  • “500 Children Missing in Lagos”: Child Kidnapping and Public Anxiety in Colonial Nigeria
    CHAPTER 4 “500 Children Missing in Lagos”: Child Kidnapping and Public Anxiety in Colonial Nigeria Saheed Aderinto and Paul Osifodunrin Introduction The title of this chapter is a front-page headline of the July 31, 1956, issue of the West African Pilot, the best-selling newspaper in 1950s Nigeria.1 The newspaper reported the arrest of one Lamidi Alabi, accused of kidnapping three children (Ganiyu Adisa, Musibawu Adio, and Asani Afoke, all boys, between the ages of three and four) on July 30 and the tumultuous atmosphere at the Lagos Central Police Station, where he was then held. It was truly a difficult day for the police force, which tried to control a mob of over 5,000, com- posed of a “surging crowd of angry women” that wanted to lynch the 38-year-old Alabi for committing a dastardly act; among them were “several mothers” who each sought to ascertain that her child was not among the victims.2 The riot police, a special security force, had to be called in to get the outburst under control.3 The Evening Times reported that traffic at Tinubu Square “came almost to a standstill.”4 Alabi’s arrest did not end the public interest in his case. His first court appearance played host to a “record crowd” of “anxious” onlookers whose interest in the saga only increased as the police investigation and criminal proceedings progressed.5 This chapter explores the phenomenon of child abduction and public anxiety in colonial Nigeria through examination of newspaper sources supplemented with colonial archival materials. It engages the numerous circumstances under which children lost their freedom to 98 SAHEED ADERINTO AND PAUL OSIFODUNRIN kidnappers and the responses from the colonial government and Nigerians.

  • Using Geographical Information System (GIS) Techniques in Mapping Traffic Situation Along Selected Road Corridors in Lagos Metropolis, Nigeria
    Research on Humanities and Social Sciences www.iiste.org ISSN (Paper)2224-5766 ISSN (Online)2225-0484 (Online) Vol.5, No.10, 2015 Using Geographical Information System (GIS) Techniques in Mapping Traffic Situation along Selected Road Corridors in Lagos Metropolis, Nigeria Adebayo. H. Oluwasegun Department of Geography & Regional Planning,Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ago-Iwoye, Ogun State Email: [email protected] Abstract Moving from one point to another in any city in the World is an endurance test, regardless of income or social status, the conditions under which people travel is becoming more and more difficult. The traffic situation in Lagos Metropolis is no different. In this paper, effort has been made to map out traffic situations along selected corridors in Lagos Metropolis, Nigeria using Geographical Information System Techniques. The data used in this study were obtained from Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority (LAMATA) agency, topographical and road map of Lagos metropolis from Lagos state ministry of Land s and Survey and Lagos state ministry of Transport. In addition, primary data include the geographic coordinates of the selected traffic corridors using GPS (Global Positioning System), observation of the nature of vehicular traffic congestion and traffic counts along the corridors. The data obtained was entered and used to developed traffic situation information system (TSIS). Data retrieved and spatial analysis from attributes were shown using ArcGIS 10. The results were presented in map format which makes for easy interpretation and quick decision-making. Geographic Information System is an effective tool to display different levels of congestion and vehicular volume along digital traffic corridors.

  • Transforming the Future
    TRANSFORMING THE FUTURE Impact Statement 2017 Built by Crown Agents at the start of the twentieth century, the Carter Bridge in Nigeria was the first bridge to connect Lagos Island to the mainland. The bridge transformed the city, helping to boost the population from 40,000 in 1901 to over 20 million inhabitants today. This rapid growth in the urban population is happening across the globe, and it is changing what it 3 5 7 means to do development at scale.

While organized pickpocketing and prostitution by young people emerged as an issue in Nigerian newspapers in the 1920s, it was largely ignored by local administrators until the appointment, in 1941, of the first Social Welfare Officer.

  • An Evaluation of Transport Infrastructure in Lagos State, Nigeria
    Journal of Alternative Perspectives in the Social Sciences (201 3) Volume 5 No 3, 477 -494 _____________________________________________ AN EVALUATION OF TRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURE IN LAGOS STATE, NIGERIA Atubi, Augustus .O. (Ph.D) 1 Associate Professor Department of Geography and Regional Planning Delta State University, Abraka E-mail: [email protected] Phone No.: 08037450078 Abstract: The need to sustain the growth and development of human settlement and their economies, among user things, makes it partly imperative for the transport sector to be very responsive to different forces that affect transport planning, operations and management. Among these forces are the ownership and control structure of transport infrastructure and services, level of investment in various transport modes (air, maritime, rail, inland water and road), degree of inter-modal coordination, rate of response to transport technological changes, especially in respect of international transport, extent of obsolescence or modernization of the transport system, ability to adapt to changing transport supply – demand pattern and the state of the economy. Keywords : Infrastructure; evaluation; transport; economy; Lagos; Nigeria 1 Atubi, Augustus .O. holds the B.Sc., M.Sc., and Ph.D. degrees in Geography from the University of Nigeria, Nsukka. He is an Associate Professor at the Delta State University, Abraka. Dr. Atubi is a specialist in Urban Transportation Planning, Road Traffic Accident Analysis and Transport Policy Impact Analysis.

The most fundamental reason for this being the catalytic effect of transport development on socio- economic growth and development. Transport can also play a significant role in territorial administration, political development, the defence of territories as well as in promoting regional cooperation. In Lagos State, there is a complex mix of landuses and all the major broad groupings of person movements in urban areas are made between them. Thus, while trips are made for a variety of purposes they are made to and from various landuses. Within any specified geographical area, certain landuses are greater attractors or generators of trips than others. However, the type of landuse in Lagos affects the flow of traffic to and from any location and therefore, the possibility of road traffic accidents. Introduction Transport System Management (TSM) is concerned with making existing transport systems as efficient as possible and with making provision for an area’s short-range transportation needs. It is a key element in the transportation improvement programme of an urban area.

It is gaining 3,000 new residents every day.” The United Nations has estimated that in eight years the population of this Nigerian megalopolis will reach 23 million, which would make it the third- biggest city in the world. It is a high-contrast place, where computers are sold from stick-built kiosks that have no electricity, and multinationals make piles of money from informal streetside stalls. When it comes to busi- ness, Lagos is the equivalent of Jorge Luis Borges’ Aleph: a point in the world that contains everything. It is impossibly polluted, impossibly crowded, impossibly annoying, impossibly haphazard. This vision – of Lagos as the urban nadir, the most vile, squalid, and criminal place on the planet, site of government corruption and source of annoying scam spam – has long dominated writings on the city, and has even been parroted with pride by Lagosians themselves. In contrast, Rem Koolhaas, who spent four years researching the city, has put forward a less desolate, more nuanced view – seeing Lagos as an often self-built and organic conurbation full of social messages.
