Abstract

Media are realized to be the powerful tools in the dissemination and reinforcement of dominant ideologies in order to maintain the status quo thereby serving the interest of the powerful groups at the detriment of the nation’s social justice, economic equality and national development. This study therefore, examines the phenomenon of media hegemony and its impact on the suppression of counter-hegemony in Nigeria. Using Antonio Gramsci's concept of hegemony as a framework, this research investigates how the dominant media landscape in Nigeria reinforces existing power structures, marginalizes alternative voices, and limits the emergence of counter-hegemonic narratives. Through a critical discourse analysis of media operations in Nigeria, their orientations and contents. The study reveals the ways in which media hegemony is maintained and contested in Nigeria. The concentration of media ownership, censorship, and the manipulation of public opinion are key strategies used to suppress counter-hegemony in Nigeria. Furthermore, the study highlights the challenges faced by alternative voices and social movements in promoting counter-hegemonic discourses and resisting dominant narratives. The research contributes to our understanding of the complex dynamics of media hegemony, how media shape power structures, normalizes the views of the ruling class and suppress counter-hegemony in Nigeria; and underscores the need for a more inclusive and diverse media landscape that promotes critical thinking, democratic participation, social equality and social justice.

Abstract

The term "circular economy" has gained popularity over the past decade, particularly in sustainability, resource management, and productivity. Increasingly, both public and private organizations are exploring its application in daily operations. This article reviews the literature on Africa's energy transition and whether it can be guided by circular economy principles. The study finds that Africa's energy demand will rise significantly due to industrialization and population growth. While Sub-Saharan Africa relies mainly on renewable energy, countries like Algeria, Nigeria, Morocco, South Africa, and Egypt still depend heavily on fossil fuels. Researchers suggest that a circular economy approach could promote renewable energy adoption. However, more research is needed to explore the potential of circular principles in supporting the energy transition.

Abstract

Rumex acetosa (Polygonaceae) is an ethnomedicinal herb and vegetable used to alleviate pain and inflammation. It is also commonly consumed as food. This study aimed to evaluate the antinociceptive effects of dichloromethane extracts from R. acetosa leaves using in vivo pharmacological models in albino rats. Dried leaf powder was extracted by maceration with dichloromethane (72 h). Acute oral toxicity was determined per OECD guidelines. Analgesic activity was assessed using tail immersion, hot plate (55°C) and acetic acid-induced writhing (0.7%) tests at doses of 50, 100 and 200 mg/kg body weight. Diclofenac sodium (25 mg/kg) served as reference drug. Phytochemical analysis was undertaken to screen major chemical classes. All doses of extract significantly (p<0.05) increased mean basal latency of tail withdrawal and hind paw licking by 46-162% and 63-207% respectively. Maximum analgesic effect comparable to diclofenac was observed at 200 mg/kg. In acetic acid model, extract exhibited marked (p<0.05) reduction in writhing frequency (55.49%) indicative of peripheral action. Preliminary phytochemical studies detected flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins and phenols as major compounds. R. acetosa leaf extracts displayed significant analgesic activity in vivo mediated via both central and peripheral pathways. The findings validate the traditional use of R. acetosa in pain management.

Abstract

These reforms should focus on curriculum updates, graduate competencies, teacher qualifications, funding, and the decentralization of education. One of the key responsibilities of educators is to innovate teaching materials, ensuring they prepare graduates with the necessary technological skills for future careers or entrepreneurship. The introduction of the "Technopreneurship" course under the "Merdeka Curriculum" has been positively received by students, as it equips them with practical skills such as business idea generation, market analysis, and financial proposal creation. However, many students face challenges in maintaining program continuity after receiving funding, with some misusing the funds for personal purchases. This situation underscores the moral obligation of instructors to guide students in becoming ethical entrepreneurs. To address these issues, it is essential to develop case studies that integrate character education into technopreneurship, promoting not only business skills but also honesty, responsibility, and a commitment to social values.

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS) on road safety in Nigeria, focusing on their effectiveness in reducing traffic accidents, public awareness, and the challenges hindering their adoption. Utilizing a descriptive survey research design, data were collected from 310 respondents, including administrators, teachers, and students across various Government Technical Colleges in Adamawa State. The study revealed a strong positive correlation between the availability of ADAS and the reduction of road traffic accidents (r = 0.65, p = 0.002) and a significant association between public awareness of ADAS and safer driving behaviors (r = 0.60, p = 0.003). However, economic and infrastructural challenges were identified as significant barriers to the adoption of these technologies (r = -0.70, p = 0.001). Based on the findings, it is recommended that comprehensive public awareness campaigns be implemented to educate drivers on ADAS benefits, government financial incentives be introduced to encourage the purchase of ADAS-equipped vehicles, investments be made to improve road infrastructure, and research and development initiatives be fostered to create cost-effective ADAS solutions tailored to Nigeria’s driving conditions. Addressing these challenges and implementing these recommendations can lead to enhanced road safety and reduced accident rates, making it essential for stakeholders to collaborate in fostering a safer driving environment.

Abstract

Statistics from Nigeria has shown that the prevalence rate of drug abuse/drug addiction is at the highest peak in various communities. Reports from different studies have proven the damaging effect of drugs when abused on both individuals and the general society at large. Fewer research studies have explored the association between individual characteristics and abuse of drugs especially in rural areas in Nigeria. Therefore, this research study aims to explore the association between individual characteristics and drug abuse using primary data obtained through a survey questionnaire. The binary logistic regression and chi-square statistics were used to scrutinize and determine the extent of the relationship between variables, respectively. The study results showed that most of the drug addicts were male individuals with high school (SSCE) educational qualifications. Also, the employment status of individuals was found to be significantly associated with abuse of drugs (OR = 2.23, CI: 1.24 – 4.00) while age and gender were not significantly associated with abuse of drugs, respectively. The study concludes that unemployment or non-engagement of individuals in any meaningful business/work can lead to the abuse of drugs in the town.

Abstract

This paper relates a concise overview of bacteriophage to serve as an alternative to antibiotics. Antibiotics are meant to kill or inhibit bacteria threatening humans or related biota. Bacteria are able to affect humans or biota due to ability to incite infections. The discovery of antibiotics has been considerably of important to modern medicine until recently when resistance is developing due to evolution and other prevailing forces (such as misuse, abuse, massive use, etc). Therefore, seeking alternative against infectious bacteria is imperative. Phages are viruses that kill bacteria. They are supposed candidates to kill bacteria and combat resistance to antibiotics. The phages are able to specifically invade bacteria, hijacked the host replicating machine, instruct the phage DNA replication, elicit lysis to release upcoming phages. This kills the hosting bacteria. The phages are specific, numerous, and effective. Their use should be enhanced for mankind benefits.

Abstract

Education is an effort to create a learning environment and educational process that encourages the development of students' potential. One of the statistical methods that can be used in the field of education is cluster analysis. Average linkage is a hierarchical clustering algorithm that groups objects based on the average distance between objects in different clusters. In this study, sub-districts were grouped based on education indicators at the primary/elementary level in Samarinda City in 2023. The results of this research obtained 2 clusters that were the most optimal because they had the highest Silhouette coefficient value. Cluster 1 contains the subdistricts of Samarinda Ulu and Sungai Kunjang, while cluster 2 contains the subdistricts of North Samarinda, Palaran, Sungai Pinang, Sambutan, Loa Janan Ilir, Samarinda Ilir, Samarinda Seberang, and Samarinda Kota. Cluster 1 has an advantage over cluster 2 in several aspects of education. Cluster 1 shows a higher average in terms of the number of students, the number of classrooms, the number of institutions, the number of certified teachers, and the number of A-accredited schools at the primary/secondary level in Kota Samarinda in 2023.
