Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner. The purpose of this study was to explore the way of life of ordinary urban residents in cities of varying sizes and types in various parts of Nigeria, especially in regard to social networks and activities, occupational and migration careers, and attitudes toward urban life, education and members of ethnic groups. Main Topics: Variables Dr Peil's study was designed as a comparative study of the daily life of people living in cities in various parts of Nigeria, these cities differing in size and composition. Data were collected by oral interviewing, supplemented by observation, mapping, recording of schools, churches, health facilities, government services, craftsmen, etc. Only the interviewing data (from cities Ajegunle, Kikuri, Abeokuta and Aba) have been supplied to the Archive. To quote from Dr Peil's report: 'Investigation of social networks provides a framework for testing hypotheses about social change and modernity, adjustment to urban life and the social effects of various types of housing and various kinds of employment. Identical studies of several cities permit analysis of the effects of city size, heterogeneity and social structure on the lives of the inhabitants. . . . The 'quality of life' measured in this study is concerned with items which can be easily reported by individuals rather than with official statistics. . . . It was also hoped that this study would be useful to urban planners, who generally have very little information on what the average family makes of its life in town. What are their expectations and their aspirations? What amenities do they most appreciate and most miss? How much urban experience have they had and how long can they be expected to stay, especially in the face of unemployment? How much unemployment is there and how are the unemployed supported?. . .' Hence, there is detailed demographic information for a general picture of the population of the four cities. The housing section collects details on household composition, overcrowding, landlords and inter-ethnic mixing. Marriage and kinship information indicates the numbers and location of wives and children, attitudes and practices in educating children, contacts with relatives in town and at home, and plans for returning home. A social life section deals with membership in associations, and contacts with co-tenants, workmates and friends. Information is also collected on how urban dwellers handle problems, and there is detailed occupational and migration career data. Approximately 100 houses were taken in each city, by systematic sampling from a series of random starts, designed to represent all parts of the community being studied. About 200 interviews were completed in each city, the individuals being chosen from census sheets on a quota basis to ensure the inclusion of men and women in various age, occupational, educational, ethnic and religious and migratory categories Face-to-face interview

This dataset is about books. It has 1 row and is filtered where the book is Conflict reporting strategies and the identities of ethnic and religious communities in Jos, Nigeria. It features 7 columns including author, publication date, language, and book publisher.

The fellowship examines how state institutions in Africa and Western Europe generate identity discourses and political behaviours among young people from minority groups. First it updates and disseminates the results of research (doctoral and postdoctoral) on Nigeria on the relationship between the politics of oil, ethnic group identity formation and political mobilisation amongst members of a minority group - the Ijaw. Second it refines its empirical and theoretical conclusions and tests their applicability to two countries of Western Europe; France and the UK, where it advances and completes ongoing research on how different approaches to 'integration' and public policy practice influence identity formation amongst young 'minority' citizens of West African descent; Senegalese origin in the case of France and Nigerian origin in the case of the UK. The methodology is comparative, historical and multi disciplinary. It draws on theoretical approaches from political sociology and history which emphasise the socially constructed nature of ethnicity and which have been tested out in Nigeria, to analyse new qualitative data generated from case study research amongst minority communities in Paris and London, using anthropological tools (participant observation and semi structured interviews) and drawing from existing quantitative data sets.

Nigeria is one of the largest, socially and culturally most diversified countries in Africa. Because of its diversity of people and culture, Nigeria over the years has been distinguished in the field of arts. The diversity of the country is reflected in the fact that the country has over 250 identified ethnic groups and three large ethno-linguistic entities. The cultural life in Nigeria is marked by tradition and traditional form of cultural events like festivals, arts exhibition, music and dance. This paper will examine the historical trends of arts and festivals as a manifestation of the people’s culture. It will identify several festivals among the different cultural groups in Nigeria and also reveal the hidden treasure of Nigerian culture, its existence and diversity. It will analyze the different events that make up the festivals and survey its contribution to national development. At the end, the paper by contributing to knowledge, will present vivid account of cultural life in Nigeria both at the states and national levels. It will present festival as a tool for the promotion of culture, arts, national unity, and personal interaction, the coming together of different ethnic groups. Equally, the paper will identify culture as continuous and ever changing. This paper made use of both the primary and secondary sources of data collection which includes personal experiences and observations, use of library; published and unpublished materials, life histories, government reports, historical data and information along with previous research. It presents both historical and present form of happenings in the society today and the world at large. One of the findings was that cultural festivals aid the promotion of national unity and stability by encouraging mutual coexistence and relationship among the people. Among other recommendations, it was recommended that there is need to encourage and promote festivals at the national, state and local levels in the country for generations to come as this will encourage cultural identity and pride among the people of Nigerians.

Abstract

The Afrobarometer is a comparative series of public attitude surveys that assess African citizen's attitudes to democracy and governance, markets, and civil society, among other topics. The surveys have been undertaken at periodic intervals since 1999. The Afrobarometer's coverage has increased over time. Round 1 (1999-2001) initially covered 7 countries and was later extended to 12 countries. Round 2 (2002-2004) surveyed citizens in 16 countries. Round 3 (2005-2006) 18 countries, Round 4 (2008) 20 countries, Round 5 (2011-2013) 34 countries, Round 6 (2014-2015) 36 countries, Round 7 (2016-2018) 34 countries, and Round 8 (2019-2021). The survey covered 39 countries in Round 9 (2021-2023).

Sampling procedure

Afrobarometer uses national probability samples designed to meet the following criteria. Samples are designed to generate a sample that is a representative cross-section of all citizens of voting age in a given country. The goal is to give every adult citizen an equal and known chance of being selected for an interview. They achieve this by:

• using random selection methods at every stage of sampling; • sampling at all stages with probability proportionate to population size wherever possible to ensure that larger (i.e., more populated) geographic units have a proportionally greater probability of being chosen into the sample.

The sampling universe normally includes all citizens age 18 and older. As a standard practice, we exclude people living in institutionalized settings, such as students in dormitories, patients in hospitals, and persons in prisons or nursing homes. Occasionally, we must also exclude people living in areas determined to be inaccessible due to conflict or insecurity. Any such exclusion is noted in the technical information report (TIR) that accompanies each data set.

Sample size and design Samples usually include either 1,200 or 2,400 cases. A randomly selected sample of n=1200 cases allows inferences to national adult populations with a margin of sampling error of no more than +/-2.8% with a confidence level of 95 percent. With a sample size of n=2400, the margin of error decreases to +/-2.0% at 95 percent confidence level.

The sample design is a clustered, stratified, multi-stage, area probability sample. Specifically, we first stratify the sample according to the main sub-national unit of government (state, province, region, etc.) and by urban or rural location.

Area stratification reduces the likelihood that distinctive ethnic or language groups are left out of the sample. Afrobarometer occasionally purposely oversamples certain populations that are politically significant within a country to ensure that the size of the sub-sample is large enough to be analysed. Any oversamples is noted in the TIR.

Sample stages Samples are drawn in either four or five stages:

Stage 1: In rural areas only, the first stage is to draw secondary sampling units (SSUs). SSUs are not used in urban areas, and in some countries they are not used in rural areas. See the TIR that accompanies each data set for specific details on the sample in any given country. Stage 2: We randomly select primary sampling units (PSU). Stage 3: We then randomly select sampling start points. Stage 4: Interviewers then randomly select households. Stage 5: Within the household, the interviewer randomly selects an individual respondent. Each interviewer alternates in each household between interviewing a man and interviewing a woman to ensure gender balance in the sample.

Universe

The sample universe for Afrobarometer surveys includes all citizens of voting age within the country. In other words, we exclude anyone who is not a citizen and anyone who has not attained this age (usually 18 years) on the day of the survey. Also excluded are areas determined to be either inaccessible or not relevant to the study, such as those experiencing armed conflict or natural disasters, as well as national parks and game reserves. As a matter of practice, we have also excluded people living in institutionalized settings, such as students in dormitories and persons in prisons or nursing homes.

Afrobarometer uses national probability samples designed to meet the following criteria. Samples are designed to generate a sample that is a representative cross-section of all citizens of voting age in a given country. The goal is to give every adult citizen an equal and known chance of being selected for an interview. They achieve this by:

• using random selection methods at every stage of sampling; • sampling at all stages with probability proportionate to population size wherever possible to ensure that larger (i.e., more populated) geographic units have a proportionally greater probability of being chosen into the sample.

The sampling universe normally includes all citizens age 18 and older. As a standard practice, we exclude people living in institutionalized settings, such as students in dormitories, patients in hospitals, and persons in prisons or nursing homes. Occasionally, we must also exclude people living in areas determined to be inaccessible due to conflict or insecurity. Any such exclusion is noted in the technical information report (TIR) that accompanies each data set.

Sample size and design Samples usually include either 1,200 or 2,400 cases. A randomly selected sample of n=1200 cases allows inferences to national adult populations with a margin of sampling error of no more than +/-2.8% with a confidence level of 95 percent. With a sample size of n=2400, the margin of error decreases to +/-2.0% at 95 percent confidence level.

The sample design is a clustered, stratified, multi-stage, area probability sample. Specifically, we first stratify the sample according to the main sub-national unit of government (state, province, region, etc.) and by urban or rural location.

Area stratification reduces the likelihood that distinctive ethnic or language groups are left out of the sample. Afrobarometer occasionally purposely oversamples certain populations that are politically significant within a country to ensure that the size of the sub-sample is large enough to be analysed. Any oversamples is noted in the TIR.

Sample stages Samples are drawn in either four or five stages:

Stage 1: In rural areas only, the first stage is to draw secondary sampling units (SSUs). SSUs are not used in urban areas, and in some countries they are not used in rural areas. See the TIR that accompanies each data set for specific details on the sample in any given country. Stage 2: We randomly select primary sampling units (PSU). Stage 3: We then randomly select sampling start points. Stage 4: Interviewers then randomly select households. Stage 5: Within the household, the interviewer randomly selects an individual respondent. Each interviewer alternates in each household between interviewing a man and interviewing a woman to ensure gender balance in the sample.

To keep the costs and logistics of fieldwork within manageable limits, eight interviews are clustered within each selected PSU.

The overall ACE project is motivated by the need to better understand the behaviour of non-state armed groups in perpetrating atrocity crimes such as crimes against humanity, ethnic cleansing and war crimes. The data collection is based on six countries Central African Republic, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Iraq, Nigeria, Syria, and Somalia with a focus on non-state actor perpetrated atrocity events. The aim is to have a fine-grained event data collection of different types of atrocity crimes in these countries. These event types are derived from the Rome Statute. More specifically, the unit of observation in ACE is the event where a named state or non-state actor is involved on a given day in a specific location. Each individual event is covered with the best precision regarding the type of event, location, perpetrator and victims.Since 2010, there has been a 'dramatic resurgence' of violent conflict around the world (United Nations, 2018, p. v). As part of this trend, mass atrocity crimes, defined as genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity, and ethnic cleansing (GWCE), have become 'the new normal' (Human Rights Watch 2018). At this time of writing, the Global Centre for the Responsibility to Protect (GCR2P) identifies seven countries that are 'currently' experiencing GWCE, three at 'imminent risk', seven of 'serious concern', and thirteen being 'monitored' because they have experienced GWCE in the recent past (Global Centre for the Responsibility to Protect 2019). These crises have seen millions of people killed, tens of thousands raped, and underpin an unprecedented refugee crisis. Although mass violence is not a new phenomenon, non-state armed groups such as Al Qaeda, Islamic State, Boko Haram, Lord's Resistance Army, and Al-Shabaab are increasingly playing a critical role in the perpetration of atrocity crimes leading to key policymakers calling for urgent research on this specific threat (see case for support). Responding to this new reality, the project answers the following primary research question: under what conditions do non-state armed groups perpetrate GWCE? The funding will enable us to develop the first dataset in the world that collects systematic evidence on non-state armed groups perpetrating GWCE, which we call 'Atrocity Crime Events' (ACE) dataset. To do this, we will analyse six countries and three themes. The former refers to the Central African Republic, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Iraq, Nigeria, Syria and Somalia. The latter focuses on i) interactions, for example, between the non-state armed group[s] themselves, other actors such as the government, and external actors such as UN peacekeepers, ii) local factors, for instance, geography, economics, population density, as well as natural resources, and iii) group characteristics, such as age, ideology, and external support. The scientific impact develops in three stages. First, the unique dataset 'ACE' will provide the necessary information to run statistical analysis to explain why, when, and where mass atrocities happen in our six chosen countries. Second, we will develop hypothesis based on our three themes that can be tested through future academic inquiry. Third, the project seeks to drive forward quantitative research into the causes of non-state armed groups perpetrating mass violence. This advance in knowledge will allow us to provide policy recommendations in order to improve international, regional, and national strategies toward mass atrocity prevention with a specific focus on policymakers in the United Nations (UN), the European Union (EU), the United Kingdom (UK), and Africa (the four case study governments and organisations such as the African Union). We will work with three project partners, GCR2P (New York and Geneva), Aegis Trust (Kigali), and Protection Approaches (London), as well as an advisory board consisting of Alex Bellamy, Gyorgy Tatar, Ivan Simonovic, Karen E. Smith, and Kristian Skrede Gleditsch. As part of our impact strategy, we will hold end of project workshops in London, New York, and Kigali. Outputs will include i) publicly available dataset and codebook, ii) six articles in high ranking journals, iii) an Analysis Framework for the United Nations Office on Genocide Prevention and the RtoP, iv) co-created policy reports with each project partner focusing on the UN, the UK, the EU, and African mass atrocity prevention strategies, v) blogposts, vi) infographics, and vii) presentations at conferences and policy-orientated meetings. The data collection methodology is based on coding news reports extracted from LexisNexis. The extraction of news reports from LexisNexis has been narrowed down by using specific search terms for each event type, including the countries in this project. The focus is primarily on English language sources and where necessary, the geography filter is used to narrow down results based on the location of the event. Once a set of news reports have been identified from Lexis Nexis, the coders skim through the reports based on headlines/short descriptions and select to read through the ones that seem to constitute an event (as opposed to, for example, reports about UN meetings to discuss atrocities etc.). The coders then write a short description of the event on the dataset and code the rest of the variables in the dataset with best precision possible. The coding of the events is based on ACE codebook and is conducted by human coders, each specialising in one of the countries in question.
