Introduction
The previous decade and half in Africa’s recent history has been signified by certain
dramatic and major developments on the continent’s political terrain. These developments have
been as diverse as they have been conflicting. According to Chitando and Tarusarira (2019),
Africa has capably contributed as major source of confrontation to political theory as different
schools of thought struggle with in relation to their dimension as well as implication. Ocloo,
Akaba and Worwui-Brown (2014) have noted that there is no proper consensus on the highly
appropriate approach for interpreting the developments which have been occurring in the
structure of the content along with the dynamics of African politics. The divergence of the
alterations at on one occasion stirring anticipations and further generating anguish has polarized
the intellectual and policy communities into Afro-optimist and Afro-pessimist groups. The
changes which have been taken place on the African political context over the past decade have
been highly multidimensional. Seth (2013) has noted that the primary changes have occurred as
much at the level of formal politics as in the domain of the informal processes which tend to
underpin the political system of the nation. The following research paper will critically analyse
the positionality or social and political context of Africa and particularly Nigeria through
sociological perspectives.
Discussion

The transitional process has listed vital shifts in African politics which requires adequate
support for their significance in Africa’s post independence history. Rowntree et al. (2015) have

The challenges of globalization for Africa are highly intense. Reports of Asongu (2014)
have claimed that globalization will continue to strengthen the interdependencies between
different countries and regions. It can further reinforce the association between the advance
nations and the rest of the world. Additionally the reform efforts of the African nations will need
to continue to be promoted by sufficient financing of concessional terms. Moreover the challenge
encountering the developing world along with African countries in particular is to outline public
policies in order to increase the potential benefits from globalization and further to reduce the
downside threats of these stabilization on marginalization. However, none of these regulations
have been established recently and majority of the African nations have been applying them for
some time. Moreover in the view of Odeh and Okoye (2014), particularly Sub-Saharan Africa
has made considerable advancement towards a macroeconomic stability whereby there has been
witnessed a continuous development in overall growth performance. On the other hand, the
restructuring of many African financial systems has been gaining momentum since the last few
years. According to Rowntree et al. (2015), throughout the continent government involvement in
economic performance has been on the refuse where administrative price regulations have been
condensed. Odeh and Okoye (2014) have noted that the process of reformation and privatizing

Akaba and Worwui-Brown (2014) have cited a classic example of Nigerian federation with 50
states to draw relevant the above claim. The constitution recognizes three tiers of government
namely the federal government, the 50 state governments as well as the 776 local governments
constituting the nation. Moreover other issues impacting governance and causing legitimacy
crisis on the African continent are the significant lack of self-regulating judiciary along with a
shortage of population state values along with a significant lack of an independent electoral
commission with low legislation power and low level of women participation in governance.
Positionality of Nigeria within the international context through theoretical lenses
At this point of the discussion, Odeh and Okoye (2014) have shed light on the
development aid to Nigeria which has been considered to be low in comparison to other African
nations and have reduced considerably since its peak in 2006. Reports of Kareem (2015) have
revealed that Nigeria has recently undergone economic modifications and even though external
players such as donors, regional organisations along with the Nigerian Diaspora in addition to
global private companies inside and outside the oil sector have been imperative influences,
research has pointed out that domestic forces have been the key drivers of the change.
Furthermore, the Nigerian National Assembly has seen as a powerful and accessible actor, even
though it has challenges and institutional limitations because of its large size and remunerations,
contentions of corruption in addition to informal and inherited structures. However, as per Lame
and Yusoff (2015), in recent years the successes of positionality of Nigeria has entailed the
election and elimination of a number of Presidents of the Senate, the channel of private
member’s bills in addition to the establishment of various committees of supervision and control.

poverty with the supposition that individuals are highly accountable for their preferences in
increasing their interests through wise investment. This theory can be applied to the context of
poverty analysis in Nigeria. Campbell (2014) has mentioned that poverty has been highly
aggravated by failure of individuals to take adequate accountability for their destinies to have a
greater and brighter future. According to Egye and Muhammad (2015) an accomplishment of
individuals in acquiring sufficient skills and trainings could lead to a loss of professional aspects
and for the lead to poverty. However, in evaluating the ways in which individuals tend to make
incorrect preferences and conflict poverty has been explained further noting that the incorrect
approach and perspective towards technical as well as vocational subjects by used in Nigeria has

effectively and on the other hand litter around in the villages and cities for jobs which are not
accessible (Kareem 2015).
Meanwhile Bakare and Edozie (2015) have focused on the progressive social theory
which does not perceive individuals as the primary source of poverty but on the other hand
focuses on economic political as well as social distortions along with marginalization which

Drawing relevance to these areas Ewetan and Urhie (2014) have noted that in Nigeria
government policies and actions exacerbate poverty. However such effective policies must be
adopted in pursuit of accurate intentions. Reports of Ahmed (2015) have revealed that the
Structural Adjustment Program (SAP) along with its several consequences in the form of
assessment of the Naira along with price rises, privatization, commercialization and appropriate
pricing of fuel products have contributed significantly to the level of poverty in the country.

Thus, there can be observed a strong correlation between the nature of governance and the extent
of poverty in Nigeria.
Among theories of African politics which has aided in the understanding the problem of
prevalent corruption mainly includes theory of two publics. Ewetan and Urhie (2014)have
argued that the most outstanding impacts of colonialism have been the emergence of two public
realms, civic public realms which associated differently with the private realm in relation to
morality. Ijewereme (2015) has cited example of Nigeria whereby only rights are expected from
the state by its citizens, who are likely to owe duties to a native sector. Consequently, the civic
public dominion has been related to unlawful and manipulative colonial rule and had no
significant ethical linkages with the private dominion. Comprehensive studies of Bakare and
Edozie (2015) have revealed that milito-bureaucratic and political elite recently has been
constitute a socio-political cult, association and groups with distinct character in Nigeria. The
politico-bureaucratic public has elicited character which shows unconstrained access to the state
wealth. According to Ijewereme (2015), such unlimited access has been found in every sector
and among all vital ethnic groups constituting the Nigerian state and has been highly monolithic
in its perspective. While clientelism and prebendalism have the potential to collectively
strengthen the political context of Nigeria, these ideas constitute separate meanings and
implications. Egye and Muhammad (2015) have noted that clientelism aids to comprehend the
mechanisms of the way class control tends to legitimize the irregular allocation of economical
resources amongst social groups and further improves the status of Nigerian political elite. As a
result, Nigerian political culture has been hinged on clientelism and prebendal politics which
further improve the understanding of the prevalence of political corruption. Thus, in the view of

Ekiti. The uninterrupted temperament of these crises has informed the slow growth rate of the
South Western state in contrast to other states of the Nigerian sub region chiefly Lagos
