NO 2.2021 ISSN 2787-0308 (ONLINE) Identity crisis, contested citizenship and the challenges of democratic governance in Nigeria since 1999 Professor Siyan Oyeweso Department of History and International Studies Osun State University Osogbo, Osun State Nigeria Abstract The article focuses primarily on the issue of identity and contested citizenship within the context of democratic governance in Nigeria since 1999. A deep understanding of the workings of Nigeria’s democratic terrain may not be possible without some understanding of the identity. Given the political salience of ethnic, religious, and other social forces identities, it has led to a bifurcated citizenship crisis such as the dichotomy between “settlers” and “natives” and “indigenes” and “non-indigenes” or local citizenship. These centripetal and centrifugal forces have not only has become the rule for distributing position, power, and resources in Nigeria but have also coalesced to give rise to an identity crisis and contested citizenship. Different explanations have been offered regarding the implication of the above subject matter for democratic governance. However, the article tries to subsume these explanations under the indigene-settler perspective. Hence, the emergence of federal character, quota system, and true federalism as well as several socio-economic and political crises that became heightened since the beginning of Nigeria’s Fourth Republic are the manifestation of identity and citizenship crisis. The article, therefore, articulates viewpoints that bring into forefront intellectual debate on the future of Nigeria's democratic governance amidst identity crisis and contested citizenship. The article adopts a historical research methodology and relies on secondary sources of data. Keywords: Identity, citizenship, democratic governance, Fourth Republic, Nigeria Introduction Writing the post-colonial history of Nigeria is as good as discussing identity politics, contested citizenship, and its challenges to democratic governance. This assertion is premised on the fact that after more than sixty years of independence, a question which had baffled many borders on if Nigeria can foster a common identity, citizenship, pan-Nigerian, and a sustainable democratic state.1 For instance, the dichotomy between “settlers” and “natives” and “indigenes” and “non-indigenes” or local citizenship has become the rule for distributing position, power, and resources in Nigeria. It has generated serious tensions and conflicts between “majorities” and “minorities” creating the logic 1 Joseph Yinka, Nigeria: Understanding the Contour of the Political Terrain, in Rotimi Ajayi, Joseph Yinka, ed. Nigeria Politics, Springer, 2020, 1-17 1 [email protected] , http://humanusdiscourse.website2.me HUMANUS DISCOURSE Vol. 1. NO 2.2021 ISSN 2787-0308 (ONLINE) of “we” and “them” at all levels in the country.2 In other words, issues in Nigerian politics often reflect primordial identities and questions of citizenship in which contestation overpower, position, land, religious rights, and access to state resources heightened.3 Thus, with the rebirth of democratic governance in Nigeria in 1999, there is no denying the observation that what obtains in Nigeria is a bifurcated system of citizenship by which a pan- Nigerian notion of citizenship is now marred in the ongoing democratisation process and the political mobilization of identities. In other words, identity crisis was encouraged by the inability to effectively conceptualised identity crisis. It has, therefore, introduced such principles in the constitution like the federal character and the quota systems which has promoted rather than stem ethnic and congenital problem. In addition, a strong attachment to ethnic and religious identity was encouraged by the failure of the state to promote good governance and provide democratic “dividends” that would meet the yearnings and aspirations of the citizens. More than this, the “indigene”–“settler” policy is also an instrument of political manipulation and power control by the political elite in a crisis-ridden political system.4 Since the state could not isolate itself from the politics of ethnicity, thus, it has become an instrument of oppression of other groups. Indeed, the failure of the state to mediate in the ethnic and identity crisis aggravated civil strife in such a way as to bring the country almost to the precipice of collapse and disintegration. One of the myths used to justify the dichotomy between indigenes and settlers is that “one can only belong to a particular ethnic group and by that,

The most prestigious polling association in the world, Gallup International Association (GIA), has addressed this huge challenge in order to publish this unique document on the status of global public opinion. Voice of the People, 2006 edition, expresses the concerns of the world’s population on globaliza- tion, the economy, poverty, democracy, religion, immigration, and health, as well as social and political issues. The book is based on a poll conducted — according to the high standards of GIA, which ensure the quality and strength of the data collected — in 68 countries. In each country, Gallup International Association managed every step of the process rigorously, while adapting the methodology to cultural differences and local realities — as illustrated in the amazing photos found in this edition. Of course this survey is primarily numbers, but it is also — above all — citi- zens expressing their lives through their joys, sorrows, and hopes.
