Jalabi Practice: a Critical Appraisal of a Socio-Religious Phenomenon in Yorubaland, Nigeria
ISSN 2411-9563 (Print) European Journal of Social Sciences September-December 2015 ISSN 2312-8429 (Online) Education and Research Volume 2, Issue 4 Jalabi Practice: a Critical Appraisal of a Socio-Religious Phenomenon in Yorubaland, Nigeria Dr. Afiz Oladimeji Musa [email protected] International Islamic University Malaysia Prof. Dr. Hassan Ahmad Ibrahim [email protected] International Islamic University Malaysia Abstract Jalabi is an extant historical phenomenon with strong socio-religious impacts in Yorubaland, south-western part of Nigeria. It is among the preparatory Dawah strategies devised by the Yoruba Ulama following the general mainstream Africa to condition the minds of the indigenous people for the acceptance of Islam. This strategy is reflected in certain socio-religious services rendered to the clients, which include, but not limited to, spiritual consultation and healing, such as petitionary Dua (prayer), divination through sand-cutting, rosary selection, charm-making, and an act of officiating at various religious functions. In view of its historicity, the framework of this research paper revolves around three stages identified to have been aligned with the evolution of Jalabi, viz. Dawah, which marked its initial stage, livelihood into which it had evolved over the course of time, and which, in turn, had predisposed it to the third stage, namely syncretism. Triangulation method will be adopted for qualitative data collection, such as interviews, personal observation, and classified manuscript collections, and will be interpretively and critically analyzed to enhance the veracity of the research findings. The orality of the Yoruba culture has greatly influenced the researcher’s decision to seek data beyond the written words in order to give this long-standing phenomenon its due of study and to help understand the many dimensions it has assumed over time, as well as its both positive and adverse effects on the socio-religious live of the Yoruba people of Nigeria.

Nigeria DATA USE BRIEF Improving Initiation of Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis among Key Populations in Akwa Ibom, Cross River, and Lagos States INTRODUCTION Key populations (KP), such as sex workers and men who have sex with men, have the highest HIV prevalence in Nigeria.1 To reduce the HIV infection rate, Nigeria’s HIV program integrated the use of oral pre-exposure prophylaxis2 (PrEP) as a substantive additional measure to existing services for KP. The USAID-funded KP CARE-1 project, implemented by Heartland Alliance Nigeria, established KP one-stop shops (KP OSS) to provide oral PrEP to KPs in three states—Akwa Ibom, Cross River, and Lagos. Each KP one-stop shop was provided with yearly targets for A staffer at a community one-stop shop for key populations distribution of oral PrEP. In this brief, we describe in Nigeria provides PrEP to a client. Photo by Heartland findings from a Data.FI assessment of the work of Alliance Nigeria.

Department of Urban and Regional Planning, Federal University of Technology, Akure, Ondo State, Nigeria Correspondence mail: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract This study analyzed the effect of accommodation pressure on housing affordability in Ikeja, Lagos State. Data used for this study were obtained from both primary and secondary source. 10 wards were covered for this research and a total number of 180 questionnaires were administered in the study area using the housing stock of each ward. These questionnaires were used to obtain information on level of housing satisfaction and perception of housing affordability and effect of accommodation pressure from respondents in the study area. The study was sub-divided into four sectors to ensure accurate description of the area. Descriptive statistics were used to present independent variables in the data set.

Industrial Development and Growth in Nigeria: Lessons and Challenges
Working Paper No. 8 Industrial development and growth in Nigeria: Lessons and challenges L. N. Chete, J. O. Adeoti, F. M. Adeyinka, and O. Ogundele* Abstract The structure of the Nigerian economy is typical of an underdeveloped country. The primary sector, in particular, the oil and gas sector, dominates the gross domestic product accounting for over 95 per cent of export earnings and about 85 per cent of government revenue between 2011 and 2012. The industrial sector accounts for 6 per cent of economic activity while the manufacturing sector contributed only 4 per cent to GDP in 2011. The economic transformation agenda, otherwise known as Nigeria Vision 20: 2020, sets the direction for the current industrial policy in Nigeria. The industrialization strategy aims at achieving greater global competitiveness in the production of processed and manufactured goods by linking industrial activity with primary sector activity, domestic and foreign trade, and service activity.
