In the case of Nigeria, football is one of the few positive national unifying forces, and, when studied from a historical perspective, provides an alternative history of Nigeria that offers a refreshing picture of growth, adoption, adaptation, and unity. In this article, football's place in Nigerian history is examined at a particularly poignant period when, in an effort to garner support for the war effort against Nazi Germany, promises were made that could be interpreted to imply impending independence. In the context of this, Nnamdi Azikiwe, a rising anti-colonial political force, organized two football tours between 1941 and 1943 under the guise of supporting the war effort. Azikiwe used the cover of the tours to press his demands for reform and democracy, in spite of the heightened wartime censorship. The use of football as a means for mass mobilization is proof not only of the growing importance of football to Nigerians, but also that using the very cultural forms of the colonial authorities was often the most effective means of protesting against them.

Because of the lack of proper attention, especially in the provision of amenities, Nigeria's rural areas have increasingly become quantitatively depopulated and progressively less attractive for social and economic investments, even as the cities have overtime become physically congested, socially unhealthy and generally uneconomic to maintain. The genesis of this unbalanced development could be traced to the colonial period. The reasons are not farfetched. It ran contrary to colonial policy, which emphasized the exploitation of local resources for the development of the British Empire. Unfortunately, the post-independence administrations found it convenient to continue with this policy, perhaps because of its immediate benefits. Hence, the paper argues that for as long as this biased development approach continues in the country, Nigeria's rural communities will remain backward and unattractive, and this will in turn retard the national economy.

After discussing these clusters, it argues that in spite of paradigmatic differences, there are also areas of agreement in the literature. For one thing, it is clear that before the end of World War II, and therefore before the Cold War acquired its distinctiveness, the U.S. had a well-articulated vision of the world order it desired in place of the one shattered by World War II: this was essentially an international political economy which conformed with, protected and promoted U.S. prosperity and security. But at the same time, American leaders convinced themselves that the Soviets were a potential threat to this objective. The evidence is clear that this conviction derived from an ingrained American aversion to the Soviet Union which dates back to the 1917 Bolshevik revolution. In this context, the Cold War began when it became clear that Moscow would not participate in the multilateral global order envisioned and led by Washington.

This is at conflict with the interests of the borderland communities who desire unfettered access to their kith and kin severed by the artificial boundaries. In addition, the application of complex legal and geometric technicalities in the management of border disputes, in preference to the more humanistic factor of culture creates discord in the borderland. This paper contends that the borderland possesses an organic and human character with pervasive cultural values and usages which are capable of being harnessed in policy formulation. The Nigeria – Cameroon experiment would be instructive for espousing the potency of culture for boundary management in Africa.

It is evident in the paper that party discipline is at the low ebb in the Fourth Republic when compared with previous regimes. This is discernible from the ease with which party members cross-carpet from one party to the other thus betraying the public trust reposed in them by the electorate who voted them into their respective elective offices. Party disagreements and differences are often advertised regrettably in the print and electronic media. The paper argues that every political party should institutionalize party primaries as a vehicle to promote democratic culture and enhance democratic political socialization. None of the three dominant parties—the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), the All Nigerian Peoples Party (ANPP), and the Alliance for Democracy—conducted any meaningful primaries. Even when primaries were conducted these were marked by irregularities and discontent. Indeed candidates were largely selected on the basis of preferment. The paper contends that any political party whose members are not sufficiently disciplined to conduct effective primaries cannot succeed in any inter-party political process.
