Conclusions: The study concluded that post-colonial literature remains an essential medium for exploring the complex dynamics of resistance, liberation, and transformation, offering profound insights into the continuing impacts of colonial histories on contemporary identities. Limitations: The study lies in its focus on Anglophone texts, which may overlook the nuances present in works written in other languages.

Abstract

Purpose: This study critically examines the widely held belief that financial inclusion and governance are essential to understanding the evolution of highly complex structures and systems within higher education. Research Methodology: This study adopted a qualitative, multifaceted approach centered on case studies and a learning analytics strategy to evaluate institutions' effectiveness in achieving intended outcomes. Results: The study revealed that inadequate government funding, weak policies, and limited stakeholder engagement have significantly affected the governance of state-owned universities. Over-reliance on dwindling donor funding has also impacted research and innovation within these institutions. Conclusions: The findings emphasize the need for improved financial management systems, better access to financial services, and policy reforms in state-owned universities to enhance governance and sustainability. Limitations: This study is limited in its exclusive focus on public universities, which may not fully capture the broader spectrum of experiences across different educational settings, such as private institutions or vocational schools. Contributions: This study contributes to the link between financial inclusion and governance in higher education institutions by offering insights that can guide policy and institutional reforms in educational settings within the country.
