  • COLONIALISM, URBANISATION and the GROWTH of ONITSHA, 1857-1960 *Mmesoma N
    COLONIALISM, URBANISATION AND THE GROWTH OF ONITSHA, 1857-1960 *Mmesoma N. Umeagudosi and Amarachi C. Obidiaju Abstract There is no gainsaying that colonialism changed the patterns of urbanisation in Africa. What this means is that there were existing patterns of urbanisation in most African communities before colonial incursions and these have inspired scholarly researches of various depth and volumes. Considering an identified problem in African historiography, which tends to give minimal attention to the exigencies that led to changes in patterns of urbanisation in particular African communities, this paper adopts the historical research method, with effective use of primary, secondary and tertiary sources of data that were subjected to qualitative interpretation, to document and analyse the processes of urbanisation in Africa since colonial incursion, with the commercial city of Onitsha as a study area. The study observes that urbanisation in Onitsha was not necessarily an impact of colonialism. Instead, the colonial administration only effected changes on the pattern of urbanisation in the city. Such changes were precipitated by the colonial economic policies, which among other things, used the inland waterways as effective transport facility for primary produce extracted from the various produce centres around the Niger River. However, other factors of change encouraged rapid urbanisation of Onitsha during colonialism in Nigeria. A conspicuous factor is colonial administrative measures, which saw to the establishment of Onitsha

  • The Odo Masquerade Institution and Tourism Development: a Case Study of Igbo- Etiti Local Government Area of Enugu State
    International Journal of Research in Arts and Social Sciences Vol 3 The Odo Masquerade Institution And Tourism Development: A Case Study Of Igbo- Etiti Local Government Area Of Enugu State E. I. Itanyi Abstract Generally speaking “Odo” popularly known and addressed as “Odomagala” or “Ekewo” in some towns like Ukehe, Aku, Diogbe, Umunko, Ohebe, Umuna, Ochima, Ikolo, Umuoka, Onyohor, and Udueme communities that make up the “Igbo-Odo” sector of Igbo- Etiti Local Government Area, simply means the ancestral spirit of their forefathers that usually visit them once every two years. The activities of the Odo masquerade such as the worshiping, returning from and going back to the land of the spirit and outing ceremonies associated with the Odo and the Odo leaders (Dikwu or Akpara Odo or Ekewo) is seen as a cult or an institution. Odo masquerade plays both cultural, tourism and religious roles. The Odo is worshipped and people confess their sins and beg for forgiveness and longevity from the masquerade. On Odo and tourism, the outing ceremony of the Odo is displayed in public places usually the town‟s public square „Otobo‟ where every body both indigenes and non indigenes would gather and even photographs of the masquerade taken either freely or on the payment of a token fee. By so doing, it enhances the economy of the people of the destination area through income- multiplier principle. African culture is embedded in oral tradition passed on from one generation to the other. The chief priests of the Odo masquerade play vital role in this aspect. It is our contention here that the institution should be harnessed and conserved for posterity as it is an important aspect of our cultural patrimony.

Sedimentation method was used in analyzing the urine samples and combi-9 test strips were used in testing for haematuria, the stool samples were parasitologically analyzed using the formal ether technique. A total of six hundred and twenty samples were collected from the pupils which include 310 urine samples and 310 stool samples. Out of the 310 urine samples examined, 139 (44.84%) were infected with urinary schistosomiasis, while out of 310 stool samples examined, 119 (38.39%) were infected with intestinal schistosomiasis. By carrying out the statistical analysis, it was found that urinary schistosomiasis is significantly higher at (p<0.05) than intestinal schistosomiasis. Children between 12-14 years were the most infected with both urinary and intestinal schistosomiasis with prevalence of 45 (14.84%) and 48 (15.48%), respectively, while children between 3-5 years were the least infected with both urinary and intestinal schistosomiasis 30 (9.68%) and 25 (8.06%), respectively.

Father Vincent NWOSU ABSTRACT Recent studies in African church historiography have increasingly shown that the generally acknowledged successful planting of Christian Churches in parts of Africa, especially the East and West, from the nineteenth century was not entirely the work of foreign missionaries alone. Africans themselves participated actively in p la n tin g , sustaining and propagating the faith. These Africans can clearly be grouped into two: first, those who were ordained ministers of the church, and secondly, the lay members.

Specifically, the study was designed to examine the subsistence strategies, gendered role patterns and gender gaps in economic relations of the Nrobo. Design/methodology/approach – This study used ethnographic methods of participant observation – adopting chitchatting and semi-structured interviews. Also, focus group discussion (FGD) was used to cross- check the validity of data from the other instrument. Findings – This study found among other things, that although there is still verbal expression of gendered roles division, it does not mirror what actually obtains in society, except bio-social roles. Ideological superiority of men reflects the patrilineal kinship arrangement of society. Theoretically, some of the hypotheses of gender inequality theory were disputed for lack of adequate explanation of gender and economic relations in an egalitarian-reflected society such as Nrobo. Originality/value – This study, to the best of my knowledge, is the first attempt to ethnographically examine gender and economic relations among this group. As such it adds to the corpus of ethnographies on the Igbo of Southeastern Nigeria. Keywords Gender, Gender inequality, Ethnographic method, Gender and economic relations, Rural economic relations, Southeastern Nigeria, Gendered role patterns Paper type Research paper Introduction Issues of gender inequality have been extensively explored in relation to contemporary Western and non-Western multicultural societies.

  • WOMEN and Elecnons in NIGERIA: SOME EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE from the DECEMBER 1991 Elecnons in ENUGU STATE
    64 UFAHAMU WOMEN AND ELEcnONS IN NIGERIA: SOME EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE FROM THE DECEMBER 1991 ELEcnONS IN ENUGU STATE Okechukwu lbeanu Introduction Long before "modem" (Western) feminism became fashionable, the "woman question" had occupied the minds of social thinkers. In fact, this question dates as far back as the Judeo-Christian (Biblical) notion that the subordinate position of women in society is divinely ordained. • Since then, there have also been a number of biological and pseudo-scientific explanations that attribute the socio-economic and, therefore, political subordination of women to the menfolk, to women's physiological and spiritual inferiority to men. Writing in the 19th century, well over 1,800 years A. D., both Marx and Engels situate the differential social and political positions occupied by the two sexes in the relations of production. These relations find their highest expression of inequality in the capitalist society (Engels, 1978). The subordination of women is an integral part of more general unequal social (class) relations. For Marx, "the degree of emancipation of women is the natural measure of general emancipation" (Vogel, 1979: 42). Most writings on the "woman problematique" have generically been influenced by the above perspectives. However, more recent works commonly emphasized culture and socialization in explaining the social position of women. The general idea is that most cultures discriminate against women by socializing them into subordinate roles (Baldridge, 1975). The patriarchal character of power and opportunity structures in most cultures set the basis for the social, political and economic subordination of women. In consequence, many societies socialize their members into believing that public life is not for the female gender.
