Nigeria: Marriage certificates, including their appearance and security features; requirements and procedure to obtain them from within the country or from abroad; prevalence of fraudulent documents (2018–October 2020) 1. Marriage Registration According to sources, Nigerian laws recognize Islamic, customary and statutory [registry (US n.d.)] marriages (Nigeria n.d.a; Doma-Kutigi, 2019, 25). A journal article on certifying Islamic marriages in Nigeria by Halima Doma-Kutigi, who teaches law at Nasarawa State University and Baze University in Nigeria, indicates that each marriage type is "distinct and separate" from the others (Doma-Kutigi 2019, 22, 23), while the US reciprocity schedule explains that specific requirements apply to each one (US n.d.). Sources report that customary and Islamic marriages are not required to be registered (US n.d.; Doma-Kutigi 2019, 22) or have no government record (Nigeria n.d.a). The US Department of State's reciprocity schedule states that [i]ndividuals will sometimes, when necessary, swear an affidavit in a court that they are married in order to provide written proof of such a marriage. Some Local Governments will issue a certificate based on that affidavit by virtue of the Registration of Customary Marriage [by-l]aws. Absence of an affidavit or certificate of this kind cannot be taken as lack of marital status. (US n.d.) Doma-Kutigi indicates that by-laws allowing local authorities to register customary marriage exist in "most" states (Doma-Kutigi 2019, 29).

  • Socio-Ecological Metabolisms of Eko Atlantic City, Lagos, Nigeria: an Unjust City?
    Socio-Ecological Metabolisms of Eko Atlantic City, Lagos, Nigeria: An Unjust City? Joseph Adeniran Adedeji Department of Architecture, Federal University of Technology, Akure, Nigeria Abstract My aim in this paper is to examine the socio-ecological metabolisms involved in the production processes of Eko Atlantic City (EAC) in Lagos, Nigeria with a view to suggesting an adaptable metabolism framework based on political ecology. This is consequent upon the continually perceived ailments of this capitalist urbanisation project on the majority poor populace. Results suggest the major components of the framework to include capitalism, neoliberalism, authoritarianism, class differentiation, socio-spatial segregation, and socio-ecological disorganisation, all in the name of climate change adaptation. It concludes by advocating for strategies for framing a truly democratic and inclusive urban governance at EAC. What is the city and what forces frame its identity? Developmental mega-city projects can illuminate our understanding and guide a re-thinking of the actual meaning of the city. An evaluation of the process of recovering the ocean space to construct the 10-million square meter Eko Atlantic City (EAC) in Lagos, Nigeria, can help us redefine the city with the lenses of political ecology and social justice. The EAC is a large-scale urbanisation project that leaves a plethora of questions in inquisitive minds, especially given the project’s lopsided proceeds destined for the upper class. It has been christened a climate change adaptation project, but the larger quest borders on adaptation for whom? The discourse in the paper is structured in three parts to answer the following questions: 1) what is the socio-ecological inclusiveness of this oceanscape before the inception of EAC; 2) what are the dominant narratives in the literature on the Urban Socio-Ecological Metabolisms (USEM) that continue to trail the conception and birth of EAC; and 3) to what extent has EAC charted the course for a new urban vocabulary beyond neoliberalism to produce a new USEM framework.

    Country Policy and Information Note Nigeria: Prison conditions Version 1.0 November 2016 Preface This note provides country of origin information (COI) and policy guidance to Home Office decision makers on handling particular types of protection and human rights claims. This includes whether claims are likely to justify the granting of asylum, humanitarian protection or discretionary leave and whether – in the event of a claim being refused – it is likely to be certifiable as ‘clearly unfounded’ under s94 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002. Decision makers must consider claims on an individual basis, taking into account the case specific facts and all relevant evidence, including: the policy guidance contained with this note; the available COI; any applicable caselaw; and the Home Office casework guidance in relation to relevant policies. Country Information The COI within this note has been compiled from a wide range of external information sources (usually) published in English. Consideration has been given to the relevance, reliability, accuracy, objectivity, currency, transparency and traceability of the information and wherever possible attempts have been made to corroborate the information used across independent sources, to ensure accuracy. All sources cited have been referenced in footnotes.

  • Environmental and Social Impact Assessment of the Eko Atlantic Shoreline Protection and Reclamation Project- a Summary
    ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT OF THE EKO ATLANTIC SHORELINE PROTECTION AND RECLAMATION PROJECT- A SUMMARY The Eko Atlantic Shoreline Protection and Reclamation Project will provide approximately 1000 hectares (ha) of high quality land for development within the heart of Lagos, Nigeria and will offer a long-term solution to the shoreline erosion problems at Victoria Island, Lagos. Coastal Protection and the Development of a Future Modern City in Lagos, Nigeria. Project Location South Energyx Nigeria Ltd (SENL) was specifically created to undertake the development of the Eko Atlantic Project. Key elements of the management structure of SENL have a distinguished track record in Nigeria for the successful completion of major construction and engineering works. The Project site is located adjacent to Bar Beach, at Victoria Island, Lagos, within the Eti-Osa Local Government Area. The Need for the Eko Atlantic Project Protection: The shoreline of Victoria Island has retreated significantly over the past century. The main cause for this erosion began with the blocking of coastal sediment transport after the construction of two moles or breakwaters (between 1908 and 1912) at the entrance to the Port of Lagos. Coastal protection activity was frequently commissioned to reduce the erosion threat to Victoria Island, including several nourishment schemes. However, those attempts only temporarily mitigated the erosion and there continued to be intermittent flooding in this coastal area. The erosion culminated in 2006, when the protective beach disappeared with resultant flood damage to the road infrastructure along Bar Beach. The images presented below illustrate the situation in 2006. With no action, highly valued areas of residential and commercial property would continue to have been threatened by intrusion of sea water.

One of the positive outcomes derived from past editions of this valuable study has been a notable improvement in the often‐derogatory ways that sports commentators used to routinely speak of women athletes. The good news in this report is that there is far less insulting and overtly sexist treatment of women athletes than there was twenty or even ten years ago.

[email protected]) 1 ABSTRACT The need for adequate and decent housing is now part of the central focus and an integral component in National strategies for growth and poverty reduction. Decent and affordable housing is one of the basic needs of individuals, family and the community at large. As a pre-requisite to the survival of man, housing ranks second only to food. Housing as a unit of the environment has a profound influence on the health, efficient, social behaviour, satisfaction and general welfare of the community at large. It reflects the cultural, social and economic value of the society as it is the best physical and historical evidence of civilization in a country. The importance of housing in every life of human being and in national economy in general is enormous. Housing problem in Africa especially in Nigeria is not only limited to quantities but also qualities of the available housing units environment. It is in view of this that the paper views the challenges of housing delivery in the Lagos Metropolis.
