She sits atop a geographical location that is devoid of worrisome natural disasters like earthquakes, whirlwinds and seasonal storms that often present obstacles to national growth and development. Regrettably, the country has failed to harness this opportunity for national development. Rather, what we have is a break down and decay of social infrastructure; health services are largely unavailable; education is costly and without recognizable standards; power generation and energy supply is epileptic. Pensioners and civil servants are denied and owed their legitimate payments and dues. For lack of security there is breakdown of law and order in the polity, people are robbed, maimed, kidnapped and killed at will. The country is so rich but the majority of people are poor living on a dollar per day. The basic needs of life are clearly and unfortunately lacking. Notable scholars such as (Asobie, 2008; Onuoha, 2008; Nwankwo, 2008; Mbachu, 2005; Albert, 2003; Jega, 2007) have all acknowledged the above situation. It is against this background that this study sets out to investigate Governance and Human Security in Anambra State , 1990- 2007. To achieve the objective of this study, three research questions were raised. To critically examine the questions, the study anchored analysis on the Responsive Capability analytical framework and adopted the case study approach with data collected through primary and secondary sources. To ensure the reliability and validity of instruments,the technique of content analysis was rigorously and systematically applied. After a detailed review of extant literatuire and analyses of available data,the study made the following findings; first, human insecurity in Anambra between the period under review was and still a consequence of ineffective governance. Second, that this insecurity encompasses poverty and prevalent among children and women. Third, the poor performance of political office holders in Anambra state has led to poor delivery of basic services to the people. vi TABLE OF CONTENT Title Page -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- - i Approval Page -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- ii Dedication -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- iii Acknowledgement -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- iv Abstract -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- v Table of Content -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- vi CHAPTER ONE: INTRODUCTION. 1.1 Statement of problem - - - - - - - 4 1. 2 Objectives of the Study - - - - - - -4 1.3 Significance of the Study - - - - - - -9 1.4 Literature Review - - - - - - - -10 1.5 Theoretical Framework -- - - - - - - 10 1.6 Hypotheses - - - - - - - - - 54 1.7 Method of Data Collection- - - - - - - 56 CHAPTER TWO: HISTORY OF ANAMBRA STATE AND GOVERNANCE 2.1 History of Anambra State - - - - - - 59 2.2 History of Governance in Anambra State - - - - 64 CHAPTER THREE: PUBLIC MANAGEMENT AND GOOD GOVERNANCE /ANAMBRA STATE 3.1 Public Service Delivery in Anambra State - - - - 81 3.1.1 Situation of Children and Women in Anambra State - - 83 3.2 Anambra State and the Environment - - - - 86 vii CHAPTER FOUR: INSECURITY AND POVERTY IN ANAMBRA STATE 4.1 Governance and Insecurity in Anambra State - - - 91 4.2 Poverty Situation in Anambra State - - - - - 97 CHAPTER FIVE: SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION 5.1 Summary and Conclusion - - - - - - -99 BIBLIOGRAPHY- 1 CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1 INTRODUCTION At the inauguration of the country’s civilian administration in May 29th 1999, the expectation was that the end had come for the era of insecurity and the seeming intractable conflicts that characterized the final days of the military regime. It gave hope that a foundation for quicker development had been laid in the country. At the last years of the military regime, the social situation in Nigeria had become very problematic. Infact, the last ten (10) years were specifically turbulent (see Tedheke, 2005; Elaigwu, 2005; Wakili, 2005; Bakoje, 2005 etc). Explaining the reasons for such situation, Mbah (2008: 3) linked it to the failure of the neo-liberal economic policies that become more pungent in the 80s and manifested in unfriendly impact on the people: widespread unemployment, hunger and misery, precarious health conditions and other similar conditions symptomatic of extreme poverty in the society and exposed the spheres of social security to all sorts of crises (see also Obasi, 1989). With the individual means of livelihood and standard of living dropping below tolerable level, conflict increased involving both groups and individuals creating further insecurity to lives and properties. The sustenance of internal conflicts in Nigeria is linked to poverty and that conflicts generate low level of development in the country (Nwanegbo, 2008: 30 – 38). More specific consequences were seen in the impact it had on the capacity of the individual members of the society in providing their basic needs of life (food, clothing, shelter). It affects both the social, political, economic, environmental and cultural conditions. It equally reduces, if not entirely denies the people of their fundamental freedom and basic rights – denies the people access to education, healthcare, opportunities and choices and subjects 2 them to a deep situation of uncertainty (see Nwanegbo 2005; 2006 and 2008). All these which anchor on the security of human persons create a new view and another dimension of problem that calls for inquiry. On the international or external relationship of the country, it impacts in various ways, especially as the unsecured situation scare away foreign investments and creates deeper economic problems, poverty and underdevelopment. The amount of aid, assistance, trade and other forms of relationship dropped, creating more problems of choices and opportunities for the people. The situation was so bad that the former President Chief Olusegun Obasanjo was describing the country repeatedly as a “Pariah Nation”. This same situation also generated pressure in the society as groups in the society conflict on contending opinions and on measures to survive the harsh conditions. Individual pressure also increased with the collapse of the social services and the rate of crime shot up to unimaginable level making yet other people not only vulnerable but to begin to live in the situation of uncertainty. This situation of uncertainty has been linked to the collapse in the governmental system which many scholars have attributed to poor institutionalization of the governmental process and deep seated corruption in the bureaucracy (see Ademolkun and Gboyega, 1979). The situation presented above laid a foundation for the initiation of this study. It is against this

This volume fills in a yawning gap in the compendium of African literary criticism, since Obumselu was such a reticent expositor of his own productivity. —Wole Soyinka Wherever Obumselu’s name was evoked, it was always with uncustomary reverence. The reverence was for his solid scholarship and perspicacious mind; his assured, limpid prose which lent to his pronouncements a kind of magisterial poise; his cool and classical power of exegesis. This compendium of Obumselu’s work is an invaluable contribution to the criticism of African literature. —Femi Osofisan This compendium is a welcome tribute to Ben Obumselu, one of the most widely read, liberally educated, and profoundly cerebral scholars Nigeria has ever produced.

  • The Case of Nigerian Civil War Poetry

While conflictual violence exerts tremendous strains on human relations, literary artists have often had their creative sensibilities fired by such conflicts. The above accounts for the emergence of the war-sired creative enterprise collectively referred to as war literature. These writers have used their art either as mere chronicles of the unfolding drama of blood and death or as interventionist art to preach peace and restoration of human values. Using the Nigerian experience, this paper does an examination of select corpus of poetry, which emanated from the Nigerian civil war experience. It isolates the messages of peace, which went a long way in not only pointing out the evils occasioned by war and conflict but also in suturing the broken ties of humanity while the war lasted. As our societies are becoming increasingly conflictual, our literary endeavours should also assume more social responsibilities in terms of conflict mitigation, prevention and promotion of global peace. This paper therefore envisions a new literary movement i.e.

  • A GOLDEN JUBILEE PUBLICATION, EDITED by CHINUA ACHEBE Terri Ochiagha
    Africa 85 (2) 2015: 191–220 doi:10.1017/S0001972014000990 THERE WAS A COLLEGE: INTRODUCING THE UMUAHIAN: A GOLDEN JUBILEE PUBLICATION, EDITED BY CHINUA ACHEBE Terri Ochiagha Because colonialism was essentially a denial of human worth and dignity, its education programme could not be a model of perfection. And yet the great thing about being human is our ability to face adversity down by refusing to be defined by it, refusing to be no more than its agent or victim. (Achebe 1993) Government College, Umuahia, one of Nigeria’s three leading colonial secondary schools, is known among literary critics around the world for being the alma mater of eight important Nigerian writers: Chinua Achebe, Chike Momah, Elechi Amadi, Chukwuemeka Ike, Christopher Okigbo, Gabriel Okara, Ken Saro- Wiwa and I. N. C. Aniebo. Many are the illustrious Nigerian scientists, intellec- tuals and public leaders who passed through the Umuahia Government College in its prime, and in Nigeria – and to a lesser extent in the former British Cameroons – the name of the school evokes an astounding range of success stories. But Umuahia’s legend as ‘the Eton of the East’ and the primus inter pares of Nigeria’s elite colonial institutions obscures its present reality: nothing remains of its magnificent past but its extensive grounds, landmark buildings, and the glittering roll call of Nigerian dignitaries who once studied within its walls. Upon a cursory search, the inquisitive web surfer is greeted by alarming synopses of the school’s current state and status: ‘Government College, Umuahia in tatters’, ‘Government College, Umuahia still crying for redemption’.

    - 59 - TIE NIGERIAN LIIEFMY 8fillSI W H.lS. ~IEIY* by R.N. EGUOU In a very significant sense, there has always been an uneasy relationship (with varying degrees of seriousness in different places and at different times) between the artist and his society; and it seems to me that the current argument on the proper role of the African artist is part of an age-old tradltion in which the artist is continual ly being required, by society, to justify the social relevance of his art. One might note that as early as Plato, the artist was viewed suspiciously as a sort of moral hazard, a poor imitator who, because his medium is several removes from reality, can impair the reason and harm the good with his 'inferior degree of truth.' In Plato's opinion, the artist has no business in the well-ordered Republic un l ess he can show that there is "a use in poetry as well as a delight. "1 It was because the artist-dramatist was thought to be doing a moral disservice to his society that playhouses in England were closed down in 1642, and ordinances made in 1647 and 1648 "ordering players to be whipped and hearers to be fined."2 The zealous Puritans of the time saw the players and playhouses as disseminating disease and ungodliness, and as dwelling •amid incest. horrors. and perversities." 3 By the Victorian era, the doctrine of 'moral aesthetic' had become the principal yardstick for assessing all literary works. To the traditional Victorians, art lies between religion and hygiene, and hygiene meant the health of the body politic.

  • THE ROLE of JUDGES in the ELECTION PROCESS Abstract
    MUNFOLLJ (3) 2021 THE ROLE OF JUDGES IN THE ELECTION PROCESS Abstract Election has been universally acclaimed as a process of choosing representatives by popular vote by the people in a democratic society. It is one of the attributes of democracy. Election in Nigeria is conducted by an independent Electoral body, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) which is expected to carry out its statutory duties in compliance with the constitution and other enactments and, at the end of the Election process declare a winner in the Election. All contestants in the Election have the constitutional right to ventilate their grievance against the conduct of the Election in the Court or Election Tribunal and the judgment of the Court or Tribunal is binding on all the parties, including INEC. This Paper examines on the Role of Judges in the Election process and the numerous factors which obstruct the Judges in the discharge of their roles in Election matters. It is the findings that the Judges are not adequately discharging their roles in Election matters hence there is no justice and fairness with the resultant lack of confidence by the citizenry on the Courts / Election Tribunals handling Election matters. In conclusion the work recommends that Keywords: Democracy, Election Petition, INEC, Judge 1.0. INTRODUCTION Democracy which has been affirmed as the best form of government in the world, no doubt is a government made up of the generality or representatives of the people. It allows the people to participate in the government by choosing their leaders. Such leaders are chosen in regular and periodic Elections which is one of its attributes.

Accessed September 25, 2021 6:50 PM EDT chapter 3 Fashioning the Modern African Poet DEAD: Christopher Okigbo, circa 37, member of Mbari and Black Orpheus Committees, publisher, poet ; killed in battle at Akwebe in September 1967 on the Nsukka sector of the war in Nigeria fighting on the secessionist side ...1 So began the first issue of Black Orpheus to appear after the departure of its founding editor, Ulli Beier, from Nigeria. Half a year had passed since the start of the civil war between Biafran and federal Nigerian forces, and this brief notice bears signs of the time’s polarized politics. The editors, J. P. Clark and Abiola Irele, proceed to announce “the poem opening on the opposite page”–more accurately, the sequence of poems, Path of Thunder – as “the ‘last testament’ known of this truly Nigerian character,” reclaiming Christopher Okigbo from Biafra for Nigeria at the same time as they honor his writing.

  • Living the Myth: Revisiting Okigbo's Art and Commitment
    Dan Izevbaye Living the myth: Revisiting Okigbo’s Dan Izevbaye is Dean of the Faculty of art and commitment Social and Management Sciences, Bowen University, Iwo, Nigeria; he was previously Professor of English at the University of Ibadan, Nigeria. E-mail: [email protected] Living the myth: Revisiting Okigbo’s art and commitment This is a study of the nature and sources of the persona’s quest in Christopher Okigbo’s poetry. The protagonist in Okigbo’s writing explores the fluid borders between aesthetic and spiritual states, with language and social action as instruments of the self’s aspiration towards spiritual and aesthetic fulfillment. Although Okigbo’s narration is presented in the form of dramatic ritual, the distance or severance of the material from the poet’s own spiritual history is not total, for the historical content eventually intrudes into the writing and reestablishes the authentic autobiography of the poetic self. The historical context, the 1960s, is an age of transition. Okigbo’s characterisation of his persona as an actor in a state of personal transition reflects the poet’s sensitive immersion in the spirit of his times and establishes Okigbo the poet as perhaps its ideal representative. One of the issues raised in this study is that in spite of the protagonist’s recurrent return to the point of passage, there is a relentless drive towards death seen ambiguously as the ultimate goal and state of perfection as well as the perfect form of transition. The central question explored in this study is the roles of poetic diction, the tense politics of the 1960s and the poet’s own intense temperament in determining his peculiar choice of resolution to the dilemma at the centre of his poetry.
