      • Niger Delta Environmental Degradation and Resource Control Conflict: A Post-Amnesty Analysis of the Yar’ Adua/Jonathan Administration Conflict Resolution and Peace Policy

        James Olusegun Adeyeri PhD 부산대학교 한국민족문화연구소 2017 Localities Vol.7 No.-

        By early 2014, the Niger Delta region of Nigeria was relatively peaceful largely due to the Federal Government’s Amnesty Program and its allied policy of socio-economic development. The historically intractable Niger Delta conflict between environmental, resource control, and fiscal federalism agitators versus the Nigerian state had indeed begun to show signs of abatement from 2010, following the proclamation and commencement of implementation of an amnesty program by the Umar Yar‘Adua government earlier in 2009. Under this policy, the president declared a general amnesty and unconditional pardon to all the militants who had taken up arms against the Nigerian state during the course of the Niger Delta struggle, and in return they were to surrender their arms and renounce militancy within 60 days. In addition, the Presidential Committee on Amnesty and Disarmament for Militants was established to execute a post-amnesty program of socio-economic development in the Niger Delta worth about N200 billion (Aghalino, 2010:82). However, the relative peace and security achieved in the region by this policy has come under serious threat since February, 2016, following several bomb attacks on oil and gas infrastructure by new militant groups, foremost among which are the Niger Delta Avengers (NDA), the Joint Niger Delta Liberation Force (JNDLF), and the Adaka Boro Avengers (ABA) (Amaize, et al, 2016; Ugwuanyi, 2016; Ogundipe, 2016). This paper is a post-amnesty analysis of the Yar'Adua/Jonathan administration's conflict resolution and peace and security strategy for the Niger Delta to resolve the lingering crisis over environmental degradation and oil exploration. The study raises these questions about the amnesty program: How successful is it? To what extent have ex-militants been re-integrated into society? Has the programme resolved the Niger Delta’s core problems of environmental degradation, acute socio-economic backwardness, and resource control/fiscal federalism grievances? If it has been unsuccessful (as currently unfolding developments in the region indicate), then what next?

        British colonial policy, change and conflict in traditional political institutions and authorities of the Akoko of southwest nigeria, 1897-1960

        James Olusegun Adeyeri 이화여자대학교 이화인문과학원 2018 탈경계인문학 Vol.11 No.1

        The Akoko are a sub-group of the Yoruba ethnic group in Southwest Nigeria. Despite sharp linguistic variations, the indigenous political system of Akoko towns is akin to the monarchical system in other Yoruba towns. However, between 1897 and 1960 Akokoland fell under British colonial rule, like many other Nigerian territories. The new political system brought far-reaching consequences upon the nature and operations of the pre-existing government and politics in Akoko territory. While certain British colonial policies subverted the power and authority of traditional rulers in Akokoland, some others created conflict within the traditional authorities and institutions of Akoko kingdoms. Therefore, using the chieftaincy crises in Ikare, Oka, and Akungba kingdoms as case studies, this paper shall evaluate the impact of British colonial policy on Akoko traditional political institutions and authorities, particularly with respect to change and conflict during the period 1897-1960. The Indirect rule system introduced by the British administration created far-reaching changes in Akoko traditional institutions, authorities, and society, especially as it substantially undermined the power and authority of Akoko traditional rulers, chiefs and other indigenous institutions in favour of the British colonial administrators and administration. In addition, British colonial policy created disaffection, tension and conflict within and between Akoko traditional institutions and authorities during the study period and left enduring legacies in some kingdoms. Data comprise both primary and secondary sources.

        Assessing remotely sensed temperature humidity index as human comfort indicator relative to landuse landcover change in Abuja, Nigeria

        Samuel O. Ige,Vincent O. Ajayi,O. E. Adeyeri,K. S. A. Oyekan 대한공간정보학회 2017 Spatial Information Research Vol.25 No.4

        Abuja, Nigeria’s capital city has witnessed remarkable expansion, growth and developmental activities since its inception in 1976. This mass inrush and settlement of people often leads to the replacement of the natural land cover with urban infrastructural facilities resulting in microclimate change and worsening thermal environmental conditions. It is therefore pertinent to study the thermal environment of the city if Abuja will avoid the associated problems of growing and expanding city like many others in the world. Thus this study examines the use of remote sensing and geographic information system in mapping the temperature humidity index (THI) as human comfort indicator relative to land use land cover change in Abuja using Landsat Thematic Mapper, Enhanced Thematic Mapper ? and Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager/Thermal Infrared Sensor data of 1987, 1999, 2009 and 2014. This is to assess the changes that have taken place between these periods. Subsequently, an attempt was made at comparing differences in the THI between five different land cover classes: water body, built-up area, closed canopy vegetation, open vegetation and waste land. The results show that the declining trend of vegetation cover between 1987–1999, and 2009–2014 saw a rise in the region with THI[26 (discomfort) while the periods between 1999 and 2009 where there was a remarkable improvement in the vegetation cover saw an increase in region where comfortable condition is achieved. The discomfort index class category is the most dominant across most of the land cover classes except in the water body and closed canopy class categories. This order of dominance is the highest in wasteland and built-up areas land use/land cover categories.
