Subject: Navigating the Fecund Fields of Linguistics, Literature, Literacy and Communication Arts: A Festschrift in Honour of Professor Obiajulu A. Emejulu


The National Institute for Nigerian Languages, Aba, Nigeria is
delighted to announce a call for papers for a festschrift in honour of
Professor Obiajulu Augustine Emejulu, a distinguished scholar in the
field of linguistics and communication studies, with particular
leaning towards sociolinguistics, literacy development, and digital
humanities. He is a Professor of Communication and Language Arts, and
is currently ending a highly impactful and transformative tenure as
the 4th substantive Executive Director of the National Institute for
Nigerian Languages (NINLAN), Aba.
Papers are invited on topics related to linguistics, literature,
literacy, and communication studies. Manuscripts can be written in
English, Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba, or other Nigerian languages and should
normally have 4,000 - 6,000 words. For papers written in English, a
two-paragraph summary of one hundred words in a Nigerian language of
choice should be included before the main paper, while a similar
summary in English should be provided for articles in Nigerian
languages. The use of tables and figures is encouraged, and they
should be placed within the text, not at the end.

However, author(s) will be asked to pay a publication fee of #25,000
