Ethnicity in Nigeria Simon A. Rakov, Vassar College '92 (English 32, Fall 1990) The ethnicity of Nigeria is so varied that there is no definition of a Nigerian beyond that of someone who lives within the borders of the country (Ukpo, p. 19). The boundaries of the formerly English colony were drawn to serve commercial interests, largely without regard for the territorial claims of the indigenous peoples (38). As a result, about three hundred ethnic groups comprise the population of Nigeria (7), and the country's unity has been consistently under siege: eight attempts at secession threatened national unity between 1914 and 1977. The Biafran War was the last of the secessionist movements within this period (3). The concept of ethnicity requires definition. Ukpo calls an "ethnic group" a "group of people having a common language and cultural values" (10). These common factors are emphasized by frequent interaction between the people in the group. In Nigeria, the ethnic groups are occasionally fusions created by intermarriage, intermingling and/or assimilation. In such fusions, the groups of which they are composed maintain a limited individual identity. The groups are thus composed of smaller groups, but there is as much difference between even the small groups; as Chief Obafemi Awolowo put it, as much "as there is between Germans, English, Russians and Turks" (11). The count of three hundred ethnic groups cited above overwhelmingly enumerates ethnic minority groups, those which do not comprise a majority in the region in which they live. These groups usually do not have a political voice, nor do they have access to resources or the technology needed to develop and modernize economically. They therefore often consider themselves discriminated against, neglected, or oppressed. There are only three ethnic groups which have attained "ethnic majority" status in their respective regions: the Hausa-Fulani in the north, the

History A Urbanization Nigeria is still a primarily rural country, with only 47 percent of its population living in cities. Urban areas, however, doubled their share of the population between 1970 and 1996. The country has a long history of urban development, particularly in northern and southwestern Nigeria where substantial cities existed centuries before colonial rule. The largest Nigerian cities are Lagos and Ibadan . Lagos, one of the world’s largest cities, grew as colonial Nigeria’s capital and leading port. Despite its loss of the federal capital in 1991 to

In 2005 Nigeria’s estimated population was 128,771,988, yielding an average density of 141 persons per sq km (366 per sq mi). With a birth rate of 40.6 per 1,000 and a death rate of 17.2 per 1,000, Nigeria’s population is growing at an average of 2 percent annually—a rapid pace, and little changed from the 1970s. The average Nigerian woman gives birth 6 times in her lifetime, although among more educated women the rate is somewhat lower. Nearly half of Nigerians are younger than 15 years. By 2025 the population is projected to grow to 206 million. The highest population densities are in the Igbo heartland in southeastern Nigeria, despite poor soils and heavy emigration. The intensively farmed zones around and including several major cities of the Hausa ethnic group—especially Kano, Sokoto, and Zaria in the north—are also packed with people. Other areas of high density include Yorubaland in the southwest, the central Jos Plateau, and the Tiv homeland in Benue State in the south central region. Densities are relatively low in the dry northeast and in most parts of the middle belt. Ecological factors, including the prevalence of diseases such as sleeping sickness, carried by the tsetse fly, and historical factors, especially the legacy of precolonial slave raiding, help explain these low densities.

The predominant art forms are masks and figures, which were generally used in religious ceremonies. The decorative arts, especially in textiles and in the ornamentation of everyday tools, were a vital art in nearly all African cultures. The lack of archaeological excavations restricts knowledge of the antiquity of African art. As the value of these works was inseparable from their ritual use, no effort was made to preserve them as aesthetic accomplishments. Wood was one of the most frequently used materials—often embellished by clay, shells, beads, ivory, metal, feathers, and shredded raffia. The discussion in this article is limited to the works of the peoples of W and central Africa—the regions richest (because of the people's sedentary lifestyles) in indigenous art. Western Sudan and Guinea Coast In this region the style of woodcarving is abstract. Distortion is often used to emphasize features of spiritual significance. The figures of the Dogon tribe of central Mali stress the cylindrical shape of the torso. Some wooden carvings were made by an earlier people, the Tellem. Sculptures such as masks carved of soft wood are homes for the spirits and are discarded once they have been used in rituals. The Dogon have three distinctive styles of sculpture: masks incorporating recessed rectangles, ancestor sculptures carved in abstract geometric style used as architectural supports, and freestanding figures made in a cylindrical style. High-ranking Dogon families often had carved doors on their granaries.

Department of Plant Science and Biotechnology University of Port Harcourt P.M.B Port Harcourt Nigeria Email: ndukwu_3@yahoo.com ABSTRACT The ethnomedicinal applications of the plant species used primarily as spices and condiments among the indigenous peoples of the Niger Delta area of Nigeria were examined. A total of 24 species belonging to 10 different families were found to have varying applications in ethnobotany and ethnomedicine. The studies indicate that the indigenous people have also developed different methods for collecting, processing, using and conserving these valuable plants and/or their products. The contributions of this study towards the understanding, documentation and safeguarding of indigenous knowledge and use of plants are discussed.

Nigeria Africa PEOPLE The most populous country in Africa, Nigeria accounts for approximately 20 percent of West Africa's people. Although less than 25% of Nigerians are urban dwellers, at least 24 cities have populations of more than 100,000. The variety of customs, languages, and traditions among Nigeria's 250 ethnic groups gives the country a rich diversity. The dominant ethnic group in the northern two-thirds of the country is the Hausa-Fulani, most of whom are Muslim. Other major ethnic groups of the north are the Nupe, Tiv, and Kanuri. The Yoruba people are predominant in the southwest. About half of the Yorubas are Christian and half Muslim. The predominantly Catholic Igbo are the largest ethnic group in the southeast, with the Efik, Ibibio, and Ijaw (the country's fourth-largest ethnic group) comprising a substantial segment of the population in that area. Persons of different language backgrounds most commonly communicate in English, although knowledge of two or more Nigerian languages is widespread. Hausa, Yoruba, and Igbo are the most widely used Nigerian languages. Nationality: Noun and adjectiveNigerian(s).

Africana is the first encyclopedia to encompass the story of all African peoples. W.E.B. DuBois, African-American intellectual and writer, was the first to envision such an "Encyclopedia Africana," and struggled unsuccessfully from 1909 until his death in 1963 to get support. The editors of Africana, both Harvard University professors, have succeeded in carrying out the challenge—a single work that presents the enormousness and wonderful diversity of the pan-African experience. In addition to expected encyclopedia fare—country profiles, histories, and biographies—the encyclopedia includes entries for dozens of African ethnic groups; brief features on African fauna, flora, and geographical features; and articles on popular culture and ideological movements. Africana includes twelve opinionated in-depth essays, plus special "interpretation" articles. All of this makes it a great book. Africana does have weak spots. John Thornton (New York Times, January 16, 2000) cited errors in both African history and contemporary sports. Lack of thorough cross-referencing further impedes ease of use. Fortunately, a sixteen-page list of articles facilitates location and makes for enjoyable browsing.

Nigeria boasts of a plethora of customs and traditions, cultures and festivals, that would appeal to the tastes of the average tourist. (In the Northern States of the country, the customs, cultures and traditions of the people who are mainly Hausa/Fulani, Nupe, Kanuri, Igalaand Tiv are governed by the Musfim religious traditions). Most of the festivals held in these areas, such as the Durbar in Katsina and Kaduna States, are associated with religious celebra- tions.

Opinions expressed by contributors are theirs alone - they do not reflect the opinions of the Africa Centre, London. Profile 1 (contributed) Professor Samuel Ekpe Akpabot was born on 3 October, 1932, in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State of Nigeria. He went to Lagos at the age of eleven for his education at the renowned King's College, a school well known for its tradition in European classical music. Interestingly, Akpabot received significant introduction to European classical music as a chorister at the famous Cathedral Church of Christ Choir, Lagos, under the leadership of Thomas Ekundayo Phillips. At this church, he sang works by most of the great European composers even before leaving for England to study. Handel's Messiah and Mendelssohn's Elijah were among the music he sang. Akpabot admits that Mendelssohn was his favorite composer. In addition to singing at the Cathedral Church, he found time to play in dance bands such as the Chocolate Dandies, formed and led by Soji Lijadu, who later became Assistant Choirmaster at the Cathedral Church of Christ, under Obayomi Phillips (son and successor of Thomas Ekundayo Phillips). In 1949, when his voice broke, Akpabot formed his own band called The Akpabot Players (T.A.P.) after leaving the Cathedral Choir. At this period, he was leading a double musical life as a dance band musician and an organist at Saint Savior's Anglican Church in Lagos. He recalled how he would sneak into the Bishop's court after playing from night clubs and dress up in the morning to play for the Holy Communion Service and the Sunday Matins.

Modo Department of Social Anthropology/Sociology National University of Lesotho P.O. Roma 180 ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION Ethnicity denotes an extreme consciousness of and loyalty to a particular linguistic and cultural group unidentified with any other group (Udoh 1998:38). Such groups usually possess myth of origin, traceable to an epical ancestor or ancestress. With a strong ruling house such ethnic groups like the Yoruba, Edo, Fante were able to organize themselves into Empire or Kingdoms, conquering and incorporating other lesser ethnic groups as vassals. With the coming of colonial masters, treaties were signed with such kingdoms wherever they existed; especially during the 17th and 18th centuries (Bradbury et al 1965; Igbafe 1972). Origin of ethnicity in Africa Ethnicity in post-colonial Africa is principally a response to the new social structure the indigenous people found themselves in during the colonial era and at independence. The cultural upbringing is seriously at variance with the social processes of the modern era. Bohannan (1957) speaks of the philosophy of limited good among the Tiv of Nigeria. All goods are communally owned and so the possession of a good by one person is the loss of that good by another. This concept is applicable to every tribe in most circumstances. Ethnic discrimination has its root in the favouritism shown to kin group members as could be seen from the principle of segmentary opposition among the Tiv of Nigeria (Bohannan 1969) or Nuer of Southern Sudan (Evans-Pritchard 1940).

DIALOGUE WITH AFRICAN TRADITIONAL RELIGION IN SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA: THE CHANGING ATTITUDE OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH By Chidi Denis Isizoh 1. Introduction The Christianity that reached Africa, especially the sub-Saharan region, had undergone several stages of inculturation and re-organisation. It started in a Jewish environment and, right from the beginning, took a radical departure from Judaism. The various accounts of the life of Jesus Christ in the Bible show a movement away from the Jewish traditional observances and strict application of the legal and religious prescriptions of the Torah. This shift continued as the new religion was taken to lands within the Mediterranean region and beyond. The changing political situation of the people of the Ancient Near East from the rule of the Persians to that of the Egyptians, to the Syrians, and to the Romans, had a tremendous impact on the nascent Christian religion. Added to this were the effects of the intellectual currents in the first century A.D. and the religious movements organised by the Sadducees, the Pharisees, the Zealots, the Qumran community and the Essenes, which contributed immensely in shaping the worldview of the first Christians. Paul of Tarsus put an international and inter-cultural stamp on Christianity. As one of the earliest powerful announcers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, he took his religion across the seas to the "whole world". In an unprecedented and daring Council of Jerusalem (Acts 15), a decision was taken to drop the non-essential elements of the Jewish form of Christianity.
