Der Artikel erörtert die Suche nach einer nigerianischen Nationalsprache seit der Unabhängigkeit 1960 und analysiert verschiedene Faktoren, die eine Einigung bisher verhindert haben.

Abstract:

Nigeria and Malaysia have almost similar historical background; both had sultan as spiritual and government leader in their major areas, colonized by British and got independence in 1960 and 1957 respectively. Presently, Malaysia has recorded human development increments from 1980 to date and aspire to be a developed country in 2020. While Nigeria has recorded poverty increments from 1980 to date and it may likely be among underdeveloped countries in 2020.

<strong>ABSTRACT</strong> <em>That corruption abounds in Nigeria is an indisputable fact (Agbiboa, 2012). The corrupt man is everywhere, the man on the street, the man next door, the man in the church or mosque, the man in the market or the departmental store, the policeman on beat patrol and the soldier at the check point (Okadigbo, 1987).  My frank and honest opinion is that anybody who can say that corruption in Nigeria has not yet become alarming is either a fool, a crook or else does not live in this country. Corruption in Nigeria has passed the alarming and entered the fatal stage (

Abstract:

That Nigeria is unstable is no longer a secret. That its instability is connected to Nigerian citizens who feel no belonging to the Nigerian entity is not to be disputed. Seeing a stable new Nigeria, with which one can identify, remains the desire of many Nigerians. By discussing the Nigerian personality, this article has been able to examine the major causes of instability in the country. Watching videos being a major means of relaxation in Nigeria, this article postulates the translation of movies as a real tool to reconstruct the Nigerian personality towards one who would feel Nigerian and

Nigeria is at the brink of failure as a state partly because of its inability to control the activities of armed non-state actors.

This parallel government system operating in many states in Nigeria have not had equal state-actor forces against them.

The phenomenon of religious politics in Nigerian is an obvious one. In political aspects such as style of governance, policy formulations and the electoral process in Nigeria, religion has been a strong determining factor. However, the influence of religion on politics in Nigeria could be both positive and negative. In other words, as religion enhances national development, so also it could be counterproductive. This paper critically discusses the influence of religion on Nigerian politics especially in the post-independence Nigeria, with emphasis on the implications for national development.

Notably, despite the countryâ€™s pole position in the economic ranking in Africa, Nigeriaâ€™s infrastructural state still falls short, which has led to negative economic growth in recent years.
