The study adopted the descriptive survey design and sample sizes of 300 adults were drawn from fifteen (15) affected communities in Bayelsa State. The instrument used for data collection was a disaster management questionnaire and the data were analyzed using chi-square. The finding of the study revealed that there is a significant relationship between poor integrated policy and action plan as well as weak institutional capacity and collaboration of disaster management agencies and effectiveness of disaster management in Bayelsa State.

Abstract

This study examines the problem of legislative oversight in Nigeria using Delta State as a case study. Four research questions were raised to guide the study and four null hypotheses were formulated for the study. The design of the study was a descriptive survey. The population of the study comprised 600 staff in the Delta State House of Assembly. The sample of the study consisted of 245 staff drawn from nine (9) departments using stratified and simple random techniques. The instrument used for data collection was the legislative oversight questionnaire and the collated data were analyzed using mean rating and chi-square. The findings of the study revealed that there is a significant relationship between politics of trade-off and pay-off between the legislators and the executive as well as poor commitment to oversight functions by the legislators and legislative oversight in Delta State. The study equally showed that there is a significant relationship between the culture of corruption as well as perceptual legislative subservience to the executive and legislative oversight in Delta State. The study recommended that that the legislature in Nigeria, particularly in Delta State, should be truly independent rather than operate and seen as a subservient extension of the executive arm of government, a new culture that is void of the politics of trade-off and pay-off between the legislature and the executive, as well as corruption, should be established.

Abstract

The study examined the problem of Nigeria’s federalism and the restructuring option. Three null hypotheses were formulated to guide the study and the study is quantitative research adopted the correlational design and four hundred academic staff from five Departments in the Faculty of social sciences all from the six sampled public Universities in the six geopolitical zones in Nigeria were sampled. The primary data that were used for the study was obtained from the federalism and restructuring option questionnaire and chi-square was used to analyze the data obtained. The finding of the study revealed that the inability of the Nigerian state to adopt the restructuring option as a panacea to the unending political and ethnic crises in the nation has a relationship with the poor generating capacity and dependency mentality of the federating units. The study lucidly showed that there is no significant relationship between the nature and character of the age-long North-South tendencies and federalism in Nigeria. The study equally revealed that there is a significant relationship between politics of marginalization, socio-economic development, and participatory/empowerment on federalism in Nigeria. The study recommended that to ensure the peaceful coexistence of Nigeria’s multi-ethnic nationalities, the Nigerian government at different levels, different stakeholders, and concerned bodies should go back to the drawing board and consider the creation of additional states and re-examine the sharing formula based largely on genuine need, derivation, and population. The study also recommended that for the federalism option to succeed in Nigeria, there in need for re-construction, re-formulation, genuine acceptance, and practicability of an appropriate federal arrangement that emphasizes self and national development as well as an equitable fiscal system that accommodates the true power relations and the expenditure and revenue realities of the respective component units in the Nigerian federation.
