The new president faces the daunting task of rebuilding a petroleum-based economy, whose revenues have been squandered through corruption and mismanagement, and institutionalizing democracy. In addition, the OBASANJO administration must defuse longstanding ethnic and religious tensions, if it is to build a sound foundation for economic growth and political stability.

Postgraduate Information Suggested Topics Urban and peri-urban food production in Africa Supervisor: Dr Tony Binns, School of African and Asian Studies, J.A.Binns@sussex.ac.uk Large quantities of food are produced within and in close proximity to Africa's towns and cities, providing an important contribution to urban diets and generating income for producers and traders. But there are many problems associated with such production and some would question the relevance of urban agriculture in creating future 'sustainable cities'.

Nigeria, the most populous country in Africa, has a population of 133 millions accounting for about one-fifth of the total population of sub-Saharan Africa. The population is composed of about 250 ethnic groups. Agriculture accounts for 45% of the GDP.

GEOGRAPHY Nigeria Federal Capital: Abuja Area: 923,768.64 Sq. kilometres Population: About 120 million (by estimation) Principal Rivers: Niger and Benue National Day: October 1 Remembrance Day: January 15 Currency: Naira = 100 Kobo Nigeria is one of the largest countries in Africa. It lies wholly within the tropics along the Gulf of Guinea, on the west coast of Africa. It is bounded on the west by the Republic of Benin, on the north by the Republic of Niger and on the east by the Republic of Cameroon and on the south by the Atlantic Ocean. A land of lush vibrant vegetation and rolling velds, its climate varies from tropical at the coast to sub-tropical further in land. Sandy beaches stretch along most of the country's 800 kilometre coast-line which is intersected by the great Niger Delta and by intricate network of creeks and rivers, The sandy beaches are backed by a belt of mangrove swamps, Beyond that, there is a zone of tropical forest, then the country becomes more open and park-like with some hilly ranges. Further inland it develops into a low-level plateau with hills of granite and sand-stone at a general elevation of 610 metres and rising to a central plateau along parts of the eastern frontier to 1,830 metres. The northern borders stretch out towards the Sahara desert, lying well outside the limits of the rain forest. The diversified geographical regions with the almost inexhaustible variety they provide, make Nigeria a highly interesting place.
