    (Journal of Namibian Studies, 2023) Newo Oluwamurewa; Chidozie Felix C.; Durojaiye John; Ezugwu Olileanya
    The emergence of digital media has transformed information sharing and electoral processes, prompting government censorship. This study observes the impact of the 2021 Twitter ban on youth participation in Nigeria's 2023 elections, by placing a spotlight on Lagos. Utilizing quantitative analysis, the research drew on political socialization theory to understand the phenomenon of civic engagement. A structured questionnaire was employed via a cross-sectional survey of 310 respondents and analyzed with descriptive and inferential statistics (Simple Linear Regression, ANOVA). The findings observe the impact of the Twitter ban on youth engagement in the 2023 elections and the work concludes that social media can shift youth participation from digital to physical engagements, it also recommends that social media platforms should be used to stimulate further youth engagement.

    NATURAL RESOURCE GOVERNANCE, ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGE AND HUMAN SECURITY IN NIGERIA
    (Journal of Management & Technology Vol. 24, n. 2,, 2024) Osimen Goddy U.; Chidozie Felix C.; Oladoyin Anthony M.; Chukwudi Celestina E.
    Globally, there have been several discussions about the connection or relationship between environmental change, natural resources, and security. Aside from the detrimental effects it has on livelihood in the majority of the world's current regions, many academics have identified environmental change, or climate change, as one of the primary causes of conflict and insecurity. Thus, this study's main goal is to investigate how natural resources, environmental change, and human security are related in Nigeria's Niger-Delta region. For this study, a qualitative approach to data collecting was used, utilizing journals, books, conference proceedings, and online resources. The study's theoretical foundation was provided by the resource curse hypothesis and the frustration-aggression theory. Content and descriptive analyses were performed on the acquired data. Nonetheless, the analysis showed that natural resource governance, environmental change, and security are all symbolically related. However, some of the advocates in the fight for resource management continued to act avaricious, notwithstanding genuine incidents of carelessness and negligence that initially gave rise to the grievance. Because of the significant effects that inadequate resource governance and environmental problems have on the region's peace and security, it is important to recognize that addressing these challenges is not just vital but also essential. The report suggests that while addressing resource-related conflicts, the government give humanitarian assistance equal weight with upholding the law. The study's policy implications assert that policymakers worldwide can use it to inform how policies are administered.
