Abstract

Purpose: This study investigates the structural, technological, and institutional factors affecting employment growth in Nigeria's service sector from 2010 to 2023. It examines how structural transformation, innovation, and institutional frameworks influence service-sector expansion using global employment data from the World Bank and other sources. Research Methodology: A multilevel analytical framework is applied, focusing on structural changes, innovation dynamics, and institutional influences based on global employment data. Results: By 2023, service-sector employment had grown to over 50% of the total employment, while agricultural employment declined and industrial employment remained stable. Service-sector growth does not automatically lead to inclusive or high-quality employment. Digitalization and innovation have varying effects, with knowledge-intensive services creating higher-skilled jobs, while automation risks displacing routine labor. Institutional quality plays a key role in determining whether service-sector growth follows a high-road path (productivity and decent work) or a low-road path (informality and precarious employment). Conclusions: This study emphasizes the importance of policies ensuring that service-sector growth results in inclusive, sustainable, and high-quality employment. Institutional quality is critical in shaping these outcomes. Limitations: This study is limited by its reliance on secondary data, which may not fully capture local or nuanced employment trends. Contributions: This study provides a multilevel framework integrating structural, technological, and institutional factors, with policy recommendations for middle-income economies seeking sustainable service-sector development.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to examine the influence of substance abuse on the psycho-social health of youths in Taraba State, Nigeria, particularly focusing on emotional stability and self-esteem. Research Methodology: This study employed a quantitative approach using a cross-sectional survey design. Data were collected from 353 youths aged 15–35 years across the sixteen Local Government Areas of Taraba State using structured questionnaires. The sampling technique used was stratified random sampling to ensure representation across the study area. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and simple linear regression through SPSS to determine the effect of substance abuse on emotional stability and self-esteem. Results: The results reveal a significant negative relationship between substance abuse and psychosocial wellbeing. Substance abuse significantly predicts lower emotional stability (? = ?0.385, p < .001) and lower self-esteem (? = ?0.269, p < .001). The findings indicate that higher levels of substance use are associated with emotional dysregulation, anxiety, feelings of guilt and worthlessness, and social withdrawal among youths. Conclusions: The study concludes that substance abuse significantly undermines the psycho-social health of youths in Taraba State, contributing to emotional instability, reduced self-esteem, and broader psychological distress that may reinforce cycles of dependency. Limitations: The study is limited by the cross-sectional design and reliance on self-reported data, which may affect generalizability. Contributions: The study provides empirical evidence to support the development of youth-cantered mental health interventions, community awareness programs, and improved rehabilitation services to reduce substance abuse and enhance youth wellbeing in Taraba State.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to examine the legal framework regulating unlicensed mining crimes in Indonesia and the role of the police in investigating such offenses. Specifically, this research focuses on the jurisdiction of the Bintan Police and explores the challenges and solutions for investigating illegal mining activities. Research Methodology: This study adopts a normative juridical method, utilizing a literature review for legal analysis, and an empirical juridical approach, which includes field studies to collect data through interviews with law enforcement personnel and community members involved in illegal mining. Results: This study finds that while Law No. 3 of 2020 provides a legal basis for prosecuting unlicensed mining, the effectiveness of enforcement is hindered by challenges such as limited resources, complex geographic areas, a lack of public legal awareness, and local community involvement in illegal mining activities. Despite police efforts, illegal mining continues to increase in regions such as Bintan. Conclusions: The research concludes that enhancing police capacity through training, improving resources, and fostering better community engagement are essential to effectively combating illegal mining. Increased coordination between local and central authorities is also necessary to comprehensively address this issue. Limitations: This study is limited by its geographic focus on Bintan and the availability of data from local law enforcement agencies. Further research is needed in other regions for broader generalization Contributions: This study provides valuable insights into the operational challenges of law enforcement in tackling illegal mining and offers actionable recommendations for improving police effectiveness in such investigations

Abstract

Purpose: This study explores how contemporary African cinema challenges the assumptions of Third Cinema, particularly its focus on linear temporality, clear ideology, and a uniform, politically educable audience. African filmmakers, through narrative innovation, ritualized performance, spiritual cosmologies, and non-linear temporalities, show that resistance can be subtle, multifaceted, and not always overt or ideologically prescriptive. Research Methodology: The study employs qualitative analysis, examining contemporary African films and their narrative techniques, ritualized performances, and spiritual themes. It critiques the impact of digital platforms, streaming economies, and global festival circuits on audience reception and political engagement in African cinema. Results: The research finds that African cinema transcends the limitations of Third Cinema by demonstrating that resistance in films emerges from form, rhythm, and interpretive complexity, rather than overt political messaging. It highlights how African cinema challenges colonial and postcolonial representations, particularly through its portrayal of women and ethical, social, and historical engagement. Conclusions: The study concludes that Third Cinema serves as a critical point of departure, not a rigid framework, for understanding African cinema. It shows that revolutionary potential lies in subtlety, multiplicity, and temporal depth, offering a reflective and relational form of resistance. Limitation: The study is limited to contemporary African cinema and may not address earlier works or other global film theories outside Third Cinema. Contributions: This paper contributes to the discourse on African cinema by positioning it as a challenge to revolutionary film theory. It highlights how African cinema negotiates power, circulation, and audience interpretation, reframing resistance for the twenty-first century.

Abstract

Purpose: This study explores the counter-anthropological approach of Sembène Ousmane’s novels and films, examining how his works interrogate African social life by challenging colonial and postcolonial epistemologies. The research highlights the role of literature and cinema as instruments of ethical, social, and historical knowledge, with a focus on the portrayal of women as central ethical actors. Research Methodology: The study uses a qualitative methodology, combining literary analysis, film studies, and social theory to analyze Sembène’s works, such as God’s Bits of Wood, Xala, Ceddo, Borom Sarret, and Moolaadé. It explores Sembène’s cinematic techniques, including close-ups, spatial framing, and ensemble staging, to understand how these techniques reveal moral and social agency within African communities. Results: The research finds that Sembène’s works challenge colonial and postcolonial misrepresentations of African societies, emphasizing agency, relationality, and moral deliberation. Women are shown as central figures in shaping communal life and challenging patriarchal structures. Religious practices are depicted as dynamic frameworks for ethical reasoning, not static rituals. Conclusions: Sembène constructs a counter-anthropological methodology that provides an insider perspective of African life. His works depict African societies as historically conscious and morally reflective, contrasting with reductive colonial portrayals. Limitation: The study focuses on selected works, which may limit a broader understanding of Sembène’s entire oeuvre. Contributions: This paper contributes new insights into African literature and cinema, offering a nuanced counter-anthropological lens to explore social life, agency, and women’s roles in postcolonial Africa.
