Theory and Practice of International Economic Law

By: Usman, Adamu Kyuka

This book is on international economic law, and as such unavoidably examines international economic institutions which to some extent determine the content and character of international economic law- the IMF, the World Bank, OECD, OPEC, the Paris and London Clubs of Creditors, the G8 and G20, regional economic blocs and other economic institutions. International economic law principles like the most favored nation principle, national treatment standard, rules of origin, free trade, foreign investment, loans and sundry other issues are examined by the text showing how the interest of developed nations and international financial institutions sound through these legal issues. The book interrogates international economic law than is commonly the case with mainstream texts on the subject.

My Head Master

By: Lilymjok, Kyuka

“I first time I saw the man who became my headmaster was when he rode his motorcycle past our house in Tyosa. He was a huge, dark, hairy man with big eyeballs that looked like they could see through anything and often saw through everything. His eyes were so frightening to me that I always trembled whenever he turned them on me. Not only were the eyeballs big, he had a way of baring them in the most frightening manner when he focused them on you. Older people said his father Akut was nicknamed Akut the owner of frightening eyes for pretty much the same reason. His eyeballs were said to be so big as to scare away birds whenever he entered the forest. Some people said they scared away chickens too. So he was called Akut the owner of frightening eyes.... “But Akut’s son was headmaster and no one dared pass his nickname to his son though he had passed his frightening eyes to the son. No one dared sing songs behind him the way children used to sing behind Akut his father…” Passing through and growing up in school with Akut’s son as the Headmaster, and what it took to grow up in a closely-knit community through the eyes and memory of a pupil is a story that has to be told, the story of any pupil. And this is the story…

Nigerian Oil and Gas Industry Laws

Policies, and Institutions

By: Kyuka Usman

Though predominantly on oil and gas law, this is nonetheless a veritable Reference Book on the oil and gas industry in Nigeria. It places before anyone interested in the oil and gas industry basic and critical oil and gas issues not in common circulation in existing texts on the subject. The book is arranged in such a chronological order, like reference books and dictionaries tend to be,that a lay person in going through it would now know how oil is explored and found,how oil fields may be onshore and offshore, how oil blocs are bidded for, how oil is drilled, including associated gas deposits, among others. The transportation of oil and gas, storage of oil and gas, refining of oil and processing of gas, marketing of oil and gas,the impact of oil and gas exploration, production and revenues on the Nigerian environment, politics and economy and a myriad of other issues are comprehensively covered. The book should prove most useful to the lawyer, petroleum geologist, petroleum engineer, policy makers, investors, local and international development agencies and bodies, lecturers and students specialising in wide ranging subjects as economics, development studies, engineering, management, public administration, insurance, marketing, accounting and finance.

The Mad Professor of Babeldu

By: Adamu Kyuka Usman

Prof. Philjez is not the everyday professor. His mind passes the world through a mystic calculus and comes out with quaint theorems. His eyes views life through a cosmic geometry, and he formulates shocking hypothesis. Speaking more to animals and plants than to human beings, Prof. Philjez takes flight to the world of ideas from which he never returns. You need to be a little mad to read this book.

The Heart of Jacob

By: Kyuka Lilymjok

Jacob prospers as a moneylender and pig merchant by taking advantage of other peoples misfortunes. But when he seeks to exploit the famine afflicting his village Tounga by lending money at high interest rates to poor villagers, he does not reckon what a sacrilege his pigs would commit which give the people an opportunity to feast on his own misfortune. When this happens community gives way to individual desires, and the stomach dictates to the head what it should think and believe in. Reason bends to absurdity and custom bows to bizarre novelty. Life explodes into a sinister mess that points to only one outcome: Jacob and societys ultimate ruin.

The Mad Professor of Babeldu

By: Adamu Kyuka Usman Lilymjok

The Mad Professor of Babeldu is a work of fiction with an eccentric professor as its major character. Sitting alone in his farmhouse, Professor Philjez, in a profound and sometimes comic manner, talks on a variety of issues from politics to religion, economics, culture, science, and a myriad of other issues. This book no doubt will resonate with many readers because of its unusual character and profound ideas. Bizarre, comical, shocking, profound, and perhaps blasphemous are all adjectives aptly descriptive of The Mad Professor of Babeldu. Driven by Professor Philjez, its eccentric major character, this book despairs and inspires, saddens and excites, frightens and soothes, sobers and intoxicates a reader. It is a mixed grille. It is a jolly, hearty party of ideas that cannot fail to go away with gold medals in any Olympic contest of ideas.

Bivan's House

By: Adamu Kyuka Usman

Talgon, a small-time contractor in the West African nation called Bivans House, sets out to be honest in his dealings but finds himself alone in a sizzling corruption that smears the virtuous as much as the crook. In Bivans House, the vulture, by his opportunism, is feasting on the ruins of his preys without pity; the tortoise, by his cunning, is running faster than the antelope to collect, without remorse, prizes he has not won; and the rat, by his thievery, is filling his barns with the harvest of the rabbit without regret. Flames of violence, frauds, and scams blaze a trail that leaves Talgon wondering how it all began and where it will leave the West African nation called Bivans House.

Environmental Protection Law and Practice

By: Usman, Adamu Kyuka

This is basic text which offers a comprehensive approach to the consideration of environmental protection law and practice. Essential concepts and issues in Environmental science, including global warming caused by greenhouse effect, negative and positive feedback, the Gala hypothesis, the Chaos theory, environmental economics principles of cost-benefit analysis, tradable permits, and other topics, have been explained in such detailed but straightforward manner for the law student, law lecturer, legal practitioner and even the general reader, who may otherwise feel unfamiliar with some of these scientific subjects critical to appreciating the law in the area, to comprehend quite easily. Of tremendous benefit of the legal practitioner, researchers and judges, this book also examines a lot of cases of environmental protection both in Nigeria and foreign jurisdictions, such as the United Kingdom, United States, India, the Philippines, and a host of other countries mostly within the common law tradition. The intention is to give life to the cold principles of environmental protection law by examining the cases in which environmental legal principles have been applied. It is hoped that environmental law students, law lecturers, legal practitioners and policymakers should find this book indispensible, and judges, too, in their adjudication of technical environmental matters.
