I have also discovered that the more Nigerians incessantly call the word “corruption” the more it increases and waxes stronger. Corruption has multiplier effects. Therefore instead of attributing all societal misfortune to this asocial act it will be more beneficiary if we devote our research prowess on how to ameliorate it to the barest minimum if not total eradication because it is an asocial act which need not to live with social beings. Hence, many scholars across disciplines have unveiled different approaches on how to fight corruption in Nigeria and beyond. Some political scholars, social analysts and commentators have advoca

Ten Reasons Why the Study of Psychology is Important in Teacher Education Programme Introduction According to Onah (2015:12), education psychology is an integral part of psychology which seeks to find how positive relationship/interaction can be established between the teacher, students and the learning process.  Educational psychology is the branch of psychology concerned with the scientific study of human learning. The study of learning processes, from both cognitive and behavioral perspectives, allows researchers to understand individual differences in intelligence, cognitive development, affect, motivation, self-regulation, and self-concept, as well as their role in learning. Onah (2015:12) further noted that “the knowledge and skills acquired from educational psychology will guide and direct in resolving the enormous problems confronting both the teachers and students in classroom. Johann Herbart (1776–1841) is considered the father of educational psychology. He believed th

Human Rights First, rights refer to the moral or legal entitlement over something. Human rights are rights inherent in all human beings by virtue of being human. Everybody is entitled to enjoy them regardless of race, sex, nationality, ethnicity, language, religion, or status. Human rights can also be explained as privilege to be enjoyed by human beings. Such rights include right to life, freedom of speech, freedom of movement, freedom from slavery, freedom of religion, right to education, right to personal liberty, freedom from torture, and many more. Everyone is entitled to these rights, without discrimination. Furthermore, Heywood (2007:326), seem to have summarized what human rights entail when he rightly observed thus: "Human rights are rights to which people are entitled by virtue of being human; they are a modern and secular version of natural rights. Human rights are ‘universal’ in the sense that they belong to all humans rather than to members of any particular state,

The breakthrough experience of Asia Tiger States (Hong Kong, Taiwan, South Korea and Singapore) in their education sector development hitherto from previous colonial legacy The breakthrough experience of Asia Tiger States (Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan, and South Korea) in their education sector development hitherto from previous colonial legacy Introduction The story of Asian Tiger states’ (Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan and South Korea) economic success cannot be separated from their outstanding educational policies over times and which have been documented in countless articles and books. At one point, academics, economists, and international observers began referring to the city-state’s economic achievements, especially during the 1970s and 1980s, as a “miracle”. The ‘Four Asian Tigers’ rose to prominence in the boom years of the 1960s by taking advantage of emerging technology and globalization, and they have held onto their position as economic leaders ever since (Gaw, 2016). Ac

Ethnicity and Ideology Ethnic politics only flourishes in the absence of political ideology. Ideology does not know ethnic or religious boundary insofar one held the same belief with others whether he/she is from North, South, East or West does not matter. The unity of many African countries is still under question due to lack of political ideology among many countries which would have positively unit or divide them based on important national issues. This absence of political ideology paves ways to different ethnic hegemonic groups or blocs to emerge with the intent to devour a collective happiness of the people. Let us use Nigeria as a case study on how ideology can truly unite or divide people and eradicate ethnicism and its tensions. The unity of Nigeria is still questionable unless she finds another thing that will divide Nigerians apart from ethnicity and religious belief.  This is because human beings by nature ought to be divided in order to unite and sometimes to make life

            1953 Kano Riot      Kano riot was a political crisis mainly between northerners and southerners in ancient city of Kano in May 1953. The nature of the riot was clashes between Northerners who were opposed to self-government and Southerners made up of the Yorubas and the Igbos under the aegis of the Action Group (AG) and the National Council of Nigeria and the Cameroon (NCNC) who supported self-government for Nigeria in 1956. The political riot lasted for four days.  Many lives were lost and many persons were wounded. The Causes of 1953 Kano Riot The immediate cause of the crisis was the motion of self-government moved in the Federal House of Representatives by a member of Action Group (AG) Chief Anthony Enahoro in 1953 on the need for Nigeria to attain self-government in 1956 from British imperial masters. The Northern representatives under the aegis of the Northern People's Congress (NPC) did not accept the motion on the ground that the north will not be ready f

The Financial Dwindling of Traditional Taxi Service Providers and the Need to Regulate E-hailing Service: A Case Study of Uber Technologies Inc. Regulation Abstract Conventionally, fares or commuters always hail empty taxis on streets for commercial services especially during rush hours. There is no doubt that these empty cabs offer needed services although their services may be lacking in terms of comfort, time coverage and efficiency. Therefore, there are noticeable lapses in their services which have necessitated the emergency of electronically or mobile application based service providers which are common known as Transportation Network Company (TNC). TNC is often referred as e-hailing or ride-hailing service. It is an online based company that matches passengers with drivers through websites and mobile applications. In other words, it is a turning point in tech-revolution in transportation sector today across globe. The E-hailing business involves the use of social networks, sma

Nigerian Political Parties and the Party Manifestos Nigerian political parties only parade documents they called manifestos during electioneering campaign which they often than not deny its contents immediately they secure victory. One wonders where they got the manifestos since they have no iota of political ideology. A political party that has manifesto without ideology should not be trusted because it is a mere political gimmick and trick. A Party cannot have practicable and implementable manifesto without ideology because it is ideology that gives cue to party manifesto. Party ideology which is the constitutional gene of political parties is the engine room that generates party manifesto. Party manifesto is just a subset of party ideology. It is only a political ideology that distinguishes one party from another and determines their manifestos. As we have stated, a party without an ideology is a virus to the state. Nnoli, (2003:182) enunciates the role of ideology in politics as t
