    Artificial Intelligence: The Missing Critical Component in Nigeria’s Security Architecture
    (LAJOHIS, 2021) Adewunmi, Falode; Babajimi O., Faseke; Chukwuma, Ikeanyichukwu
    Nigeria, a country of over 200 million people, has been battling with various National security threats since independence in 1960. Some of these core threats include religious extremism, ethnic conflicts, poor public health facilities, porous and poorly-manned borders; and, added to these in the 21st century are terrorism, insurgency, banditry and cybercrimes. This study discovers that the country has deployed various multi-levered measures that are a mix of both traditional defence mechanisms and socio-economic and political measures designed to ensure the survival of the Nigerian state. However, the study discovers that artificial intelligence has zero presence in the country’s strategic policy document and doctrine. It argues that Nigeria should follow in the footsteps of countries like the United States, Russia, China, Israel and Estonia that haveeffectively integrated artificial intelligence into their overall national security architecture. This integration, it discovers, has helped in the creation of a more secured environments in such states. The study concludes by arguing strongly for the integration of artificial intelligence into the Nigerian national security architecture in the areas of cybersecurity, intelligence, defence and internal security

    A HISTORICAL BACKGROUND TO THE CHALLENGE OF NATIONAL POLITICAL LEADERSHIP IN NIGERIA
    (NIGERIAN JOURNAL OF SOCIAL STUDIES, 2015-10) Ogunbunmi, O. A.; Bamigbose, Jacob Olusola
    It is becoming an acceptable fact that leadership problem is an important challenge that faces the Nigerian polity in the contemporary age. The problem has greatly precluded sustainable growth and development of the country. This paper, therefore examines the situation and the existential realities that have networked together to precipitate the challenge of national political leadership in Nigeria. The paper discovers that the foundation of Nigeria was laid with a phenomenon that dictates the super structural political history of Nigeria that is fraught with leadership challenge after independence. Hence, the paper suggests establishment of national mechanisms that can help creates political figures with human tendencies favourable to nationhood, as well as the structures that will sustain unionism among the diverse ethnic groups in Nigeria. The work relies on qualitative analysis to address its focus. Data were sourced from books, journals, newspapers, magazines and other relevant historical documents.

    THE MYTH OF RELIGIOUS WAR: THE VATICAN INVOLVEMENT AND NIGERIA’S DEFENSIVE DIPLOMACY DURING THE BIAFRAN WAR, 1967-1970
    (KDJAS: Kenneth Dike Journal of African Studies, 2020) Faseke Oladipo, Babajimi
    The Nigerian civil war was caused by a number of factors ranging from politics to colonial legacies, as well as the fragile trust existing among the major regional and ethnic groups. All of these reached a crescendo after the coup and counter coup in 1966. The fact that the secessionist region was made up of predominantly Igbo Catholic Christians as opposed to the Muslim Hausa dominated Nigerian Sate also exacerbated the conflict. Indeed, the Biafrans made the most of this factor in selling the propaganda that the war was religious and that the Catholic Igbos were being persecuted by reason of their faith; a claim that won the sympathy of some foreign actors, including the Vatican. While the allegation of a religious war was unfounded, it calls into question how a non-material factor like religion could be so potent as to be a major determinant in influencing international actors. It was not until the religious element was decisively squashed that the Vatican involvement in the war waned, thus reinforcing the strength of faith in diplomacy. It is against this backdrop that the essay investigates the extent to which the Vatican bought Biafra’s religious war propaganda, how this influenced its participation, and the extent to which the Nigerian Military Government (FMG), as a diplomatic tactic, discredited the Pope and Vatican’s interpretation of the war as religious.

    Nigeria and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation: A Discourse in Identity, Faith and Development, 1969–2016
    (religions, 2019-03-05) Faseke Oladipo, Babajimi
    Nigeria is both a multi-ethnic and multi-religious society, with Islam and Christianity being the dominant religions. The Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) is therefore an institution that the Muslim segment of the country can readily identify with. However, there is the question of the secular posture of the country, which Christians within the polity use as an excuse to distance the country from an institution they perceive to be exclusively for Muslims. However, despite being an organization that emerged from Muslim solidarity, the OIC transcends faith to provide economic and political opportunities for member nations. The fact that Islam remains a rallying point within the OIC, however, made Nigeria’s relationship with the organization tenuous for the most part. It is against this backdrop that the paper traces the origins and evolution of Nigeria’s involvement with the OIC, identifying its cost and benefits. The essay argues that Nigeria will be the better for it if both the Christian and Muslim segments of the population embrace the OIC as a whole or are unanimous in discarding it. The divisive tendency that Nigeria’s membership breeds, however, will be detrimental to the nation’s unity and development.
