Book Description
Nigeria predicted in the Bible is an inspirational book that unlocks the prophecies concerning Nigeria and some other nations, and institution. The emphasis dwells more on Nigeria and her citizen's biological ancestries. Historians recorded the ancient Ethiopia cover extensive part of West Africa and that excludes Proper Guinea. The prophecy says beyond the rivers of Ethiopia there is a nation whose land the rivers divide; this prophecy pointed to Proper Guinea which is beyond ancient Ethiopia territory where we found Nigeria, a nation with two great rivers from different location forming a confluence and creating the greatest delta in Africa. This is the Y symbol in Nigeria coat of arms which explains the emphasis of a nation whose land the rivers divide. Through the prophecies and historical records, we are been informed that Nigerians ancestors were true biblical Israelite s fugitives; that settled in present day Nigeria. Zephaniah 3 v 10; From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia my suppliants, even the daughter of my dispersed, shall bring mine offering. Isaiah 18 v 7b; a nation whose land the rivers or great channels divide-to the place [of worship] of the Name of the Lord of hosts, to Mount Zion [in Jerusalem]. Amplified Bible Version. Connecting a nation in west Africa to mount Zion and declaring them as daughters of my dispersed is a food for thought. 7 FACTS YOU MUST KNOW ABOUT NIGERIA1) A predicted nation that will be the gospel torchbearer before the end will come.

The Cross and the River
Author: Ḥagai Erlikh
Publisher: Lynne Rienner Publishers
ISBN: 9781555879709
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
The ongoing Egyptian-Ethiopian dispute over the Nile waters is potentially one of the most difficult issues on the current international agenda, central to the very life of the two countries. Analyzing the context of the dispute across a span of more than a thousand years, The Cross and the River delves into the heart of both countries' identities and cultures. Erlich deftly weaves together three themes: the political relationship between successive Ethiopian and Egyptian regimes; the complex connection between the Christian churches in the two countries; and the influence of the Nile river system on Ethiopian and Egyptian definitions of national identity and mutual perceptions of the Other. Drawing on a vast range of sources, his study is key to an understanding of a bond built on both interdependence and conflict.

Warriors of Ethiopia
Author: Richard McLellan

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
This book recounts the stories of just some of the hundreds of peasant farmers from Southern Ethiopia who God called to take the Gospel message into previously inaccessible regions, to people so fierce they would not hesitate to kill an outsider. It is a brief record of some of their culture, the security of their families and who, with Bible and water bottle in hand and confidence in their saviour, took the message of Jesus Christ over the mountain ranges and beyond the rivers to those who had never heard of Him. Today, through the sacrifices and sufferings of men like these, there are thousands of churches throughout the mountains of Southern Ethiopia. These stories will shock encourage, challenge and provoke you to follow their example as gospel warriors.

River Basin Development and Human Rights in Eastern Africa — A Policy Crossroads
Author: Claudia J. Carr
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 331950469X
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
This book is open access under a CC BY-NC 2.5 license. This book offers a devastating look at deeply flawed development processes driven by international finance, African governments and the global consulting industry. It examines major river basin development underway in the semi-arid borderlands of Ethiopia, Kenya and South Sudan and its disastrous human rights consequences for a half-million indigenous people. The volume traces the historical origins of Gibe III megadam construction along the Omo River in Ethiopia—in turn, enabling irrigation for commercial-scale agricultural development and causing radical reduction of downstream Omo and (Kenya's) Lake Turkana waters. Presenting case studies of indigenous Dasanech and northernmost Turkana livelihood systems and Gibe III linked impacts on them, the author predicts agropastoral and fishing economic collapse, region-wide hunger with exposure to disease epidemics, irreversible natural resource destruction and cross-border interethnic armed conflict spilling into South Sudan. The book identifies fundamental failings of government and development bank impact assessments, including their distortion or omission of mandated transboundary assessment, cumulative effects of the Gibe III dam and its linked Ethiopia-Kenya energy transmission 'highway' project, key hydrologic and human ecological characteristics, major earthquake threat in the dam region and widespread expropriation and political repression. Violations of internationally recognized human rights, especially by the Ethiopian government but also the Kenyan government, are extensive and on the increase—with collaboration by the development banks, in breach of their own internal operational procedures. A policy crossroads has now emerged. The author presents the alternative to the present looming catastrophe—consideration of development suspension in order to undertake genuinely independent transboundary assessment and a plan for continued development action within a human rights framework—forging a sustainable future for the indigenous peoples now directly threatened and for their respective eastern Africa states. Claudia Carr’s book is a treasure of detailed information gathered over many years concerning river basin development of the Omo River in Ethiopia and its impact on the peoples of the lower Omo Basin and the Lake Turkana region in Kenya. It contains numerous maps, charts, and photographs not previously available to the public. The book is highly critical of the environmental and human rights implications of the Omo River hydropower projects on both the local ethnic communities in Ethiopia and on the downstream Turkana in Kenya.

A World of Rivers
Author: Ellen Wohl
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226904806
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 368
Book Description
Far from being the serene, natural streams of yore, modern rivers have been diverted, dammed, dumped in, and dried up, all in efforts to harness their power for human needs. But these rivers have also undergone environmental change. The old adage says you can’t step in the same river twice, and Ellen Wohl would agree—natural and synthetic change are so rapid on the world’s great waterways that rivers are transforming and disappearing right before our eyes. A World of Rivers explores the confluence of human and environmental change on ten of the great rivers of the world. Ranging from the Murray-Darling in Australia and the Yellow River in China to Central Europe’s Danube and the United States’ Mississippi, the book journeys down the most important rivers in all corners of the globe. Wohl shows us how pollution, such as in the Ganges and in the Ob of Siberia, has affected biodiversity in the water. But rivers are also resilient, and Wohl stresses the importance of conservation and restoration to help reverse the effects of human carelessness and hubris. What all these diverse rivers share is a critical role in shaping surrounding landscapes and biological communities, and Wohl’s book ultimately makes a strong case for the need to steward positive change in the world’s great rivers.
