	The Human Race Foundation
		The rules and regulations, which we referred to as our “norms” became the guiding principles of our lives and it was not long before the way of life we nurtured and propagated became enshrined in a culture that was to grow from strength to strength.
		The initial years were turbulent, as is to be expected with any new organisation, but not even the foundation members were quite aware of the momentum that they had set rolling and the legacy that they had just built.
		The administrative structure was rapidly established with a leadership structure rotating between the Nsukka and Enugu branches.

	Chapter 24. Female Farmers' Access to Technological Inputs in Nsukka: International Development Research Centre
		Ikhare found that farmers in Nsukka use mainly goat manure as the main source of soil fertility, which seems to imply that the technological inputs, such as artificial fertilizers, were inaccessible to them.
		For each of the technological inputs on the checklist, there were three areas of response: (1) extent of accessibility (rated on a four-point scale); (2) sources (purchased directly from the market, subsidized through government agents, free from government agents, or obtained from male farmers); and (3) relevance (rated on a four-point scale).
		This meant that there was an actual difference in the extent to which the agrotechnological inputs were relevant to the rural and urban female farmers; specifically, the inputs were significantly more relevant to the rural female farmers than to their urban counterparts.

	Fatwa on bishop - OnlineNigeria.com
		Blog It The Catholic Church in Nsukka and the Nru community, also in Nsukka, Enugu State, are spoiling for a show down in what appears to be a clash between church and local tradition.
		Rev Francis Okobo, the Catholic Bishop of Nsukka Diocese, was administering the sacrament of confirmation on a group of children and some adults.
		Reacting to these allegations, the Cathedral Administrator of St. Theresaâs Cathedral, Nsukka, Rev. Father Anselm Asogwa, said that he was not in a position to react to all the allegations, as he was not with the parish when the matter started.

	Focus on the menace of student cults (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		The Nsukka massacre was the worst manifestation so far of a cancer that had been spreading in Nigeria’s tertiary educational institutions for three decades: the menace of student cults, who visit violence on their rivals in a manner comparable to US street gangs.
		Before the Nsukka incident, the president of the Lagos State University's student union, who had been waging an anti-cults campaign, was stabbed to death by suspected cultists.
		Barely two weeks after the killings at Nsukka, two students of the University of Ado-Ekiti, in the southwest, were shot dead in their residence by suspected cult members.

		It fully developed among teachers and students in the 1970s at the University in Nsukka and was linked to renewed interest in Igbo culture after the destructive Biafran War.
		At Nsukka, through Okeke and his own uli researches, (4) Udechukwu learned of the rich aesthetics of uli and its symbolism, the importance of drawing, the skillful use of the two-dimensional surface.
		It was logical that Udechukwu should have taught at Nsukka, first as a graduate student and later as regular staff, from 1973 to 1997.

		Before 1960, Nsukka was a parochial mass of grass-covered hills dotted with huts and small farms.
		But this is not just any city: this is Nsukka, the city that witnessed my early crushes, on whose soil I had my earliest scrapes, whose trees I climbed and fell off to get scars that still linger on my arms.

	Police barbarity in Nsukka - OnlineNigeria.com
		It is disheartening to observe the high handedness of the Police in Nsukka.
		The worst story is that the youths who are the cream of every society, the agents of change and the leaders of tomorrow, (even though in Nigeria, tomorrow never comes) are the worst hit.
		I-G sir, undergraduates who hail from Nsukka need your urgent and serious attention to put to an end the awful actions of the Police (mobile and general) in Nsukka.

		The volume of research, publications and exhibits this initiative spawned is transgenerational and remains a testimony to Okeke's prowess as philosopher- artist.
		That Okeke carried the Uli experiment beyond the walls of Zaria and led its transformation into a modern idiom at Nsukka remains a feat of inspired originality.
		That his 'natural synthesis' philosophy blossomed to become fount and factor in the development of modern art in Nigeria represents a logical and sustained triumph of both vision and imagination.

	An Anniversary Lecture Titled "The University, the Fallen House of Nigeria, and the Nehemian Complex" By Patrick Utomi
		But it is also a trip that unveils my anxieties about the waning of hope that dwelt abundantly in the hills of Nsukka and the hearts of young men and women who sought knowledge here when I graduated about a quarter of a century ago.
		It was the broadening of my horizon by the course system and then GS that led me pursuing formal academic study in several disciplines after I originally arrived Nsukka to pursue a course of study in Journalism.
		As some of you may recall I recently terminated persistent criticism of my position on an issue as economistic, the point being that I tend not to appreciate the import of politics, by reminding the critic, a political science scholar, that I wrote a doctoral thesis and was awarded a Ph.d in political science.

		It was then she asked me to go to the Italian embassy and she told me that they had scholarship programmes.
		In any case, I was a government scholar at Nsukka, so it was no problem to say we should go abroad.

	RESPONSES TO DYMPNA UGWU-OJU
		In her book, Ugwu-Oju presents Igboland (in this case Nsukka) as a place “of female circumcision, child brides and patriarchal domination.
		During a Ford Foundation sponsored pre-dissertation fieldwork trip to Nsukka in 1996, I had the honor of interviewing Dympna’s mother, Madam Rose Edoga (the interview took place on November 8).
		However when it appears that she has taken advantage of her mother’s illiteracy to represent her in disapproving ways—ways in which her mother does not represent herself—there becomes a problem.
