  • Imperialism and the 1999 Women's World Cup
    IMPERIALISM AND THE 1999 WOMEN’S WORLD CUP: REPRESENTATIONS OF THE UNITED STATES AND NIGERIAN NATIONAL TEAMS IN THE U.S. MEDIA by Michele Canning A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of The Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, Florida April 2009 Copyright by Michele Canning 2009 ii ABSTRACT Author: Michele Canning Title: Imperialism and the 1999 Women’s World Cup: Representations of the United States and Nigerian National Teams in the U.S. Media Institution: Florida Atlantic University Thesis Advisor: Dr. Josephine-Beoku-Betts Degree: Master of Arts Year: 2009 This research examines the U.S. media during the 1999 Women’s World Cup from a feminist postcolonial standpoint. This research adds to current feminist scholarship on women and sports by de-centering the global North in its discourse. It reveals the bias of the media through the representation of the United States National Team as a universal “woman” athlete and the standard for international women’s soccer. It further argues that, as a result, the Nigerian National Team was cast in simplistic stereotypes of race, class, ethnicity, and nation, which were often also appropriated and commodified. I emphasize that the Nigerian National Team resisted this construction and fought to secure their position in the global soccer landscape. I conclude that these biased representations, which did not fairly depict or value the contributions of diverse competing teams, were primarily employed to promote and sell the event to a predominantly white middle-class American audience.

  • Death and the Textile Industry in Nigeria
    Death and the Textile Industry in Nigeria Elisha P. Renne First published in 2021 ISBN: 978-0-367-46552-0 (hbk) ISBN: 978-1-003-05813-7 (ebk) Conclusion Death, deindustrialization, and time (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0) This OA chapter is funded by Elisha P. Renne. Conclusion Death, deindustrialization, and time “We felt that society was dragging anchor and in danger of going adrift. Whether it would drift nobody could say, but all feared the rocks.” Edward Bellamy, Looking Backward, 2000–1887 This volume focuses on the consequences of deindustrialization on the lives of former factory workers at the Kaduna Textile Ltd (KTL) mill in the Kakuri area of Kaduna and the “work of the dead” in ameliorating these changes. As such it addresses the question, “How is deindustrialization experienced dif- ferently by people in varied places, times, and circumstances?” (Cowie and Heathcott 2003: 5). As many of the workers at KTL came from rural towns and villages to the south of the city of Kaduna, their experience reflects many changes: from rural to urban living, from agricultural to industrial labor, and to new conceptions of time and work. Their experience has been complicated by the failure of the government to pay negotiated remittances owed to KTL workers following the company’s closure, which was not the case for most other Kaduna textile mills. Consequently, KTL workers, as members of the National Union of Textile Garment and Tailoring Workers of Nigeria, sought to pressure the company to release these funds in order to ease the difficulties of finding alternative sources of income and of paying for food and health care as well as supporting their families.

  • Your Excellency May Recall That You Wrote Series of Memos to President
    Your Excellency may recall that you wrote series of Memos to President Muhammadu Buhari as the leader of the Country and our great Party, the All Progressive Congress (APC) which was leaked to the Public of very recent, in those Memos, you expressed your concerns in the handling of affairs of the Nation by the Buhari led Administration. Your message was received with mixed reactions by Nigerians, some called that action an uncommon courage by you, in the same light, some of us have been worried about the way our State has been handled since you assumed office and it is said that “Charity begins at Home”, most of the concerns raised in your Memo are actually the very same concerns that some if not most Stake-holders in Kaduna has over your leadership. While I would not write a long Memo like yours but permit me to raise few of those concerns here. We are approaching the Mid-term of your Administration as the Executive Governor of APC Controlled Government of Kaduna State. The Party is Docile in its statutory duties and activities as a Political Party, No Executive Committee and Stakeholders Meetings from the Ward to State Levels is virtually non-existent since you took control of the State. Most Stakeholders and members are feeling Used and Dumped and Lack of consultations in decision-making processes as it affects the Party at the Local, State and National Levels. The Party at the State Levels needs to be properly constituted, and Vacancies filled as Urgent, including the Kaduna state vacant seat of the National officer in the APC NWC through Special Congresses before the National Conventions.

  • The Jonathan Presidency, by Abati, the Guardian, Dec. 17
    The Jonathan Presidency By Reuben Abati Published by The Jonathan Presidency The Jonathan Presidency By Reuben Abati A review of the Goodluck Jonathan Presidency in Nigeria should provide significant insight into both his story and the larger Nigerian narrative. We consider this to be a necessary exercise as the country prepares for the next general elections and the Jonathan Presidency faces the certain fate of becoming lame-duck earlier than anticipated. The general impression about President Jonathan among Nigerians is that he is as his name suggests, a product of sheer luck. They say this because here is a President whose story as a politician began in 1998, and who within the space of ten years appears to have made the fastest stride from zero to “stardom” in Nigerian political history. Jonathan himself has had cause to declare that he is from a relatively unknown village called Otuoke in Bayelsa state; he claims he did not have shoes to wear to school, one of those children who ate rice only at Xmas. When his father died in February 2008, it was probably the first time that Otuoke would play host to the kind of quality crowd that showed up in the community. The beauty of the Jonathan story is to be found in its inspirational value, namely that the Nigerian dream could still take on the shape of phenomenal and transformational social mobility in spite of all the inequities in the land. With Jonathan’s emergence as the occupier of the highest office in the land, many Nigerians who had ordinarily given up on the country and the future felt imbued with renewed energy and hope.

Yet, a pre-season tournament in 2008 featuring the two glamour soccer clubs of South Africa, Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates, and the global brand of Manchester United, revealed a racially fractured soccer fandom that contradicted these notions of national unity through soccer.

    COVERAGE OF CORRUPTION SCANDALS IN THE NIGERIAN PRESS: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF NORTHERN AND SOUTHERN NEWSPAPERS BY MUHAMMAD JAMEEL YUSHA'U (050211416) A THESIS FORUM DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY SUBMITTED TO THE DEPARTMENT OF JOURNALISM STUDIES UNIVERSITY OF SHEFFIELD UNITED KINGDOM % DECEMBER, 2009 ABSTRACT This research is about the coverage of corruption scandals in the Nigerian press. It is a comparative study that develops an intra-national framework for the study of the Nigerian media system using corruption scandals.The scandalsstudied are the Petroleum Technology DevelopmentFund (PTDF) scandaland the Former Governors Scandal. The study used both interviews and qualitative content analysis by meansof critical discourseanalysis. The results of the study suggest that the press in Nigeria is regionally and ethnically divided. These factors influence the way the pressreport issuesincluding corruption scandals.The study also suggeststhat factors like clientelism, regionalism, corruption within the press, and lack of training are among the challenges faced by the Nigerian press. It is the position of this study that the press in Nigeria is active in reporting stories about corruption scandals,but has not done enough when it comes to the application of such aspects of journalistic practice like investigative journalism which contributes in the watchdog role of the media. The study concludesby suggestingareas for further research. 2 DEDICATION This thesis is dedicatedto my parents: Malam Yusha'u Yusuf Abdurra'uf & Hajiya Sa'adatu AnasYusha'u And my beloved wife Hauwa Sarkina Shehu Daughter Asma Thank you all for your genuine love and support 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am grateful to Almighty Allah for giving me the opportunity to see the conclusion of this work.
