Abstract

Covid-19 took the world by surprise, resetting world events for most of 2020. The educational system was negatively affected as students were forced to remain at home for several months without receiving teacher instructions. To engage the students remotely, most schools adopted e-learning to facilitate instructions so that the students would not waste their academic time to the pandemic. E-learning became a platform to ensure teachers connect with their students outside the classrooms. This study occurred among three purposively selected schools in Keffi Local Government Area Council of Nasarawa State, Nigeria. This research aimed to assess teachers’ perceptions of adopting digital technologies in giving instructions during the pandemic. Findings from the study show that digital technologies were quite valuable and beneficial to the teachers in providing instructions to the students. Further findings reveal that even though digital technologies proved helpful in providing instruction to the students, teachers faced challenges like unstable power supply, high cost of purchasing data and distractions from family members and friends. The study, among others, recommends that government and private individuals invest heavily in infrastructure to enable teachers to be better equipped to give instructions via digital media technologies.

Abstract

The World Information Order otherwise known as the New World Information Order (NWIO) can also be referred to or viewed as the New World Information and Communication Order (NWICO). The term or concept describes the aspirations and yearnings of the Global South for the establishing of a world where there is democratisation of the international communication system and a rebalancing of the global information flow channels. This conceptual study sought to reassess the concept in light of the development and advancement in technologies including social media – where information flow has been liberalised in diverse ways. The discourse is built around and/or aligned to a democratic liberal approach in respect of the use of social media in the digitally evolving world. The researchers argued that social media reinvigorated the quest by the Global South to ensure information flow worldwide and that is an indication of a fight for democratisation of the communication system. The study concluded that though the traditional media circle gradually tilts to all-encompassing communication and information in the world, the pace is slow and that gap created is now (in some dimension) bridged by social media platforms – Facebook, Instagram, Twitter (now X) and many more.

Abstract

This paper examines the roles and responsibilities in the country’s development toward the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The media in any society is fundamentally a development partner. Whether combating diseases or disseminating critical messages about development plans and actions to the public, the media is a key stakeholder. In Nigeria, the government, in collaboration with development agencies and other relevant stakeholders, has actively sought pathways to actualize the SDGs. The media are among these important stakeholders. The Nigerian press and media to serve the people and development across the nation present a good opportunity. However, this study observes that after SDGs were developed in 2015 and adopted by United Nations members, they remained unattended after the deadline. Against this backdrop, this study evaluates Nigeria’s development in light of the SDGs. Using a library research approach, the researchers examined the literature to interrogate the roles and responsibilities of the Nigerian media in achieving these goals. The study finds that the Nigerian media played vital roles in the processes leading to actualizing of the goals and identified key areas where improvement is required. It concludes the potential of the Nigerian press and media in paving their way to contribute further to the SDGs actualization and to the development of Nigeria.

Abstract

Insecurity has become a major social and national concern in Nigeria, particularly in Plateau State. Broadcast media play an important role in disseminating information, shaping public awareness, and supporting efforts aimed at insecurity management. The study adopted a mixed methods research design, combining both quantitative and qualitative approaches. Quantitative data were collected through structured questionnaires administered to audiences of selected broadcast stations in Plateau State, while qualitative data were obtained through in-depth interviews with key informants and audience members. The quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics such as frequencies and percentages, while the qualitative interview responses were analyzed thematically to complement and explain the survey findings. The findings revealed that straight news (42.5%) was the most commonly used programme format for communicating insecurity-related information, followed by discussion programmes (28.3%), analytical commentary (15.0%), and special reports (14.2%). However, audiences indicated a stronger preference for discussion-based programmes, as they offer deeper analysis and expert insights. The study also found that broadcast media messages largely emphasize government actions and security agency interventions, while less attention is given to community-based security initiatives. Audience exposure to insecurity-related broadcast messages was moderate, and the perceived effectiveness of these programmes in insecurity management was also moderate.
