Effect of Fuel Subsidy Removal on the Job Performance of Lecturers in Tertiary Institutions in Rivers State

The already hardship experienced due to poor salary and hyperinflation caused by fuel subsidy removal motivated this study, “Effect of fuel subsidy removal on the job performance of lecturers in tertiary institutions in Rivers state.” Two specific objectives, research questions and three null hypotheses guided the study. A descriptive survey research design was adopted. From the population of 78 lecturers, census survey sampling was adopted. A four-point response options questionnaire was used for data collection, and it was validated by three experts. The reliability of the instrument was established using Cronbach’s alpha which yielded alpha coefficients of 0.81 and 0.82. Mean was used to answer the two research questions, while one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and t-test were used to test the null hypotheses at a 0.05 level of significance. Findings revealed that the extent of the negative effect of fuel subsidy removal on research and publications, class attendance, invigilation and supervisory functions of lecturers was at a high level. It was concluded that the government did not do enough to mitigate the sufferings of lecturers before, during and after fuel subsidy removal via reviewing of salary upwards with the economic practicality. Among other things, it was recommended that the federal and state governments should review lecturers’ salaries upward in accordance with the inflation and hyperinflation rates in Nigeria to enable lecturers to meet their family, research, publications and other duties. Parts of the funds from the fuel subsidy removal should be used for that purpose.

Bridging gender disparities in the teaching profession in tertiary institutions for globalisation

Globally, female teachers have established careers in teaching. In Nigeria, there are more females in the teaching profession at lower levels of education than at tertiary institutions. This study examined the gender distribution rate of teachers in secondary and tertiary institutions and the factors that caused differences in gender balance at tertiary institutions using mixed method research. A proforma form was used to collect quantitative secondary data, while the interview guide was used to collect qualitative data. Descriptive statistics of frequency and percentage were used to analyse the quantitative data collected to establish the rate of male and female teachers. The qualitative data were analysed thematically with the aid of Atlas ti. The results showed that the rate of female teachers outweighed their male counterparts by 4.35% at secondary schools, while male lecturers outnumbered female lecturers by 54.67% at the tertiary level. Lack of ambition to aspire higher, as well as societal perspective and marriage, among others, were factors responsible for the low rate of female lecturers in tertiary institutions. In order to address the gender gapidentified at tertiary institutions for globalisation, educational policy makers were advised to ensure that tertiary institutions increase the percentage of women in their academic recruitment.

Low Utilisation of Online Research Resources by Lecturers: Causes and Remedies

Research findings are vital to a country's progress; hence, conducting research is essential. Numerous online research resources (ORRs) are available to assist with the research process in the twenty-first century. Apps and websites that researchers can utilise to aid their research are known as online research resources. Online research resources have been known to affect the research process positively. Nevertheless, researchers in developing countries seem not to be using them. This paper explored the reasons for not using them and how to correct the errors. The population of this study comprised lecturers in tertiary institutions in three states in Nigeria. The sample consisted of 54 lecturers (48% female and 52% male). The study used a semi-structured interview technique to gather the data, which was analysed using the thematic technique. The findings indicated that the causes of low utilisation of online research resources included an inadequate demonstration of the needed skills, awareness, interest, and willingness to embrace new technologies. Others are that online research resources were not included in tertiary institutions curriculum and poor mentoring process. In addition, poor internet services, poor sensitisation, irregular electricity supply, and few experts in that area were other reasons. The remedies identified by the respondents include workshops, seminars, and training that institutions and academic associations should carry out. Creating more awareness, personal development, and productive mentorship should be addressed by academia. Others were that the online research resources should be included in the curriculum of tertiary institutions and WIFI services should be provided in all tertiary institutions. If these remedies are implemented, there will likely be an increase in the utilisation of online research resources during the research process. This study's findings have implications for Nigeria and other developing countries. Replication of this study in other developing countries will improve the validity of our findings.
