Abstract

Today's generation of young people is the largest the world has ever known, half of the global population is under the age of 25, and young people between the ages of 15-25 constitute one-fifth of this total. Yet, young people are starkly underrepresented in government and politics at virtually every level. The "Not too Young to Run" campaign on social media uses platforms such as Instagram and Twitter to effectively mobilize social support to reduce the age limit for running for elected office in Nigeria. Digital Generative Multimedia Tool Theory (DGMTT) was used in this study. The explanatory research design was adopted, and Google form questionnaire was utilised in collecting data. The population of this study is the Lagos Island youth of Lagos state Nigeria and the purposive sampling was used to determine the sample size of 300 respondents. The responses of the questions were analyzed using frequency tables, and simple percentage method. The findings of this works how that social media played a vital role in spreading and creating awareness for the “Not Too Young to Run” campaign. The study recommended that since the social media is the preferred medium to reach the youths, more campaigns should be done on social media on the benefits of political participation in Nigeria.

Abstract

Electoral democracy provides an impetus for citizens’ participation and the act of choosing political actors across different democracies. Nigeria had transitioned from one civilian administration to another, beginning in 1999 and lasting until 2023. However, the practice of democracy and the conduct of elections appeared challenged even though the electorate “elects” the candidate of their choice in every election circle. Issues such as the imposition of candidates, violence, rigging, and a decline in voter turnout remain major issues of public concern. Previous studies have shown the challenges or factors affecting the conduct of free, fair, and credible elections, which include electoral rigging, imposition of candidates, violence, and low voter turnout, but they have not sufficiently shown how these factors affect the outcome of the election and the legitimacy of the regime change. This study examined how voter participation influenced the crisis of legitimacy in Nigeria’s fourth republic elections. In conducting this investigation, the perspective of theorists was delved into as the theoretical foundation of this study, relying on a qualitative approach, using secondary data, and analyzing via content and historical analysis. The study found that low voter turnout influenced the legitimacy of the regime change. The paper recommended that the electoral body and civil society organizations should be more involved in voter education in order to encourage voter turnout and confer legitimacy on the regime change.

Abstract

Air pollution is an acute problem in developing countries, especially their cities. In Nigeria the sources include vehicle exhaust aggravated by the rising car population, industrial emission, especially from petrochemical industries and cement manufacture, use of gasoline generation as a result of unstable power supply, use of fuel wood for domestic use and energy for small industries. This paper reviews air pollution and control measures in Nigeria. Data for the study was generated through secondary sources. The study discovered that it has been difficult to achieve cooperation for air pollution control in developing countries like Nigeria whose main concern is to provide for the basic needs as food, shelter and employment for her populace. The control measures have not been very effective and fully enforced. This paper therefore proposed preventive measures and sustainable solutions, such as vehicle inspection, enforcement of legislations, effective refuse collection and evacuation and steady supply of electricity to stop use of gasoline generators among others to ensure safe environment for the population to live.

Abstract

Child abuse remains a significant social issue in Nigeria, with long-term consequences for victims and society. The media plays a crucial role in shaping public perception and policy responses to child abuse through its representation of cases, narratives, and framing of the issue. This study examines the media’s portrayal of child abuse in Nigeria, exploring the extent to which news coverage, documentaries, and other forms of media representation influence public awareness, government action, and policy formulation. It analyzes the dominant themes in media reports, including sensationalism, victim-blaming, and advocacy-driven narratives, while assessing the ethical and professional standards maintained by journalists in reporting such cases. Findings suggest that while the media has been instrumental in bringing child abuse cases to public attention, coverage is often inconsistent, and sometimes lacks depth, context, and follow-up reporting. Sensationalized stories may attract public outrage but do not always translate into sustained policy action or structural reforms. Additionally, cultural biases and societal stigma influence the framing of child abuse cases, sometimes shifting the blame onto victims or downplaying the role of systemic failures. This paper argues that effective media representation of child abuse should go beyond episodic reporting to include investigative journalism, human-centered storytelling, and advocacy for policy change. It highlights the need for training journalists on ethical reporting of child abuse and calls for stronger collaboration.

Abstract

The enactment of data protection laws has significantly reshaped the landscape of media and communication in Nigeria. As the country increasingly integrates digital technology into journalism, broadcasting, and online communication, the legal framework surrounding data privacy has become a crucial factor in defining how information is collected, stored, and disseminated. The Nigeria Data Protection Act (NDPA) and other regulatory instruments seek to balance the rights of individuals to privacy with the freedom of expression and access to information, both of which are essential for a thriving democratic society. This paper attempts to explore the possible effect of the new data protection law in Nigeria, on media and communications, specifically PR, advertising and journalism practices respectively. The paper employs qualitative methodology and relies on the interviews; using snowballing and purposive techniques. The study utilizes interpretative phenomenological analysis using in-depth interview. The outcome of the study shows that Mass Communications and its varied specializations (Advertising, PR and Journalism) rely heavily on reliable data since it deals with audiences of distinct characteristics and so messages tailored to these audiences’ needs are backed by the knowledge of their personal data. The study concludes that as a fundamental human right that data protection is, relevant laws that guarantee it are welcome but amendments of such laws have to be continuous and addition to its global harmonization to fill up numerous gaps to ensure fullest protection.

Abstract

Paying attention to various options for understanding legal liability, the position in which legal liability is interpreted as the application of measures of state coercion is recognized as more preferable. Among its features, special attention is paid to such a feature, according to which it entails negative consequences, the imposition of new additional obligations on offenders. This feature should be especially taken into account when differentiating measures of legal (criminal procedural) liability and protective measures (restorative criminal procedural measures). Procedural legal liability is considered as a complex (integrated) legal institution consisting of norms of both branches of procedural and substantive law. In turn, criminal procedural liability, using specific legal norms as an example, is analyzed as a sub-institute of procedural liability. The purpose of this study was to form the author's understanding of criminal procedural liability. The hypothesis is the statement of the fact that in most cases procedural liability is unreasonably understood as one of the types of legal liability
