Abstract

Purpose: The paradoxical hesitancy to COVID-19 vaccination amidst the spread of the pandemic, especially the deadly Delta Variant, has remained a source of worry to the global community. Despite assurances of the safety and efficacy of the vaccines and the jabs being publicly administered on top of the Nigerian political hierarchy, COVID-19 vaccination has remained controversial in Nigeria. It appears that citizens' apprehensions about the side effects of the vaccines are yet to be overcome.Methodology:This study investigated the grounds for Nigerian citizens' hesitancy to COVID-19 vaccination. The study asked: What factors underlie Nigerian citizens' hesitancy to COVID-19 vaccination? The quantitative study combined Social Cognitive and Diffusion of Innovations theories as theoretical cornerstones. A survey research design was adopted to study a population of 84 004 084, from which a sample size of 384 respondents was drawn.Findings:The study's findings showed that the reported side effects of COVID-19 vaccines and citizens' distrust of the Nigerian government and health system led to COVID-19 vaccination hesitancy in Nigeria. NAFDAC's warning of fake COVID-19 vaccines being circulated in Nigeria was also found to be a factor that underlies hesitancy to vaccination.Implication:The study recommended, among other things, that national and international health authorities should address apprehensions generated by the reported side effects of COVID-19 vaccines. It was also recommended that Nigerian political leaders should rise to bridge citizens' distrust in the government.

Abstract

Around the globe, there are nations that are in conflict due to one form of incompatibility or the other. The absence of genuine global stakeholders’ commitment to resolve some of these felt conflicts have resulted in avoidable armed conflicts and wars in various regions of the world. Many times, post war reconstruction efforts by global partners hardly heal the infrastructural, economic and psychological devastations caused by international crises. Using the Russia-Ukraine war situation, this paper interrogated the impacts of international crises on nations and people. The study was based on the Relational Dialectics theory which states that the complexities, tensions and conflicting pulls that characterise stakeholder relations due to incompatibilities are opportunities to explore dialogue in the peace-building process rather than contradictions. Being a position article, the paper explored reference materials, especially literature on conflict management processes as the method of study. To forestall the degeneration of international conflicts into major crises, the paper recommended that global partners should demonstrate courage and commitment to wade into international conflicts at felt conflict stages. This will ensure that conditions that could degenerate into serious crises and devastations are nipped in the bud. It was also recommended that the efforts that resulted in the present ceasefire in the Israel-Gaza war amidst heightened devastation and humanitarian conditions, should be replicated to stop other international crises that are plaguing nations and people.
