Extractions: And I saw another angel flying in midheaven, having an eternal gospel to preach to those who live on the earth, and to every nation and tribe and tongue and people. - Revelation 14: 6. We have several barriers to meeting this challenge. But God is providing a way to meet them. Language - With over 6,500 languages the task seems impossible. Each aspect of a language poses a unique set of problems. This confines us to producing material by population size. Spoken Language - There is a problem with dialects, pronounciation and the availability of qualified people to teach the gospel. Also, a single written word can have several meanings depending on the tone used to pronounce the word.

Extractions: Mandela's 'madiba' shirts are famous around the world Shortly after taking the oath of office as South Africa's first democratically elected President, Nelson Mandela stormed the uptight fashion world of statesmen and dignitaries with the most unprecedented suit of all. Mandela introduced the "Madiba shirt". Flowery and loose-fitting, it gave the new South African president a relaxed - and some would say less formal - appearance. Meanwhile in Kenya, the speaker of the national assembly presides over a parliament with one of the most rigid dressing codes in Africa. A suit and tie is compulsory for male Members of Parliament in Kenya, and anything less would cause an MP to be thrown out of the house. But some Kenyan parliamentarians have tried to defy the strict dressing code, which they term "colonial and un-African." Some have dared to disobey the speaker, turning up in Parliament with flowing Nigerian "agbada" robes - and of course getting thrown out for it.

Extractions: Courtesy World Bank (Josef Hadad) In general, the southern groups of peoples have a fragmented quality. In 1990 the two most important groupings were the Igbo and the Yorubaboth linguistic communities rather than single ethnic units. History, language, and membership in the modern nation-state, however, had led to their identity as ethnic groups. In addition, although not as clearly differentiated, two subunits had strong traditions of ethnic separateness. These were the peoples of the Niger River delta area and those on the border between the Igbo and Yoruba. The Yoruba kingdoms were essentially unstable, even when defended by Portuguese guns and later by cavalry (in Ilorin and Kabba), because the central government had insufficient power constitutionally or militarily to stabilize the subordinate chiefs in the outlying centers. This fissiparous tendency has governed Yoruba contemporary history and has weakened traditional rulers and strengthened the hands of local chiefs and elected councils. Ilorin, like Nupe to the north, was an exception, an extension of Fulani imperial expansion; in 1990 it was ethnically Yoruba, yet more closely allied through its traditional rulers to the Islamic societies to the north. It thus formed a bridge between north and south. Migration of Fulani people in northern Nigeria

February 2003 Violent Ethnic Conflicts in NigeriaBeyond Myths and Mystifications By Bala Usman The most primary of the fabrics binding all human communities, throughout the world, from the earliest Stone Age hunting and gathering bands, up to today, has been the provision, on a sustained basis, of the security of life, and of the means of life, to the members of that community. But, even from that very ancient period of human development, one of the most difficult political problems that human communities and polities have faced, is that of establishing on a feasible, and operationable, basis who is a member of the community and who is not. For, this defines where the boundaries of the community and the polity begin and end, and who comes within that community and who is outside it and constitutes an actual or, a potential threat to the security and safety of its members. But, also one of the most permanent features of human development has been that these boundaries have to keep changing and, generally, expanding in order to incorporate others, who do not have the same ancestry, but who move in due to all sorts of factors and constitute a dynamic factor in improving the cultural, technological, economic and even political levels of the community. Human progress at all levels, even at the level of genetic development, is inseparable from immigration and the inter-mixing of different groups to form new groups. But, this process always challenges the existing order and generates tension, stresses, which can be used to set off violent conflicts. These are lessons of history we have to face in Nigeria, as others are facing them in all countries of the world.

Nigeria: Ethnicity, Location And Relationships to Christianity or to a local indigenous religion, and Congo family, related to the idoma and Igala of region, history, and leadership among Nigeria s peoples. http://www.carnelian-international.com/nigeria/Ethnicity.htm
Extractions: The best known of the northern peoples, often spoken of as coterminous with the north, are the Hausa. The term refers also to a language spoken indigenously by savanna peoples spread across the far north from Nigeria's western boundary eastward to Borno State and into much of the territory of southern Niger. The core area lies in the region in the north and northwest where about 30 percent of all Hausa could be found. It also includes a common set of cultural practices and, with some notable exceptions, Islamic emirates that originally comprised a series of centralized governments and their surrounding subject towns and villages. These pre colonial emirates were still major features of local government in 1990. Each had a central citadel town that housed its ruling group of nobles and royalty served as the administrative, judicial, and military organization of these states. Traditionally, the major towns were also trading centres; some such as Kano, Zaria, or Katsina were urban conglomerations with populations of 25,000 to 100,000 in the nineteenth century. They had central markets, special wards for foreign traders, complex organizations of craft specialists, and religious leaders and organizations. They administered a hinterland of subject settlements through a hierarchy of officials, and they interacted with other states and ethnic groups in the region by links of warfare, raiding, trade, tribute, and alliances.

Extractions: The term bilingual (or multilingual) can be used in various ways. In reference to an individual, it generally means someone who speaks two languages (or more, in the case of a multilingual person). When used in reference to groups of people or countries, it may describe a situation where people speaking different languages live in the same political or social unit. Obviously, this situation exists around the world. Examples of officially bilingual countries are Canada and Belgium. Multilingual contries include Singapore, South Africa, and Switzerland. As a result, we can say that a person is bilingual (speaks two languages) or is multilingual (speaks multiple languages, also called polygolt). Or we can say that a country is bilingual or multilingual. There have been a number of studies on bilingual people by various linguists and other social scientists. I will focus here on some of the legal issues presented by bilingualism. Like Sweden, almost all western European nations are linguistically diverse not just because of recent immigration; most contain indigenous minorities as well. Great Britain, for instance, has remnants of Celtic languages which were once spoken throughout the British isles: Scottish, Welsh, and Irish Gaelic, as well as Cornish and Manx, which are severely threatened or have died out in relatively recent times. Germany has a Sorbian (or Wendish) speaking minority in the east, and Frisian speakers in the north (Frisian is closely related to English). The Netherlands, whose official language is Dutch, also has around half a million Frisian speakers. Both Germany and the Netherlands have substantial immigrant communities, who speak eastern and southern European, as well as north African, languages.

Extractions: As Power Blocs Implode By Yusuf Tuggar [KANO] ytuggar@yahoo.com Dear Louis Odion, With reference to your THISDAY editorial dated Friday, 18 th January, I beg your indulgence to make the following contribution. Your attempt to analogize the North and Southwest vis-à-vis power blocks was a noble failure. The Gamji Club and Turaki Group you mentioned as examples of bodies being resurrected to haunt the Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) are actually its building blocks, along with the likes of the Unity and Development Foundation . You do not seem to fully comprehend the innate democratic nature of politics in the North, which you perhaps inadvertently alluded to when you hinted on Awos disdain for dissent. In keeping with Northern Nigerias heritage of entertaining and even encouraging discourse as fertilizer for the polity, the ACF as the regions umbrella organization has to allow for divergence of views. This tradition goes beyond the Sardauna era: Shehu Usman Danfodio, his brother Abdullahi Fodio and his son Sultan Bello engaged in such continuous debating in the 19 th Working with the flawed premise that the ACF is structured the same way as Afenifere leads you to assume that M.D. Yusufu is the
