  • MOBILE INTERNET and the RISE of DIGITAL ACTIVISM AMONG UNIVERSITY STUDENTS in NIGERIA Thesis Submitted for the Degree of Doct
    MOBILE INTERNET AND THE RISE OF DIGITAL ACTIVISM AMONG UNIVERSITY STUDENTS IN NIGERIA Thesis Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Canberra by Temple Uwalaka News and Media Research Centre Faculty of Arts and Design October, 2017 ABSTRACT ___________________________________________________________________________ Digital activism literature has proposed several ways in which social media impacts collective actions. These include providing news and information not available on traditional platforms, assisting in the coordination of protests, helping users to join political causes, creating opportunities for protestors to interact with one another, spreading enthusiasm and facilitating emotional contagion (Bennett & Segerberg, 2011, 2014; Chadwick & Howard, 2010; de- Zúñiga, Jung, & Valenzuela, 2012; Gerbaudo, 2012, 2016; Halupka, 2014, 2016; Reedy & Wells, 2010). However many of these previous works (a) do not focus upon mobile social networking applications, and (b) are located within either legacy democracies or authoritarian regimes. In order to bridge this research gap, this study focuses upon the use of mobile social networking applications to support digital activism within the nascent democracy of Nigeria, a country that has only recently returned from military dictatorship. Specifically, this study investigates the impact of mobile internet on the rise of digital activism among Nigerian university students from two universities in Nigeria during the 2012 Occupy Nigeria protest against the removal of petroleum subsidies by the Federal Government of Nigeria. The movement lasted for one month and took place in all the major cities in Nigeria. A mixed-methods approach was adopted featuring two principal methods: (a) a cross- sectional quantitative survey of media platforms used by protestors (n=440); and (b) semi- structured qualitative interviews on protestors’ experiences before, during and after Occupy Nigeria (n=19).

  • THE ROLE of JUDGES in the ELECTION PROCESS Abstract
    MUNFOLLJ (3) 2021 THE ROLE OF JUDGES IN THE ELECTION PROCESS Abstract Election has been universally acclaimed as a process of choosing representatives by popular vote by the people in a democratic society. It is one of the attributes of democracy. Election in Nigeria is conducted by an independent Electoral body, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) which is expected to carry out its statutory duties in compliance with the constitution and other enactments and, at the end of the Election process declare a winner in the Election. All contestants in the Election have the constitutional right to ventilate their grievance against the conduct of the Election in the Court or Election Tribunal and the judgment of the Court or Tribunal is binding on all the parties, including INEC. This Paper examines on the Role of Judges in the Election process and the numerous factors which obstruct the Judges in the discharge of their roles in Election matters. It is the findings that the Judges are not adequately discharging their roles in Election matters hence there is no justice and fairness with the resultant lack of confidence by the citizenry on the Courts / Election Tribunals handling Election matters. In conclusion the work recommends that Keywords: Democracy, Election Petition, INEC, Judge 1.0. INTRODUCTION Democracy which has been affirmed as the best form of government in the world, no doubt is a government made up of the generality or representatives of the people. It allows the people to participate in the government by choosing their leaders. Such leaders are chosen in regular and periodic Elections which is one of its attributes.

    OPERATION AURE Page 1 of 67 OPERATION 'AURE’: The Northern Military Counter-Rebellion of July 1966 By Nowa Omoigui BACKGROUND In the early hours of January 15, 1966, citing a laundry list of complaints against the political class, there was a military rebellion in Nigeria against the first republic [http://www.dawodu.com/nzeogwu2.htm]. Led by a group of Majors who were predominantly of eastern origin, the Prime Minister, a federal minister, two regional premiers, along with top Army officers were brutally assassinated. A number of civilians were also killed. [http://www.gamji.com/NEWS1103.htm] The coup succeeded in Kaduna the northern region capital, failed in Lagos the federal capital and Ibadan the western regional capital, but barely took place in Benin the midwestern capital, and Enugu the eastern capital. The majority of those murdered were northerners, accompanied by some westerners and two Midwesterners. No easterner lost his or her life. On January 16, rather than approve the appointment of Zanna Bukar Dipcharima, a politician of northern origin, as acting Prime Minister, the acting President, Nwafor Orizu, himself of eastern origin, handed over power to Major-General JTU Aguiyi- Ironsi, the GOC of the Nigerian Army, also of eastern origin. This was allegedly at the behest of the rump cabinet, allegedly to enable Ironsi put down the revolt which, as of then, had already failed in southern Nigeria. Until it became apparent recently in separate testimony by Alhaji Shehu Shagari and Chief Richard Akinjide, it had always been publicly assumed in the lay Press that the hand-over was voluntary although unconstitutional - since no such provision existed in the Nigerian constitution.

  • A Critique of Boko Haram Ogbonnaya, Dorcas C
    International Academy Journal of Business Administration Annals International Academy Journal of Business Administration Annals Volume 7, Issue 1, PP 42-53, ISSN: 2382-9175, April, 2019 Double Blind Peer Reviewed International Research Journal http://arcnjournals.org [email protected] ©Academic Science Archives (ASA) Insurgency and Public Service Delivery in Nigeria: A Critique of Boko Haram Ogbonnaya, Dorcas C. Department of Public Administration, Faculty of Management and Social Sciences, Godfrey Okoye University, Ugwuomu, Enugu | E-mail: [email protected] | Phone: 07032146631 Abstract: The study examined the impact of insurgency on public service delivery in Nigeria with a focus on Boko Haram. The data is secondary in nature, sourced through secondary materials by way of content analysis. The findings revealed that extreme religious belief, unemployment, illiteracy, bad governance, and corruption have greatly contributed to the occurrence of insurgency in Nigeria especially in the North East where Boko Haram insurgency mostly operates. The paper concluded that poverty and misrepresentation of religious doctrines are the key propelling factors to insurgency in Northern Nigeria. The study therefore recommended among others that the government should formulate and implement policies which will create employment opportunities for the unemployed and desperate youths of the country.
