However, the implementation of OGD initiatives faces several challenges, including infrastructure limitations, data quality and availability issues, data privacy and security concerns, and the lack of clear legal and policy frameworks. Addressing these challenges requires significant investments in technological infrastructure, data management practices, capacity building, and policy reform. Despite the challenges, OGD initiatives present numerous opportunities for driving positive change and fostering socio-economic development in East Africa.

After a period of nearly two decades where democratic governance seemed to prevail, the resurgence of military interventions is disconcerting for citizens across the region. This trend is particularly troubling as it has the potential to spread from one country to another. Recent events in West Africa have seen a concerning number of military coups, including those in Chad, Mali, Sudan, Guinea-Bissau, Guinea, Burkina-Faso, and Niger. Reports from Burkina-Faso indicate that the military has managed to prevent a counter-coup, highlighting the complexity and rapid succession of these events. The escalation and frequency of coups in West Africa are cause for concern, prompting a deeper examination of this resurgence. This study, titled \"Resurgence of Coups in Africa: An Evaluation of West Africa,\" aims to address this phenomenon through two research questions and corresponding objectives. Drawing on elite and system theories, the study utilizes a quantitative design and employs content analysis for data interpretation. Findings suggest that the resurgence of military coups in West Africa can be attributed, at least in part, to a lack of democratic values and norms. To address this issue, the study recommends the institutionalization of democratic principles and the delivery of tangible benefits of democracy to the populace. By fostering a political environment grounded in democratic governance and ensuring that citizens experience the dividends of democracy, the study suggests that the likelihood of military interventions in West African politics can be mitigated.

The study therefore, concluded that there are various factors responsible for political apathy in the 2023 general election in Enugu state and government interference contributed to political apathy during the 2023 general elections in Enugu State. The researcher recommended that state governments should ensure to leave up to the promises of good governance made to the people. All factors that lead to political apathy must be checkmated. Enforceable legislations against election rigging, violence, thuggery, godfatherism and the like should be put into practice. Good governance will ensure, justice, fairness, equity and inclusion for all. All federal government agencies charged with voter education like National Orientation Agency (NOA), INEC, and Ministry of Information should sustain political education at all levels of the society. Political apathy is not the solution to electoral problems rather it endangers the electoral system more.

Ethical challenges are pervasive in journalism, both globally and in Nigeria, requiring journalists to navigate complex decisions regarding their behavior and their interactions with various stakeholders. This study examines ethical issues in journalism practice and the challenges faced by journalists. It suggests that addressing the challenges stemming from media ownership requires greater press freedom.

However, as the digital landscape continues to evolve rapidly, further investigation is essential. Present studies often rely on self-reported data on adolescent media usage, limited to singular time points, thereby hindering definitive conclusions on whether media use directly influences mental health outcomes or vice versa.
