Description

This scholarly work examines the profound impact of deindustrialisation on deceased workers and their families in Nigeria's textile sector, focusing on the collapse of the Kaduna Textile Limited (KTL) mill. The author investigates how the dead continue to influence the lives of Christian and Muslim families who once laboured in the mill, exploring the complex ways deceased workers maintain connections to living relatives across Nigeria and assert claims to ancestral property and land in Kaduna. Through ethnographic analysis, the book reveals how families navigate termination remittances, inheritance disputes, and spiritual relationships with the deceased whilst managing economic hardship. This contribution to African studies combines anthropological perspective with sociological inquiry to understand mortality, labour history, and social cohesion in post-industrial Nigeria, offering insights into how communities process loss and sustain kinship networks across generations.
