Abstract:
Abstract Until recently, queer sexuality has been on the periphery of African literary imaginations. Studies on queer sexuality have paid attention to its representations on social media, Nollywood movies, and the Nigerian print media, with scarce attention to how contemporary literary texts construct queer people’s identity. Therefore, this article presents findings from Jude Dibia’s Walking with Shadows, drawing attention to how language is co-opted to construct gay identity and advance rights advocacy. Using Bucholtz and Hall’s Tactics of Intersubjectivity, the article examines Jude Dibia’s

It begins by defining treaty supervision and describing key understandings of it in the international refugee law literature.

How the 1951 Convention relating to the Status of Refugees is supervised is presented within this Supervisory Model, by way of background. The article then moves on to its principal

Abstract:
In recent decades, Africa appeared sometimes as a neglected continent. This analytical, geopolitical and historical mistake became obvious to international leaders and to international relations scholars. It is important to underline the diversity of Africa in its various components, including its political, social, economic and cultural dimensions. It is also relevant to consider the particularly strong impacts of colonisation, (neo)colonialism and decolonisation processes on African countries and peoples. These perspectives help to better understand the positions and actions of African count

In view of the fact that the context is a major determinant in the interpretations that ecumenical theologians make with the Bible, it calls on the interpreter to re-read the text in the culture of the people.

Contemporary writers are reconceptualising him; it is the task of this thesis to demonstrate how they are doing so from a decolonial perspective. These alleged attributes represent Ogun as a wicked, bloodthirsty, arrogant and hot tempered god who only kills and makes no positive con
