Abstract

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is the Electoral Management Body (EMB) established in Nigeria to deliver free, fair, and credible elections through a transparent and peaceful process. However, the origin of violence perpetrated during elections with wanton destruction of public and private property, including loss of lives all over the country, calls for an examination of the role of INEC in this regard. This study used historical method analyses to examine the role of INEC. The study found out that though INEC has, to a large extent, performed its role and also helped to deepen democracy in Nigeria since its establishment in 1998. Further studies also found that INEC’s poor organisational abilities, lack of essential transparency, widespread procedural irregularities, substantial evidence of fraud, widespread voter disenfranchisement at different stages of the process, etc., have been responsible for the numerous incidences of conflict in the country during elections. This paper concludes and recommends that external challenges, such as security, inadequate funding, and the desperation amongst Nigerian politicians, be moderated and curtailed with a synergy between the Legislature and Executive arms. At the same time, the judiciary plays its role well, including that INEC employs professional ethics amongst its staff with organisational and logistical efficiency and effectiveness in the electoral process. INEC’s role will be overtly transparent and therefore lead to the delivery of peaceful rather than conflict-infected elections.

Abstract

This paper critically analyses Pan-Africanism as an ideology for the liberation of Africa, with a view to assessing the possibilities of a common African citizenship. This paper argues the claim that the focus of Pan-Africanism should shift from activism, agitations, and struggles to a univocal platform that will define authentic African identities by crystallising a common nationality for Africans on the continent and those in the diaspora. This claim is known to be rooted in the age-long African values of brotherhood, complementarity, and family hood (Ujamaa) that make Africans see other Africans as brothers who share the same humanity. This is different from the Africans of today who have assimilated western values of individualism, which are divisive and exclusive in nature, which in reality is a negation of authentic African personhood and society. This has given rise to ethnic agitations, xenophobic attacks, populism and hatred against "outsiders". Therefore, it is in the forging of common identities for Africans that African citizenship can be made possible. It should be the way forward for Pan-Africanism in the 21st century. Thus, in this paper, we employ the philosophical method of critical analysis in carrying out our investigation of the various issues that necessitated this research work.

Abstract

This research attempted to explore the types of taboo expressions in the MLBB game chat and ascertain the reaction to the taboo words adopted in the MLBB game chat. The Qualitative Content Analysis Method was applied in this study. The researcher interviewed three MLBB game players and took screenshots of their in-game chat comments in order to gather the data. The results demonstrate that while not all MLBB players adopt the types of taboo language, there was one player who exclusively utilized it. The category with the greatest data is vulgar terms, with 32 words or 40% of the total; the second category is epithets and obscenity, with 22 words or 27.5% of the total; and the third category is profanity, with just 4 words or 5% of the total. Factors that contribute to players employing taboo words in MLBB games include their desire to draw attention, insult teammates or enemies, and provoke opponents to make the game exciting. Upon insulting and provoking their opponents, players feel relieved and pleased because their emotions were let out in the game. Subsequently, the findings have significant ramifications for enhancing learners' awareness of taboo language and contributing to the advancement of linguistic disciplines.

Abstract

Immanuel Kant, the eminent Western philosopher, discusses several significant themes in the context of political ideas that are strewn across his various books. In this study, one of the challenges is to organise Kant’s valuable notes on political ideas in a systematic yet critical manner to reflect his philosophy of law. Kant’s theoretical and practical philosophies have influenced the idea of law, which is an a priori concept of the human mind, in several ways. It is also conceivable, by virtue of Kant’s philosophy of law, to identify the inherent connection between moral and political philosophy. This study will illustrate the connection between the moral and political philosophy of Immanuel Kant and the philosophy of law. This work is carried out through the method of context and critical analysis. This work is organised into three sections. The first portion of the introduction will analyse the definition of law and its connection to the philosophy of law; the second part will study the broad notion of law and its different varieties; and the third section will investigate whether Kant’s political philosophy is consistent enough to accommodate the different types of laws. This work submits that Kant’s philosophy is quite consistent with the philosophy of law. In particular, this work submits that there is a theoretical link between Kant’s political philosophy and natural law, moral law, political law, international law, and cosmopolitan law.

Abstract

History provides the framework for literary production and the corroboration of historical controversies. Identity is implicated in the controversy of My Name is Okoro. This paper, through the application of new criticism as an analytic framework, examines identity as a thin line between life and death in My Name is Okoro. It further examines how identity is self-definition and survival. Many scholars have focused their literary analysis on the effects of the Nigerian Civil War without paying attention to the role of naming and identification during the war. This study also highlights that in times of crisis, identity protect the individuals who are associated with the side that wills more physical and military power. Identity is factor that affects the survival of individual in the society. This paper concludes that those of minority extraction as well as the Igbo of the Eastern region suffered greatly as a result of their identity in My Name is Okoro.
