Abstract

The importance of the enactment of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act (ACJA) 2015 for the Nigerian Federation and the subsequent state variants have an impact on the need for speedy dispensation of justice. This enactment enjoins all institutional actors that make up the criminal justice system in Nigeria to accelerate the processes leading to the quick dispensation of justice for the defendant, the victim and the society. The Nigeria policing philosophy characterised by centralised command and control governance system appears to be at variance with this aim as provided by the Act. It is particularly so in component states where variants of the ACJA have not been enacted. Quick dispensation of justice may be painful to achieve when the police cannot be controlled by any other body in the Federation other than the central command. This paper provides that if there is no realignment or a total recalibration of the philosophies between the ACJA and the Nigeria Police, the aims of ACJA may become far from reality. The combination of jurisdictional limitation of crime and the peculiar federating structure of the country which imposes a pseudo-independent criminal justice system on each state has a crucial impact on the aims of ACJA.

Abstract

Water is a vital resource essential for the survival of humans, animals, and ecosystems. Its inclusion in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) underscores its importance. Effective management and regulation of water resources are critical for achieving development across key sectors. However, freshwater scarcity is an increasing concern, particularly with the high water consumption involved in bitumen mining and production. This study employs a hybrid research method to assess water resource regulation in Nigeria and Uganda. A total of 226 questionnaires were distributed to respondents in Nigeria, and the data was analyzed using descriptive and analytical techniques. The findings reveal a lack of a robust legal framework regulating water usage in bitumen mining in Nigeria, in contrast to Uganda, where more comprehensive water regulations exist. The study further concludes that unregulated water withdrawals for bitumen production in Nigeria threaten the achievement of SDG 6.4, which focuses on sustainable water use. To prevent ecological disasters and ensure the sustainability of freshwater ecosystems in Nigeria's bitumen belt, the study recommends strengthening existing legal and institutional frameworks to guarantee instream flow and sustainable water use in mining activities, drawing from the experiences of countries like Uganda.Keywords: Bitumen, Freshwater, Instream Flow, Mining, Sustainable Development Goals, Water Management

Abstract

The Uganda government has taken legal and institutional measures (such as the Uganda constitution, National Environmental Act and the Climate Change Act) to ensure clean and healthy environment and resolving major environmental issues. However, the rate of street trading within the terrain of Uganda, has resulted in the illegal dumping of refuse. It suffices to state that illegal dumping of refuse could generate major environmental issues such as flood, soil pollution, water pollution, air pollution, and destruction of habitat. This study embarks on a hybrid method of study in examining the need to combat the threat of street trading associated with the illegal dumping of waste. 290 questionnaires were sent to respondents residing in the various regions of Uganda. The data obtained through the questionnaire was analyzed using a descriptive and analytical method of research. The study therefore found that, there are unchecked incidents of street trading which often result in illegal dumping of refuse. Furthermore, the continuous dumping of refuse as a result of street trading could result in severe environmental pollution. The study therefore concludes and recommends that for a sustainable environment free from any form of pollution, there is a need for the Uganda government to through institutional measures reinforce the laws against illegal dumping of refuse resulting from street trading.
