    Groping in the Light: Nigeria and the Burden of Development
    (Library, Press, Publication and Book Committee, 2025-04-29) Aladegbola Isaac Adegbenga
    In the complex landscape of narratives surrounding Africa, poverty and development issues take center stage. Unarguably, the elimination of deep poverty is the primary objective of development (World Bank, 2000). The literature is saturated with statistics indicating that Africa, and specifically Nigeria, faces significant poverty and vast inequality. Almost every discourse on governance inAfrica has been reduced to discussions of development (Aladegbola, 2020a, p. 30). The severe lack of essential capabilities such as education, health care, and nutrition among the continent's poor majority poses a threat to development in Africa as a whole, and in Nigeria in particular.

    When The New Moon Rises: Envisioning The Next Horizon Of University Education In Nigeria
    (Crawford University, 2025-11-04) Peter A. Okebukola, OFR
    One of nature's most captivating celestial spectacles is the emergence of a new moon, that sublime moment when darkness surrenders to light, when obscurity gives way to radiance, and when a fresh cycle begins, laden with promise and boundless possibilities. The title of this 20th anniversary convocation lecture, "When the New Moon Rises: Envisioning the Next Horizon of University Education in Nigeria," was conceived approximately seven weeks ago during one of the most remarkable astronomical events of recent times - a blood moon eclipse.
