Book excerpt: Since publication in 1957 the importance of Bohannan's study of judicial institutions and procedures among the Tiv has been widely recognized.

Download or read book Reconciliation in Northern Nigeria written by Olayinka Oluniyi and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2017-09-08 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Dr. Olufemi Oluniyi takes a fresh look at Muslim-Christian violence which has become synonymous with the name of Northern Nigeria. It is fresh in the sense that he takes a historical approach to the problem, dating back to the founding of Northern Nigeria. This approach inevitably brings to the fore the culpability of the colonial government for the institutionalisation of inequality and for pursuing policies which are tantamount to planting the seeds of religious violence for post-independence fruitage and harvest. By highlighting the role of the colonial administration, he is by no means suggesting that post-independence perpetrators of violence are less culpable for their crimes against humanity. Rather, the highlight is meant to raise awareness of what was really going on, despite offical cover-up.
Download or read book From Yelwa to Yola written by Jan Strybol and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ethnographic literature of the first half of the 20th century paid hardly any attention to the sculptural traditions of the numerous ethnic groups that populated Nigeria. The study of Nigerian art only really got going thanks to the pioneering work of William Fagg who published numerous books and exhibition catalogues on this subject as from the 1950s. The focus, however, was on the ancient art of Ife and Benin, on the one hand, and on the southwestern Yoruba, on the other hand. At the end of the sixties, a great number of wooden sculptures from the Benue Valley - a tributary of the Niger River - came to light. Statues and masks of the Igala, Idoma, Jukun, Mumuye and others conquered the African art market. However, the more northern areas of Nigeria remained terra incognita for a long time. It was mistakenly believed that remnants of wooden sculpture could not be found in regions which had been islamized. This book represents 145 wooden and bronze art objects from private collections which have never before been published. They provide insight in the diverse art production of Northern Nigeria, demonstrating the existence of a rich sculptural tradition from Yelwa in the northwest to Yola in the southeast.

Download or read book The Diplomacy of Partition written by C. Hirshfield and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the spring of the year 1898 the long rivalry of Britain and France in West Africa reached a dangerous climax. The West African crisis was but one aspect of an extensive Anglo-French contest for colonial possessions which characterized the final decade of the nineteenth century. Competi tion for dominion went on relentlessly in the Nile Valley, along the banks of the Mekong in Southeast Asia, and within the territories of the Niger River Bend. The Upper Nile dispute dwarfed all others; and ultimately the inability of Britain and France to settle this question through diplo matic negotations was to lead to the confrontation at Fashoda. Simulta neously, however, a more obscure struggle was in process, namely the contest for possession of the thousand mile stretch of the Middle Niger. Aside from an infrequent flurry of diplomatic activity occasioned by the foray of an English or French officer into the little known realms of the Niger Bend, the protracted struggle for control of the river artery received scant notice. The Foreign Offices in both France and Britain traditionally regarded the region as one of secondary interest and tended to subordinate it to more pressing concerns. Even the eruption of a dan gerous crisis in West Africa in the spring of 1898 was somewhat over shadowed by the subsequent incident at Fashoda so that the earlier cli max appeared mainly a curtain raiser.
