  • The Politics of Architecture and Ur-Banism In
    The Politics of Architecture and Urbanism in Postcolonial Lagos, 1960–1986 DANIEL IMMERWAHR Department of History, University of California, Berkeley This is a preprint of an article to appear in the Journal of African Cultur- al Studies 19:2 (December 2007). It will be available online at http://journalsonline.tandf.co.uk/ After independence, the Nigerian government faced a number of choices about how to manage its urban environment, particularly in Lagos, Ni- geria’s capital. By favoring a program of tropical modernist architecture for its prestige buildings in Lagos and British New Town style for its housing estates there, the government sought to demonstrate both its in- dependence from European culture and its ability to perform the func- tions of a modern state. And yet, the hopes of government officials and elites for Lagos were frustrated as Lagosians, in response to new eco- nomic and demographic forces, shaped a very different sort of city from below. The Nigerian government’s retreat to Abuja and its abandonment of Lagos mark the failures of urban policymaking in Nigeria. 1. Colonial and Postcolonial Cities In the past twenty-five years, historians have devoted a good deal of attention to the spatial aspects of colonial rule. The ―colonial city‖ has emerged as an archetype fundamentally different from the metropolitan city. Anthony King‘s pioneering work (1976, 1990) emphasized the im- portance of the world economy in determining the shape of colonial ci- ties, and a number of case studies, including those of Janet Abu-Lughod (1980), Gwendolyn Wright (1991), Anja Nevanlinna (1996), and Zeynep Çelik (1997) have further explored the consequences of colonial urban policy.

  • Rapporteur Report
    Rapporteur Report 25 – 29 August 2020 Introduction The Pan-African Creative Exchange - PACE Entangled 2020 - was held from 25 to 29 August, on digital platforms Zoom and Airmeet. Throughout the festival, over 3,040 unique viewers from at least 33 different countries attended the event. PACE is an initiative of the Vrystaat Arts Festival, a biennial arts market/provocation for the interdisciplinary arts in Africa. PACE is a platform to showcase the highest quality productions from Africa to national and international presenters, producers, buyers, artists and the general public. There are eight aspects to PACE including presenting full shows for tour-ready work; showcasing excerpts of tour-ready work; showcasing excerpts of work in progress; pitching new work; producers shadowing and exchange program; workshops and critical debate/round table sessions; networking programs; and key PACE events. PACE was developed in response to recent data indicating that the creative industries in Africa contribute less than 1% to the global creative economy. As increased access to and participation in culture can be linked to an increase in human development, Africa must shift its focus to support more innovative cultural programs that can creatively transform its society. Culture has also been embedded in several of the 2030 UN Sustainable Development Goals, to further assist cultural visibility for Africa. PACE was realized with the support of the Kingdom of the Netherlands (principal funder), PACE Founding Partners are NATI – Nasionale Afrikaanse Teater

An individual's ethnic identity helps to shape perceptions, political behavior,2 and even personal relationships.3 Prospects of a better life, such as access to modem facilities, adequate health care, and state appointments, far too often depend on an African's ethnicity.4 Fear of exclusion from power, and by extension from the nation's wealth, is genuine and remains a major impetus for aggressive ethnic identification in most African countries.5 The fear of losing control of the machinery of government to another ethnic group reinforces the * LL.B.

  • THE LEGACY and CHALLENGE of PUBLIC HOUSING PROVISION in LAGOS, NIGERIA Dr
    THE LEGACY AND CHALLENGE OF PUBLIC HOUSING PROVISION IN LAGOS, NIGERIA Dr. Adetokunbo O. ILESANMI (BSc, MSc, PhD, MNIA) Department of Architecture, Covenant University, Ota, Nigeria [email protected] +234-8058009879 Abstract This paper is based on an evaluation of public housing provision through the Lagos State Development and Property Corporation (LSDPC), which is utilized as a case study to examine and discuss the legacy and challenge of public housing provision in Lagos, Nigeria. The paper reviews the existing literature on public housing and the role of the state, including an overview of housing research in Nigeria. It describes the context of Lagos, as an emerging mega- city. It also examines housing development through the LSDPC which was established in 1972 as the government institution for public housing provision. Specific attention is given to housing during the first civilian administration (1979-1983) which emphasized low-income housing. The period represents the most dynamic in the legacy of public housing provision in Lagos State. Primary qualitative data was derived from structured interviews conducted on key officers of the corporation. Quantitative data was obtained through questionnaire administration on a systematic sample of 806 household-heads from a sampling frame of 8,060 housing units, based on a purposive sample of eight LSDPC estates. Findings indicate decreasing emphasis on low-income housing and increasing commercialization. However, the survey shows residents responding satisfactorily to the physical and social environments of their housing. The majority perceived access to their housing to be equitable and the housing density of their blocks and estates to be tolerable; and about 60 percent reported satisfaction with their estates and apartments.

  • The Role of Media in Promoting African Indigenous Languages (Case Study of Nigeria)
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 389 164 FL 023 298 AUTHOR Ogunyemi, Olatunji Isola TITLE The Role of Media in Promoting African Indigenous Languages (Case Study of Nigeria). PUB DATE Feb 95 NOTE 17p. PUB TYPE Viewpoints (Opinion/Position Papers, Essays, etc.) (120) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *African Languages; Case Studies; *Community Role; *Cultural Influences; Foreign Countries; *Indigenous Populations; *Mass Media Role; Social Influences; Uncommonly Taught Languages; Yoruba IDENTIFIERS *Nigeria ABSTRACT This report assesses the threat posed to Nigerian national culture by foreign cultural values through manipulation of the local media, stressing that the Nigerian media is not people-oriented, but rather government dominated. This study sought to prove through content-analysis the level of commitment of media in promoting and integrating traditional folk media into the modern media technology. First, the content of two newspapers, for example, "Daily Time" published in English and "Gboungboun" published in Yotuba Language. The research method of "Directional Relation Analysis" was applied. The aim of the study was to find out if the audience of either newspaper is getting a balanced information about the political and socio-economic situation in the country. A major problem is the inability to have a socially accepted language of wider communication. The report discusses how the media in Nigeria was largely influenced by the two factors: missionary activities and colonial administration. These two factors changed the pattern of information dissemination but fRiled to create a people-oriented communication system. A more ethnic- and people-oriented media is recommended to foster a feeling of collective participation in government, beginning in the rural areas and especially using radio as the community communication medium.

  • Implementation of the Nigerian Civic Education Curriculum to Develop Effective Citizenship in Young Learners: Stakeholders Perspectives
    Implementation of the Nigerian Civic Education Curriculum to develop Effective Citizenship in Young Learners: Stakeholders Perspectives A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Samuel Olayinka Idowu B.Ed., M.Ed., LL.B., B.L College of Business, Arts and Social Sciences, Department of Education, Brunel University, London November, 2015 1 Abstract Independent Nigeria is confronted with a plethora of citizenship (socio-political) issues and problems which various informal citizenship advocacy programmes have been unable to resolve. Also, sundry formal school programmes like social studies curriculum used to develop effective citizenship failed due to implementation lapses. This failure led to the severing of citizenship issues from social studies to form a new subject called civic education. Thus, this research was conducted to appraise the effective implementation of the school civic curriculum at the basic and senior secondary levels in Lagos and Ogun states, in the south-western geo-political zone of Nigeria. Three sets of stakeholders who are key civic curriculum implementers were selected as participants: twenty-nine teacher educators at colleges and universities; two hundred and ninety-eight civic teachers and five hundred and seventy learners at basic and senior secondary levels. Open and closed questionnaires and focus group discussion were administered on these participants. The study adopted an ethno-nationalistic, critical and global citizenship theoretical framework to underpin the study. This was because the issue and activity based curriculum objectives were to develop effective citizenship along nationalistic (political) citizenship with the marginal intent of developing critical/global (apolitical) citizenship. The study showed that classroom civic curriculum implementation focused more on learners' knowledge constructions with less emphasis on developing skills and dispositions due to inadequate school extracurricular programmes.
