Abstract

Nigeria’s extensive cultural diversity, spanning over 250 ethnic groups, and its expanding creative economy hold significant potential for advancing sustainable development. However, the underutilization of cultural assets in national development strategies represents a persistent challenge. This study investigates how culture contributes to sustainability in Nigeria and evaluates the extent to which government policies, particularly the 1988 National Cultural Policy, align with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Adopting a qualitative research design, the study analyses policy documents, government reports, and academic literature using thematic and content analyses, guided by the Cultural Heritage and Creativity Framework. Findings reveal that culture has been deployed in sustainability efforts through arts, music, media campaigns, and creative industries to promote civic education, peace-building, and environmental awareness. Despite this progress, weak policy implementation, funding limitations, and exclusion of cultural stakeholders constrain impact. The study concludes that systematic integration of cultural heritage and creativity into development planning, education, and SDG monitoring is crucial to strengthening Nigeria’s sustainability agenda and providing a replicable model for other African states.

Abstract

The rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) presents both transformative opportunities and significant ethical challenges for leadership and governance in Africa. This study examined ethical leadership and governance in the AI era, employing a comparative approach with a focus on Africa's development trajectory. Employing a documentary research Design and secondary sources of data, thematic Analysis was employed as the analytical technique. Thematic Analysis is among the most widely used qualitative data analysis techniques, providing a framework for identifying, analyzing, and interpreting meaning in datasets. The Analysis demonstrates that while AI has the potential to enhance public service delivery, governance effectiveness, and socioeconomic transformation, its use in African contexts is constrained by weak regulatory capability, fragmented governance frameworks, and insufficient ethical monitoring. A comparative analysis of global AI governance models reveals that institutional arrangements and leadership ideals are crucial in determining whether AI systems exacerbate inequality, bias, and democratic weaknesses or promote accountability, inclusivity, and public trust. The study recommended that African governments should invest in moral AI research and build regulatory sandboxes for controlled experimentation and policy development. Interdisciplinary advisory boards, including ethicists, technologists, and community representatives, should be institutionalised to guide AI governance.
