Breaking the cycle of corruption in Nigeria's electricity sector
Access to electricity is a major constraint to economic growth in Nigeria. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are arguably the segment of the Nigerian economy most disadvantaged by a lack of access to reliable power. Due to the failure of grid-based supply, over 80 % of SMEs rely on a generator to power operations. Inclusive, diversified growth in the country depends on growth of the SME sector. This paper examines how SME grid access can be imp…

Le corps des femmes, terrain d'entente de l'islam et du christianisme au Nigeria
Cet article explore les fondements idéologiques communs de l’islam et du christianisme au Nigeria en matière de genre et de sexualité. Le corps des femmes constitue un élément clé dans la définition des normes sociales et des pratiques de telle ou telle confession. On examinera ici l’interaction entre religion et politique au travers d’un contexte historique et d’exemples concrets. Pour la droite religieuse, musulmane ou chrétienne, le corps des …
On the Bodies of Women
This article explores the common ideological ground between Islam and Christianity in Nigeria, in the ways in which gender and sexuality are configured in relation to women's bodies. The latter constitute key sites for the inscription of social norms and practices inherent in particular interpretations of religion. We proceed by examining the interplay between religion and politics in historical context and in specific concrete instances. While t…
Democratic Transition in Anglophone West Africa
Towards a Nigerian perspective on the French problematic in Africa
Introduction The French savoir faire As far back as 1903, E. Fallot, a French colonial officer then posted to Tunisia, wrote a book on the specificity of French colonial policy in Africa and why it would outlive British colonial policy. Fallot defined the French conception of colonialism as: Action exercised by a civilised people over people with inferior civilisations with the objective of gradually transforming them through developing their nat…

Religion and Political Turbulence in Nigeria
There 15 increasing evidence that social movements constitute an important repository of Africa's political practice. Émile Durkheim reminds us that although social facts, expressed in thought, feeling, or action, are derived from an environment external to the individual, they impose on him a route that he is obliged to follow. He suggests, therefore, that we study the public law that codifies existing political values and the sanctions that obl…
The politics of religion in Nigeria
This article analyses the immediate and long term causes of the outbreak of religious violence between Muslims and Christians in Kaduna State, Nigeria, in 1987. The author argues that the crisis arose from the politicisation of religion in the regional contest for power. On the one hand is the issue of the rise of fundamentalist Christianity and Islam. On the other is the struggle for political power by the ‘northern Oligarchy’ within the north a…

La société contre le bipartisme
Society against a two-party system ? General Bakangida's presidency is orienting Nigeria towards fundomental political and economic transformations. At the political level, a federal bipartisan system mobilised by an organisation created to produce a new political culture is proposed. For the economy, an IMF type structural Adjustment Programme is being implemented. How would Nigeria's pluricultural society react to the exigencies of this guided …
The political debate and the struggle for democracy in Nigeria

During the deliberations, one of the major issues that arose was whether there should be a recommendation that Nigeria should return to some form of liberal democratic arrangement i…
