Volume 2IFRA-Nigeria2006[Place of publication not identified]Institut français de recherche en Afrique20061 online resource (126 pages)Dynamiques africainesBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph978-8025-14-5 With an estimated population of about 130 million and over 250 ethnic nationalities, Nigeria ranks the most populous country in black Africa. It is also one of the most resource-endowed countries in the continent, having an enormous stock of natural resources that include petroleum, bitumen, gold, coal, and bauxite. Its soil and climate are suitable for an all-year round farming and there is ample distribution of rivers for commercial fishing. Many observers (Achebe, 1983; Ayida, 1990; Fasanmi, 2002) have therefore argued that, given the vast pool of human and natural resources at its disposai, Nigeria should have emerged one of the richest countries not only in Africa but in entire the world.Institut français de recherche en Afrique special research issueSocial SciencesHILCCSocial Sciences - GeneralHILCCdiaspora communitycrisisplural-societyclientelismcitizenshippatrimonialism and nèo-patrimonialismcommunal-instabilityethnic-groupsidentitymigrationpatronagecorruptionconflictcolonial labour policySocial SciencesSocial Sciences - General300Aderinto Saheed1185687PQKBBOOK9910131941703321IFRA special research issue.
