P. Nwadinigwe and Dr. M. B. Ubangha for their encouragement. Their strict instructions and guidance led to the completion of this work. I am forever grateful to them. I appreciate my fatherly Head of Department, Professor G. C. Ilogu for his quiet but persistent encouragement and his brotherly concern for my success. I am especially thankful to Prof. (Mrs.) A. M. Olusakin, my ever smiling and tireless teacher, friend and sister for her prayers and encouragement. To my most respectable Dr. (Mrs.) O. M. Alade, I am grateful for her good counsel. Her advice gave me wisdom that brought polish to this work. Thank you. Throughout the research process, my indefatigable lecturers were available to mentor, coach and motivate me; prodding me on with such gentleness and sometimes strictness that encouraged me. I am grateful to God for providing such good people as my lecturers – Prof. (Mrs.) Osarenren, Prof. (Mrs.) Omoegun, Dr. C. E. Okoli, Dr. (Mrs.) B. Makinde, Dr. (Mrs.) I. I. Abe, Dr. S. Aletan, Dr. S. Oni and Rev. (Fr.) F. M. Isichei. I pray that God Almighty will bless you all abundantly. The non-academic staff of my department were also helpful: Mrs. Shade Adefila (for her support and good will), Mrs. Kehinde Ogunlabi (for her sisterly advice), Madam J. Sobande and their colleagues. I thank Mr. Onoka of the Department of Science & Technology Education for his expert advice during some of my presentations.

I am also grateful to Peter Nwaeke (MTN), Helen Owuasu-Akinola (MTN), Mercy Alex (Globacom) and Ekah Nsia (Visafone) for their support in their different centres. My special thanks go to all the call centre vi employees of these companies who agreed to participate in this study. It was their resilience that got the results for this study. God bless them all richly. I am sincerely grateful to my three field assistants whose competence and meticulousness aided my data collection and collation.

  • Nigeria's Public Buildings of Early Statehood: Interpreting Their
    International Journal of Social Sciences and Management Research E-ISSN 2545-5303 P-ISSN 2695 2203 Vol. 6 No. 4 2020 www.iiardpub.org Nigeria’s Public Buildings of Early Statehood: Interpreting Their Current Situation and Status Ndubisi Onwuanyi Department of Estate Management, Faculty of Environmental Sciences, University of Benin, PMB 1154, Benin City [email protected] Abstract Public buildings are communal property. Thus, the manner in which they are kept is indicative of the priorities of the owning community, society or state. This means that the recognition or value which society places on such buildings is deducible from their situation. In its first two decades of statehood, Nigeria developed public buildings which, for historical reasons, if nothing else, warrant classification and preservation as monuments. However, public commentary suggests that there has been a pervasive neglect of these buildings, possibly implying a loss of interest and memory on the part of government and citizens. In this paper, the major public buildings of that era are identified and the condition and apparent status of three selected structures are evaluated. The findings are that these buildings have mainly been in neglect and ineffectively managed; second, they are not physically identified as memorial monuments; neither are they remarked nor officially recognised as important state symbols. This leads to the inescapable conclusion that there has been a loss of interest and memory by society, particularly on the part of government. It is recommended that Nigeria recognises and discharges its obligation to manage effectively its common patrimony. Key Words: Nigeria Public buildings; Public monuments; Situation; Status; 1.0 INTRODUCTION Public buildings serve the purposes of governance and the provision of services to the governed.
