HOD’s Statement

The programme covers the political, economic, social, cultural and religious aspects of African History in particular and the wider world in general. Courses in International Relations are also studied. The programme adopts a concentric approach with Nigeria as the epicenter. Courses on African Historical experiences and relations with those of the world beyond are also included. This is to enable the students not only to compare and contrast African historical experiences with those of the world beyond but also to understand the dynamics of the constantly changing relationship between Africa and other continents.
