These electoral disputes are due to claims made by the then President, Donald Trump. Though the supreme court dismissed the claims of electoral fraud, the impact has left the American citizens more polarised at the national, state, and congressional levels. Scholars have argued that electoral fraud has existed since modern democratic development in the mid and late 19th century and is still occasionally an issue in some well-established democracies, while other scholars are not in support of such claims. Compared to the 2019 elections conducted in Nigeria, reports of electoral frauds have been on the front burner right from 1999. Its impact had made citizens have voters apathy and no trust in the democratic system in Nigeria. This paper used the qualitative research method to analyse the United States 2020 election cases of electoral fraud in an advanced democracy and diagnosed Nigeria’s 2019 and the United States 2020 elections. First, the study looked at the issues and challenges that have affected elections in both countries. Second, the paper used Game theory and the Conspiracy theory to assess the impact of a more proximate determinant of Election Day fraud; it examines Nigeria’s strategic efforts to combat electoral fraud using card reader technology. Finally, the paper concluded that there is no basis for comparison regarding elections in Nigeria and United States despite the hitches observed by the world in the United States elections. Electoral fraud will be inevitable regardless of how democratic a country claims to be if certain democratic tenets are not in place.","PeriodicalId":405920,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Global Social Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131183892","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Education is fundamental to the construction of a knowledge economy and society in all nations. It provides the needed manpower for the overall turn- around of a nation. In Nigeria, the educational system is bedevilled by poor funding characterized by incessant strikes, closures of schools and decay in infrastructure. This study examines the issue of government playing a dominant role in financing public schools vis-a-vis the quality of education in Nigeria. The fundamental questioned that is posed is, in a nation where educational policies, infrastructure, personnel and programs are provided mainly by the government, can education develop beyond what the government can provide? Using a descriptive approach, the study, which relies on secondary data and adopts the systems theory as its frame of the analysis found out that government funding of the educational sector has eroded the quality of education in Nigeria. Based on this, it recommends a funding strategy where Non-Governmental Organizations will complement government efforts to fund education in the country.","PeriodicalId":405920,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Global Social Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130351668","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study is an evaluation of effect of teachers' factor on students' performance in final examinations in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), a case study of Secondary Schools in Abuja Municipal Area Council to determine teachers' influence on students. The Literature review provided a framework for the study and focused on effect of teachers on students' performance in areas of teacher characteristics related to teacher effectiveness and student's evaluation of instructional effectiveness in order to ensure proper understanding of the topic.

Nigerian journalists have been thrown into the towel on several occasions in the struggle to uphold press freedom as some were brutalised, molested, suppressed, bribed, or even intimidated with impunity while carrying out their democratic roles. The agitation not only for press freedom, the degree of independence that put the fourth estate of the realm on uninfluenced reportorial vantage but also a clear separation of media agenda power from politics of bankrolling beeps a light of redemption through social media rendition. Contents of mainstream and social media (Facebook, Twitter & YouTube) in the case of Fani-Kayode versus Charles were subjected to empirical analysis to test media efforts towards self-actualisation from political insubordinations. The data show that social media reign a significant influence on the salvage of press freedom taking “Who bankrolls your tour of states” tussle as a significant variable to compare the agenda and framing patterns the case under study enjoyed on social and mainstream media. The study found out that the media agenda might that recouped the press freedom from political intimidation and disparagement in the case under study was more than 90% social media strength. The mainstream media and their journalists got the inspiration for their belated actions from the battle already won through the social media agenda.","PeriodicalId":405920,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Global Social Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116747294","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper argues that changes were made to the Right to Buy scheme from 1980 to 2016 in order to increase the attractiveness of the policy. The study was conducted using a non-positivist approach to research. The findings of this study revealed that that the UK government’s decision to reduce the residency requirement from 3 years to 2 years in the RTB scheme in 1984 and to increase the percentage of discounts in the scheme constitutes a first-order policy change as described by Hall. On the other hand, the introduction of the new Right to Acquire in the RTB policy by the Labor party in 1997 constitutes a second-order change. While abolishing the RTB policy in Scotland by the Scottish National Party in July 2016 constitutes a third-order change. Furthermore, the results of this paper showed that the shared core beliefs in the virtues of private ownership between the Conservative party and the “New Labour” that came to power in 1997 in the UK can better be understood through the lens of Sabatier’s ACF.","PeriodicalId":405920,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Global Social Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132219570","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
