Abstract

This study examines the role of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) as a critical enabler of organizational communication, with a focus on its implementation within a commercial bank in Nigeria. ICT encompasses a wide range of technologies used for the processing and dissemination of information, and its integration has profoundly influenced communication practices, organizational structures, and managerial operations across various sectors. Within organizational contexts, ICT tools such as computers, telephones, email, databases, video conferencing, and search engines have significantly enhanced internal and external communication efficiency. This study aims to assess the extent to which ICT facilitates organizational communication and supports collaboration, information dissemination, and employee engagement. A structured questionnaire was randomly distributed among employees of the selected bank, and the collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, including mean scores and percentages, with the aid of SPSS software. The results indicate a positive perception of ICT’s role in enhancing communication processes, boosting employee morale, supporting collaboration, and contributing to the achievement of organizational goals. These findings underscore the strategic importance of ICT in modern organizational communication and highlight the need for continued investment in technological infrastructure to improve communication effectiveness and overall organizational performance.

Abstract

As the global energy landscape evolves, the oil and gas industry is undergoing a significant transformation in response to growing demands for sustainability, operational efficiency, and reduced environmental impact. Encompassing the exploration, extraction, refining, and distribution of petroleum and natural gas, the sector remains a critical economic driver while contending with volatile market dynamics, geopolitical pressures, and increasingly stringent environmental regulations. Emerging technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), big data analytics, and artificial intelligence (AI) are being deployed to optimize energy usage, improve operational efficiency, and lower emissions. Innovations including real-time monitoring and predictive maintenance are contributing to cost reduction and a decreased environmental footprint. While the industry plays a pivotal role in meeting global energy needs, it faces mounting pressure to transition toward cleaner energy solutions. Many companies are investing in renewable energy sources and carbon capture technologies to align with international decarbonization targets. Nevertheless, the shift presents substantial challenges, including high capital investment requirements, infrastructure limitations, and cybersecurity risks associated with digitalization. These complexities underscore the industry's ongoing struggle to balance economic viability with environmental responsibility.

Abstract

This research investigates the demographic characteristics of patients diagnosed with Benign Prostate Hypertrophy (BPH) at the Federal Medical Centre (FMC) Azare, Bauchi State, from 2014 to 2018. BPH, characterized by the non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland, is recognized as the most common urological condition affecting adult males globally. The study aims to determine the number of patients diagnosed and treated with BPH, identify the most affected age group, examine the family structure most commonly associated with the condition, and assess the parity of affected patients. A descriptive survey design was adopted, utilizing anecdotal records from 423 patients diagnosed with BPH during the study period representing a full enumeration of the target population. Data were analyzed using percentages and presented in frequency distribution tables. The findings revealed that the highest number of BPH cases occurred in 2018. The most affected age group was between 50 and 80 years (44%), with patients from polygamous families comprising the majority (79%). Furthermore, 54% of patients had five or more children. Based on these results, the study recommends that health professionals intensify educational efforts targeting men at risk of BPH, focusing on its causes and prevention. Additionally, government support is urged, particularly in the provision of medical assistance such as medications for affected individuals.
