Where Men Go/Stay to Build Again
While deportation of Africans is a commonplace practice in China, deportation and its aftermath, as experienced by deportees, remain at the margin of research. This article examined the spatial condition of deportation afterlife using data from a study on the post‐deportation experiences of Nigerian men deported from China. Specifically, it focused on the city as a space and place of post‐deportation coping, including the practices of translocali…

A Person Taking Care of the Sick is also a Sick Person”
Informal caregivers support relatives in healthcare facilities globally. However, their involvement in hospitalization care while residing in and around the hospital is more prevalent in under-resourced settings. This article examined the challenges and multifaceted consequences of hospital-based informal caregiving in a Nigerian tertiary health facility. The study adopted a non-experimental exploratory research design and ethnographic and qualit…
Scope of health worker migration governance and its impact on emigration intentions among skilled health workers in Nigeria
The growing trends for skilled health worker (SHW) migration in Nigeria has led to increased concerns about achieving universal health coverage in the country. While a lot is known about drivers of SHW migration, including national/sub-national government’s inability to address them, not enough is known about its governance. Underpinning good governance systems is a commitment to human rights norms, that is, principles that enshrine non-discrimin…
Health Challenges in Everyday Life of Nigerians in Guangzhou City, China
The presence of Africans in Chinese cities has made their healthcare-related issues an expanding area of interest. However, previous studies have not thoroughly explored how Africans live through health problems. This article explores the taken for granted aspect using the analytical frameworks of migration as a social determinant of health and phenomenological sociology. Based on interviews with 37 Nigerians in Guangzhou city, it describes how h…
Deportability, deportation and Nigerian 'deportspora' in China
How do the manifestations of deportability in everyday life, and deportation experiences, constitute African migrants into a ‘deportspora’ in China? Despite the scholarly attention paid to the migration of Africans to China, questions of deportability and the simultaneous, reverse flows through their deportation are under-explored. In this article, I examined this critical gap by exploring the lifeworlds of Nigerian migrants and deportees from Ch…
Nigerians in China
The challenges facing Africans in Chinese cities have been examined from different perspectives, including healthcare-related challenges and barriers. However, how they navigate health problems through circulation and transnational practices has received scant attention. The article explored the importance of circulation and everyday transnationalism in health maintenance using qualitative data from 37 Nigerians in Guangdong Province, China. It r…

Local and Transnational Identity, Positionality and Knowledge Production in Africa and the African Diaspora
How does shared identity between researcher and the researched influence trust-building for data generation and knowledge production? We reflect on this question based on two separate studies conducted by African-based researchers in sociology and political science in Nigeria. We advanced two interrelated positions. The first underscores the limits of national belonging as shorthand for insiderness, while the second argues that when shared nation…
Diaspora grand-mothering in Nigeria
Leaving children in the care of grandparents is a fairly common practice in close knit societies such as Nigeria. This service of providing childcare by grandmothers is however taking a transnational form with the exportation of grandmothers from Nigeria to care for grandchildren whose parents, out of economic necessity, must work fulltime. This article explores the dynamics of Nigerian grandmothers providing childcare to grandchildren in the dia…
The state of academic (un)freedom and scholar rescue programmes
The attack on academic freedom has worsened in different parts of the world regardless of political context. Universities, academics and students have come under increasing attack and are subjected to censorship and violence, while academic programmes that have been categorised as ‘politically sensitive’ are cancelled or banished from the curriculum. Scholar rescue programmes remain the most important and enduring response to safeguarding and res…
Pandemics and Management of “Dangerous Communities”
How do we unpack and make sense of anti-African/Black sentiments in the pandemic control and mitigation practices in China? This article responds to the question by drawing a parallel between the experiences of Africans in China during the Ebola virus disease and COVID-19 outbreaks. Focusing specifically on Nigerians as a subsection of the African community in Guangzhou City, China, it explores how the COVID-19-inspired discrimination against Afr…
Academic (Im)mobility
Since the emergence of China in the geopolitical and economic spaces of Africa, academics have followed Chinese and African people moving in both directions and conducted on-the-ground, cross-border ethnographies. However, academics are not equally mobile. This autoethnography analyses the intersections of ethnography, mobility and knowledge production on ‘Africans in China’ through a critical exploration of the contextual issues shaping the uneq…
They did not allow me to enter the place I was heading to
How do African migrants become stuck-in-place and experience stuckedness in China? This article interrogates the concepts of stuckedness and social navigation to examine what it means to be ‘stuck-in-place’ using the stories of four Nigerians—a woman and three men—in Guangzhou City. Two modes of stuckedness were observed: ‘truncational stuckedness’ and ‘identity stuckedness’. While the former resulted from being spatially stuck in Guangzhou on th…

The role of mentoring in research ecosystems in Sub-Saharan Africa
Mentoring is important for improving capacity development in population and public health research in sub-Saharan Africa. A variety of experiences have been documented since Consortium for Advanced Research Training in Africa (CARTA) admitted the first cohort in 2011. However, the experience of mentoring opportunities in CARTA has not been studied. Our study focused on the perceptions, experiences and challenges of mentoring among CARTA fellows. …
I have a divine call to heal my people”
This case study explored the motivations and strategies of Nigerian medicine traders in responding to the health-care demands of co-migrants in China using observations and interview data from two Nigerian medicine traders in Guangzhou. The medicine traders initially responded to a ‘divine call’ but they shared similar economic motivations to survive, served predominantly African clientele and relied on ‘flyers’ and family networks to source for …
Cohabiting commerce in a transport hub
Based on a case study of Iyana Ipaja, one of the largest transport hubs with a spacious motor park and the most vibrant markets in North Lagos, we elaborate on the nuances of interactions between commercial actors and various forms of infrastructure in the spatial and temporal senses. In terms of materiality and mobility of their businesses, commercial actors are categorised into three types, shopkeepers, stallholders and hawkers. They have exten…
Everywhere is home
Africa-China relations are facilitating different flows and inducing mobilities that have produced Afro-Chinese families in Guangzhou, China. This article examines how Nigerian-Chinese couples construct and embrace contradictory notions of home, as well as how their child upbringing practices manifest this paradox. The article uses data from life history interviews, repeated visits and in social hangouts involving both Nigerian-Chinese couples an…
Union Formation Among Youth in Sub-Saharan Africa
Is early sexual debut a key determinant of union formation among young adults in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA)? Using a life-course perspective, this article analysed data from Demographic and Health Surveys of selected countries to examine the relationship between sexual behaviour measured by age at first sex and the likelihood of cohabitation or marriage. These associations were examined using binary and multinomial logistic regressions. Findings su…
Wheelbarrow livelihoods’, urban space and antinomies of survival in Ibadan, south west Nigeria
Wheelbarrows are a common sight in Nigerian cities where they function as an instrument of work among the urban poor. This paper explores how the wheelbarrow is increasingly deployed as a ‘mobile shop’, and describes the livelihoods of urban subjects who use it for street trade and space appropriation in Ibadan, Nigeria. Using 30 in-depth interviews, non-participant observation and picture documentary, we analyse how wheelbarrow street traders re…
I don’t want to have a separated home’
The growing 'Africans in China' literature has documented the extent and extensiveness of flows from Africa to Chinese cities. However, return migration has not received much attention, and even less is known about the role of the family in return consideration. The article focuses on how married Nigerians reckon return and family in Guangzhou city using data from ethnographic observations and interviews with 25 participants. While the family is …

Here, we are all equal!’
The spread of soccer viewing centres (SVCs) in Nigeria is one of the unfolding legacies of global sporting media in Africa. While, providing access to live broadcast of European soccer competitions, SVCs have developed into supplementary social spaces where culturally defined rules of social relations are contested. Using Goffman's notion of performance and Agbalagba in Yoruba normative system, in conjunction with sociological perspective on spac…
Fuel subsidy in Nigeria
Purpose – Fuel subsidy removal has become a recurring issue in Nigeria. Successive governments in the country have interfaced with this issue as they attempted to reform the economy and the petroleum downstream to reduce corruption and waste and make the sector more effective. Importantly however, fuel subsidy removals have always met opposition from the citizens and civil society organisations. The remit of this article is to bring original and …

African Scholarship and Visa Challenges for Nigerian Academics
Twenty-first-century societies are driven by knowledge. But knowledge regimes in the world today are not balanced, which leads to dubious knowledge, poor recommendations, and vacuous conclusions in the areas of policy and practice. This is manifested in and closely related to the compromised academic mobility of African scholars, which has become topical and in need of attention across the global knowledge domains. African scholarship and scholar…

Socio-Economic Context of Begging Among the Elderly in Nigeria
This study utilised a context-based analysis of field observations and fifteen in-depth interviews to examine how begging is practiced by the elderly in a city in Southwestern Nigeria. As both sub-categories of beggars in the population and the larger elderly persons in the society, elderly beggars are a distinct demographic group whose needs differ from the rest of the population. Adopting a livelihood perspective as the exploratory frame, the s…
The Media, Informal Learning and Ageism in Ibadan, Nigeria
In recent decades, public perceptions of old people have been shifting towards negativity. Stereotypes of ageing may shape behaviours towards the aged, and may complicate the social, nutritional, psychological and health conditions of the elderly. The perception and attitude of people toward the aged cannot be separated from the informal learning outcomes that flowed through or permeated their interactional episodes as well as their encounters an…
Children without a family should come out!’
The increasing vulnerability of children and experiences of childhood violence in many parts of the world have gained traction in academic and policy discourses. In Nigeria, many orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) live in households where they are exploited, violated and potentially dehumanised. Although responses aimed at improving their condition have grown, some interventions are being rendered ineffective. Based on field encounters of proj…
