The thesis considers the preva- lent residential areas of Lagos as a coherent spatial configuration and works to proposing conceptualise Plotting as a heuristic theoretical category to account for them. Lagos still represents a significant chal- lenge to current urban theory and methods. The gaps in knowledge about Lagos speak to the inadequate conceptual and methodological tools there have so far been to approach and analyse it as a ‘city of the global South’. This thesis forms part of the recent impetus in urban studies for new ways of producing knowledge about the urban with a revalorised focus on Southern urbanism and comparison. As such, this thesis works to formulate Plotting as a new conceptual tool to account for the production of the prevalent spatial configuration of Lagos that has not been adequately analysed by taking a grounded theory approach within a wider comparative framework. This configuration consists of extensive resi- dential areas where the majority of people in Lagos live, mostly in the ubiquitous form of rental housing called Face-Me-I-Face You. Plotting is conceptualised to account for the piecemeal development and intensification of these areas through the contradictions, contestations and multiple systems of territo- rial authority of the dual land regime in Lagos. This research is part of the Planetary Urbanisation in Comparative Perspective project that undertook a theoretically and methodologically rigorous compari- son of eight urban regions based the grounded empirical work of eight colleagues and myself: Tokyo, Hong Kong-Shenzhen-Dongguan, Kolkata, Istanbul, Lagos, Paris, Mexico City and Los Angeles. This thesis adopts a grounded theory methodology, collecting and analysing qualitative data in order to build new theoretical categories through iterative rounds of data collection and analysis including comparative analysis. Data was primarily collected through intensive periods of fieldwork between 2012-2014. Desk- based methods were also used but there was an emphasis on fieldwork to address the lack of available data in certain areas and to allow concepts to emerge from the ground. The first two chapters of the thesis are a product of the pattern and pathway analysis conducted as part of the comparative project. Read together, they provide a comprehensive representation of Lagos, further represented through a configuration map. The Pattern chapter identifies and analyses the spatial configurations of Lagos: areas dominated by a specific process of urbanisation and what this process is. The extensive residential areas of Lagos that are the focus of this research were identified as a discrete spatial configuration in this way. The Periodization of Lagos works to show the formation of the dynam- ics through which the present day patterns emerged, emphasising the emergence and reproduction of the dual territorial regulation and dual land regime and their fundamentally unequal spatial and power dynamics. The thesis then looks at the current tools available to analyse the extensive residential areas and finds them to be ‘missed’ either by rich empirical work that remains detached from urban theory, or by one-dimensional analyses both of which stop short of considering these areas as part of a discrete multidimensional process or spatial configuration. Further, the broader literature on informal rental housing and land delivery in unplanned areas of urban Africa shows these areas of Lagos to form part of a blindspot in literature and policy towards prevalent but tolerated majority conditions. The main vi body of the thesis, chapters 6 and 7, then do the work of conceptualising Plotting as the process of urbanisation that produced the spatial configuration identified through the pattern analysis. Together they form a multidimensional analysis that attempts to account for its complexities and specificities. Chapter 6 looks at the (dual) regulatory dimension and how it affects everyday life, introducing the no- tion of ‘private/ network gain over public good’ to examine the power dynamics and structures of social organisation that developed reciprocally with Plotting. The chapter offers a working definition of Plot- ting derived through the research and a comparative analysis of Lagos, Istanbul, Kolkata and Shenzhen.

  • The Effects of Mergers and Acquisition on Corporate Growth and Profitability
    GLOBAL JOURNAL OF BUSINESS RESEARCH ♦ VOLUME 7 ♦ NUMBER 1 ♦ 2013 THE EFFECTS OF MERGERS AND ACQUISITION ON CORPORATE GROWTH AND PROFITABILITY: EVIDENCE FROM NIGERIA Sylvester Feyi Akinbuli, University of Lagos, Distance Learning Institute Ikechukwu Kelilume, Lagos Business School ABSTRACT It is a widely held view that a strategic solution to financial distress in corporate organizations is mergers and acquisitions. This view remains a presumption, which has not been empirically tested through a research study. Corporate organizations facing difficulty have in recent times often followed or are compelled by regulators to follow the path of extensive reconstruction through mergers and acquisitions, apparently as the only option to liquidation. This paper fills a gap in the literature by investigating the effects of mergers and acquisitions on the efficiency, growth and profitability of corporate organizations in the post consolidated environment of the Nigerian banking industry. The methodology used is a survey of companies incorporated in Nigeria under the Companies and Allied Matters Act [1990], which have undergone a merger or an acquisition process. The elements of the survey were selected randomly. A total of ten incorporated banks were selected using simple random sampling technique. The collected data were analyzed using key financial ratios. The results support the idea that mergers and acquisitions are not a prima facie solution to the problem of financial distress in corporate organizations. This is especially so when mergers are regulatory imposed than business environment driven. The study further revealed that while mergers and acquisitions can drive growth and profitability in some organizations, operating efficiency suffers at least in the short-term in the post merger and acquisition corporate entity.

  • “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.

  • Report of the West African Hub Meeting
    REPORT OF THE WEST AFRICAN HUB MEETING HELD IN LAGOS, NIGERIA 2-7 OCTOBER 2017 HOSTED BY: Report Compiled by: Nigerian Slum/Informal Settlement Federation Background to the West African Hub Meeting The West Africa Hub meeting is the opportunity for all Federations in West Africa to come together in one city through exchange to learn from and challenge each other. Exchange is one of the key tools of the SDI network that is central to deepening our core rituals, stopping forced evictions, promoting participatory urban planning and development. Exactly 1 year ago in Accra, Ghana, the West African Federations of SDI converged to hold the preceding Hub Meeting from 2-7 October 2016. The theme was “Keeping Our Federations Through Savings Data.” The theme was no doubt apt as savings is the first core ritual of SDI; a tool for mobilization of every federation of the urban poor for their dignity, development, and to resist forced eviction through advocacy for inclusion. The theme of the follow-up 2017 Hub Meeting hosted by the Nigerian Federation is “Building Inclusive Cities.” This is a response to the rhythm of pains, sufferings and negative experiences of the Nigerian Federation members, in the spate of violent-mass evictions. Over 300,000 waterfront residents threatened with forced eviction by the Governor of Lagos State Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode in October of 2016, and then in November 2016, 30,000 people were forcefully evicted from Otodo Gbame waterfront community. All 33 threatened waterfront communities profiled by the Nigerian Federation enjoyed the respite of court order that condemned the Lagos Government’s actions as illegal, cruel, inhuman and degrading – but so much more needs to be done.

  • 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.
