Abstract:

Purpose This paper aims to present the Igbo management philosophy as having the potential to bring about success in Africa and propose a framework that comprises a set of values and three key institutions: the marketplace, the family and the apprenticeship system. The paper shows that effective leaders are servant-leaders who sacrifice for others. Design/methodology/approach This paper relied on earlier and contemporary peer-reviewed, news media and books. These materials offered insight into what Igbos believed, how they behaved and how they historically organized their lives. Materials autho

Abstract:

Igbo studies, especially on political organisations, have enjoyed robust scholarly attention in historical discourse in recent times. The Igbo, unlike their immediate neighbours such as Benin (Edo) and the Igala, ran two parallel systems of government in the pre-colonial period. While some practised a centralised system of government, a reasonable number of Igbo communities contended with decentralised systems. Some reasons for the reign of peace and harmony amongst the Igbo have remained largely uninvestigated and unappreciated. The role of deities as the judicial arm of government in the def

Abstract:

This study explored the significance of including the study of some unrecognized Igbo cultural heritage into the primary education curriculum through the lens of Afrofuturism/African futurism. Drawing from data sourced from interviews conducted among individuals aged 75 years and above, this study illuminates the cultural, nutritional, and educational dimensions of integrating these elements into early education. From an Afrofuturist perspective, education serves as a vehicle for cultural preservation, empowerment, and envisioning alternative futures rooted in African heritage. The inclusion o

Abstract:

This paper explores the potential for an innovative, hybrid vocational education framework—the Global Adaptive Apprenticeship Model (GAAM)— that integrates the strengths of Nigeria‘s indigenous apprenticeship systems, namely the Yoruba Apprenticeship Training Scheme (YATS) and the Igbo Apprenticeship System (IAS), with the formalized German Dual Vocational Training Model. Responding to persistent global challenges such as skills mismatch, youth unemployment, and rapid technological change, this study adopts a qualitative, comparative methodology, synthesizing a wide body of literature from edu

Abstract:

This basic qualitative study investigates the origins and cultural identity of the Ogwashi-Uku people of Delta State, Nigeria, paying particular attention to both Benin and Nri Igbo ancestral influences. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and questionnaires administered to elders and leaders from nine quarters of Ogwashi-Uku—namely Ikelike, Umudei, Ogbe Ubu, Ogbe Aho, Agidiase, Agidiehe, Azungwu, Ogbe Umu Okwuni, and Ogbe Ihago. Findings indicate that community members widely acknowledge Benin ancestry, yet many also highlight Igbo connections, reflecting a blended heritage. Prese

Abstract:

This article analyzes how contemporary queer African writing participates in decoloniality by queering (hetero)normative knowledge systems for social and epistemic transformation. In my reading of Akwaeke Emezi’s The Death of Vivek Oji (2020), I argue that Trans/Queer African literature participates in a very important epistemic project of counterfactualism by offering alternatives to perceived and systemically imposed African gender and sexual realities. The novel achieves this by deconstructing the hetero-naturalization of temporality to locate queer time and queer space within indigenous Af

Abstract: The paper reviews the history of Nigerian Women's suppression. From an earlier focus on women's suppression in the histories of religion, marriage, and education, this work takes on more recent studies by analyzing spheres of political participation to reveal the historical imbalance of women in political positions. This historiography counters previous work by the scholar, acknowledging women's advocacy for participation in domains traditionally dominated by men.

While many countries have developed green building rating systems (GBRSs) to promote the concept of green buildings, it is difficult for designers to achieve better sustainability in the design process when using the real-time green building rating score as a reference. This paper proposes an intelligent green building rating (iGBR) framework supported by a semantic and social approach to realize real-time rating in building design. The framework features four components: (1) An ontology that is used to encapsulate the knowledge of green building rating, (2) score calculation rules that are en

Abstract:

As a core component of photovoltaic power generation systems, insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) modules continually suffer from severe temperature swings due to complex operation conditions and various environmental conditions, resulting in fatigue failure. The junction temperature prediction guarantees that the IGBT module operates within the safety threshold. The thermal equivalent circuit model is a common approach to predicting junction temperature. However, the model parameters are easily affected by the solder aging. An accurate temperature prediction by the model is impossible du

The challenge of decolonizing Scripture through culture remains a central concern in African theological discourse. While previous studies have broadly advocated for contextual and postcolonial approaches to biblical interpretation, few have offered a sustained, text-specific, and culturally grounded hermeneutic rooted in a particular African worldview. This study addresses that lacuna by advancing an Igbo-centred reinterpretation of 1 Corinthians 9:22, critically engaging Western hermeneutical paradigms and reimagining Scripture through the lens of Igbo cultural identity.
