    Nigeria and the Politics of Unreason Page 1 of 27 Nigeria and the Politics of Unreason: Political Assassinations, Decampments, Moneybags, and Public Protests By Victor E. Dike Introduction The problems facing Nigeria emanate from many fronts, which include irrational behavior (actions) of the political elite, politics of division, and politics devoid of political ideology. Others factors are corruption and poverty, lack of distributive justice, regional, and religious cleavages. All these combine to create crises (riots and conflicts) in the polity, culminating in public desperation and insecurity, politics of assassinations, decampments (carpet crossing), moneybags, and public protests. All this reached its climax during the 2003 elections. When the nation thinks it is shifting away from these forces, they would somersault and clash again creating another political thunderstorm. It looks that the society would hardly outgrow ‘the politics of unreason’ (Lipset and Raab, 1970), which is often politics of extremism, because the political class is always going beyond the limits of what are reasonable to secure or retain political power. During the 2003 elections moneybags (instead of political ideology) directed political actions in political parties; and it also influenced the activities of many politicians. As a result, the presidential candidates of the two major political parties (PDP and ANPP) cliched their party tickets by stuffing the car boots, so to say, of their party delegates with Ghana-Must- Go bags. This frustrated and intimidated their political opponents within (and those in the other minor political parties). Since after his defeat by Chief Olusegun Obasanjo in the 2003 PDP primary in Abuja, Dr.

  • (George Mason University), Questions About How Partition. Inaddition
    ISLAM AND DEMOCRATIC FEDERALISM IN NIGERIA By John Paden (George Mason University), The Nigerian return to democratic federalism in 1999, after 15 years of centralized military rule, has raised questions about how to decentralize without provoking sentiments for partition. Inaddition, the 1999 presidential election witnessed a voluntary "power shift" from the northern region to the southwest, and in both major parties-the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the Alliance for Democracy/All Peoples Party (AD/APP)-the presidential candidates were from the "Christian" southwest and the vice presidential candidates from the "Muslim" north. This paper examines how regional and ethno-religions factors have emerged since the transition to civilian rule in 1999,. The most obvious issues are the revival of Shari'a law in the criminal domain in the far northern states, the subsequent patterns of ethno-religious conflict (especially in the large northern urban centres), the impact of the events of September 11 on elite and grassroots populations, and the challenge of insulating democratic processes from religious polarization. The global context too has changed. In October 2001 at the Muslim foreign ministers meeting in Qatar, the 56 members of the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) agreed to condemn terrorism and ignore the Taliban's call for jihad against Christians and Jews. Yet, OIC national leaders also must deal with public opinion in their own countries, and the question of external influences is never far from the surface. As a large and complex "religiously mixed" country in the midst of a political transition, I Nigeria is a special challenge.

  • Bayajidda the Prince of Bagdad in Hausa Land
    afrika focus — Volume 32, Nr. 1, 2019 — pp. 125-136 MEMORIALIZING A LEGENDARY FIGURE: BAYAJIDDA THE PRINCE OF BAGDAD IN HAUSA LAND Abubakar Aliyu Liman Ahmadu Bello University Zaria, Nigeria This paper examines the various ways in which the Bayajidda legend is memorialized. In its current manifestations, the legend can be seen as an important agency for the remembrance of the past in the context of rapid socio-historical change in Africa, under the influence of modernity, technology and glo- balization. The analysis begins by highlighting the interface between folklore and history in everyday cultural practices in postcolonial northern Nigeria. The signposts that give a coherent structure to the paper include the chronicles of the Bayajidda legend, the essential oral version circulating in its different forms in Hausa society. Over the years, reference to the legend of Bayajidda has always been made through the use of different modes of cultural expression such as song, dramatic performance, film and other forms of narration. This range has served the political and ideological interests of the dominant power elite who are consistently alluding to the Bayajidda legend. The survival of the essential oral narrative therefore depends solely on a strategy of alluding to the legend in its various guises, including the form of museum artifacts, drama, films and musical songs. However, the paper explores each of the specific historical periods from the pre-colonial down to the colonial and postcolonial epochs with a view to highlighting how specific forms of the legend are deployed by hegemonic structures for the purposes of legitimation. KEYWORDS: BAYAJIDDA, LEGEND, HISTORY, HAUSA KINGDOM, MEMORIALIZATION, RECREATION Introduction The analysis below is divided into three broad categories.
