Abstract

Using yearly data series spanning 41 years, from 1981 to 2021, the research empirically evaluates the influence of FDI on poverty in Nigeria. The study's dependent variable was the poverty rate (PVT), while the independent variables were foreign direct investment (FDI) into agriculture (FDI), manufacturing (FDIM), services (FDIS), trade openness (OPN), and exchange rate (EXR). Statistical tools such as descriptive analysis, unit root testing, and ECM modelling were used to assess data that was retrieved from secondary sources. Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in the agriculture sector decreases the poverty rate, FDIM in the manufacturing sector increases the poverty rate, FDIS in the service sector increases the poverty rate, OPN decreases the poverty rate, and EXR increases the poverty rate in Nigeria, according to the ECM. Foreign direct investment (FDI) did not alleviate poverty in Nigeria during the research period, the study found. The research concludes that foreign direct investment (FDI) may help Nigeria's economy expand and alleviate poverty if the government takes steps to attract FDI, such as lowering taxes, subsidizing infrastructure, and eliminating import duties

Abstract

This research looks at study habits and examination anxiety as correlates of students’ attitudes towards examination malpractice using government tertiary institutions in Akwa Ibom State as a case study. Survey methodology was employed to collect data from the population of students in tertiary institutions in Akwa Ibom State. A total of 328 people from 10 government tertiary institutions in Akwa Ibom State filled out the survey, The Taro Yamane formula was used to determine a sample size of 400. With a mean criterion of 3.0, the statistical tools of the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) were used to analyze the study's research topics. Reviewing the effects of study habits, causes of examination anxiety, and effects of students’ attitude towards examination malpractice will find that: poor time management, teaching strategies, peer pressure, threats from lectures, poor self-care and confidence, the quest for certificates, etc. all lead to examination malpractice in higher institutions in Akwa Ibom State. The study gave some recommendations and concluded that study habits, examination anxiety, and students’ attitudes have a joint influence on Examination malpractice therefore all hands must be on deck to make sure students in government higher institutions in Akwa Ibom State have a good study habits and attitude, and also eradicate any form of internal (within the educational system) examination anxiety from students so as to achieve knowledge and skills rather than a mere A4 certificate paper.

Abstract

The variables affecting acceptance of mobile banking services among small businesses in Nigeria are discussed in this research. Using a survey questionnaire to gather information from a sample of small-scale entrepreneurs in Nigeria, the study uses a mixed-methods research approach. The qualitative methodology was employed through the use of interviews. For small-scale entrepreneurs in Nigeria, the findings of the research reveal that age, education, income level, easy access and usefulness of mobile money service, security, low price of mobile money service, network availability, government backing, and financial knowledge are the factors influencing the use of mobile money service among small-scale entrepreneurs in Nigeria. While poor financial literacy, limited network availability in rural areas, restricted financial means, security and fraud, lack of mobile phone access, complexity of mobile money service, lack of trust, lack of understanding in the language used by mobile money services, cultural barriers, and inadequate knowledge about the use of mobile money services are the difficulties small-scale entrepreneurs face that affect their use of mobile money services Which is in support of Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) that an individual's inclination to use a technology depends mostly on perceived usefulness (PU) and perceived ease of use (PEU). To encourage small-scale entrepreneurs in Nigeria to use mobile money services, the study suggests that mobile network operators, legislators, and other interested stakeholders should raise awareness and knowledge of them, enhance their perceived value and usability, and address security issues.

Abstract

This study investigated the effects of artificial intelligence (AI) on the cognitive domain of tertiary institution students in Rivers State, Nigeria, aiming to assess AI tools' usage and impact on cognitive skills and learning outcomes and identify challenges and opportunities of AI adoption. Employing a survey research design, the study collected data from 1500 respondents (students and lecturers) across Rivers State's tertiary institutions using a structured questionnaire. Findings revealed significant AI integration, enhancing personalized learning, cognitive skills like analytical thinking and problem-solving, and learning outcomes. AI's management of cognitive load and scaffolding of learning aligned with Cognitive Load Theory and Constructivist Learning Theory. Challenges included infrastructure limitations, training needs, equity concerns, and data privacy risks, while opportunities encompassed enhanced personalization, efficiency, innovative learning tools, and future-ready skills. The study concluded that AI has potential in transforming Rivers State's tertiary institutions' students' education by emphasizing careful implementation and strategic investments. Thus, it is recommended that the government invest in AI infrastructure, teacher training, addressing equity and access concerns, enhancing data security, promoting personalized learning, monitoring AI impact and ethics, and engaging educational stakeholders for effective AI integration in Rivers State.

Abstract

The study investigates how key elements of the knowledge economy, human capital, innovation systems, ICT infrastructure, and institutional frameworks shape the performance of selected Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Drawing on theoretical insights from Endogenous Growth Theory, Schumpeterian Innovation Theory, and Institutional Theory, the research adopts a quantitative design using data obtained from 218 respondents across academia, public-sector agencies, and private organisations. A combination of exploratory and bivariate analyses, with multiple correlations, was applied to investigate these connections. The results reveal that human capital is the most influential determinant of SDG 4 (Quality Education) and SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth). At the same time, ICT infrastructure is the strongest driver of SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure). Institutional fitness significantly contributes to SDG 16 (Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions) and also moderates the effect of innovation systems on SDG outcomes. Reliability indices (mean Cronbach’s α = 0.87) and sampling adequacy tests (KMO = 0.81) confirm a robust measurement structure. The study concludes that strengthening the pillars of the knowledge economy facilitates broad-based progress toward multiple SDGs simultaneously. Consequently, policymakers should prioritise investments in education, digital technology, innovation ecosystems, and governance reforms to foster inclusive, knowledge-driven, sustainable development.
