Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to examine the level of personnel resources, financial capacity, administrative capability and political support in Hoima district local government in mid-western Uganda. Research Methodology: A descriptive survey of 194 respondents comprising of elected local councillors and technical officials were randomly selected from Hoima district. Four issues were investigated, namely personnel resources, financial capacity, administrative capability and political support. SPSS (version 15) was used for data analysis. A total of 164 respondents took part in the study. Results: Policy implementation at local governments in Uganda was moderate; this was manifested in terms of personnel resources, financial capacity, administrative capability and political support, which, if each of them can be improved, the degree of policy implementation will improve. Financial and non-financial factors both need to be improved for achieving a preferred level of policy implementation at local governments. Limitations: This study zeroed on policy implementation alone and yet a number of issues affecting policy implementation may not necessarily originate from it but from policy formulation, which was never covered. Contribution: This study highlights the four aspects in policy implementation, viz. personnel resources, financial resources, administrative capability, and political support; these are very significant to policy managers at grass root government. Hoima district is encouraged to consider all four aspects for effective policy implementation.

Abstract

Purpose: Nigeria is characterized by ethnic diversity and the quest to achieve ‘unity in diversity’ led to its adoption of federalism as the basic structure and principle of governance. Over six decades after independence, the country remains sharply divided along ethnic lines, and national unity remains a mirage. While there is a burgeoning body of research on the causes, manifestations, and consequences of ethnic diversity mismanagement in Nigeria, few attempts have been made to analytically study the effects of constitutional provisions on the phenomenon. The study, thus, examined the effects of the indigeneity clause in the Nigerian constitution on ethnic diversity management in the country. Research methodology: The study is based on a review of secondary data on Nigeria’s constitutional provisions and institutional processes. Results: It identified that the indigeneity clause in the country’s constitutions has created different notions of citizenship and further exacerbated differences between ethnic groups in the country. The clause established two classes of Nigerians, indigenes, and settlers, and the ensuing ‘us against them’ culture lies at the root of ethnic tensions witnessed in the country. Limitations: Other issues, apart from the indigeneity clause, may also lead to the mismanagement of ethnic diversity in the country. Contribution: The findings and recommendations of the study provide a veritable template to help ensure good ethnic diversity management in Nigeria and other multi-ethnic states.

Abstract

Purpose: Opposition political parties are generally believed to be weak in Africa and particularly in Nigeria. Despite their centrality to the democratic consolidation, opposition parties are not performing the critical role as watchdogs to the ruling party partly because of their sizes or fragmentations. This study examined the role of the ruling political party in Nigeria and, by extension, the Nigerian government in making opposition parties be perpetually weak to ensure its hold on power. Research methodology: The study employed qualitative data in carrying out the research. Results: From the contextual analysis of the literature reviewed, the study discovered that weak political institutions and a lack of political will are largely at the heart of the problem in Nigeria. Recommendations: It posited that transparency and political will on the part of the ruling party and the government will create a level playing field for all political parties to thrive.

Abstract

Purpose: This study discusses the problem of neutrality of civil servants in the government of Malaka Regency. There are indications of violations committed by civil servants during the campaign period. Research methodology: This research is a case study where the researcher investigates the phenomena that exist in the field.

Limitations: Researchers find it difficult to meet civil servants in the Malaka district. Contribution: Propose efforts to prevent the dilemma of neutrality of civil servants in the 2020 Malaka Regional Head Election by implementing a merit system, clear division of tasks and free from political interference, rational hierarchical authority structure, impersonal relations between members, mechanism for appointment or recruitment and promotion of employee positions civil service based on technical skills and bureaucratic reform.

Limitations: Some of the major limitations to the research work are time restrictions, access to adequate kinds of literature, documents, and data that can help the researcher. Contributions: The research can be instrumental to the growth and improve the level of women’s political participation because women do not get the needed encouragement in the political arena.

Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to determine the forms of Hajj diplomacy carried out by the Indonesian government to overcome the long waiting period for Hajj pilgrims. Research methodology: This study used a qualitative research method that utilizes secondary data as the data source. The secondary data mostly refer to various publications, such as books, journals, news, archives, social media, the official website of the Indonesian Ministry of Religious Affairs, and other sources that are factual and relevant to the topic. Results: The Indonesian government uses two tracks of diplomacy in Hajj affairs. The first track of diplomacy is bilateral relations with the Saudi Arabian government, either through meetings between the heads of the state or meetings with other relevant stakeholders. Meanwhile, the second track diplomacy is through the relationship between Indonesian non-governmental actors such as Indonesian Hajj and Umrah travel entrepreneurs with the Saudi Arabian authorities to obtain non-governmental Hajj quotas or commonly referred to as Hajj Furoda from the Saudi Arabian government. Conclusion: These two forms of diplomacy reflect Indonesia’s adaptive strategy in managing Hajj demand amid quota limitations, balancing state and non-state cooperation. Limitations: This study focused only on the years 2015–2023. It also relies on secondary data that may not provide a comprehensive understanding of the dynamics and processes underlying Indonesia's Hajj diplomacy. Furthermore, this study only explores one non-state actor involved in Hajj diplomacy, namely, Hajj and Umrah travel entrepreneurs. Contributions: This study provides valuable insights and recommendations to policymakers, researchers, and stakeholders regarding the dynamics of Indonesia's Hajj diplomacy and its impact on international relations.

Results: The efforts made by the North Lampung Regency Ministry of Religion Office should be more diverse, and it is hoped that outreach will not only be carried out within the community, but will focus more on schools. Limitations: There are several factors that hinder the efforts of the North Lampung Regency Ministry of Religion to prevent early marriage. Starting with promiscuity, which cannot be avoided and is not balanced with sufficient understanding, people do not clearly know the impact of promiscuity, which results in early marriage. Contributions: The prevention of early marriage requires active community participation. Community participation in preventing early marriage can involve education about the risks and consequences of marriage at a young age, sexual education, and the promotion of gender equality.
