The Government

This paper examines the nature, impact, effectiveness and barriers of e-government in the Federal Government of Nigeria. It also explores the extent to which e-government has facilitated a better relationship between citizens and the federal government of Nigeria. It argues that the utilization of technologies such as internet, email, websites, and social media have yet to effectively connect citizens, and the government. As a result, the federal government of Nigeria has not fully adopted the new e-government approaches to improve its services. The paper uses data derived from questionnaire survey administered to 3,000 Nigerian citizens including federal government staff in Abuja, Lagos and some state capitals in Nigeria., Interviews of 300 federal officials and stakeholders were conducted. The secondary data consisted of the review of related government reports, government websites, academic and professional journals. Data were analyzed to determine the impacts of e-governance in the federal government. The conceptual framework is based on stakeholders’ theory, and an integrated e-government model. The findings suggest that on one hand there is a negative correlation between the e-governance initiatives and federal government efficient service delivery in Nigeria. On the other hand, there is also a negative correlation between citizens and federal government relations in the country. Some challenges preventing the adoption of proactive e-governance practices were identified and recommendations for appropriate policies that could address the current impediments were offered.

The Government

This research aims at understanding how ICT as panopticon vision enable transparency, accountability, and Participation in Indonesia. The betterment of these three aspects is believed to be beneficial for the government in fighting corruption. In the transparency aspect, this research has eight indicators which are constructed from studies by Bhatmagar, Davies & Fumega, Park & Florida, Grimmelikhuijsen, Keuffer & Mabillard:  (1) the availability of laws and regulations, (2) the availability of government budget allocations and spending, (3) the availability  of  performance  reports, (4)  open  government  processes,  (5)  identification  of elected officials and civil servants under investigation for corruption and fraudulent activities, (6) disclosure of assets and investments of public officials, (7) provision of e-procurement, and (8) using file formats. In the accountability aspect, four indicators from studies of Lee & Kwak and Davies & Fumega are used. They are (1) the availability of social media presence, (2) using mainstream social media for interactive, on-going conversations, storytelling, and communications, (3) the availability of a platform for questions and answers, and (4) the availability of information about feedback from the public. Finally, for the aspect of Participation, three indicators by Lee & Kwak are employed. Those are (1) voting and polling for a decision-making process or a public organization assessment, (2) feedback and ideation platform, and (3) crowdsourcing to report corruption or grievances. This research uses a qualitative research approach. It is benefiting from the use of secondary data as a form of the big data source. Hence, this research is an initial attempt to exploit the availability of big data as a valid data source. To ensure the secondary data sources’ validity, the researchers employed a triangulation process of backgrounds and reference checking. The data analysis in this research is based on 2 ICT based initiatives; Government websites and apps. It is evident from this research finding that, first, there are 35 ICT based initiatives, 31 websites, and four apps. From these numbers, there are  only18 websites and four apps that are available. Second, in general, those websites and apps do enable transparency, accountability, and Participation. Another important highlight of the finding is that three unidentified websites and ten websites are unsuccessful in promoting those three aspects. However, most of the websites and apps had turned out a success. In the meanwhile, ICT as panopticon vision also results in new corruption opportunities. This study highlights three examples of new corruption opportunities. It is recommended that Indonesia continue to work on those ten unavailable websites and, more importantly, be cautious and aware of the new corruption modes. Only by doing those, the role of ICT to fight corruption can be more strengthened.

Freedom of expression suffered a major setback in Nigeria when the federal government placed an indefinite suspension on twitter in the country, much to the displeasure and criticism of many from within and without. Even though Nigerians found an alternative means of accessing the social media application through the use of virtual private networks (VPN), the rippling effect of the ban from the social, political and economic viewpoint leaves much to be desired. After a prolonged tussle between the Nigerian government and the American based company which lasted over 100 days, the government finally agreed to have the ban lifted. This study through the use of secondary data investigates the emerging and contending issues surrounding the suspension. Findings reveal that the entire fiasco was quite avoidable had either of the parties not attempt to test waters.

Do So

The phenomenon of migration has been recorded to be a part of human history. Over the years, scholars have averred that people migrate for different reasons. While some do so for economic reasons and in search of greener pastures, others do so to escape either the wrath of the society in which they live or the government owing to their actions and way of life. This phenomenon is not restricted according to gender and age, as both males and females, old and young, are involved. Of late, it has been discovered that there is a huge desire among youths, including those who have jobs, to exit the country, thereby leading to a massive emigration of youths out of Nigeria. Although it is an undeniable fact that the economy of the country is in shambles, which leads to a desire to search for greener pastures elsewhere, the trend in the youths’ desire and rush to leave Nigeria transcends this sole reason. Given the revelations by migrant returnees, it has been discovered that social media platforms play a pivotal role in both stirring and dampening this desire. Utilising a secondary data analysis in addition to a systematic literature review, this study explored the contribution of social media, especially Facebook, to the desperation shown by Nigerian youth for out-migration and how various social media platforms can be used for economic benefit in order to dissuade the youth from doing so. The study recommends that Nigerian youths should realise that the essence of social media meant to foster human interaction and healthy communication is gradually turning into an abode of misinformation that has embedded youths’ lives within the discourse of youth out-migration in Nigeria, as anecdotal evidence as well as empirical evidence has shown. The study informs policy, society, practice and theory within the discourse of youth out-migration and social media studies.

This second article, “NDP Negotiations on Patriation”, deals with many of the same participants who were involved in the October negotiations. The failure of the government of Saskatchewan to agree with the federal government on its patriation project meant that the federal NDP was split on the issue. On one side, the federal NDP, together with some of the provincial sections, supported the federal government initiative. On the other side, the NDP government of Saskatchewan, and some other provincial sections, were in opposition.

Abstract The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has become a super institution with extraordinary restraint. With the new Corruption Eradication Commission Law, some people think that the KPK has been weakened, which has been an institution loved by the public, even though the government denies that the new KPK Law has not weakened the KPK at all. One of the new things is the formation of the KPK Supervisory Body, one of which has the authority to grant permission to the KPK to conduct searches, which in fact has an impact on the problems at hand. The method used is a normative legal research method. The approach used is a statutory approach. The data used are secondary data obtained by literature study and primary data obtained by conducting interviews with related party respondents. There has been a shift in the meaning of Barriers to Justice as stated in Article 221 of the Criminal Code with Article 221 of the Corruption Eradication Law where Article 221 of the Criminal Code views Obstruction of Justice as a material offense while for Article 21 of the Corruption Eradication Law, Judicial Obstruction is seen as a formal offense. On the other hand, the actions of the Supervisory Board in granting licenses for searches, confiscation, etc. are not automatically considered a disturbance of justice unless it can be proven that the elements of wrongdoing committed by the Supervisory Board can be proven.   Keywords : Corruption, Authority, Obstruction Of Justice.   ABSTRAK Komisi Pemberantasan Korupsi (KPK) telah menjadi lembaga super dengan pengekangan yang luar biasa. Dengan adanya Undang-Undang KPK yang baru, sebagian orang menilai telah terjadi pelemahan KPK yang selama ini menjadi institusi yang dicintai masyarakat, padahal pemerintah membantah bahwa Undang-Undang KPK yang baru sama sekali tidak melemahkan KPK. Salah satu hal baru yaitu adalah pembentukan Badan Pengawas KPK yang salah satunya memiliki kewenangan untuk memberikan izin kepada KPK untuk melakukan penggeledahan, yang ternyata berdampak pada permasalahan yang sedang dihadapi. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode penelitian hukum normatif. Pendekatan yang digunakan adalah pendekatan statutori. Data yang digunakan adalah data sekunder yang diperoleh dengan studi pustaka dan data primer diperoleh dengan melakukan wawancara dengan responden pihak terkait. Telah terjadi pergeseran makna Hambatan Keadilan sebagaimana tertuang dalam Pasal 221 KUHP dengan Pasal 221 Undang-Undang Pemberantasan Korupsi dimana Pasal 221 KUHP memandang Obstruksi Keadilan sebagai delik material sedangkan untuk Pasal 21 Undang-Undang Pemberantasan Korupsi, Obstruksi Peradilan dipandang sebagai delik formal. Di sisi lain, tindakan Dewan Pengawas dalam pemberian izin penggeledahan, penyitaan, dan lain-lain tidak serta merta dianggap sebagai gangguan keadilan kecuali dapat dibuktikan bahwa unsur-unsur perbuatan salah yang dilakukan Dewan Pengawas dapat dibuktikan. Kata Kunci: Korupsi, Otoritas, Obstruksi Keadilan.
