  • Civil-Military Relations in Nigeria and Tanzania: a Comparative, Historical Analysis
    Civil-Military Relations in Nigeria and Tanzania: A comparative, historical analysis Ragnhild Hoel Thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts (International Studies) at the Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Prof. P.J. McGowan December 2008 Declaration By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the owner of the copyright thereof (unless to the extent explicitly otherwise stated) and that I have not previously in its entirety or in the part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Date: 6 November 2008 Copyright © 2008 Stellenbosch University II Abstract Civil-military relations play an important role in Africa as these relations strongly influence the processes of development and democratisation. This thesis examines civil-military relations in Nigeria and Tanzania, as these two countries have experienced very different ‘patterns of influence, control, and subordination between the armed forces and the wider social environment’. Most theories of civil-military relations have been formulated by Western scholars and this study investigates if these theories are applicable to Nigeria and Tanzania. As only two cases are under focus, this thesis does not aim to dismiss any of the theories or to develop new theory; rather, I suggest new aspects and factors that should be included when studying African civil-military relations. The theoretical framework includes theories by Huntington, Finer, and Janowitz, as well as theories by more recent scholars. After presenting the history of civil- military relations in Nigeria and Tanzania, I analyse the theories’ validity in the two cases by evaluating five hypotheses based on these theoretical frameworks.

  • Fela Anikulapo-Kuti's 'Beast of No Nation'
    Language, Literature, and Interdisciplinary Studies (LLIDS) ISSN: 2457-0044 Fela Anikulapo-Kuti’s ‘Beast of No Nation’: A Historical Discourse Raheem Oluwafunminiyi For Fela, music was not only a weapon but a means to change the world.1 He was conscious of this and very much vigorously pursued it with all sense of devotion. Such was the nature of his music that Fela himself had once said he wanted to play music that would not only be meaningful but also stand the test of time. True to this day, most, if not all, of Fela’s music have stood that “test” and in all, continues to elicit debate among a wide spectrum of society. Known for his pioneering efforts in creating the Afro-beat genre, Fela is considered as one of the most important music personalities to have emerged in post- independence Nigeria. Beyond this, he is best described as a legendary rebel, no doubt, with a cause, who at times wore an eccentric garb. He was perhaps the only musical figure of his generation who used music as a potent weapon and voice against tyranny, brutality and oppression. His fierce criticisms against the political class and on diverse issues of the day earned him constant rebuttal by the government. It is against this background and his brutal experiences in the hands of the Nigerian state that formed the crux of most of his protest music, Beast of No Nation not being an exception. A song like Beast of No Nation is not uncommon in Fela’s music corpus. This however, appear to be unique for two possible reasons.

  • Role of the Military in Democratic Transitions and Succession in Nigeria
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SOCIAL SCIENCES AND HUMANITY STUDIES Vol 8, No 1, 2016 ISSN: 1309-8063 (Online) ROLE OF THE MILITARY IN DEMOCRATIC TRANSITIONS AND SUCCESSION IN NIGERIA E. E. Obioha Walter Sisulu University, South Africa. Email: [email protected]; [email protected] ─Abstract ─ This paper examined the military as an institution and its role in democratic succession in Nigeria. The paper articulated on how various republics in Nigeria failed and what role the military played during these periods. The study relied mainly on secondary data sources, which includes periodicals and other archival documents that provided the required information for the discourse. Data gathered were analyzed through content analysis. Critical and logical analysis of data attested that the military had played the role of distractive force in Nigeria’s democratization process. The military institution presented itself and acted in most occasions as a false custodian of democratic principles by initiating and implementing flawed elections for transition. However, emerging facts further suggest that these democratic principles and arrangements put in place by the military were usually faulty and inadequate for sustainable democratic governance to thrive on. Most general elections organized by the military to transit power have been descriptive of milidemocray, where previous military officers acquire democratic power through stage managed processes. The military institution therefore has functioned as a partisan organisation where various acts of election packaging were learnt and electioneering overtures acquired, despite its instrumental role in sustaining democracy in the country. This paper therefore concludes that the military has been more of a distractive than consolidation force of democratic transitions, and free and fair elections in Nigeria democracy, since her independence.

    Nigeria and the Politics of Unreason Page 1 of 27 Nigeria and the Politics of Unreason: Political Assassinations, Decampments, Moneybags, and Public Protests By Victor E. Dike Introduction The problems facing Nigeria emanate from many fronts, which include irrational behavior (actions) of the political elite, politics of division, and politics devoid of political ideology. Others factors are corruption and poverty, lack of distributive justice, regional, and religious cleavages. All these combine to create crises (riots and conflicts) in the polity, culminating in public desperation and insecurity, politics of assassinations, decampments (carpet crossing), moneybags, and public protests. All this reached its climax during the 2003 elections. When the nation thinks it is shifting away from these forces, they would somersault and clash again creating another political thunderstorm. It looks that the society would hardly outgrow ‘the politics of unreason’ (Lipset and Raab, 1970), which is often politics of extremism, because the political class is always going beyond the limits of what are reasonable to secure or retain political power. During the 2003 elections moneybags (instead of political ideology) directed political actions in political parties; and it also influenced the activities of many politicians. As a result, the presidential candidates of the two major political parties (PDP and ANPP) cliched their party tickets by stuffing the car boots, so to say, of their party delegates with Ghana-Must- Go bags. This frustrated and intimidated their political opponents within (and those in the other minor political parties). Since after his defeat by Chief Olusegun Obasanjo in the 2003 PDP primary in Abuja, Dr.

  • Biafran War (July 6, 1967- January 15, 1970)
    MADMUN XI Biafra Cabinet The Nigerian Civil War— Biafran War (July 6, 1967- January 15, 1970) History: How It All Began. The colonization of African nations by imperialist European nations is no new history. By the 1900s, much of Africa had been colonized by seven nations: Britain, France, Germany, Belgium, Spain, Portugal, and Italy. Britain, though centered in the Southern and Eastern regions of Africa had taken into liking the vast resources and land the soon to be Nigeria had. In 1914, through the efforts of Sir Frederick Lurgard, the northern and southern protectorates were combined and named Nigeria with Lagos as its capital. Named by Lurgard’s wife, Flora Shaw, the name Nigeria pays homage to the discovery of the River Niger. While the British commemorated this new nation, they disregarded the difference in customs, values and policies of these two regions. The effects of their ignorance factored into play during the time of Nigeria’s Independence on October 1, 1960. Nigeria, though made up of over 50+ entities, consisted mainly of the Igbo who made up 70% of the population in the South-East; the Yoruba who made up 75% of the South-West; and the Hausa-Fulani who made up 65% in the Northern part of Nigeria. With differences in cultural, social, and regional demographics, these ethnicities set out to live different lives in their respective regions: The Yoruba were ruled by the Obas (leaders stemming from the Benin Kingdom) who gave way for social mobility.

Mohammed1, I.J. Musa2 D.N. Jeb3 1 Department of Geography Bayero University, Kano 2 Department of Geography Ahmadu Bello University. Zaria 3 National Centre for Remote Sensing, Jos ABSTRACT: This paper analysed the location of filling stations in Kano Metropolis against the physical planning standards set by Department of Petroleum Resource, DPR (2007) and Kano Urban Planning and Development Agency, KNUPDA (2013). Names and street addresses of the filling stations were obtained from the Department Petroleum Resource (DPR) Kano Office. Global positioning System Garmin 76X GPS was used to capture the location of the filling station. The quickbird imagery, street map, and boundary map were obtained from the Kano State Ministry of Land and Physical planning. The data were imported to Arcmap environment of ArcGIS 10, integrated and georefrenced to the same coordinate system. All the analyses were performed in the Arcmap environment using spatial statistics, spatial analyst and proximity tools available in the software. The findings revealed that there 214 filling station located along the 43 roads in the study area, of which 69% are owned by independent marketers, 26% owned by Major Marketers and 5% owned by the NNPC.
