Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic fundamentally transformed modes of communication by shifting reliance toward digital communication technologies (DCTs) in response to physical distancing measures. Against this backdrop, this study examined the adoption and use of DCTs in selected federal parastatals in Nigeria during the Covid-19 era, with a particular focus on benefits, challenges, and implications for work, education, and mental health. A survey research design was employed, and data were collected through questionnaires administered to staff of the National Productivity Centre (NPC) and the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) in Abuja. The findings reveal a high level of DCT adoption within both organizations, particularly for virtual meetings, which served as supportive tools in mitigating the disruptive effects of the pandemic. However, challenges such as limited digital literacy among civil servants, unequal access to reliable online services, and the overwhelming proliferation of online information were found to exacerbate anxiety, social tensions, and discriminatory behaviors. The study concludes that bridging the digital divide is critical, recommending that policymakers prioritize affordable access to DCTs, while organizations should invest in upgrading digital infrastructure and skills, benchmarking against high-performing institutions to enhance competitiveness. By illuminating the dual role of DCTs as both enablers and potential stressors, this study underscores their long-term significance in shaping organizational resilience and social interaction in a post-pandemic future.

Abstract

This study assessed the adoption of social media for broadcasting at Armed Forces Radio Abuja and FRCN Precious FM Lafia, Nasarawa State, Nigeria. Guided by the Diffusion of Innovations theory, the study employed a survey research design using a questionnaire to elicit data from respondents. Given the study population of 157, census sampling was adopted. The findings showed that social media adoption for broadcasting in the selected stations remains at a moderate level, indicating that Nigeria is still in an evolving stage of adoption. The results further revealed that social networking platforms, particularly Facebook, WhatsApp, and Twitter/X, are the primary social media tools used for broadcasting at Armed Forces Radio Abuja and FRCN Precious FM Lafia, as affirmed by the majority of respondents. Although these platforms have been adopted, their level of utilization remains moderate and below optimal, suggesting that the integration of social media into broadcasting practice is still developing. The study also found that social media adoption has both positive and negative implications for broadcasting, although the positive influence appears to be more dominant. These findings highlight the continuing transition of broadcast media in Nigeria toward digital engagement and underscore the need for stronger institutional commitment to effective social media integration. The study concludes that improved adoption and more strategic use of social media platforms are essential to strengthen administrative functions, expand online presence, and enhance audience engagement in the contemporary digital broadcasting environment.

Abstract

This study examines the regulatory policy governing Public Relations (PR) practice in Nigeria, with a focus on its effectiveness in promoting ethical standards and professionalism. Adopting a survey research design, the study is anchored on the Excellence Theory and the Synergistic Communication for Development (SCD) model, which together emphasize strategic communication and collaborative development approaches. A sample of 333 respondents was determined using the Taro Yamane sample size formula, and data were collected using structured questionnaires. Findings reveal that a majority of respondents believe the application of regulatory policies in PR practice encourages adherence to global standards and discourages ethical violations. Furthermore, the implementation of these policies has contributed to a reduction in unprofessional practices, thereby enhancing the overall effectiveness of regulatory frameworks in the Nigerian PR industry. The study concludes that regulatory policies are largely effective in promoting professionalism in PR practice. It recommends, among other measures, that regulatory bodies streamline administrative registration processes to encourage wider enrollment and compliance, ultimately fostering a more ethical and standardized PR profession in Nigeria.
