Abstract:

The study examined religio-economic culture as a determinant of interest in higher education among Mbororo-Fulani citizens in Cameroon. The study sought to answer two research questions and test two hypotheses with regards to religious beliefs and pastoral nomadism, as indicators of religio-economic culture and interest in higher education. The mixed method research design was adopted and the study made use of the sequential explanatory and correctional research designs. A structured closed-ended Mbororo-Fulani Higher Education Stakeholders Questionnaire (M-HES-Q) of 17 items and a Focus Group

Abstract:

The fair-skinned people who inhabit the Sudan fringes of west Africa stretching from the Senegal valley to the shores of Lake Chad and who speak the language known as Fulfulde, are known by many names.1 They call themselves Fulbe (singular, Pullo). They are called Fulani by the Hausa of southern Nigeria, and this name has been used for them throughout Nigeria. The British call them Ful, Fulani, or Fula, while the French refer to them as Peul, Peulh, or Poulah. In Senegal the French also inadvertently call them Toucouleur or Tukulor. The Kanuri of northern Nigeria call them Fulata or Felata. In

Abstract:

The British colonial administration in implementing various Fulani cattle herder schemes in the Bamenda Grass fields of Cameroon created a cleavage between the Fulani and the indigenous communities. This cleavage made it impossible for the new people to acquire local citizenship anywhere. This eventually was used by the unscrupulous and exploitative post-colonial administrators to deprive the herdsmen of their financial and judicial rights in the Bamenda Grass fields. Oftentimes, the same was used as a wedge by the administrators against inter-ethnic solidarity between the Fulani and the indig

ABSTRACTThis article examines the tensions between memory, identity and livelihoods in the making and transformation of cultural patrimony among Fulani cattle keepers of West Africa. Two areas of cattle breeding are examined: the Grassfields of Cameroon and south-western Burkina Faso. Studies on Fulani livestock raising suggest that each group possesses a particular cattle breed that has not changed with time. While the Fulani are thought to be conservative pastoralists, their livestock management practices suggest otherwise. They cross and change cattle breeds in order to adapt to new ecologi

Parameters measured were; live weight (LW), face length (FCL), head circumference (HC), ear length (EL), neck length(NL), neck circumference(NC), height at wither(HW), body length(BL), body circumferen

Abstract:

High fertility constitutes a challenge to men’s health conditions in Nigeria, a low-income country. Religion and ethnicity are central to the current Male Fertility (MF) level in Nigeria. This study determined the relationship between Male Fertility (MF) and Religion Ethnic Interaction (REI) amidst other socio-demographic characteristics in Nigeria. Nigeria Demographic and Health Survey data, 2018 was used. Men aged 15–59 years [n = 8,786] were sampled using a multi-stage approach. Fertility was measured by the number of Children Ever Born (CEB). REI was generated using the combination of reli

Abstract:

This paper presents a case study of Fulani herdsmen in Nigeria, whose traditional ethnoveterinary practices risk being lost as the country transitions to more intensive and enclosed livestock practices. We use a planetary health framing to make visible the value of indigenous practices that are less damaging to the environment, animal welfare, and human health. Through ethnographic observation, focus group discussions (FGDs), and key stakeholder interviews, we show that the Fulani use a complex system of herbal medicines and traditional herding practices to maintain herd health, and to manage

Abstract:

Abstract The Fulani pastoralists of Nigeria, as in other parts of West Africa, are traditionally semi- sedentary or nomadic herders, and are often described as the largest nomadic group in the world. The combined effects of climate change and instability due to terrorist activities have led to massive displacement of many Nigerian Fulani households to Southwestern Nigeria in search of refuge, pasture and water for their cattle. The objective of this project was to examine the current Fulani cattle production system. In addition to obtaining data via focus groups and direct observation, a surve

Barrahlla was a simple animation dance spiced by beating drums, singing, and dancing in a concentric circle as part of a cherished culture. It neither discriminated between the sexes nor imposed initiation rites. It was staged only on eventful days. In some settlements, one could hear the drums of the traditional barrahlla dance, singing and dancing echoing periodically and especially during eventful days of the R
