  • Parochial Political Culture: the Bane of Nigeria Development Rosemary Anazodo (Ph.D) Department of Public Administration Nnamdi
    Review of Public Administration & Management Vo. 1 No. 2 Parochial Political Culture: The Bane of Nigeria Development Rosemary Anazodo (Ph.D) Department of Public Administration Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka. E-mail:[email protected] Agbionu, Tina Uchenna Department of Business Administration Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, Nig E-mail:[email protected] Ezenwile Uche Department of Public Administration Anambra State University, Uli Anambra State Abstract This paper examined the effect of parochial political culture on national development in Nigeria. It is imperative at this time more than any other in the history of Nigeria, a country at crossroad to vigorously address the challenges posed by the parochial political culture , without which political stability, political innovation, national development among others would be a mirage. For many decades Nigeria has been on a steady decline in regards to all indicators of national development. On this premise the paper intends to investigate how Nigeria’s political culture impedes her national development. Based on the assertions above, some objectives were formulated to guide the study. Theories of two republics and Prebendalism formed the basis of the study. Some findings were made and recommendations provided on the way forward . Keywords; Parochial, Political Culture, Development. Introduction Nigeria is sadly at the other side of political and economic development. Annual income per head is dismally low, economic and social infrastructures are underdeveloped and manufacturing base is weak. 1 Review of Public Administration & Management Vo. 1 No. 2 Nigeria is a rich country whose economy has been mismanaged over the years. The excellent investment opportunities have been affected by unstable political atmosphere and threats to security of life and property (Abimboye, 2010:18).

  • Icheke Journal of the Faculty of Humanities Vol.18
    Icheke Journal of the Faculty of Humanities Vol.18. No.2 June, 2020 www.ichekejournal.com The Role of the Church towards a Sustainable Transition and Resource Control in Rivers State, Nigeria: A Post Joshua Israel’s Example By Goka M. Mpigi PhD Department of Religious and Cultural Studies, Akwa Ibom State University +234-805-5458-953; +2348033385845 [email protected] Abstract Joshua’s emergence as the leader of the Israelites came after a long period of mentorship under the leadership of Moses. Joshua was the closest person to Moses during the Exodus and the period of wandering in the wilderness. He was the commander of the Israelite army under Moses and was aptly referred to as “Moses’ aid”. Because of his loyalty and dedication to the vision of Moses, it was not a surprise that the mantle of leadership fell on him. This was a smooth and deliberate transition. Joshua accepted the assignment and immediately addressed himself to the task of bringing to completion the work Moses his predecessor started. That is, settling the Israelites in Canaan, the Promised Land. A task he successfully accomplished without initiating any new agenda for himself. Soon after the death of Joshua, things began to fall apart in the nation of Israel. This paper identifies a lacuna occasioned by the inability of Joshua to handover leadership to a successor. ‘Every man did that which was right in his own eyes’ (Judges 21:25 KJV). The Nigerian situation over the years paints a similar picture; though the nation has witnessed transitions from one democratic dispensation to another.

  • Nigeria and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation: [0.9]
    religions Article Nigeria and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation: A Discourse in Identity, Faith and Development, 1969–2016 Babajimi Oladipo Faseke Department of History and International Studies, Redeemer’s University, Ede 00176, Nigeria; [email protected] Received: 18 January 2019; Accepted: 26 February 2019; Published: 5 March 2019 Abstract: Nigeria is both a multi-ethnic and multi-religious society, with Islam and Christianity being the dominant religions. The Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) is therefore an institution that the Muslim segment of the country can readily identify with. However, there is the question of the secular posture of the country, which Christians within the polity use as an excuse to distance the country from an institution they perceive to be exclusively for Muslims. However, despite being an organization that emerged from Muslim solidarity, the OIC transcends faith to provide economic and political opportunities for member nations. The fact that Islam remains a rallying point within the OIC, however, made Nigeria’s relationship with the organization tenuous for the most part. It is against this backdrop that the paper traces the origins and evolution of Nigeria’s involvement with the OIC, identifying its cost and benefits. The essay argues that Nigeria will be the better for it if both the Christian and Muslim segments of the population embrace the OIC as a whole or are unanimous in discarding it. The divisive tendency that Nigeria’s membership breeds, however, will be detrimental to the nation’s unity and development. Keywords: Nigeria; Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC); foreign policy; secularity; economic aids 1.
