A qualitative methodology and an exploratory case study (Yin, 2003) enable an in-depth understanding of the term effectiveness as it affects polytechnic education in Nigeria. A comparative theoretical framework is applied, examining three polytechnic institutions representing Federal, State and Private structures under a variety of conditions. Data was based on triangulation comprising fifty-two (52) semi-structured interviews, one focus group, and documentary evidence. The participants in the study were the dominant coalition in the institutions comprising top- academic leaders, lecturers, non-academic staff, and students.

  • Lagos State Poctket Factfinder

    Lagos State Poctket Factfinder

    HISTORY Before the creation of the States in 1967, the identity of Lagos was restricted to the Lagos Island of Eko (Bini word for war camp). The first settlers in Eko were the Aworis, who were mostly hunters and fishermen. They had migrated from Ile-Ife by stages to the coast at Ebute- Metta. The Aworis were later reinforced by a band of Benin warriors and joined by other Yoruba elements who settled on the mainland for a while till the danger of an attack by the warring tribes plaguing Yorubaland drove them to seek the security of the nearest island, Iddo, from where they spread to Eko. By 1851 after the abolition of the slave trade, there was a great attraction to Lagos by the repatriates. First were the Saro, mainly freed Yoruba captives and their descendants who, having been set ashore in Sierra Leone, responded to the pull of their homeland, and returned in successive waves to Lagos. Having had the privilege of Western education and christianity, they made remarkable contributions to education and the rapid modernisation of Lagos. They were granted land to settle in the Olowogbowo and Breadfruit areas of the island. The Brazilian returnees, the Aguda, also started arriving in Lagos in the mid-19th century and brought with them the skills they had acquired in Brazil. Most of them were master-builders, carpenters and masons, and gave the distinct charaterisitics of Brazilian architecture to their residential buildings at Bamgbose and Campos Square areas which form a large proportion of architectural richness of the city.

    Nigeria and the Politics of Unreason Page 1 of 27 Nigeria and the Politics of Unreason: Political Assassinations, Decampments, Moneybags, and Public Protests By Victor E. Dike Introduction The problems facing Nigeria emanate from many fronts, which include irrational behavior (actions) of the political elite, politics of division, and politics devoid of political ideology. Others factors are corruption and poverty, lack of distributive justice, regional, and religious cleavages. All these combine to create crises (riots and conflicts) in the polity, culminating in public desperation and insecurity, politics of assassinations, decampments (carpet crossing), moneybags, and public protests. All this reached its climax during the 2003 elections. When the nation thinks it is shifting away from these forces, they would somersault and clash again creating another political thunderstorm. It looks that the society would hardly outgrow ‘the politics of unreason’ (Lipset and Raab, 1970), which is often politics of extremism, because the political class is always going beyond the limits of what are reasonable to secure or retain political power. During the 2003 elections moneybags (instead of political ideology) directed political actions in political parties; and it also influenced the activities of many politicians. As a result, the presidential candidates of the two major political parties (PDP and ANPP) cliched their party tickets by stuffing the car boots, so to say, of their party delegates with Ghana-Must- Go bags. This frustrated and intimidated their political opponents within (and those in the other minor political parties). Since after his defeat by Chief Olusegun Obasanjo in the 2003 PDP primary in Abuja, Dr.

A descriptive research design was used for this study and the instrument used for data collection was the questionnaire. The population of this study comprised two hundred and fifty two respondents from selected academic institutions and a stratified sampling technique was used to select respondents from each of the nine institutions investigated. This study assessed the use of Open Educational Resources by students in nine academic institutions in Nigeria which comprised (Federal, State and Private Universities; Polytechnics; and Colleges of Education) in Nigeria. Findings illustrates that 40.5% of students do not use OER because they are not aware of OER. Male students use more OER than females.

    The Status and Challenges of Mass Communication Education in Nigeria

    International Journal of Research in Arts and Social Sciences Vol 5 The Status And Challenges Of Mass Communication Education In Nigeria Nnanyelugo Okoro Paul Martin Obayi Alexander Chima Onyebuchi Abstract This study examines journalism training and mass communication education in Nigeria with the aim of pointing out the challenges that need to be addressed in order to improve on the quality of communication training and practice in the country. It argued that ever since the University of Nigeria, Nsukka pioneered journalism in 1961 at the Bachelor of Arts (B.A) degree level, journalism and mass communication education in Nigeria have witness tremendous recognition in terms of the number of institutions and institutes that now run mass communication and journalism training programmes in the country. The study noted, however, that the state of journalism education in Nigeria is in dilemma as a result of certain problems that have besieged both the profession and its training institutions. The study concluded that there is need for the revitalisation of journalism training and mass communication education at all levels in the country in order to raise the profession to world standard. Key words: Journalism training and mass communication education Introduction Over the years, scholars have argued that journalism and mass communication education in Nigeria needs serious attention in order to meet up with the developments in journalism practice all over the world. Harping on this issue, Akinfeleye (2009) noted that “it has now become a truism that a low degree of literacy rate contributes to a low degree of Journalism Education and training, while on the other hand, a high level of literacy tends to contribute to a higher degree of journalistic training and professional standards”.
