Facebook: Centre for Social Justice, Nigeria iv Table of Contents Foreword vi Abia State 1 Anambra State 11 Ebonyi State 24 Enugu State 31 Imo State 50 v FOREWORD In accordance with the mandate of Citizens Wealth Platform (CWP) to ensure that public resources are made to work and be of benefit to all, we present the federal capital budget pull-out of the states in the South East Geo-Political Zone of Nigeria for the financial year 2016. This has been our tradition since the last five years to provide capital budget information to Nigerians. The pull- out provides information on ministries, departments and agencies; name of projects, locations and the amount budgeted. By section 24 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigerian 1999 (as amended), it is the duty of every Nigerian to make positive and useful contributions to the advancement, progress and well-being of the community where she resides. In providing this pullout, CWP facilitates the performance of the civic duty and removes the boredom of every citizen having to search through thousands of pages of the federal budget to find out the projects sited in her community and or of interest to her. In these days of harsh economic realities leading to increased poverty, job losses, non-payment or irregular payment of worker’s salaries, high inflation rate and depreciating national currency, Nigerians should ensure greater value for money and that every kobo counts. We should use social mobilization to block leakages in the system and budget monitoring comes in handy. Democracy and development are a peoples’ work in progress; they demand meaningful participation, vigilance on the part of citizens and holding duty bearers to account. The money in the budget belongs to us all as citizens, tax payers, mothers, fathers, young men and women, etc. Recent reports of mind boggling sums mismanaged by government officials reaffirm the need for citizens’ vigilance and participation. Transparency and governmental accountability are not usually products of written legal or policy documents; they come from a peoples push and insistence that processes must be open. As the ultimate sovereigns, we should not allow our money to be mismanaged again. The space is open and we need to utilise it to facilitate monitoring and reporting on federal capital projects. CWP expects Nigerians of all shades, not just the NGOs but the media, organised labour, organised private sector, professional groups, informal sector groups, women organisations, the youth, faith based organisations, community development associations, town unions, etc to go out there and be in the forefront of following the money to determine if it reached the appropriated destination. How good and how pleasant it will be, before God and man, to see that Nigeria’s money and resources are made to work and be of benefit to all. May God continue to bless Nigeria.

  • 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.

The paper examined the availability of some social infrastructural facilities in rural parts of Imo State. It equally examined the extent to which those facilities have promoted rural development in the State. Data were collected mainly from primary sources. A total number of 2,340 copies of questionnaire were administered in eighteen communities and all were retrieved for the analysis. Research findings revealed unevenness in the availability of potable water supply and telephone (analogue landline) facilities. However, the availability of electricity, educational and health facilities were largely indicated by respondents in the 18 study communities to be well spread across the State. The paper noted some rural development implications as the result of the Z-test of proportion statistics led to the rejection of the null hypothesis and the acceptance of the alternative, which is that, majority of rural areas in Imo State, have significant presence of social infrastructural facilities that enhance economic activities. Keywords: infrastructure, rural development, communities, services, Nigeria Introduction The issue of infrastructure and the development of rural areas have continued to be topical in Nigeria.

Multi-stage and Purposive sampling procedure was used to select 60 respondents which constituted the sample size of the study. Data were obtained through the use of a structured questionnaire. Descriptive statistics such as frequency counts and percentages, and inferential statistics such as correlation and z-test procedure were employed for analyses of data. Findings indicated that majority of the respondents (81.67%) were at their youthful age of 16 to 45 years old. The highest household size obtained was between 4 and 9 persons per household. Majority of the respondents in the study area (53.33%) were small scale farmers and had below 6 hectares of rice farm land. Poor living conditions, low influx of income and lack of employment were the most important reasons for rural-urban migration as confirmed by the respondents in Enugu State (65.00%). In the study area, 62.68% migrated to the urban areas. A larger proportion of the respondents (60.00%) indicated that between 4 and 9 household members participated in the rice production activities.

Summary Introduction. Rapid and uncontrolled industrialisation and urbanisation in most developing countries are resulting in land, air and water pollution at rates that the natural environment cannot fully renew. These contemporary environmental issues have attracted local, national and international attention. The problem of urban garbage management is associated with rapid population growth in developing countries.

  • Cultural Festival in Ezinihitte Mbaise, Imo State
    Kola Nut (Oji) Cultural Festival in Ezinihitte Mbaise, Imo State N.C. Ihediwa, V. Nwashindu, and C.M. Onah Department of History and International Studies University of Nigeria, Nsukka Abstract The common saying in Igboland is that every other culture group in Nigeria eats kola nuts, but it is only in Igboland that kola nut oji is not only eaten, but also celebrated. This position is true of the Igbo who do not cultivate kola nuts in abundance as a commercial venture like the Yoruba, but have deep reverence for the fruits because of its significance in the Igbo worldview. The Igbo do not eat this fruit like other groups in Nigeria, who essentially eat it for its sedative qualities as well as a hunger therapy, or who use it because of its role as stimulant and aspirin, nicotine and caffeine put together. The social significance of this fruit has lifted it from a mere unprofitable luxury to a vital necessity in the social and cultural settings of the Igbo, particularly the Ezinihitte Mbaise group in Imo State. Here kola nut cultural festival is celebrated annually and on rotation amongst the sixteen communities that make up the local government council area. The Oji Ezinihitte Mbaise cultural festival is not only an occasion for the communities to examine their progress and challenges, but also one for attracting visitors, friends and well-wishers from far and near to be part of a cultural fiesta that entertains guests to their souls. It is also used as a medium to attract government in their developmental projects as well as brain storm on other possibilities.
