ETHNOMUSICOLOGICAL STUDY OF NÀÌJÍRÍÀ DÌDE AS A MEDIUM FOR NATIONAL UNITY AND IDENTITY
type: item
description: This paper presents a multidisciplinary musicological analysis of Nàìjíríà Dìde (Nigeria Arise), a choral composition originally written in 1983 by the prominent Nigerian composer,Mr Sunday Akinfolarin Makinde. Drawing on ethnomusicology, cultural history and the study of political theology, the paper examines how this musical piece encodes Nigerian post-independence nationalism, the sonic and structural features of West African choral music, and a theology of collective moral accountability. Through sonic and lyrical analysis, the paper demonstrates how Makinde blends indigenous Yoruba harmonic practices and rhythmic vitalities with Western classical choral traditions.The lyrical analysis situates the composition within the turbulent socio political climate of Nigeria's Second Republic in the early 1980s, which was a period marked by economic transition, democratic precarity, and intense debates over national identity. The study argues that Naijiria Dide functions not merely as a patriotic anthem but as a structured artistic argument for civic responsibility, spiritual humility and communal solidarity. The paper concludes by drawing attention to the enduring role of formal choral composition and collective singing as active agents in the ongoing project of postcolonial African nation building, social critique, and cultural preservation.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND FRENCH EDUCATION: OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES IN TEACHING FRENCH AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE (FLE)
type: item
description: Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become one of the most significant technological innovations of the twenty-first century, transforming various sectors of society, including education. In language education, AI has introduced new possibilities for personalized learning, adaptive instruction, intelligent tutoring systems, and automated assessment. This article examines the role of artificial intelligence in French as a Foreign Language (FLE) education. Drawing on documentary research and qualitative analysis of existing literature, the study explores how AI contributes to language acquisition, learner autonomy, pedagogical innovation, and classroom effectiveness. The article incorporates perspectives from both international and African scholars to provide a comprehensive understanding of AI in language education. Findings reveal that AI enhances French language learning through personalized instruction, immediate feedback, conversational practice, and flexible access to learning resources. However, challenges such as inadequate teacher training, digital inequality, ethical concerns, data privacy issues, and infrastructural limitations remain significant. The study concludes that AI should serve as a complementary tool that supports teachers rather than replacing them. It recommends increased professional development for educators, investment in digital infrastructure, and the development of inclusive policies to ensure equitable access to AI-enhanced learning environments.

ADOPTION OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TOOLS AMONG FRENCH LANGUAGE TEACHERS: AN EMPIRICAL STUDY
type: item
description: This paper investigates the adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools among French language lecturers in Nigerian Colleges of Education, focusing on perceived barriers, institutional support, and integration practices. Using a descriptive survey design, data were collected from 85 lecturers through structured questionnaires. The paper employed descriptive statistics, including frequencies, percentages, and mean scores for the response analyze. Findings reveal that poor internet connectivity, lack of AI-specific training and unstable electricity supply constitute the primary barriers to the adoption. Institutional support is moderate with ICT laboratories and administrative encouragement being the most available resources, while provision of digital devices and formal policy guidelines remain inadequate. The study concludes that while there is growing awareness and interest in AI integration, sustainable adoption is limited by infrastructural and capacity constraints. Recommendations include enhancing institutional support, providing regular AI-focused training, and developing clear policy frameworks to promote effective integration of AI in language teaching.

description: Sheikh Ahmad Al-Maqri is a prominent Nigerian poet who was born in the city of Zaria, Kaduna State, Nigeria. His poems demonstrate a varied and skillful use of Arabic derivatives, such as active participles, passive participles, intensive forms, and adjectival forms resembling participles. These derivatives contribute significant linguistic and expressive depth to his poetry, reflecting his mastery of the Arabic language and his artistic ability to employ it effectively. This study aims to investigate and trace these derivatives in selected poems of Sheikh Ahmad Al Maqri and to analyze them from a grammatical perspective. The researchers adopted the descriptive-analytical method in conducting the study. The findings revealed that the poet employed these derivatives extensively in many of the verses examined in this research. The researchers further recommend conducting additional studies on the poet and his literary productions, both in poetry and prose.

FUNCTIONAL SCHOOL LIBRARIES AS PANACEA TO PROBLEMS OF BASIC EDUCATION FOR NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT
type: item
description: School libraries are libraries found in pre-primary, primary and secondary schools which supposed to support the basic education providing adequate educational resources and standard facilities in assisting pupils in learning and provide teachers with adequate reference service delivery are now ill-prepared for and limited awareness among stakeholders about the value of library service. This paper discusses how beneficial school libraries can address the challenges faced by basic education. It situates the research within the context of deteriorating library infrastructure, a lack of adequate learning materials, a poor reading culture, and limited access to information resources, all of which hinder the achievement of educational objectives. Drawing from the Information Literacy and Resource-Based View Theory, the paper argues that access to a diverse range of information resources and the ability to utilize them effectively are essential for academic success and lifelong learning. This paper establishes a strong link between functional school libraries and improved educational results through a qualitative examination of literature, policy documents, and empirical data. The findings indicate that well-funded and effectively managed school libraries enhance student academic achievement, critical thinking skills, and literacy development. However, problems such as inadequate integration of ICT, financial restrictions, inadequate staffing, and unfortunate implementation of policies have continue to hinder school library effectiveness and efficiency. The paper concludes that well-resourced school libraries are vital for achieving equitable and high-quality basic education. It recommends key approaches for improving library services, including ongoing funding, professional staffing, effective policy implementation, ICT integration, and fostering a culture of reading. In general, strengthening school libraries is crucial for improving educational outcomes and contributin…

PREPAREDNESS AND ADAPTATION OF LIBRARIANS IN THE COLLEGE OF EDUCATION LIBRARIES IN SOUTHWEST NIGERIA WITH THE 5TH INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION
type: item
description: This study investigated the preparedness and adaptability of librarians in colleges of education within the context of the 5th Industrial Revolution. The research was driven by the growing use of technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), FRID systems, and smart devices that are transforming routine and library information service delivery. The researchers employed a descriptive survey research design and sampled librarians from various colleges of education using a two-stage sampling technique. Three institutions were selected: Federal College of Education, Abeokuta, Ogun State (29 respondents); Federal College of Education (Special), Oyo (53 respondents); and Federal College of Education (Technical), Akoka, Lagos State (18 respondents). The study included all 100 librarians and senior library staff due to the manageable population size. Data were analyzed and interpreted using SPSS version 24, with results presented in terms of simple percentages, means, standard deviations, and correlations.

type: item
description: This study aimed at providing people with the benefits derivable from investing in Cooperative Societies in any community we find ourselves.

ADMINISTRATION AS INSTRUMENT FOR EFFECTIVE QUALITY ASSURANCE PROCESS IN HIGHER INSTITUTIONS IN NIGERIA
type: item
description: Quality assurance is a fundamental aspect of higher education, ensuring that academic institutions maintain high standards in teaching, research, and administration. In Nigerian higher institutions, effective administration serves as a critical instrument for implementing quality assurance processes, encompassing policy formulation, resource management, curriculum development, and institutional monitoring. This study explores the role of administration in enhancing quality assurance in Nigerian universities, polytechnics, and colleges of education. It examines the existing regulatory frameworks, including the National Universities Commission (NUC), National Board for Technical Education (NBTE), and National Commission for Colleges of Education (NCCE), which oversee academic standards and accreditation processes. Despite the presence of these quality assurance mechanisms, challenges such as inadequate funding, administrative inefficiencies, corruption, and poor infrastructure hinder their full implementation. The study highlights the need for stronger institutional leadership, transparency, and the integration of digital tools to enhance quality assurance processes. Recommendations include increased government investment in education, stricter enforcement of accreditation standards, and continuous faculty development programs to improve teaching and research quality. Ultimately, the effectiveness of quality assurance in Nigerian higher institutions depends on proactive administrative leadership, adherence to best practices, and continuous assessment mechanisms. Strengthening administrative frameworks and fostering a culture of accountability will enhance educational quality, promote graduate employability, and improve Nigeria’s standing in the global higher education landscape.

EFFECT OF ENTREPRENEURSHIP EDUCATION ON EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE OF BUSINESS EDUCATION STUDENTS IN COLLEGES OF EDUCATION IN SOUTHWEST NIGERIA
type: item
description: This study investigates the impact of entrepreneurship education on the emotional intelligence (EI) of Business Education students in Colleges of Education in Southwest Nigeria, considering the moderating role of students' level of study. Employing a quasi-experimental research design of pre-test post-test non-equivalent control group type, the study involved 293 students selected through multi-stage sampling. The experimental group received a four-week entrepreneurship education intervention focusing on business plan development, simulations, and guest lectures, while the control group continued regular coursework. EI was measured using a validated instrument assessing self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills. Data analysis using ANCOVA revealed a significant positive effect of entrepreneurship education on EI (F(1, 291) = 313.327, p < .000). The level of study also significantly impacted EI (F(1, 291) = 5.151, p < .000), with final-year students exhibiting the highest EI levels. However, no significant interaction effect was found between entrepreneurship education and level of study (F(2, 290) = 1.146, p > .05). The study concludes that entrepreneurship education enhances EI consistently across all levels of study, while the level of study itself influences EI development. Recommendations include integrating entrepreneurship education across all levels, prioritizing experiential learning, and offering specialized EI development programs for final-year students.

SHUTTLE DIPLOMACYAND SOCIO-ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IN NIGERIA
type: item
description: Over one and a half decade uninterrupted military regimes up till 1999 had Nigeria’s image in shambles. This development had great impact on Nigeria’s socio-economic standing. Given the democratic transition in 1999, the immediate democratic government of President Obasanjo and subsequent regimes were faced with the responsibility of initiating policies that would revamp Nigeria’s image and foster socio-economic development. Shuttle diplomacy was a viable tool adopted by these administrations to help rescue the situation. However, despite the vast time and resources invested in shuttle diplomacy, Nigeria is still deficient in socio-economic development. The general objective of this paper is to examine the impact of shuttle diplomacy on Socio-economic development in Nigeria between 1999 and 2019. Using the historical method and comparative method of content analysis from primary and secondary sources, the paper examined how the regimes of Presidents- Olusegun Obasanjo, Musa Yar’Adua, Goodluck Jonathan and Muhammadu Buhari adopted shuttle diplomacy to foster socio-economic developments in Nigeria. Through a structured evaluation of their shuttle diplomacy endeavors, this study discovered the frequency and intensity of shuttle diplomacy under each regime. However, the paper concluded that shuttle diplomacy plays a vital role in Nigeria’s socio-economic development given that no country can sit back at home arms folded with high expectations from the international community. However, to avoid wastage of resources and achieve maximal results for socio-economic development in Nigeria, this paper recommends that shuttle diplomacy should be more organized, planned, targeted and goal oriented.

APPRAISAL OF SOCIAL STUDIES EDUCATION FOR CULTURAL SHARING AND TRANSFORMATION TOWARDS VALUE RE-ORIENTATION IN NIGERIA
type: item
description: As a nation characterized by a rich tapestry of ethnic diversity, Nigeria faces challenges related to cultural identity, social cohesion, and moral values, particularly among the youth. Social Studies education serves as a vital instrument for fostering cultural sharing and facilitating transformation towards value re-orientation in Nigeria. As a country characterized by its rich diversity, the integration of various cultural perspectives within the Social Studies curriculum promotes mutual understanding, respect, and appreciation among students from different ethnic backgrounds. By engaging with diverse cultural narratives, students are not only able to connect with their heritage but also learn to value the cultures of others, thereby promoting social cohesion. Through the promotion of core values such as tolerance, civic responsibility, and social justice, Social Studies education plays a significant role in value re-orientation. By preparing students to become informed and active citizens, it cultivates a generation that is equipped to contribute positively to societal development and address pressing social issues. As Nigeria continues to navigate the complexities of cultural identity and societal challenges, the importance of an effective and comprehensive Social Studies curriculum cannot be overstated. It is imperative for policymakers and educators to prioritize the enhancement of Social Studies education as a means to foster cultural understanding and value re-orientation, ultimately contributing to a more harmonious and progressive society. It was therefore recommended that Social Studies curriculum should be revised to include more diverse cultural content that reflects Nigeria's ethnic plurality. This enhancement should incorporate local histories, traditions, and contemporary societal issues to foster a deeper understanding of cultural diversity among students.

INVESTIGATING THE EFFECT OF RESILIENCE-FOCUSED COUNSELLING ON ADOLESCENTS' ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE AND EMOTIONALWELLNESS
type: item
description: Adolescence is a very important phase in individual life, characterized by tremendous challenges in some academic, emotional, and social contexts. Challenges faced by adolescents in Nigeria, among others, are academic performance, socioeconomic limitations, and less availability of mental health resources. This study assessed the effects of resilience-based counselling on the academic performance and emotional well-being of adolescents, providing a prospective intervention approach. Adopting a quasi-experimental approach, 200 Nigerian secondary school students were involved, further categorized into an experimental group that received resilience-based counselling for eight weeks and a control group that did not. The intervention incorporated skills like cognitive behavioural therapy, stress management, and mindfulness training to enhance resilience. Resilience-focused counselling produced a statistically significant influence, improving emotional well-being across ARES-i25, better stress management, enhanced self-confidence, and growing problem-solving skills, as shown by the baseline evaluations. ANCOVA results further confirmed that experimental children fared statistically better with their performance than the control groups (F = 151.504, p < .05), thereby validating resilience-based interventions in promoting academic success. The research concludes with the recommendation that resilience-based counselling offers a much-needed scope in improving academic achievement and emotional stability in Nigerian adolescents, and so structured resilience-training programmes should form the basis of school curricula to promote better coping and general well-being in students.
