Falola In this dissertation, I argue that historians of Africa have overlooked the intersection between nationalism and sexuality, despite the fact that these two themes are related. In addition, instead of focusing on the now stale paradigm which emphasizes the importance of race and class in the discourse of sexuality, I offer a revisionist idea that stresses the importance of age. Hence, I contend that the contrast between underage and adult sexuality largely informed the pattern of reformist condemnation of casual sex work in colonial Lagos. A clash between tradition (crudely defined as African traditional customs, values and ethos) and modernity (the so-called ideals of “modernization” and “civilization” imported by the British colonialists) was inevitable as the reformists vied to establish favorable legislation and combated laws that threatened their belief system and practices. What is more, debates around prostitution went beyond casual sex work to involve more complex matters such as the protection of soldiers, marriage, and cultural nationalism; the place and role of women and children in African society; and African or v colonialist conception of morality/immorality. Because of the complex nature of the politics of sex in colonial Nigeria, it was effectively impossible to reach common ground on dealing with the alleged medical and social nuisance caused by prostitutes. Indeed, while the ostensible subject of the popular debate was “prostitution,” the issues contested concurred with cultural nationalism and the protection of individual and group interests. Prostitution became a camouflage for negotiating issues that threatened the social, political, and sexual ideologies and orientation of a wide range of people—Africans and Europeans alike. vi Table of

Adetokunbo Ademola of the Lagos magistrate court sentenced Lady Welfare Officer Ayodele Potts –Johnson and Joel Toviho to six months in prison (each without the option of fine) for demanding and receiving a bribe of £5:30 from two prostitutes, Elizabeth Agadagwu and Alice George, in order not to repatriate them from brothels located at Nos. 80 & 82 Idoluwo Street, Lagos.1 FRA Williams, noted in a 1945 directory of prominent Lagosians as “an influential politician and Barrister-at- law of good standing,” led four other African and European attorneys in defending Potts- Johnson who pleaded guilty to extortion, but not the charges of official corruption.2 May and June 1947 appeals at the Supreme Court of Nigeria and West African Court of Appeal (WACA), the apex court in British West Africa, respectively, upheld the ruling of the lower court on the ground that the convicts were guilty of corruption not extortion,3 as Potts-Johnson’s counsels and supporters which comprised “privileged persons many of whom are friends, co-workers and relatives”4 maintained. Few cases of this character 1 Ademola was an Egba prince who would later become the first Chief Justice of Nigeria. While Johnson was a supervising officer attached to the Colony Welfare Office, Joel Toviho was an ex-soldier, described variously as Potts-Johnson’s tout and cousin. See The Daily Service, “Lady Welfare Officer Potts-Johnson and tout gets 6 months each: Eager Crowds Fill Court Precincts,” February 18, 1947, 1. 2 Williams would later in life become the first Senior Advocate of Nigeria. The other four attorneys were E.A. Akerele, J.A. Kester, N.O.A. Morgan and V.O. Munis. See The Daily Service, “5 Lawyers Appear for Mrs. Ayo Potts Johnson in Corruption Case” January 21, 1947, 3 and 4. 3 “Selected Judgments of the West African Court of Appeal, 1946/1949, vol. XII, Compiled by The Hon. Mr. Justice Abott,” (Published by the Grown Agents for Oversea Governments and Administration), 198-201. 4 The Daily Service, “Lady Welfare Officer Lodges Appeal against Conviction for Corruption: Decision is Reserved by Judge,” May 17, 1947, 3. 1 lasted more than a single trial at the magistrate court, and fewer still received appeals both at the Supreme Court and WACA. Throughout the trial, “the court premises were packed full with spectators.”5 Besides the involvement of prominent legal officers, Lagos elites and front page newspaper coverage (The Daily Service christened the trial “sensational celebrated official corruption”), Potts-Johnson’s trial proved important for a number of

Arshad Institute of Social Sciences Dr. B.R.Ambedkar University Agra, India Abstract Prostitution is a trade as old as mankind is a worldwide phenomenon that is not unique to any specific time. However, its level of prevalence in society and peoples attitude towards it varied according to socio-cultural, economic and political conditions. Some scholars think that prostitution is a necessary social evil because it protects innocent girls and women against rape and the men can have another outlet for sexual relief(Rattanwanaship,1991).others think that prostitution is not only a question related to morality but is also associated with other serious issues of alcohol, drug and crime. Secondly, in contemporary times, it may pose a serious threat to public health because of HIV/AIDS spread. Thirdly, it undermines the institution of marriage and family. Introduction: overall impact of the rehabilitation efforts carried Prostitution is perceived as a serious threat out by different governmental and non- for women and children.

Research objectives included: exploring incident characteristics, comparing incidents to national violent crime statistics; and identifying common themes. Results show that police impersonation incidents, offenders, and victims are unique, particularly when compared to national data.

  • Violence Against Women in Africa: a Situational Analysis
    United Nations Economic Commission for Africa African Centre for Gender and Social Development (ACGSD) VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN IN AFRICA: A SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS Table of Contents Background Methodology Common Abbreviations Situation Analysis of Africa Algeria Angola Benin Botswana Burkina Faso Burundi Cameroon Cape Verde Central African Republic Chad Comoros Congo Cote D’Ivoire Djibouti Democratic Republic of Congo Egypt Equatorial Guinea Eritrea Ethiopia Gabon Gambia Ghana Guinea Bissau Guinea Kenya Lesotho Liberia Libya Madagascar Malawi Mali Mauritania Mauritius Morocco Mozambique Namibia Niger Nigeria Rwanda Sao Tome and Principe Senegal Seychelles Sierra Leone Somalia South Africa Sudan Swaziland Tanzania Togo Tunisia Uganda Zambia Zimbabwe Background Violence against women is perhaps the most widespread and socially tolerated of human rights violations, cutting across borders, race, class, ethnicity and religion. The impact of gender-based violence (GBV) is devastating. The individual women who are victims of such violence often experience life-long emotional distress, mental health problems and poor reproductive health, as well as being at higher risk of acquiring HIV and intensive long-term users of health services. In addition, the cost to women, their children, families and communities is a significant obstacle to reducing poverty, achieving gender equality and ensuring a peaceful transition for post-conflict societies. This, in conjunction with the mental and physical health implications of gender-based violence, impacts on a state or region’s ability to develop and construct a stable, productive society, or reconstruct a country in the wake of conflict. Gender-based violence in Africa, as elsewhere in the world, is a complex issue that has as its root the structural inequalities between men and women that result in the persistence of power differentials between the sexes.
