  • Foregrounding Female Agency in the Dance Culture of Nigeria
    WHAT I DO WHEN I DANCE: FOREGROUNDING FEMALE AGENCY IN THE DANCE CULTURE OF NIGERIA Oladoyin Abiona A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2021 Committee: Angela Nelson, Advisor Jeremy Wallach Rahdika Gajjala © 2021 Oladoyin Abiona All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Angela Nelson, Advisor Scholarship on female representations in hip hop has been predominantly premised on the sexualization of the female body. By focusing mainly on this singular aspect of the genre, we reduce the whole essence of womanhood in the industry to such interpretations. The limited scope of such discussions deprives the women of opportunities to tell their own stories of what they do when they dance. Seeing the cultural significance of dance as a form of popular culture in the Nigerian context, this essay, from a feminist perspective, closes this gap by engaging in a qualitative exploration of the lives of three female dancers in Nigeria telling their stories through dance. They are Kaffayat Oluwatoyin Shafau (Kaffy), Odumewu Debbie (Debbiepinkie), and Usiwo Orezinena Jane (Janemena). Exploring their social media archives, interviews granted to TV stations and a published autobiography “Alajoota” by Kaffy, this essay contextualizes and complicates the interpretations of sexualization in the Nigerian hip hop dance industry. Through dance Nigerian women performers are able to negotiate the heavily male-dominated hip hop scene. For them, dance is a coping strategy, a profession, a space for redefining self and embracing sexuality and femininity, and a form of youthful identity and inclusion.

  • Portrayal of Women in Contemporary Nollywood Films: Isoken and King of Boys in Focus
    Portrayal of Women in Contemporary Nollywood Films: Isoken and King of Boys in Focus Emwinromwankhoe Osakpolor, University of Benin, [email protected] Volume 9. 1 (2021) | ISSN 2158-8724 (online) | DOI 10.5195/cinej.2021.299 | http://cinej.pitt.edu Abstract This study investigates the portrayal of women in contemporary Nollywood films, using Isoken (2017) and King of Boys (2018) as case studies. The objective was to highlight the various ways in which women in the films are portrayed to viewers and ascertain whether contemporary Nollywood movies are an improvement on the issues of gender stereotypes and sexism which are hitherto prevalent in the industry. Anchored on the cultivation theory, the study adopted the qualitative content analysis method. Findings showed that women in the studied films are negatively portrayed in various ways and that these portrayals are, at best, parallel to the stereotypical ways in which women were portrayed in previous Nollywood movies. Taking cognizance of the fact that both films are directed by women, the researcher recommends that Nollywood female directors should look beyond the lenses of financial gains and set a pace with regards to changing the narrative and portraying Nigerian women in a positive light.

As a resistance mode, imbuement of the Africanity philosophy has shaped people of African descent in the Diaspora and many post-slavery generations all over the world in maintaining their African roots identity. This paper examines the concept of Africanity in the 21st Century Africa, using the Nigerian popular music scene as a paradigm. Against the backdrop of the present mainstream Hip hop music style referred to as „Afro hip hop‟, the study will use music and video analytical procedures with the objective of identifying the various media through which hip hop artistes project their Africanity. It is quite evident that music artistes still strive to maintain their African identity despite subscribing to a Western originated music style. This is made manifest through language use, nomenclature, message, visual projection, and sonic arrangement among other parameters. Keywords: Africanity, Popular music, Hip hop, Music and identity, Nigeria. INTRODUCTION Africans and people of African descent without the The general notion of taking pride in the portrayal of the African culture.

  • 11 January, 2016 May 24 , 2018
    C XC b 11th January, 2016 May 24th, 2018 THE HIGHLIGHTS Monetary Policy Committee maintains status quo The MPC, in its second meeting of 2018, maintained status quo on all monetary policy parameters, leaving the Monetary Policy Rate (14% pa), Cash Reserve Ratio (22.5%), Liquidity ratio (30%) and asymmetric window (+200bps/-500bps) unchanged. This would be the 10th consecutive session that the MPC has retained interest rates. Key considerations for the decision include positive but weak GDP growth rate, external reserves accretion and looming inflationary risks from the expansion of the 2018 budget. However, the decision to do nothing again could lead to weak corporate earnings (now at 9%), high unemployment and underemployment rates (above 40%) and a volatile stock market capitalization (-1% since April). Gross Domestic Product (GDP) slows to 1.95% in Q1’18 According to the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), Nigeria’s real GDP growth slowed to 1.95% in Q1’18 from the revised growth of 2.11% in Q4’17. However, it was an expansion in comparison to -0.91% recorded in Q1’17. The largest sector remains agriculture, which contributed 21.65% to GDP. Sectors that recorded an expansion in Q1 include insurance, oil and gas, and financial institutions while sectors that contracted were real estate, trade, professional services and construction. Naira falls to seven-month low at the Street Market The naira depreciated against the dollar by 1.4% to N367/$ at the parallel market as at May 24th. This was prompted by a combination of external and internal developments. Firstly, the dollar strengthened against a basket of currencies to a YTD high, as the market anticipates a Fed rate hike in June.
