Abstract

This paper investigates the issue of incorporating traditional rulers into Nigeria's modern local government system with the goal of resolving issues that arise from the interface of tradition and modernity in Warri South Local Government Area of Delta State. This theoretical paper draws its arguments primarily from secondary sources of data, such as existing legal frameworks and other associated policies, journal publications, and textbooks. This paper shows how traditional leadership institutions strategically used decentralized governance policy reforms to reestablish themselves as the mainstay in grassroots politics. This review is placed within the framework of the debate over the worth of traditional leadership institutions, in the twin processes of democratic transformation and decentralized governance. While the opposing side of the debate dismisses them as mere impediments, the other contends that they are assets that can be used to effectively domesticate reforms, because traditional leaders exhibit ethical principles such as political transparency, accountability, and probity. While research finding showed that traditional leaders possess the capacity to play an advisory role in efforts to institutionalize and customize reforms to the necessities of the community but their poor material circumstances make them unanimously readily available targets for politicians intent on fulfilling their own intended political objectives. The paper thus recommended, among other things, that local government actors and traditional authorities in Warri South Local Government Area should see one another as partners in progress and foster mutual respect and understanding. They must be aware that they cannot function in a watertight compartment and should therefore be cooperative and tolerant.

Abstract

This study examines the role of social mobilization in mitigating climate change impacts on vulnerable populations in the Niger Delta. This study adopted the cross-sectional survey design using questionnaire. Though the region constitutes nine states with a total population of 44,654,600, three States are purposely selected namely Bayelsa, Delta and Rivers with a population size of 15,650,300. A sample size of four hundred (400) was determined using the sample size Yemane’s formula. out of the four hundred (400) questionnaires distributed, only three hundred and seventeen (317) were retrieved from respondents, representing seventy-nine-point three percent (79.3%) response rate. The hypothesis was tested using linear regression and t-test at a 0.05 level of significance with the aid of the Statistical Package of Social Science (SPSS version 23.0). the study revealed that social mobilization significantly impacts the mitigation of climate change's adverse effects on vulnerable communities within Nigeria's Niger Delta. Regression analysis confirms that social mobilization plays a statistically significant role in reducing climate vulnerability. The concluded that a successful climate adaptation must be centered on the right policy tools that permeate all strategic ministries, departments and agencies at the state and regional institutions backed by strong political will, public awareness, stakeholders’ participation and consistent action plan which are not yet available and accessible in the Niger Delta region and therefore not being integrated in social development programmes. The study therefore recommended among others that governments at local and national levels should prioritize investments in the Niger Delta's infrastructure, healthcare, and educational facilities to build trust within communities. These improvements could foster a positive perception of governmental commitment and motivate community members to engage in climate resilience efforts.

Abstract

Purpose: This study investigates the adoption of remote work in Nigerian public agencies, focusing on the challenges and opportunities associated with teleworking in a sector traditionally centered on office-based operations. The study aims to provide insights into how remote work can be effectively implemented to enhance productivity, employee satisfaction, and organizational flexibility. Methodology: A qualitative research approach was adopted, involving semi-structured interviews with HR managers, policymakers, and employees across various public agencies. Thematic analysis was employed to identify recurring patterns, perceptions, and organizational experiences related to remote work adoption. Results and Findings: The study reveals that while remote work offers opportunities such as increased flexibility, improved work-life balance, and potential cost savings, several challenges hinder its adoption. Key barriers include inadequate ICT infrastructure, lack of formal remote work policies, and low digital literacy among employees. Organizational culture and supervisory practices were found to significantly influence employees’ willingness and ability to engage in telework. Originality: This study contributes to the limited empirical literature on remote work in the Nigerian public sector, highlighting contextual factors unique to government agencies and offering practical insights for HRM practitioners. Conclusion: Strategically planned remote work policies, supported by technological investments and capacity-building initiatives, are essential to successfully integrate teleworking in Nigerian public sector.

Abstract

The challenge of achieving a satisfactory balance between work and family life has become an increasingly significant concern for men in contemporary organisations, as shifting gender roles, economic pressures, and evolving organisational expectations redefine traditional notions of masculinity and breadwinning. Historically, men were perceived primarily as economic providers, with limited scholarly attention paid to their family responsibilities. This study adopts a historical research method, drawing on existing literature, policy documents and longitudinal workplace studies to trace the evolution of men’s work–family roles and organisational responses over time. The study is anchored on Role Strain Theory, which explains how competing demands from work and family roles generate tension, stress and conflict when individuals lack adequate resources or institutional support. Findings reveal that men increasingly experience work–family conflict due to long working hours, rigid organisational cultures, limited access to family-friendly policies and persistent stigma surrounding male caregiving. Despite policy advancements in areas such as parental leave and flexible working, organisational practices often discourage men from utilising these provisions, thereby reinforcing the imbalance. The study concludes that work–family balance challenges among men are not solely individual issues but are deeply embedded in organisational structures, norms and policy implementation gaps. Without intentional organisational reform, these challenges will continue to affect employee wellbeing, job satisfaction and productivity. It is recommended, among others, that organisations actively normalise and encourage men’s participation in family-friendly programmes through inclusive policy design, leadership support and cultural change initiatives that redefine work–family balance as a shared responsibility.
