The largest ethnic groups include Hausa consisting 23%, Fulani constituting 6% of the population, Yoruba 21% and Igbo 19%. Every Nigerian is legitimated constitutionally to live and engage in lawful business and relationship anywhere in the country; however, recent expansionist tendencies of Fulani to virtually every city in Southern-Nigeria, has become inimical to territorial policies, security, religious, social and economic development. Fulani sporadic migration has generated violent clashes, causing death, property loss, disregard for civility, desecration of religious institutions and cultural values. Farmlands have been forcefully taken over; and schools turned grazing fields and residences. Ethnic and religious cleavages and inter-ethnic fears and tensions currently pervade Nigeria. Such fear of ethnic politicization bedeviled Kenya, Rwanda and Burundi to ment...

The Islamic sect is a group of "People Committed to the propagation of the Prophet's Teachings and Jihad" opposing western education. Their operations have degenerated into armed conflict, insurgency and terrorism, causing untold devastation and economic loss to some states of the federation. However, their significance in the socio-economic crisis of Borno State has not been adequately reported. This is the lacuna filled by this paper. The study adopted both primary and secondary sources of research instruments. The study discovered that Boko Haram insurgency has crippled markets, business activities and blocked the trade routes in Borno State. About 10,000 Eastern and South western business people fled the state; international business entrepreneurs from Chad, Cameroon and Niger returned to their countries; these affected the ...

It also requires the knowledge of their impact in promoting career advancement in the ministry and as a means of expanding one’s ministry. This paper examined Paul’s concepts of "OIKODOMEN" (Rom.15:2) and "NOUTHETEIN" (Rom.15:14) in relation to leadership mentoring in the ministry. The study intends to discover how to apply this mentoring strategies to leadership challenges in the contemporary Nigerian church. Even though Paul has never been to Rome as at the time of writing this letter, he had attempted to mentor the Roman church from a distance. We must ask what was responsible for the success of Paul’s mission in the Apostolic mission stations and how he successfully transferred leadership to his acolytes in the Roman church. How can the study of Paul’s concepts of "OIKODOMEN" (Rom.15:2) and "NOUTHETEIN" (Rom.15:14) be relevant in the context of contemporary Nigerian church? In facing the leadership challenges that the church may have in future, what role can online or computer-assisted mentoring relationships play? The research method employed in this study is both exegetical and hermeneutical. It is hoped that such ethical strategies can help Nigeria’s Church leaders to develop protégés who are committed, motivated and personally satisfied by their services; and are prepared to work to please God and build up their neighbours.
