57 Ordinary Readers' Hermeneutics of Matthew 21:33-46
Journal of Arts and Contemporary Society ISSN: 2277-0046 Volume 6, Number 2, 2014 Ordinary Readers' Hermeneutics of Matthew 21:33-46: An Interplay between Violence and Greed in Modern Nigeria John Arierhi Ottuh Lecturer at Nehemiah Bible College, Okwokoko and Vicar, Winners Baptist Church, Effurun, Delta State E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract Violence due to greed and ethno-religious dichotomy is dividing Nigeria more than ever before. Therefore, using the ordinary readers hermeneutics methodology to read Matthew 21:33-46, this paper showed that the periscope was a critique of violence and intrigue resulting from Greed, hatred, bitterness and selfishness, the aim of this paper was to examine the interplay between violence and greed in Nigeria. The paper also showed that a great relationship exists between ethnicity and violence in Nigeria. This paper argued that the Greed associated with selfish and cooperate individuals is dangerous to inter- human relationship in the society and as such it is capable of disintegrating the church and the Nigerian nation in general. The study was concluded on the presupposition that those who allow their ethno-religious divides and greed to drive them in perpetrating violence in the Nigerian society will provoke the wrath of God and human society. Key Words: Ordinary Readers, Hermeneutics, Violence Introduction The world is a puzzle but the puzzle of all puzzles is man. Nothing that shows this nature of man more than his behaviour, which is full of contradictions. He loves and as well hates, builds and as well destroys, gathers and as well scatters, purifies and as well corrupts, refines and as well defiles, praises and as well condemns, etc, in his bid to make one thing or the other out of his wealthy- wretched existence.

Key Note Address by Dr Dalhatu Sarki Tafida, Ofr
KEY NOTE ADDRESS BY DR DALHATU SARKI TAFIDA, OFR, NIGERIA HIGH COMMISSIONER TO THE UNITED KINGDOM AT THE CONFERENCE ON PREVENTING ABUSE OF THE NIGERIAN CHILD TODAY BRUNEI GALLERY, SCHOOL OF ORIENTAL AND AFRICAN STUDIES, RUSSELL SQUARE, LONDON, 30 MAY 2009 Your Excellency, Obong Barrister Godswill Akpabio Governor of Akwa Ibo State Baroness Morgan, Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Children, Young People and Families Engineer Enenwan Ebong President of Mboho Akwa Ibom Association in the UK and Ireland and Executive Council Members of the Association Gary Foxcroft, Programme Director, Stepping Stones Nigeria Distinguished Ladies and Gentlemen, I am delighted to be at this platform as a great opportunity to exchange views on children rights and protection in Nigeria, showcase Nigeria’s record in this regard and deliberate on additional measures that need to be taken to advance the rights and welfare of the Nigerian Child. Like everyone who watched the BBC Channel 4 documentary on Saving Africa’s Witch Children when it was first broadcast on 12 November 2008, I was horrified at the sight of children being tortured, dehumanised and traumatised by their captors under the guise of exorcising witchcraft from their innocent souls. Some of them have already been killed. The gory scenes shown in the documentary were rightly met with universal condemnation; having pitched the conscience of the world. In reacting to this documentary, my Mission proceeded to send a quick rejoinder, stating, unequivocally, its abhorrence of what was depicted in the programme. Rather than denying that such cultural practices and human rights violations of children exist in one form or the other various parts of Nigeria, the Mission sought to put the documentary in the proper 2 context of ignorance, mass illiteracy, cultural practices, belief systems, poverty and lack of enforcement of existing laws.

This includes whether claims are likely to justify the granting of asylum, humanitarian protection or discretionary leave and whether – in the event of a claim being refused – it is likely to be certifiable as ‘clearly unfounded’ under s94 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002. Decision makers must consider claims on an individual basis, taking into account the case specific facts and all relevant evidence, including: the guidance contained with this document; the available COI; any applicable caselaw; and the Home Office casework guidance in relation to relevant policies. Country Information The COI within this document has been compiled from a wide range of external information sources (usually) published in English. Consideration has been given to the relevance, reliability, accuracy, objectivity, currency, transparency and traceability of the information and wherever possible attempts have been made to corroborate the information used across independent sources, to ensure accuracy. All sources cited have been referenced in footnotes. It has been researched and presented with reference to the Common EU [European Union] Guidelines for Processing Country of Origin Information (COI), dated April 2008, and the European Asylum Support Office’s research guidelines, Country of Origin Information report methodology, dated July 2012. Feedback Our goal is to continuously improve the guidance and information we provide. Therefore, if you would like to comment on this document, please email the Country Policy and Information Team.

First Election Security Threat Assessment
SECURITY THREAT ASSESSMENT: TOWARDS 2015 ELECTIONS January – June 2013 edition With Support from the MacArthur Foundation Table of Contents I. Executive Summary II. Security Threat Assessment for North Central III. Security Threat Assessment for North East IV. Security Threat Assessment for North West V. Security Threat Assessment for South East VI. Security Threat Assessment for South South VII. Security Threat Assessment for South West Executive Summary Political Context The merger between the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), All Nigerian Peoples Party (ANPP) and other smaller parties, has provided an opportunity for opposition parties to align and challenge the dominance of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). This however will also provide the backdrop for a keenly contested election in 2015. The zoning arrangement for the presidency is also a key issue that will define the face of the 2015 elections and possible security consequences. Across the six geopolitical zones, other factors will define the elections. These include the persisting state of insecurity from the insurgency and activities of militants and vigilante groups, the high stakes of election as a result of the availability of derivation revenues, the ethnic heterogeneity that makes elite consensus more difficult to attain, as well as the difficult environmental terrain that makes policing of elections a herculean task. Preparations for the Elections The political temperature across the country is heating up in preparation for the 2015 elections. While some state governors are up for re-election, most others are serving out their second terms. The implication is that most of the states are open for grab by either of the major parties and will therefore make the electoral contest fiercer in 2015 both within the political parties and in the general election.
