Nigeria's Economic and Investment Agenda
Draft Report On the 17 th Nigerian Economic Summit 1 Introduction The Seventeenth Nigerian Economic Summit (NES#17) was held between November 10th and 12th, 2011 at the Transcorp Hilton Hotel, Abuja. The Summit with the theme: “ Attracting Foreign Direct Investments through Global Partnerships ” was a remarkable departure from previous summits which had focused on public private partnerships for Nigeria’s economic growth and development. It was an historic event: First, it coincided with Nigeria’s 51 st independence anniversary and the first of its kind since the inception of President Goodluck Jonathan’s Administration. It was also organized at a time of high public expectations on the need to deliberately stimulate growth that will translate to visible national development. The Summit was declared opened by President Goodluck Jonathan. It was structured to include six plenary sessions, two parallel sessions, a presidential debate and a regulators’ forum. It was attended by 1,552 delegates made up of company executives and policy level participants, including members of the diplomatic corps and foreign delegates. Public sector participants numbered 346 compared to the 293 recorded at NES#16. Discussions at the event centered on the theme and Nigeria’s economic progress, including challenges and opportunities posed by the current national and international socio-economic circumstances, and emphasized the need to sustain public private sectors’ collaborations as a way forward to achieving the National Vision 2020 (NV20:2020) through increased and sustainable global partnerships. Thus, 60 per cent of the resource persons at the Seventeenth Nigerian Economic Summit were acclaimed CEOs; foreign participation was enhanced to the highest yet (100) since the inception of the summit. -

Crise Et Développement La Région Du Lac Tchad À L’Épreuve De Boko Haram Crise Et Développement
Crise et développement La région du lac Tchad à l’épreuve de Boko Haram Crise et développement À partir de 2009, l’insécurité liée à l’insurrection du groupe Boko Haram et à sa répression s’est diffusée depuis le cœur du Borno nigérian vers tout le nord-est du pays puis vers les zones frontalières des pays voisins, Cameroun, Niger et Tchad. La crise a affecté progressivement La région du lac Tchad toute la région du lac Tchad, un des grands espaces transfrontaliers de l’Afrique sahélienne, à la charnière de l’Afrique des savanes et du désert, de l’Afrique de l’Ouest et de l’Afrique à l’épreuve de Boko Haram centrale et orientale. Cette étude est la première à aborder la crise Boko Haram à partir d’une perspective transcendant les frontières politiques et linguistiques entre le Nigeria anglophone et les trois pays francophones riverains du lac Tchad. Réalisée par une équipe pluridisciplinaire d’une quinzaine de chercheurs français, britannique, camerounais, nigériens, nigérians et tchadiens, elle considère la région du lac Tchad comme un système. Ses composantes et leurs interactions environnementales, économiques et politiques sont appréhendées depuis une perspective diachronique avant, pendant et après le pic de violence. L’analyse débouche sur une réflexion prospective à 20 ans. À partir du constat que la crise a ébranlé le système de relations qui faisait la résilience de la région du lac Tchad, cette étude de référence vise à éclairer les choix cruciaux qui définiront sa trajectoire de développement à venir.

Department Of Political Science, Enugu State University Of Science And Technology, Nigeria. ABSTRACT:-This research determined whether the application of the federal character principle in solving ethnic tension, national question and inequitable distribution of political power possesses the potentials for achieving national integration which is the prerequisite for economic development. Most of the information in this research was based on the secondary source of data collection. Since independence in 1960, Nigeria has been plagued by ethnic tension and political conflicts which have taken the toll of unity and stability in Nigeria. Various solutions, ranging from the adoption of unitary system, federalism to the creation of states, have been proffered and implemented to the creation of states, proffered and implemented, but the problem has persisted. The adoption of federal character principle in Nigeria is to hold the federating units firm. This research also traced the history of amalgamation and evolution of Nigeria as one political unit. It also analyzed and examined the adoption of the Federal Character Principle as a solution to the problem of ethnic tensions arising from inequitable distribution of political power and posts, its relevance to the solution on ethnic tensions and marginalization. Keywords:- National integration, amalgamation, economic development, political power and ethnic tension. I. INTRODUCTION The concept of federal character is a device through which every section of a nation would take part in the decision making process. -
The Making of the President's Cabinet in Nigeria: a Reflection of the Olusegun Obasanjo's and Goodluck
Democracy and the Making of the President’s Cabinet in Nigeria: A Reflection of the Olusegun Obasanjo’s and Goodluck Jonathan’s Cabinets Tunde Adeniran Tunde Ajayi ABSTRACT The Presidency, especially in Federal systems, holds peculiar and haunting fascination for scholars in their attempts to diagnose the workings of modern governments. The increasing powers of the Presidency, the recurrent debates over their use or abuse and the continuous interrogation of the extent of the legitimate use of such powers, invariably compel attention to the study of the Presidency. In Nigeria, a critical inquiry that goes beyond the surface seems to be long overdue and an appraisal of the making of a Presidential cabinet appears a vital part of the advancement of knowledge in this regard. Thus, this study is a review of democracy and the making of the presidential cabinet in Nigeria with a reflection of the Olusegun Obasanjo’s and the Goodluck Jonathan’s Cabinets. The aims are (i) to investigate the role of the President as crisis manager when a nation faces serious internal security challenges; (ii) to appraise the President’s role as manager of the economy – especially when fiscal and monetary policies are set in the context of double – digit inflation and severe economic dislocations; and (iii) to assess the interactions between the President, the Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) and the National Assembly. The study reveals among many others that for the President to be effective he needs a cabinet that fully understands what he wants to achieve, the way he wants to go about it and the time he wants to achieve it. -
