Abstract

■ Newbreed politics: The war for economic justice in Nigeria by Olu Akaraogun: If the utterances of certain members of the Nigerian plutocratic elite are to be believed, there may be a change for the better, in the indeterminate future, for the poor and dispossessed Nigerian masses. ■ International scene: Ali defeat frazier in fight of the century: Before the superfight II, the contest of the century (Ali Vs. Frazier), Ali promi sed that he was going to put Joe Frazier's (smoking Joe) light out as part of his contribution to the energy crisis. ■ What married couples don't know about sex by Miss Febisola Akintelure: Much has been written about sex and the role of sex in the lives of a couple that very little is now left to be desired. We all know that to love and to be loved is an essential aspect of human nature. ■ Essay: Pan-Africanism some recent development: The Organisation of African Unity (OAU) as it emerged in 1963 was a child of compromise. Before 1963, two broad political divisions were evident on the African scene. ■ Nigerian notes: Politics of the Nigerian iron and steel industry: As far back as 1952, Nigeria had been making preparations for the establishment of an Iron and Steel Industry. ■ Newbreed interview: Gentleman Mbu by Chris Okolie: Mathew Mbu an Ogoja man in South Eastern State of Nigeria entered politics with only little qualification above Stan dard Six, the matriculation. At the age 24, he won his first election under the candidacy of N.C.N.C. ■ Entertainment: The Pop generation: Conclusion of the counter culture serial: The pop revolution in music is a fairly recent phenomenon. If I were asked to put an arbitrary date on when the revolu tion erupted, I would say the middle 1950’s.
