African Christianity's Disposition to African Identity and Sociological Matters Arising
(Baptist Press, Ibadan, 2019) Ayantayo, J. K.; Ayantayo, N. G.
Church historians, anthropologists, and sociologists, among others, have written extensively on the interface between African Christianity and African culture, with insignificant attention paid to the issue of identity. This paper, in the attempt at filling the lacuna in presious studies, examined generally the disposition of African Christianity particularly some selected Pentecostal churches to African‘s cultural and traditional religious identity with emphasis on their sociological implications. Leaning on interx’iews conducted with members of selected churches such as African Independent and Pentecostal churches such at Mountain of Fire and Miracle Ministries. The Apostolic Church. Christ Apostolic Church, and Living Faith Church in Ibadan, there is further explication of issues bothering on interface between African Christianity, cultural and traditional religious identity in Nigeria. Data obtained were analyzed using content analysis and discussed within the ambit of Emile Durkheim's functional theory of religion. Consequently, it is revealed that the teachings and practices of selected churches affected positively and negatively African cultural elements such as traditional names, marital statics and social grouping. This, therefore, calls for a review of the practical interface between African Christianity and African cultural practices in such a way that the two would harmoniously work towards the production of a society that blends tradition with modernity.

(Anchor books Publisher, 2018) Ayantayo, J. K.; Ayantayo, G. N.
It is no longer news that there is conflict of different colours and shades across the globe vis-a-vis several approaches to resolving it. The reality is that global conflict remains unabated hence the need for a new approach to handling it. Extant scholarly works on global conflicts and procedures for resolving it has not factored into it the place of ethical education. This is the gap this paper intends to fill in the entire discourse as it argues for the essentiality of ethical education as needed toolkits and lubrication oil for engineering functional global conflict resolution. Leaning on consequential ethical theories, this paper brings to the fore the meaning of ethical education, in features, methods of application, challenges and the expected results while factoring it to global conflict resolution processes

The paper posits that many scholars interrogated several challenges facing Nigerian Entrepreneurs from 'outside perspectives' ranging from economics, socio-economic, cultural, to psychology with insignificant attention paid to ‘inside perspectives’ that are practically inherent in the personalities and profdes of Nigerian Entrepreneurs. The inside perspectives', which this paper describes as enemies within’ are spiritualisation of business, godly financial spending, substituting business time for religious programme, problem of trust, bad character and unhealthy competition among entrepreneurs. They were discussed thoroughly and methods of conquering them were suggested as moral therapy for healing Nigerian entrepreneurship.
