    Nigerian Journal of Rural Sociology Vol. 16, No. 3, 2016 RELEVANCE OF INDIGENOUS INSTITUTIONS IN CONFLICT RESOLUTION AND SUSTAINABLE LAND USE MANAGEMENT AMONG SETTLED FULANI AGRO-PASTORAL COMMUNITIES OF OGUN STATE, NIGERIA David, O. A. Department of General Studies, School of Communication & Information Technology, Moshood Abiola Polytechnic Ojeere, Abeokuta, Ogun state Correspondent contact details: [email protected] ABSTRACT There is a need to bring to fore the contribution of indigenous institutions in promoting peace building, fostering co-operation and collaboration among settled Fulani Agro-pastoralists in communities of Ogun State, Nigeria. The leadership institutions in pastoral communities were found to be involved in the process of investigating and resolving conflict as well as making authoritative decisions in respect of land access and sustainable use of natural resources management. Sustainable access to land resources and use for cattle and crop production in pastoral communities is dependent on the prevalence of strong local institutions for collective action (co- operation and collaboration). Purposive sampling technique was used to select 435 respondents. Data were collected using semi-structured Interview Guide. Fulani respondents maintained that some of the challenges facing them were loose collaboration/contradiction between statutory and indigenous institutions, intrusion of migratory pastoralists ( Bororo ), illegal entry of new herders, lack of policy support by government to settle conflict between Fulani

    International Journal on New Trends in Education and Their Implications April, May, June 2011 Volume: 2 Issue: 2 Article: 4 ISSN 1309-6249 UNIVERSAL BASIC EDUCATION (UBE) POLICY IMPLEMENTATION IN FACILITIES PROVISION: Ogun State as a Case Study Prof. Dr. Kayode AJAYI Dr. Muyiwa ADEYEMI Faculty of Education Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ago-Iwoye, NIGERIA ABSTRACT The Universal Basic Education Programme (UBE) which encompasses primary and junior secondary education for all children (covering the first nine years of schooling), nomadic education and literacy and non-formal education in Nigeria have adopted the “collaborative/partnership approach”. In Ogun State, the UBE Act was passed into law in 2005 after that of the Federal government in 2004, hence, the demonstration of the intention to make the UBE free, compulsory and universal. The aspects of the policy which is capital intensive require the government to provide adequately for basic education in the area of organization, funding, staff development, facilities, among others. With the commencement of the scheme in 1999/2000 until-date, Ogun State, especially in the area of facility provision, has joined in the collaborative effort with the Federal government through counter-part funding to provide some facilities to schools in the State, especially at the Primary level. These facilities include textbooks (in core subjects’ areas- Mathematics, English, Social Studies and Primary Science), blocks of classrooms, furniture, laboratories/library, teachers, etc. This study attempts to assess the level of articulation by the Ogun State Government of its UBE policy within the general framework of the scheme in providing facilities to schools at the primary level.

  • Cultural Festival in Ezinihitte Mbaise, Imo State
    Kola Nut (Oji) Cultural Festival in Ezinihitte Mbaise, Imo State N.C. Ihediwa, V. Nwashindu, and C.M. Onah Department of History and International Studies University of Nigeria, Nsukka Abstract The common saying in Igboland is that every other culture group in Nigeria eats kola nuts, but it is only in Igboland that kola nut oji is not only eaten, but also celebrated. This position is true of the Igbo who do not cultivate kola nuts in abundance as a commercial venture like the Yoruba, but have deep reverence for the fruits because of its significance in the Igbo worldview. The Igbo do not eat this fruit like other groups in Nigeria, who essentially eat it for its sedative qualities as well as a hunger therapy, or who use it because of its role as stimulant and aspirin, nicotine and caffeine put together. The social significance of this fruit has lifted it from a mere unprofitable luxury to a vital necessity in the social and cultural settings of the Igbo, particularly the Ezinihitte Mbaise group in Imo State. Here kola nut cultural festival is celebrated annually and on rotation amongst the sixteen communities that make up the local government council area. The Oji Ezinihitte Mbaise cultural festival is not only an occasion for the communities to examine their progress and challenges, but also one for attracting visitors, friends and well-wishers from far and near to be part of a cultural fiesta that entertains guests to their souls. It is also used as a medium to attract government in their developmental projects as well as brain storm on other possibilities.

Akachi Odoemene University of Ibadan 07-11/12/2008 Yaoundé, Cameroun Abstract The month of August of every year witnesses an ‘in-migration’ marked by massive home- coming from different Nigerian towns and cities of ‘Igbo women’ groups to their marital rural hometowns, where they unite with their colleagues in the rural settings for what could best be termed a ‘congress’. The meetings take place in all parts of Igboland and in the same month. “August Meeting” is often geared towards community development, but has of recent been involved in conflict management and peace-building in rural societies – all hitherto public sphere domains exclusive to the men-folk, particularly among the Igbo. The “August Meeting” among Igbo women has a critical mandate in the political affairs of respective Igbo communities, and represents the socio-cultural, political and economic development initiative of women within the public sphere. But, how truly participatory has the “August Meeting” been? And, to what extent has it been empowering to the womenfolk? This study articulates the idea of the public sphere within the Igbo/Nigerian context and develops a comprehensive analysis and view of the agency of women’s participation therein, by focusing on their grassroots initiatives and the crucial roles they play in societal development. It further re- constructs the history of “August Meeting” among the Igbo, with a view to throwing light on its structure, functions and modus operandi and examines the nexus between the public sphere and the agency of women with particular reference to this August women’s meeting.
