Definition of a Language The preparation of a listing of Nigerian languages inevitably begs the question of the definition of a language. The terms 'language' and 'dialect' have rather different meanings in informal speech from the more rigorous definitions that must be attempted by linguists. Dialect, in particular, is a somewhat pejorative term suggesting it is merely a local variant of a 'central' language. In linguistic terms, however, dialect is merely a regional, social or occupational variant of another speech-form. There is no presupposition about its importance or otherwise. Because of these problems, the more neutral term 'lect' is coming into increasing use to describe any type of distinctive speech-form. However, the Index inevitably must have head entries and this involves selecting some terms from the thousands of names recorded and using them to cover a particular linguistic nucleus. In general, the choice of a particular lect name as a head-entry should ideally be made solely on linguistic grounds.

The study is motivated by the need to understand the impact of ethnic culture on employee value allegiance and how this translates into ethnic loyalty or organisational commitment within private sector organisations in culturally diverse and developing economies like Nigeria.

    Global Journal of Applied, Management and Social Sciences (GOJAMSS); Vol.13 December 2016; P.244 – 252 (ISSN: 2276 – 9013) CHRISTIAN RELIGIOUS KNOWLEDGE AS A TOOL FOR FIGHTING ETHNOCENTRISM IN NIGERIA REV. FR. DR. CHRISTIAN O. ELE General Studies Division, Enugu State University of Science and Technology, Agbani, Enugu State. Nigeria. Email: [email protected] Phone no: +2348063667566 Abstract This paper focuses on the bio-social roots of Nigerians as respective citizens of the many ethnic nationalities that make up their country. As a country with plural tribes, Nigeria is blessed as a consequence. This is because the diverse and heterogeneous peoples that populate Nigeria are excellent sources of strength, if united, and enormous reservoir of human capital, if harnessed. However, from the findings of this paper that there is an undue emphasis on one’s ethnic bond to the detriment of the national ideals of justice and peace, love and unity. Some citizens consequently are isolated, marginalized and seen only but not heard. This is the effect of the evil of ethnocentrism. This tribal consciousness which discriminates against one’s fellow human beings based on the prejudice of native origins and boundaries has thrown Nigeria into chaos and chains of hydra-headed economic, socio-cultural, religious and political problems. This work sees the solution as the application of the contents of Christian Religious Knowledge which should influence our daily lives in the Nigerian society. Jesus Christ, the author of Christian Religion has evidenced in the Holy Bible that tongues and tribes may differ but we are from one Father (Matthew.

  • Ethnicity and Missional Strategies Within the Presbyterian Church of Nigeria
    ETHNICITY AND MISSIONAL STRATEGIES WITHIN THE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH OF NIGERIA By Uma Agwu Onwunta (Rev.) Dissertation presented for the Degree of Doctor of Theology in Missiology at the University of Stellenbosch Promoter: Professor H. J. Hendriks December 2006 DECLARATION I, the undersigned, hereby declare that the work in this dissertation is my own original work and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it at any university for a degree. Signature: …………………………… Date: ……………………………….. ii ABSTRACT This study and dissertation examines “Ethnicity and missional strategies within the Presbyterian Church of Nigeria.” A historical study of the mission methods and an empirical study of current missionary practices in the church point to the need for a new missional identity of the church. This missional identity requires a reversal of and a change to missionary strategies that should result into reconciliatory missiology. In the process of making this assessment of the Presbyterian mission in Nigeria, it was necessary to re- visit the missionary ecclesiologies that shaped and contributed to the present identity. Thus, the research focused on the missionary impact of the Church of Scotland, Presbyterian Church in Canada, Presbyterian Church (USA), and the Netherlands Reformed Church (NRC). Insights from these historical excursions helped in determining not only the blessings that these ecclesiologies brought to bear on Nigerian Presbyterianism but also in discovering the burdens they brought on their trails, especially, regarding the seed of racism which was a precursor to the present ethnocentrism in the PCN. The second segment of this research was the empirical study of the current mission and work of the PCN.

The Distance Learning mode to which we are committed is providing access to many deserving Nigerians in having access to higher education especially those who by the nature of their engagement do not have the luxury of full time education. Recently, it is contributing in no small measure to providing places for teeming Nigerian youths who for one reason or the other could not get admission into the conventional universities. These course materials have been written by writers specially trained in ODL course delivery. The writers have made great efforts to provide up to date information, knowledge and skills in the different disciplines and ensure that the materials are user- friendly. In addition to provision of course materials in print and e-format, a lot of Information Technology input has also gone into the deployment of course materials.
