Sesame Square is a Nigerian version of "Sesame Street".
 It is West Africa's first "Sesame Street" adaptation.
 Nigerians produce and voice the series in Standard English.
 The show is scheduled to have three seasons, with the first containing 26 episodes, one for each letter of the English alphabet.
 It is due to be screened on Nigerian Television Authority network.
 The set of "Sesame Square" resembles a traditional Nigerian village with a central mango tree.
 The series stars Kami, an HIV-positive Muppet (who was originally part of the South African version of Sesame Street), and Zobi, a blue, furry Muppet who is a 'Yam Monster' (the Nigerian version of the Cookie Monster in the American original).
 He often shouts out, "me eat yam!"
 It will also feature segments from the American original including famous characters such as Big Bird and Bert and Ernie.
 The characters will be revoiced, however, to give them Nigerian accents.
 The opening theme tune is "Welcome to Sesame Square" and includes the use of talking drums.
 These are the segments were dubbed in Global Grover, Play with Me Sesame, Elmo's World, Bert and Ernie's Great Adventures, and Sesame Street English.
 In addition to teaching letters and numbers, the show aims to educate children about malaria prevention, promote Nigerian unity through the representation of the diverse groups that make-up the country and to help remove the stigma of being HIV-positive.
 It is the second foreign co-production of Sesame Street to be shown entirely in English, the first being Northern Ireland's "Sesame Tree".
The University of the Philippines (UP; Filipino: "Unibersidad ng Pilipinas" or "Pamantasan ng Pilipinas") is a state university system in the Philippines.
 Founded by the American colonial government on June 18, 1908, it was originally a university conceived for the Filipinos.
 Act 1870 of the 1st Philippine Legislature was signed to establish UP to provide "advanced instruction in literature, philosophy, the sciences and arts, and to give professional and technical training" to eligible students regardless of "age, sex, nationality, religious belief and political affiliation".
 UP has institutional autonomy as the country's national university as mandated by Republic Act No. 9500 (UP Charter of 2008).
Settler colonialism is a form of colonialism in which the imperial power oversees the immigration of settlers who consent to imperial authority, often driven by the desire to eliminate any indigenous presence in the territory, by a variety of means, ranging from violent depopulation of the previous inhabitants, to more subtle, legal means such as assimilation or recognition of indigenous identity within a colonial framework.
 Through this elimination, the settlers take over the land left vacant by the previous residents.
 Unlike other forms of colonialism, the imperial power does not always represent the same nationality as the settlers.
 However, the colonizing authority generally views the settlers as racially superior to the previous inhabitants, which may give settlers' social movements and political demands greater legitimacy than those of colonized peoples in the eyes of the home government.
