh Anthony C (Beneficiary, Small Town Water Scheme, Obokwu, Ezinihitte Mbaise LGA) MDGs CGS PROJECTS AND PROGRAMMES 4. We normally get water from a stream and a borehole from the town hall but now with the help of the MDGs we have clean drinkable water close to us and we have people from other communities come to get water too. 1. When we came into the communities as MDGs Technical Assistants, we - Livinus Iwuanyanwu (Beneficiary, Motorised Borehole, Umuezegwu, Ihitte Uboma LGA) established some institutional structures like the LGA committee and LGA technical team. The technical team went through the communities to know 5. Before MDGs built this motorized borehole, we used to go to a stream called their felt needs and thereafter raised a proposal to address those needs. During Nkwaf which is three and a half miles away and also a stream called Ezeahar one implementation, they are also involved in the monitoring and supervision of and half miles away. We also use the Oyibo stream which moves with the flood projects until they become a reality. The communities are happy with the MDGs and the water is not drinkable. It is not good for human consumption because because this is the first time any government agency is visiting them. of the things people throw into the water. Now, the MDGs have provided us with - Leonard C. Onyewu (MDGs Technical Assistant, Onuimo LGA) clean and potable water that is good for human consumption. We are grateful to the MDGs for this provision. 2. All the health centres have been fully utilized by the community people.
