Abstract

This study examined the impact of Nigeria’s fuel subsidy removal on tourist behavior in River Ethiope, Abraka, Delta State. It investigated how subsidy removal affected travel mode, cost, frequency, demand for tourism products and services, and overall visitor satisfaction. Using a survey and a combination of simple and systematic random sampling, data were collected from tourism visitors. Three hypotheses tested via regression analysis all revealed significant relationships between fuel subsidy removal and tourists’ travel behavior, product/service demand, and satisfaction. The findings indicate that fuel subsidy removal substantially influences tourism patterns in the Abraka region. The study concluded that there is a significant relationship between fuel subsidy removal and the overall satisfaction of tourism visitors in demand for tourism products and services along the River Ethiope region. It recommended, among others, the improvement of coordination among tourism agencies, government financial support for operators, promotion of sustainable tourism, and enhancement of public transport to mitigate subsidy removal effects and improve visitor experiences.

Abstract

The study examined the strategies employed by ECOWAS in promoting democratic government in Nigeria. To achieve a specific objective and research question was derived to guide the study. The structural functionalist theory was used for the study. The historical research design was adopted for the study to help analyze the historical trend of past events to account for the present. Secondary data was collected for the study. The qualitative research method of data analysis that relies on positive literature was used to analyze the research questions. The study discovered that ECOWAS has strategies outlined for the achievement of democratic consolidation in Africa, with emphasis on Nigeria. It further established that ECOWAS is faced with the challenges of funding that inhibit the achievement of the strategies for democratic consolidation. It was recommended that the challenges of funding and implementation of ECOWAS treaties within West Africa and Nigeria can be addressed, with the involvement of independent donors and sponsors within Africa and the diaspora. The study affirmed the need for ECOWAS to design strategies that are amenable to change and flexible due to the dynamic nature of society that is continuously evolving.

Abstract

China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has emerged as a transformative global infrastructure and development project since its launch in 2013. Beyond its economic scope, the initiative is increasingly framed as a strategic vehicle of China’s soft power. However, the reception and interpretation of the BRI vary across regions, influenced by political, economic, and social conditions. This paper investigates the contextual factors shaping perceptions of the BRI in Asia, Latin America, and Africa, using a discursive analytical approach. Findings highlight the importance of local political legitimacy, economic sustainability, and social narratives in mediating China’s influence and underscore the conditional nature of soft power.
