Abstract

The prevalence of domestic violence in Nigeria remains alarmingly high, exhibiting no discernible indications of decline. Prevalence of this phenomenon is observed among couples irrespective of their age, ethnic background, religious affiliation, or socioeconomic standing.  This study aims to investigate the relationship between poverty and dissatisfaction as predictors of spousal violence among sandwich students. The research employed a descriptive design of the ex-post-facto kind. A multi-stage selection procedure was employed to pick a sample of 120 respondents from three departments. The participants were assessed using appropriate standardized measures (instruments) and the collected data were subjected to statistical analysis utilizing the percentage and Pearson Product Moment Correlation (PPMC) and Multiple Regression techniques at a significance level of 0.05. Hence, in light of the research indicating a significant correlation between poverty and domestic violence, it is suggested that counseling professionals and psychologists should enhance their endeavors to organize seminars for student couples.

Abstract

Ethical development in children is pivotal for shaping societies grounded in integrity, empathy, and social responsibility. In the Nigerian context, this development is shaped by the dynamic interplay of family structures, educational systems, and cultural values. This literature review critically examines existing research on how these factors collectively influence moral growth among Nigerian children. Emphasis is placed on the family as the foundational unit of moral transmission, highlighting the impact of parenting styles, religious practices, and communal values. The review also explores the role of the educational system in promoting ethical reasoning through formal curricula, character education, and community service while acknowledging systemic challenges such as teacher capacity, curriculum gaps, and institutional corruption. Cultural influences, including traditional African ethics, religious teachings, and the pressures of globalization and digital media, are analyzed to understand their complex effects on children's moral orientation. Drawing on peer-reviewed journal articles, policy documents, and empirical studies, the review adopts an integrative approach to synthesizing both indigenous and global perspectives. However, it recognizes limitations in the existing literature, including a scarcity of Nigeria-specific empirical studies, uneven methodological rigor, and the underrepresentation of indigenous moral frameworks. By addressing these gaps, this review aims to provide both theoretical insight and practical recommendations. It advocates a multidimensional strategy that reinforces family engagement, integrates culturally relevant moral education, and mobilizes religious and societal institutions. Ultimately, this literature review offers a contextual blueprint for nurturing a morally resilient generation equipped to navigate the ethical complexities of contemporary Nigerian society
