  • 179 Nigerian Pidgin: a Means of Human Development Charles Chukwuma Motanya Abstract
    Nigerian Pidgin: A Means of Human Development Charles Chukwuma Motanya http://dx.doi./org/10.4314/ujah.v18i2.10 Abstract Growth and development are the target of every human being. There are several avenues for achieving this said development and one of such means is through the development of a viable language that will aid in people’s effective communication for gains. This paper therefore explores the effective use of Nigerian Pidgin in the development of artistes in Nigeria’s entertainment industry. Data were generated from a library research. The study is based on systemic-functional grammar. The findings indicate that Nigerian Pidgin has offered many artistes the opportunity to showcase to the wider public their works. This in turn, improves their financial and social status. The research recommends that Nigerian Pidgin should be adopted and included among one of Nigeria’s official language. Introduction One of the most important differences between man and animal is man’s ability to speak and make others understand him. Language is the only means through which this is achieved in man’s life. Language is the medium or vehicle for conveying ideas, a system of arbitrary vocal symbol based on social cooperation; the totality of meaningful utterance in a given society (Yule 15). Language is a system of conventional or written symbols by means of which humans as members of a social group and participants in its culture communicates (Encyclopedia Britannica, 2002). Language determines and defines man’s humanity. 179 Motanya: Nigerian Pidgin: A Means of Human Development In Nigeria, we have three major indigenous languages that have national status.

    PRESSKITTekno 2019 Biography: The amazingly talented Tekno is a visionary African artist who has won and been nominated for several awards. He is known by many names - Kelechukwu Augustine, Augustine Miles Kelechi, Tekno, Tekno Miles, and The Golden Boy Of Africa. He is from the Ivo Local Government Area, Ebonyi State. He was born in Bauchi State into a family of five boys and one girl. He was raised in several parts of the country including Nassarawa, Kaduna and Abuja, due to the fact that his father was a member of the Nigerian Army.

Tekno was first signed under K-Money Entertainment. His first single titled "Holiday" was released under the imprint.

  • Women in Nigerian Popular Music: Empowered Or Debased?
    Global Journal of Arts Humanities and Social Sciences Vol.3, No.5, pp.35-52, May 2015 Published by European Centre for Research Training and Development UK (www.eajournals.org) WOMEN IN NIGERIAN POPULAR MUSIC: EMPOWERED OR DEBASED? Ifeoma Vivian Dunu, Ph.D. Mass Communication Department, Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, Nigeria. Gregory Obinna Ugbo, Mass Communication Department, Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, Nigeria. ABSTRACT: This study using Survey and Focus Group Discussion sought to determine what the increasingly hypersexualised portrayals of women in popular music portend to the young Nigerian women through a critical analysis of Flavour’s musical lyrics. The result of the study shows the disparity and ambivalence in women’s perceptions of gender representations in popular culture. Their perceptions were diametrically polarized along the divides of healthy sexualized self-expression resulting in empowerment and co-optation to perform resulting in exploitation and debasement. We conclude by observing that women's disposition and interpretation to popular music seems to be largely contingent upon diverse complex interacting factors hence women resentments in the face of offensive portrayals are subsumed in these ideological cultural productions thereby presenting them as accomplices in their own debasement through their relishing of the music. KEYWORDS: Nigerian Popular Music; Women’s Perception; Empowerment; Debasement INTRODUCTION The prevalence of hypersexualised representations and negative images of women presented in popular music, which are closely linked to cultural views of masculinity seem in recent times to have become dominant and magnified in Nigerian's popular musical lyrics- the modern hip-hop afro beat, with the special blend of English and local dialect.

  • Appraise the Use of Music in the Wedding Party Movie
    AN APPRAISAL OF THE USE OF MUSIC IN THE WEDDING PARTY MOVIE BY JOSEPH, VICTOR MATRIC NUMBER:14/3082 SUBMITTED TO: THE DEPARTMENT OF MUSIC AND CREATIVE ARTS SCHOOL OF EDUCATION AND HUMANITIES IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE AWARD OF BACHELOR OF ARTS IN MUSIC OF BABCOCK UNIVERSITY, ILISHAN-REMO, OGUN STATE, NIGERIA SUPERVISOR: PROF. MICHAEL O. OLATUNJI APRIL, 2017 1 CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1. Background to the Study "Wait a minute! You ain't heard nothing yet!” – Al Jolson (ReelRunDown, 2016). Those were the first words spoken on film; the first words of the 1927 feature film, “The Jazz Singer”. However, music had long already made its appearance in the movie theatres; “a paid pianist was present to perform at the Lumiere brother's first film screening in 1895” (Wierzbicki, 2009, p. 20). This tradition continued through the early silent films (comedies or expressionist), which had live music played mainly through improvisation with the aid of cue sheets, at each showing of the film (ReelRunDown, 2016). From the movie King Kong in 1933, which was the first movie to have a comprehensive scoring throughout the whole plot, till date, music has proven to be an indispensable tool in the art of film production, such that it is difficult to believe that film music "began not as a result of any artistic urge, but from a dire need of something which would drown the noise made by the projector” (London, 1936). And little wonder because, music, when properly utilized can serve several purposes including establishing: (i) Mood, emotion
