Download or read book Violence in Nigeria written by Toyin Falola and published by University Rochester Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Violence in Nigeria is the most comprehensive study of religious violence and aggression in Nigeria, notably its causes, consequences, and the options for conflict resolution. After an analysis of the links between religion and politics, the book elaborates on all the major cases of violence in the 1980s and 90s, including the Maitatsine, Kano, Bauchi, Kaduna, and Katsina riots. Zones of religious tensions are identified, as well as general characteristics of violence in Nigeria; and issues in inter and intra-religious relations, relious organizations, and the states, and the main actors in the conflicts are explored in great detail. A product of extensive primary research, Violence in Nigeria makes a contribution to contemporary social and political history that no previous study has attempted, and it is written to appeal to specialists and non-specialists alike.
Download or read book West African Youth Challenges and Opportunity Pathways written by Mora L. McLean and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-10-21 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open-access edited collection, focusing on Ghana and Nigeria, offers a transatlantic, transnational exploration of barriers that threaten the wellbeing of West African youth—ranging from Black immigrant youth in the American city of Newark, New Jersey, to students in Almajiri Islamic schools in Northern Nigeria. Incorporating themes of migration, vulnerability, and agency and aspirations, the book conveys the resilience of African youth transitioning toward adulthood in a world of structural inequality. It thus crosses the academic divide between Youth Studies and African Studies, while challenging conventional framings of Black youth as deficient and deviant—positing instead their individual and collective creativity and assets. The contributors employ different methodological approaches, including field research and autoethnography, from varying multidisciplinary and practitioner perspectives.
Download or read book Pathways to Peacebuilding written by Uchenna D. Anyanwu and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2022-11-30 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the consistent challenge of Islamist acute violence, particularly in Nigeria, this monograph attempts to respond to the question: How can Jesus’s followers pattern response to violence after Jesus’s model demonstrated in his triumph over death, evil, sin, and violence through staurocentric pathways? And how can Jesus’s followers in Nigeria adopt the same staurocentric model in order to not only overcome acute violence within the country but also to extend hands, heads, hearts, and homes of staurocentric forgiveness, hospitality, and other practices toward Muslims? In this study, I posit that peacebuilding contextual theology be grounded on the mystery of the cross (σταυρός–stauros)—a theologico-theoretical framework that the church in Nigeria should espouse in order to position herself to extend hands, heads, hearts, and homes of staurocentric practices, whose appropriation must be undertaken through constructive and critical integration of the God-given African peacebuilding concepts autochthonous to Africa’s mosaic cultural contexts. The pivotal thesis is that the staurocentric model remains the triune God’s instrument for triumphing over violence, and thus should be espoused by Jesus's followers in every era and context for peacebuilding in contexts of violence through a triadic constructive and critical integration of indigenous peacebuilding concepts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over 2,000 years after the physical death of Jesus Christ on the Cross, mankind has been asking serious questions about the purpose of life here on earth due to religious confusion, premature deaths, diseases, poverty, famine, illnesses, natural disasters, wars, terrorism, climate change, broken marriages, drought, corruptions, greed, depression, recessions, slavery, addiction, accidents, deformities, immorality, selfishness, repression, etc. Life has been so difficult for most inhabitants of this planet, especially people in poor and underdeveloped parts of the world. Many people have lost faith in God, and some do not even believe that He exists. This book explains my true life story, the story leading up to the external voice of God to me, the reason for the worlds problems, and also the ultimate solutions to the worlds unending problems. Gods anointed single worldwide leader is the only person who can take everyone around the globe forward to everlasting unity, peace, and stability. I am back and ready to put things right once and for all here on planet earth, and I want leaders of this present world to seriously consider my claim as the ultimate leader of the entire world. This book is primarily directed to every soul on this planet, especially believers of the existence of the Almighty God, mostly Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and all other religious establishments that exist. We must all now stand up together for what we believe to be true and move the people of this planet to the promised world. Almighty God will richly bless you as you read this book with an open mind. When the world has lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and that I do nothing of myself, but as My Father taught and directs Me, I speak these things. The purpose of life here on earth is to honour and obey Gods words, worship Him by faith, in truth and in spirit, to work hard and help each other and then enjoy the beauty and majesty of this planet in unity, peace, love and harmony and also the planets our Father is about to reveal to mankind. The ultimate purpose of life is to become gods and to lead an everlasting life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), which was adopted unanimously by the United Nations General Assembly in 1989, marked a turning point in the perception of children in international law and policy. Although it was hoped that the Convention would have a significant and positive impact on the lives of all children, this has not happened in many parts of the world. This edited volume, based on empirical research and Non-Governmental Organisation project data, explores the progress of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, and to a lesser extent, the African Charter on the Rights and Welfare of the Child, in nine African countries in the 25 years since it was adopted by the UN General Assembly. The book considers the implementation of the Convention both in terms of policy and practice, and its impact on the lived experiences of children in societies across the continent, focusing on specific themes such as HIV/AIDS, education and disability, child labour, witchcraft stigmatisation, street children, parent-child relationships and child participation. The book breaks new ground in blending legal and social perspectives of the experiences of children, and identifies concrete ways forward for the better implementation of the CRC treaty in the various political contexts that exist in Africa.
