The Value of a B.A LGDS Degree; a Labour Market Perspective

Local Government and Development Studies (LGDS) is a unique discipline being offered at Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria and IBB University, Lapai. This course is a multidisciplinary one that arms students with skills cutting across different fields of human endeavor.  It is the melding of two independent but mutually reinforcing disciplines that have been noted to affect the lives of people at the grassroots.  It is the unification of Local Government Administration as an academic discipline and Development Studies. Whilst the former has been around for quite a while, the latter is a budding discipline that only very few universities around the world offer.

EXTENSION ACTIVITIES OF THE VARIOUS DEPARTMENTS IN NIGERIAN LOCAL GOVERNMENT

Introduction   

A good understanding of the structural-functional analysis tells us that every structure is meant to perform a function. The structures of local government were designed to perform certain functions. Hence, it is important to point out that the way and manner these structures are designed will go a long way in determining how far it will live up to the expectation of delivering the goods to the people. Local government is said to be that level of government that is closest to the people, such that it is that level of government that is supposed to meet the needs of the people most efficiently. Thus, to achieve this end local government carryout what is known as Extension Service.

The Irresponsible Giant

The Nigerian state is like a man who is highly respected in the eyes of the public. He goes out to top-notch restaurants  and bars, buy the most expensive food and drinks for himself and enjoy, wears expensive dresses and drives the latest cars. He attends important functions and interacts with other men of higher, equal and lower status as he. 

  

Meanwhile, at home, his children are hungry, they go about begging their  neighbours for food, wear tattered clothes and their school fees aren't paid. The furniture in the sitting room are broken, utility bills aren't paid, his many wives and children are fighting amongst themselves.  

Yet this man, the Nigerian state, goes about thumping his chest and calling himself a giant. He is indeed an irresponsible giant!

Invention, Innovation and Enterprise (part 1)

Back in my days at Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, I came across two books that really gave me insights on the difference between Invention and Innovation and how they relate to entrepreneurship. The one, titled Innovation, by William Kingston, made a categorization of different creative types that drives society, and the other titled The Challenge of Innovation, by John Adair, tells of how ideas are converted into products and into profit through the combined efforts of certain characters. These books, in my opinion, are good reads and I strongly recommend them for anybody interested in knowing the nitty-gritty of Innovation.

The burning of fossil fuel and emission of carbon into the atmosphere are not only costly for businesses, the economy and environment, but are also viewed as unethical in our green economies of today. The need to change over from traditional energy systems to alternative energy sources has never before been so
