Some authors have attributed this to the fact that public policy decision makers now have more variables to consider in every decision more than ever before. Others have argued that the rate of civilization, globalization and information technology has made the public to be more enlightened and abreast with the activities of government and so can oppose government decisions if they are unfavourable. This tends to increase government need for more and better information in order to satisfy the public. Consequently, this paper examined the issue of fuel subsidy removal in Nigeria, the impact of the policy on the public as well as the country and the role marketing principles would have played if the Nigerian government had taken some time to investigate what should be done, how it should be done and when it should be done. It also proposed a roadmap for future policies that have direct implications for the general public.

Methodology: The study adopted classical migration theory as the theoretical framework and data were sourced from the secondary Sources such as; Journal articles, bulletin, newspaper the United Nations, World Bank development index, International Monetary Fund, and international organizations for migration. The data collated were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Pearson correlation coefficient. Findings: The findings revealed that there is a significant negative relationship between cross border migration and unemployment in Nigeria while for Benin Republic; there is a negative but insignificant relationship between cross border and unemployment. The paper thus concludes that cross border migration reduces the rate of unemployment in Nigeria, but has no impact in Benin Republic. Unique Contribution to Theory, Policy ...

In recent times, The Nigerian political system has witnessed increased political thuggery and at the same time experienced rising insecurity ranging from kidnapping, armed robbery, ritual killings, terrorism etc. these have created a lot of concerns both at the national, regional, and international levels. Based on those mentioned above, this paper examined Political thuggery and insecurity in Nigeria, 2015-2021. The paper utilized Elite theory as its theoretical framework and relied on secondary sources of data from books, journal articles, periodicals, newspapers, working papers and magazines. Data collated were analyzed using content analysis and the findings revealed that; there is a link between political thuggery and insecurity in Nigeria, this is because political thuggery provides a breeding ground...

However, the concept has more of a normative dimension than an empirical interpretation. This makes it difficult to generalize across the various political systems that have adopted a federal system. The primary aim of federalism is to accommodate diversity in a single entity. The challenge however lies in the underlining principle of federalism that will be suitable in resolving salient political issues in these societies. The debate often has resolve around the ideal model of federal arrangement that is suitable across time and space. While there have been diverse perspectives of federalism and its operations, consensus on the ideal model is still lacking. Thus, bringing to the fore arguments that federalism is a means to an end and not an end in itself. Consequently, the issues that necessitate the adoption of federalism should be the emphasis of the principles of federalism and not the adoption of a model that may not adequately capture the peculiarities of those societies. This paper attempts a conceptualisation of the concept and makes a comparison of its practice in United States of America and Nigeria.

This paper examines the relationship between cross-border migration and the spread of infectious diseases: HIV and Tuberculosis in Nigeria and the Benin Republic. This study utilized a secondary method of data collection. Classical migration theory was the theoretical framework on which the study was anchored. Using descriptive statistics and Pearson Correlation Coefficient, as a method of data analysis, the findings revealed that cross-border migration contributed to HIV transmission among women in Nigeria and the Benin Republic; and Tuberculosis incidence in the Benin Republic. This study concludes that cross-border migration plays an essential role in the ...

The way and manner the issue of performance appraisal, reward and Feedback are treated goes a long way to determine the level of employee’s output in the organization. This study examined performance management and employee productivity in Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University. The study employed descriptive survey design method while Vrooms Valence Expectancy theory was adopted as the theoretical framework of analysis, Pearson’s product moment correlation was the analytical tool used . The major findings of the study were that performance appraisal had moderate positive relationship with productivity in Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University. It was also revealed that the reward system has a high significant positive correlation with employee productivity in the institution. The study also found out that feedback has a highly significant positive correlation with em...
