“…Overall, the Governor's team seriously feared losing the 2015 election and had to re-evaluate the distributive effects of their policies (Adekanmbi 2015). Ajimobi's spokesman explained how the perception of taxation being heavy, for example, was a threat to their re-election: ‘We had to swim out of it by telling people that “look you cannot have development unless …” But at the same time, we are being very careful in terms of imposing taxation on the people’ (Special adviser to the Governor 2015 Int).…”

This article argues against the long-standing instinct to read African politics in terms of programmatic versus patrimonial politics. Unlike the assumptions of much of the current quantitative literature, there are substantive political struggles that go beyond ‘public goods good, private goods bad’. Scholarly framings serve to obscure the essentially contested nature of what counts as legitimate distribution. This article uses the recent political history of the Lagos Model in south-west Nigeria to show that the idea of patrimonial versus programmatic politics does not stand outside of politics but is in itself a politically constructed distinction. In adopting it a priori as scholars we commit ourselves to seeing the world through the eyes of a specific, often elite, constituency that makes up only part of the rich landscape of normative political contestation in Nigeria. Finally, the example of a large-scale empowerment scheme in Oyo State shows the complexity of politicians’ attempts to render distribution legitimate to different audiences at once.

“…[ 3 ] Enuresis occurs world-wide and is commoner in boys.

It is often a neglected problem with the child bearing much of the emotional and psychological trauma, which certainly could have negative impact in achieving his/her full potentials.…”

Enuresis is a distressing psycho-social disorder. It is often a neglected disorder, and its effect on the psychosocial development of a child is often overlooked, especially in those of low socio-economic status. Its exact pathophysiology is not completely understood, but it has been related to the effect of dopamine in the basal ganglia. However, its association with pediatric autoimmune neuropsychiatric disorder associated with streptococci infection is well-established. But, the case of an 11-year-old Nigerian girl diagnosed with Sydenham's chorea and had secondary enuresis is reported.
