Abstract

The researchers examined Lagos mainland residents’ perception of media reportage on electricity tariff hike. The objectives of the study were to examine the extent of awareness of Lagos mainland residents of media reportage on electricity tariff hikes; determine the media channel through which the Lagos mainland residents access reports on electricity tariff hikes; investigate the perceived credibility of media reports on electricity tariff hikes among Lagos mainland residents and to explore the relationship between media reportage and public perception of electricity tariff hikes among Lagos mainland residents. The researchers adopted the survey research design, while the questionnaire was used as the instrument for data collection. Findings revealed that the majority of the respondents had a high 164 (43.7%) level of awareness of media reports on electricity tariff and that the majority 169 (45.1%) access the media reportage of the increase through social media and the internet 98 (26.1%). Consequently, the media’s reportage has yielded positive outcomes, including heightened awareness and public discourse on the economic and social implications of the tariff increase, thereby amplifying their voices and advocating for their interests. Ultimately, the researchers recommended that the media should continue to critically report on the electricity tariff hikes, highlighting the impact on the public. It was also recommended that policymakers in Lagos State review the electricity tariff hikes to ensure they are fair and reasonable and take into account the economic and social implications for the public.

Abstract

This study examines the Benin public's perceptions of media framing gender equality in Nigeria and its impact on national development. The study's rationale was to ascertain how media framing practices shape public attitudes and influence policy responses, ultimately affecting the overall advancement of gender equality in Nigeria. Anchored on framing theory, the study employed the survey research design and collected data using a structured questionnaire from 384 respondents in Benin City using the multistage sampling technique. The data were presented in tables and analyzed using frequency counts, straightforward percentages, and mean scores. Findings revealed that the media create awareness of gender equality among the Benin public to a great extent, with social media identified as the most effective platform. Also, the standard frames employed by the media on gender equality issues are social justice and political empowerment frames. However, despite recognizing the media’s effectiveness, concerns about bias and fairness persist. The researchers conclude that while media plays a significant role in raising awareness, there is considerable skepticism regarding the accuracy and bias of these portrayals. Recommendations include efforts that should be made to increase the frequency and consistency of gender equality content across all media platforms, including traditional and digital media, among others.
