  • Mobilising Pan African News Agency Participation in Global News Flow
    www.ijird.com January, 2014 Vol 3 Issue 1 ISSN 2278 – 0211 (Online) Mobilising Pan African News Agency Participation in Global News Flow Suleiman Hassan Biodun Department of Journalism Lagos State University School of Communication, Surulere, Lagos State, Nigeria William Adesoji Johnson Department of Media and Communication Studies Afe Babalola University, Ado Ekiti, Ekiti State, Nigeria Babatunde Kamaldeen College of Communication and Information Technology Department of Mass Communication, Kwara State University, Nigeria Abstract: This is essentially an exploratory essay on the desirability of mobilizing Pan African News Agency participation in the present Global news flow. This paper explores the historical development of global news agencies, with emphasis on the Pan African News Agency. Attempts were made to examine the historical antecedents of the North-South Information dichotomy in post cold war era which was the off-shoot of the New World Information and Communication debate. In like manner, efforts made by various countries (especially countries in the Northern hemisphere) to correct the Global news imbalance were also analyzed. The paper concluded by proffering different strategies through which PANA could participate adequately in the global news flow. The strategies include but not limited to yearly payment of subscription by member countries for the effective funding of the agency; collective finance of African satellite by member countries; investment in science and technology; adequate funding of engineering and technical colleges in African countries; establishments and funding of science-oriented tertiary institutions in African countries; and allocation of 26% budget for educational sector in African countries. Key words: Mobilising, News Agency, Global, News Flow, Participation 1.

    79I /f NIGERIAN MILITARY GOVERNMENT AND PRESS FREEDOM, 1966-79 THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS By Ehikioya Agboaye, B.A. Denton, Texas May, 1984 Agboaye, Ehikioya, Nigerian Military Government and Press Freedom, 1966-79. Master of Arts (Journalism), May, 1984, 3 tables, 111 pp., bibliography, 148 titles. The problem of this thesis is to examine the military- press relationship inNigeria from 1966 to 1979 and to determine whether activities of the military government contributed to violation of press freedom by prior restraint, postpublication censorship and penalization. Newspaper and magazine articles related to this study were analyzed. Interviews with some journalists and mili- tary personnel were also conducted. Materials collected show that the military violated some aspects of press freedom, but in most cases, however, journalists were free to criticize government activities. The judiciary prevented the military from arbitrarily using its power against the press. The findings show that although the military occasionally attempted suppressing the press, there are few instances that prove that journalists were denied press freedom.

  • Impact of the News Agency of Nigeria and Foreign News Agencies on the News and Information Flow of the Nigerian Press
    Impact of the News Agency of Nigeria and Foreign News Agencies on the News and Information Flow of the Nigerian Press By GODWIN EHIAREKHIAN OBOH Abstract The federal government, on May 10, 1976, set up the News Agency of Nigeria to redress the lopsided nature of the global news flow in the interest of Nigeria, promote national unity and lend support to government programmes and activities. The agency was, however, expected to achieve these objectives by complementing the role of the Nigerian media. This study examined all the issues published in the month of May 2004 by The Guardian, Punch, This Day and Vanguard to determine the number of news stories NAN supplied to these papers. The findings revealed that of the 271 news agencies' stories used by the papers, NAN only supplied 20. An evaluation of these findings with chi-square disclosed that NAN had no significant impact on the Nigerian press. Introduction diplomats and publishing houses".

  • Universal Health Coverage Day 2018 UNITE for UNIVERSAL HEALTH COVERAGE: NOW IS the TIME for COLLECTIVE ACTION
    INTERNATIONAL Universal Health Coverage Day 2018 UNITE FOR UNIVERSAL HEALTH COVERAGE: NOW IS THE TIME FOR COLLECTIVE ACTION MEDIA COVERAGE REPORT As of 18 December 2018 TABLE OF CONTENTS Overview Global Partner Events Digital/Social Media Traditional Media New Reports Global Media Coverage OVERVIEW Led by UHC2030 and the multi-stakeholder UHC Day Coordinating Group, the fifth UHC Day exceeded the breadth and depth of engagement seen in years past. As the first UHC Day officially recognized by the United Nations as an international awareness day, the focus of this year’s 12.12 extended far beyond civil society engagement. This year’s momentum exceeded past measures of success, with more partner events, more country-level engagement and more creative content on social media. The coverage of UHC Day 2018 highlights its importance to diverse issue areas within global health and across countries and sectors. Action and conversation from this day is already propelling conversations about universal health coverage into related issue areas and generating momentum in the lead up to major milestones, including the UN General Assembly High-Level Meeting on UHC in September 2019. GLOBAL PARTNER EVENTS Thanks in no small part to generous contributions from UHC2030 in the form of $90,000 in micro-grants for partner events, organizations across the globe were able to engage with UHC Day unprecedented ways. The resulting global partner events became an undeniable highlight of the day, as the UHC Day Coordinating Group (12.12.CG) received ​435 grant applications​ by the end of October 2018. Of these, 12.12.CG selected ​57 grantees​ ​from 34 countries​, as well as 2 global youth network events, 1 regional youth network event and 3 online events, for the 2018 grants.

  • BBC Pidgin in West-Afrika
    Wetin dey happen: BBC Pidgin in West-Afrika Anne Beltman 4185803 Bachelor Eindwerkstuk BA Taalwetenschap Universiteit Utrecht 1e begeleider: dr. M. van den Berg 2de begeleider: dr. J. Zwarts Aantal woorden: 17.250 Datum: 29/12/2017 1 Samenvatting Sinds augustus 2017 zendt de BBC uit in Pidgin in West-Afrika. Dit is een opzienbarende beslissing, gezien de status van Pidgin in de regio. In dit onderzoek werd onderzocht hoe deze beslissing past binnen het taalbeleid van de BBC. Eerst is door middel van een literatuuronderzoek onderzocht wat het taalbeleid van de BBC is ten opzichte van het Engels en ten opzichte van andere talen. Verwacht werd dat het taalbeleid zeer prescriptief zou zijn, maar dit bleek niet te kloppen: het vooroorlogse beleid was inderdaad prescriptief, maar dit veranderde na de Tweede Wereldoorlog in een soepeler, non-prescriptief beleid. Vervolgens is door middel van een corpusonderzoek onderzocht welk Pidgin de BBC gebruikt: Nigeriaans Pidgin, Ghanees Pidgin, Kameroen Pidgin of een combinatie van deze talen. Uit een analyse van TMA-markeerders in negen artikelen van de BBC nieuwssite bleek dat de BBC een combinatie van de drie genoemde Pidgins gebruikt. Uit dit onderzoek kan geconcludeerd worden dat de beslissing om in Pidgin uit te zenden goed past binnen het taalbeleid van de BBC. 2 Inhoud 1.
