Item Economic Restrictions and Currency Performance: Evidence of African Countries(Research Square, 2021) Adegboye Alex; Ikpefan Ochei; Ojeka Stephen A.; Adeyanju IbukunoluwaThis study explores the impact of diverse economic restrictions on currency performance. We assess a panel dataset of 30 African countries for the period 1990–2010. Our empirical evidence is based on the fixed effect regression and the Quantile regression approach. We find that the United States, European Union, economic and intensity sanctions weaken the real exchange rates. However, we establish that the U.N. sanctions are insignificant. As for the policy implication, sanctioned countries should implement a policy that could mitigate the adverse consequences of economic restrictions on currency performance.Item Educational quality, social media and public accountability: a global perspective(2021) Adegboye Alex; Asongu Simplice A.; Tchamyou Vanessa S.; Osinubi Tolulope T.; Adeyanju IbukunoluwaThis inquiry relates to the empirical linkages between educational quality, Facebook penetration and accountability dynamics. The empirical investigation is based on the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) technique and Quantile regression for the conditional linkages which articulate low, middle, and high initial levels of public accountability. It explores a cross-section of 168 countries. The main finding is that there is an overwhelming positive connection between Facebook penetration and accountability dynamics. The established positive nexus is apparent in all quantiles of public accountability. In addition, tertiary and secondary school enrollment positively influence public accountability. By utilizing a novel dataset in analyzing the established nexuses, this study adds to the existing literature on social media and governance (i.e., educational quality, Facebook penetration and accountability dynamics). Similarly, the posture addresses contemporary policy concerns regarding a lack of documentation on the impacts of social media.
