E-mail: [email protected] and [email protected] Abstract: The objective of this paper is to examines the intrigues, power play and accusations surrounding the National Assembly budgetary allocations between 1999 and 2016.This is because since it was inaugurated in June 1999, the Legislature of Nigeria’s Fourth Republic has been roundly defined as an enigmatic one, due to the many twists and turns which accompanied its leadership and membership. It is no longer news that Nigerian legislators are the highest paid lawmakers in the world. When this fact was first revealed a few years ago, the federal lawmakers tried to justify the jumbo pay package without any success. The data for this study was generated from Focus Group Discussion and documentary sources which include books, journals and online materials. The technique of content analysis constituted our data analysis technique. Among the conclusion drawn is for Nigeria to return to the core argument that by paying excessively high salaries and emoluments to top public officials; in particular, permanent secretaries, ministers and legislators, we are mortgaging the rights of our people to development.

  • We're Taking Africa to the World
    “We’re Taking Africa to the World”: Commercial Self- fashioning as a Vehicle for Collective Aspirations in the 21st Century JAANA SERRES “It’s finally cool to be an ‘African’” (Kaumbutho). This 2017 blog post by Kenyan poet Kimathi Kaumbutho echoed the performative claims heard throughout the African middle class in the wake of the changing narrative about “Africa,” from “The hopeless continent” (The Economist 2000) to “Africa rising” (The Economist 2011). Elements and signs of “Africanness” have indeed been increasingly featured in “global” popular culture, from clothing lines to films, and even the practice of capitalism is rebranded with “African traditional principles” through the Africapitalist and Ubuntu “economic philosophies.” But as suggested by Kaumbutho’s list of achievements “Africans can take pride in,” one cultural medium has proven particularly instrumental to this new wave of positive identification with “Africa”: Nigerian music. As Nigeria was arguably entering a post-oil era in the 2010s (Burns and Owen), its renewed popular music industry benefitted from the development of digital technology and the expression of corporate interest by telecom companies, retail brands, and foreign-educated young professionals, making it an exemplary manifestation of a new pan-Africanism founded on neoliberal aspirations (Shipley Living the Hiplife). Global professional services firm PwC announced that total revenue for Nigeria’s entertainment and media industry was expected to grow to US$8.1 billion in 2019, calling it the “fastest-expanding major market globally” (Oxford Business Group). However, only a very small share of this revenue occurs from the actual sale of cultural products (PwC 22).

  • Impact of Chinese Investments on Trade Development: Nigeria in Perspective
    International Journal of Business Systems and Economics ISSN: 2360-9923, Volume 12, Issue 2, (February, 2019) pages 94 - 102 www.arcnjournals.org International Journal of Business Systems and Economics Impact of Chinese Investments on Trade Development: Nigeria in Perspective Agadah Mienpre1 and B. Chima Onuoha2 1Doctoral Candidate, Department of Management, University of Port Harcourt | Email: [email protected] 2Professor of Management, Department of Management, University of Port Harcourt | Email: [email protected] Abstract: This paper inspects the Impact of Chinese Investment on Trade Development in Nigeria. The engagement among Nigeria and China depends more on economic ties, trade, investment and finance than on political affinity. There has been some evidence that Nigeria had made positive upgrades which have been profoundly appealing to overseas investors, especially the Chinese investors. For this to continue, it was recommended that Nigeria’s priority should be to build up the ability to better its own policies towards China’s engagement and also see China’s engagement gives it an opportunity to expand its trade. Keywords: Nigeria, China, Trade and Investment, Lagos, Kano INTRODUCTION Over the previous decades the volume of exchange between countries of the globe has considerably increased. Especially, Nigeria has seen a sharp ascent in trade and investment with other countries. The relations among Nigeria and the people’s republic of China, which cuts across trade, investment, political aid and military spheres have tremendously grown in recent years (Omoju and Adesanya, 2012). China’s first contact with Nigeria, unofficially, started in the 1950s, precisely 1957. Nigeria’s contact with China was through Egypt.
