Background: Part of the role of the media is to report any issue affecting the society to the masses. Coronavirus has become an issue of transnational concern.

Abstract:
This study explores how four Nigerian newspapers framed President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration and its human rights campaign. Using newspaper editorials published in The Punch, The Nation, Daily Trust, and Vanguard newspapers of December 2019 as the object of analysis, the paper draws on the methodological context of such framing to investigate how the selected newspapers framed the human rights situation in Nigeria. This study asserts that those newspapers’ editorials used varieties of framing methods, namely: “unrepentant dictator frame”, “resistance frame”, “indifference frame”, “warni

Abstract:
Traditionally, child rearing in Nigeria closely reflects the “spare the rod and spoil the child” maxim and as such spanking, flogging, slapping, beating and evening starving a child as a form of punishment for wrong doing and as a method of behavior modification are common. These are not necessarily considered as maltreatment or abuse of the child. Despite the adoption and implementation of the Child Rights Act in Nigeria, violence against children seems to be on a steady increase.

Abstract:
This study examines the characterisation of issues in the 1999 Yoruba-Hausa inter-ethnic conflict in Sagamu, south-western Nigeria. The occurrence of the1999 Yoruba-Hausa conflict in Sagamu had some historical significance. It was the first inter-ethnic conflict that occurred two months after the enthronement of democracy in Nigeria in 1999. Furthermore, it was the first inter-ethnic conflict between the Yoruba and the Hausa in Sagamu community after many centuries of peaceful co-existence. Therefore, the authors investigate how four major Nigerian national newspapers, National Concord, The Gu

Abstract:
This study examines the frames and tone of media coverage of the anti-open grazing law of Benue State, Nigeria. Two print media – the Punch and Leadership newspapers – as well as two broadcasting channels – Channels TV and the Nigeria Television Authority (TVA) were studied from June 2016 to November 2017. A total of 10 journalists who reported stories on the anti-open grazing law were also interviewed for the study. The result showed that most of the stories cited Benue indigenes as sources. The result also showed the dominance of horror and hope frames while the tone of framing was largely p

How does religion influence health? Responses to this question have shown that religious beliefs could have positive and negative effects on people's health. This paper focuses on religion's influence on how believers perceive and deal with diseases, and it aims to contribute to the debate by considering how COVID-19 was interpreted in Sub-Saharan Africa's Nigeria, which has been regarded as very religious, partly because the majority of her citizens identify as Christians or Muslims. It explores perceptions of COVID-19 in the country using data collected between March and May 2020, from (a) i

Abstract:
The resurgence of the polio virus in Nigeria following vaccine rejections poses a severe threat to the total worldwide eradication of polio. Vaccine refusals are a huge problem in Nigeria, especially in the North, which accounts for about 60 percent of polio cases in 2013. These refusals were informed by claims that polio vaccines contained anti-fertility properties that were designed by the ‘West’ to reduce the Muslim population. These claims and subsequent vaccine rejections culminated in the killing of health workers during an immunisation exercise in February 2013. This study is an analysi

Abstract:
This chapter examines photo manipulation as a non-verbal strategy aimed at framing reality and representing American politicians in three Nigerian tabloids, namely Vanguard, Punch, and Nigeriana. The chapter specifically seeks answers to three research questions: What are some of the photo manipulation techniques used in the three newspapers? How do these techniques affect these newspapers' reports on American politics? And how does photo manipulation help frame specific aspects of American politics? Using structuralism as method of analysis, the chapter argues that Vanguard and Punch newspapers have embraced the tradition of using photomontage, photo collage and photoshopped photos to subtly dramatize news and infuse their articles with features carrying highly connotative meanings. In such photo montages and collages, shots are usually oriented in well calculated manners, or set as in photo serials and cartoons; all these in a bid to convey subliminal/connotative messages about American politicians. Such messages often endorse trivial stereotypes of American politicians.
