The income per capital of the poorest countries such as Ethiopia and Sierra Leon differ from those of prosperous Organization for Economic Cooperation and development countries by a factor of about 40. These income differences come along with huge differences in welfare, health, economic opportunities and life chances. Poverty in sometimes more about how a society shares resources out than how much resources there is overall. Some African countries are very poor, but others are wealthier (often from oil) with extreme inequalities between their citizens. Some people take an unsympathetic view of poverty in Africa. Others suggest that more political initiative is needed. Each African country has a unique history and today faces unique challenges. Development efforts require many different parts of society working together towards the same goals. In reality, this is hard to achieve. The focus of this write up is to interrogate why Africa is poor. Historically, no society had the type of institutions required for modern economic growth, though a few element to them quite long periods. Growth arose when institutional transitions took place. This write up argues that the historical dynamics of institutions in Africa have been different. These initial institutions interacted in a perverse way with a series of shocks that hit Africa, in particular the slave trade in the early modern period and colonialism in the 19 th and 20 th centuries. African countries emerged at independence with a complex path dependent set of institutions that were probably even worse than those which they had at the time of colonization as many of the countries have been struggling with the legacy of colonial rule, and conflicts has been common as systems of government have developed. It was these that precipitated authoritarianism, ties to apron-strings of colonial masters, nepotism, corruption, political instability, sustained economic decline, technological backwardness and reinforced the poverty we see in Africa today.

It is usually described as the government of the people, where the desire of the people is made to work for them. One thing is to get democracy but another thing is to be able to sustain it. Since the inception of democracy in Nigeria, there have been serious challenges facing the country. The contributions of various groups are important in the sustainability of the nation's democracy. Such include political groups, educational sector, the community and religious leaders. This paper aimed at examining the role of religious leaders in sustaining democracy in Nigeria. The research is qualitative and used historical and analytical research approaches. It was discovered that religion is one of the most potent tools for sustaining democracy. The paper recommended that religious leaders should orientate, educate and mobilize their members towards sustaining democracy. They should contribute their quota to sustaining democracy by informing their members on the dividends of democracy and the destructions that characterize autocracy and tyranny.

This paper examined the nature and effectiveness of legislative oversight in ensuring accountability in the security sector in 2011-2021, using the Senate and House Committees on Army and Police. Data for the paper were collected using in-depth interviews with 12 key respondents drawn from the legislature, civil society, and security actors. Secondary data were sourced and analysed using documentary analysis. Findings revealed that while oversight of security sector agencies plays some role in maintaining stability and preventing the deterioration of security conditions, it is ineffective in holding security sector agencies accountable. Based on these findings, the study recommended that security sector committees should use all the oversight tools available to them and that, since the security sector is secretive, there is a need to establish committees with security clearance to enable the legislature to hold the security agencies accountable effectively.

The Arab-Israeli conflict has long been characterized by tension and hostility, with historical disputes over territory, sovereignty, and self-determination. However, the geopolitical landscape of the 21st century has witnessed significant shifts, prompting changes in the dynamics of Arab-Israeli relations. The paper investigates the key factors that have influenced the evolving Arab-Israeli relations in recent years. It examines the impact of regional and global events, including the Arab Spring, the rise of non-state actors, changing regional power dynamics, and shifting geopolitical alliances. Additionally, the paper explores the role of external actors, such as the United States and Russia, and their influence on Arab-Israeli relations. Furthermore, the paper delves into the implications of these changing dynamics on the peace process and prospects for regional stability. It examines the normalization agreements between Israel and some Arab states, such as the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, and Sudan, and analyses their impact on regional alliances and cooperation. Moreover, it explores the role of emerging challenges, such as security threats, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and the potential for renewed tensions. This research draws upon a range of sources, including scholarly articles and policy reports to comprehensively analyse the changing dynamics in Arab-Israeli relations and the realities of 21st-century geopolitics. By understanding the intricate complexities and nuances of these dynamics, policymakers, scholars, and practitioners can gain insights into the future trajectory of Arab-Israeli relations and work towards a more stable and peaceful Middle East.

This attempt is aimed at providing insights into the prevailing national value system and offering vivid insights of the things that are intended to characterize the people as responsible and reasonable citizens of Nigeria, with regards to the joys and tragedy of patriotism and nationalism to such extent that the differences between the theory of Nigeria's National Pledge and its practice are highlighted. The paper therefore is based on interpretations of the makeup of Nigeria's national pledge within the framework of the realities of the thrills and tragedy of patriotism and nationalism. This approach aims to offer a broader and more eclectic understanding of how to accentuate national ethics and nationbuilding in Nigeria. It made use of data from secondary sources such as books, monographs, memoirs, articles and research findings such as dissertations, national daily newspapers and journals. The paper in essence finds that in practice, the guiding creed of the pledge is an antithesis of national reality. This aforementioned assertion is deeply rooted in the fact that perhaps on the individual level, we might find a handful of persons who make efforts to abide by the virtues and moral values professed in the national creed, but collectively as a nation, there is a regrettable failure. Patriotism becomes a mere rhetoric since the national pledge does not inspire loyalty or service. However, considering its practical implications as a research paper, it to a large extent highlights the case for patriotism, nationalism, and nation-building and provides insights into possible ways and means of developing patriotism spirit amongst Nigeria's citizens and as a nation.

Nigerian youth are nonactive participants in political affairs due to reasons perceived to be multifaceted and complex, ranging from disillusionment with the political system, lack of faith in political leaders, to feelings of marginalization and disempowerment. However, social media platforms, have become important sources for political news consumption leading to a change in political apathy found amongst youth in Nigeria. Being heavy users of the internet, Youth can access real-time updates on political events and developments, enabling them to stay informed and engaged with current affairs. Therefore, this study hinged on the uses and gratification theory, concludes that, the active participation of Nigerian youth on social media platforms signifies a deliberate selection of these channels to meet their distinct needs for political engagement and influence.

This study synthesizes key risk factors contributing to interfaith tensions and emphasizes the need for critical discourse to address these challenges effectively. Socio-political factors, including historical ethno-religious tensions and political manipulation, significantly exacerbate interfaith discord. Politicians and external actors often exploit religious differences for their own agendas, deepening divisions within academic communities. Economic disparities also play a crucial role. Unequal access to educational resources and employment opportunities fosters resentment and competition among religious groups. This economic inequality can lead to feelings of marginalization, heightening interfaith tensions. Cultural factors further complicate interfaith relations. Divergent religious practices and beliefs, coupled with societal norms, influence intergroup perceptions and interactions. Misunderstandings and stereotypes stemming from cultural differences can breed mistrust and animosity between religious communities on campus. Religious extremism and radicalization poses additional risks. Extremist ideologies promote intolerance and violence, often targeting educational institutions as platforms for ideological battles. The spread of extremist narratives, especially through social media and external influences, challenges efforts to foster interfaith dialogue and cooperation. Addressing these risk factors requires a critical discourse that prioritizes interdisciplinary approaches. Solutions should focus on addressing structural inequalities, promoting inclusive governance, fostering intercultural understanding, and empowering students and faculty to counter divisive narratives. By comprehensively analyzing and tackling the multifaceted causes of interfaith conflict, Nigerian tertiary institutions can create environments that uphold tolerance, diversity, and mutual respect, essential for academic excellence and social cohesion.

In the ancient Near East, it seems to be part of the culture of the people right from the time of the patriarchs and most of the ancient African societies. With the advent of Christianity to Africa in the 19 th and 20 th centuries, missionaries were at the crossroads on how to handle or accommodate polygamous families in the church when they gave their lives to Christ. It seems polygamous families were looked upon by the missionaries as the worst sinners, which cannot receive the grace of God. A position which upholds the church as the ultimate Judge, outside God's grace which is inconsistent with Biblical teachings. This development puzzles the minds of the learned class and some evangelical theologians and causes anxiety in the cultures where its practice had become the accepted norm of society before the introduction of Christianity. To some extent, it has contributed greatly to the setback in the progress of the work of salvation because those polygamous societies see Christianity as an enemy of their cultures. Besides, the view seems to prescribe a precondition for polygamists to repent hence he must forsake other wives and stick to the first wife in other to be accepted in the church. This has created some social problems which deserve the response of the church in the 21 st century. The Paper employs biblical and historical methods to throw more light on what the Bible says about polygamy and how the church should respond to cases of polygamy in the 21 st century devoid of crises of interest without negating the word of God.

This paper examines the legal frameworks and challenges surrounding youth participation in peacebuilding efforts. At the international level, legal instruments such as the United Nations Security Council Resolution 2250 recognize the importance of youth in peacebuilding and call for their inclusion in decision-making processes. However, despite these efforts, youth face numerous challenges in engaging in peacebuilding activities, including legal barriers, lack of access to resources, and marginalization. Based on the case studies analyzed from diverse regions. This paper demonstrates the impact of legal frameworks on youth participation in peacebuilding. It highlights ways in which these frameworks can either facilitate or hinder such engagement, offering recommendations for enhancing legal structures to better support youth involvement in peacebuilding efforts, By addressing these challenges and enhancing legal frameworks, policymakers and stakeholders can empower youth to play a more active role in building peaceful and inclusive societies.

This perhaps arises from the apparent aged long intergroup relationship in their abode in the Benue flood plain of former Muri Division of the present-day Taraba State. Unknown to many Nigerians who held unto the homogenous group suppositions, these are two different ethnic groups with varied historical backgrounds and Language classification. But, what is most extraordinarily virtuous about the Bandawa and Jen is that, they had an exceedingly revered mutual relation influenced by inhabitation of a common geographical area, the Benue Flood Plain which gave rise to intergroup relationship. The duo mutual relationship spans several centuries from the late 18 th century and can be figuratively described as analogous to that of Siamese twins. The purpose of this study is to explore the historical dynamics in Bandawa and Jen relations within the context of socio-cultural, politico-religious and economic relations. The research methodology adopted involved the use of primary, secondary and archival sources. A multidisciplinary approach was adopted in data analysis. Also, the study concludes by emphasizing the distinctive dynamics that influenced the Bandawa and Jen intergroup relations in the Benue Flood Plain of former Muri Division of Taraba State from 1817 to 1960.

It focuses particularly on the historical significance of TSUBBU, a type of magic utilized by Malams in the Northeastern Nigerian states of Yobe and Borno. The research investigates how TSUBBUB has been used by people trying to accomplish their goals and acquire a higher quality of life through an investigation of cognitive models and internal beliefs. Even though it was used by many educated Muslims, the phenomena is despised and used covertly in Muslim society. The origin of Tsubbu is lost in antiquity but due to its connectivity with Islam, it can be dated to 5th century AD when the religion first gets strong fellowship in the former Kanem Borno Empire. The Tsubbu institutions remained the most reliable medical, social, religious and cultural determinants of the societies in questions for decades; people from other parts of the country and outside the country usually come to secure a contact with the local Malams in the study area. Despite its undeniable efficacy, the mechanics of the sorcery practice remain shrouded in mystery and this paper argues that the dismissal of these practices as primitive superstitions is a means of concealing the limitations of scientific logic. Ultimately, the paper, using qualitative research techniques suggests that TSUBBUB and other forms of supernatural beliefs are important factors to consider in understanding the historical and cultural development of the societies in question. Some of the Quranic verses and names used in the associated ritual practices were discussed to provide a broad understanding of the phenomenon.

Th... more Elections are the hallmarks of democracy not just in Nigeria but in any civilized environment. This could be attributed to the fact that they serve the purpose of peaceful change in government at all arms of governance and they also confer political legitimacy on the elected leaders. However, it must be stated that the conduct of elections in a pluralistic society like Nigeria is often fraught with animosities and ethnicity challenges. Electoral seasons are more than anything else reveals the fragility of the Nigerian state. Elections, politics and electioneering process in Nigeria has become ado or dieǁ affairs. Nigeria is more divided and polarized than it has ever been. The cleavages and fault-lines of ethnocentrism, sectarianism, sectionalism, parochialism and religious extremism are pushing the country to the brink. The fact remains that elections in Nigeria are not about issues but about ethnicity, religion and regionalism. The recent elections in 2015 and 2023 exposed the huge division between the Muslims north and the Christian south. These elections, described as the most successful for decades, were able to compound the country's regional and ethnic divisions. Therefore, the intention of this paper is to examine the effects of ethnicity on election and ethnic politics on national development. The work also considered the expected roles of the church leaders before and after elections in sustaining peaceful coexistence and national integration. To achieve this goal, the paper use historical method in order to trace the historical antecedent of past general elections in Nigeria. The paper discovered that contestants received major votes based on ethnic affiliations rather than competence and better planned manifestoes. The work recommended that for Nigeria to advance in all aspects, ethnic and religious politics should be jettisoned. The paper concluded that politics and elections should not be seen as an end but as means of serving the collective interest and welfare of the electorate regardless of one's ethnic status.

Hence, a profane person is one who was a Christian, but is bereft of what made him/her a Christian. This research is titled, Esau's Profanity: An Exegetical Study of Hebrews 12:16 and its Implications to a Christian. The Methodology employed by the researcher was an Exegetical Study, which studied the general background to the Book of Hebrews, ascertained the original meaning of the text, as the author intended his audience to grasp.

Environmental degradation and farmer-herders' conflicts happen to be two of the major challenges ... more Environmental degradation and farmer-herders' conflicts happen to be two of the major challenges that have threatened the security and unity of North-Central Nigeria, especially Plateau State. The state has been disrupted by attacks emanating from the conflicts, which has been seen as a new wave of violence that primarily stems from disputes over grazing areas for cattle. The necessity to provide food crops and animals, as well as raw materials for industry and export, in order to meet evergrowing demands, has led to extensive use of land. The conflicts have demonstrated enormous potential to exacerbate the insecurity and food crisis, particularly in rural communities where most of the conflicts are localised, with reverberating repercussions nationwide. As a result, this paper examined the use of dialogue and infrastructural development to resolve the farmers-herders' conflict in Riyom, Jos South, and Barki Local Government Areas in Plateau State, from 2008 to 2018. The paper adopted the frustration-aggression theory to ascertain and justify the reasons for the conflicts. A simple proportional percentage was used to distribute the total questionnaires to each of the Local Government Areas. 399 respondents were targeted to participate in the research, but data were collected from 386 respondents. Findings from the research reveal that land, as a resource, is a pivotal point in the conflicts. As the farmers use the land for cultivation, the herders equally use it for grazing. It was also discovered that the leaders rejected the concept of separating the farming area from the grazing area, an idea that could have reduced direct collisions between farmers and herders. The paper thus recommended that the government should be more proactive in the enactment of appropriate policies, dialogue, and empowering vigilantes to resolve farmer-herder conflict in Plateau State.

The end of the Cold War in the early 1990s ushered in a period of dramatic transition to civil rule globally and in West Africa in particular, during which the military class returned to the barracks to undertake the professional role of preserving and protecting the territorial integrity of a nation. The paper attempts to examine the key factors that propel the return of the military to the political scene in the sub-region through the forceful seizure of power from the democratically elected governments in the Niger Republic, Burkina Faso, Mali, and Guinea. Some of the reasons put forward by the coup plotters include tenure elongation, insecurity, economic crisis, and unnecessary interference in domestic affairs by the Western powers, especially France. This paper is guided by the frustration-aggression theory. The paper used qualitative data and content analysis as its methodology. The paper found that there is consensus among the military officers that took over power in some West African countries that economic mismanagement, security challenges, corruption, and maladministration account for the military takeover in the subregion. The paper recommends that the political elite should be mindful of the needs and aspirations of the people and work towards evolving an economically prosperous and peaceful polity, which is the panacea to military intervention.

It pointed to the fact that, in a post-modern time as this, where the Church and Christian communities in Nigeria are faced with such instability of the security of their lives and properties, the theology of the cross and Luther's view on self-defense will be a good response, since the prosperity kind of gospel which has so much influenced African Christianity has no solution for such situation. Such a gospel have made Christians forgot that the Lord Jesus did not promise good life of material prosperity to his follower, but said beforehand that, there is sufferingsuch as persecution-in the journey. However, he told them to rejoice despite all suffering, because He ‗has overcome the world', and they too shall overcome the world. Thus, suffering-even as persecution and civil attacks on our communities-is a reality Christians will face. The Christian response to these sufferings is also two-faceted: self-defense and evangelism to foster peaceful coexistence with their neighbours.

The idea of Christian education, its foundation and the brief history till it came to Nigeria through early missionary endeavor is considered. The definition and general perspective of peace was also looked into while juxtaposing how Christian education can promote peace. The paper threw into discussion what Christian attitude should be in the event of security challenges. Using Biblical and historical theological constructs, the paper proposed the idea of promotion of peace through peace building, peacemaking and peace keeping for the purpose of attaining a peace and securing a nation that is devoid of insecurity.
