  • This article examines federalism, its challenges, and minority agitations for equity and development in Nigeria. It explores the geopolitical analysis to have smooth development in Nigeria and seeks to abort all or any discrimination against the minorities section of the society. This paper further suggests the methods of enhanced protection of minorities’ rights and the practice of true federalism in Nigeria. Nigerian Governments have tried to practice federalism to promote equity and minorities’ rights, but they have failed to adhere to this doctrine as stipulated in the constitution, thereby raising the question of minority marginalization in Nigeria. This article assesses that unless the Government practices federalism as enshrined in the constitution and generates resource control, power sharing, equal rights, and accountability, it may become a permanent source of geopolitical conflicts in the coming days.

  • The present study seeks to find a reliant philosophy of development in the post COVID-19 times to come. Since being contiguous, the Novelcoronavirus has switched almost every human activity uncertain all over the world. Rather the health emergency in this pandemic has strangled human existence on this planet which every country and government are fighting against. Like many others, global economy and development are under severe threat that tend us to chalk out a theorem to be mechanized for bringing the global village back into normalcy. The paper delves deeper to establish a connection of development with wellbeing, keeping human resource at the center of significance. It also measures the interrelation of wealth, economy and development with human resource and suggests a balanced prioritization of the same in terms of accelerating Gross Domestic Product (GDP). As the future after COVID 19 will not be the same like before, even after the pandemic being over, the proposed theorem tries to contemplate the global economy with a new outlook of long-term development.
