The paper examines the animal symbolism in the Hausa Songs of Sa’idu Faru; limiting itself to two songs: Gwabron giwa uban galadima ɗan sambo ginshimi: ganshiƙan amadu na maigandi kai a uban zagi and Koma shirin yaƙi: jan damishin gidan kure shehu. The selection of the songs was due to the occurrences or use of many forms of animal symbolism in them. The analysis has been done on some instances showcasing animal symbolism derived from these songs. Different names of animals have been mentioned in the songs which carry meanings and portray different qualities attributed to human beings to show the innermost intended meaning of the singer. The instances reflect connotative meanings that symbolize power, strength, wisdom, braveness, leadership, tolerance etc, and some other ones which describe laziness, wickedness, fear, stinginess etc. Animal symbolism is an important tool used in many languages to illustrate the power of language in communicative discourse. The instances in the songs of Sa’idu Faru reflect how Hausa poets use their wisdom and poetic ability to manipulate language and ascribe meanings related to animals on human beings based on their physical or mental capacity. Words such as Kura(hyena), Zaki (lion), and Doki (horse) reflect many different intended meanings from the poet in the song. It is evident, that there is a great important symbolic value associated with each animal mentioned in the song.
Gender Parity in Sa’idu Faru’s Song ‘Waƙar Mai Babban Ɗaki
Authors: UMAR Muhammad Arabi , Umar Abdullahi Dahiru
Published: September 2024

This study examines the songs of Sa'idu Faru, a prominent Hausa court singer, to explore their potential for promoting gender parity. Focusing on Faru's compositions for Queen Mother Hajiya Asabe, particularly "Waƙar Mai Babban Ɗaki" (Song of the Queen Mother), the research utilizes Feminist Theory to explore how the song challenges the patriarchal power structure and advocates for gender equality. Through close reading and thematic analysis of the lyrics, the focus is on the Queen Mother's portrayal and how it disrupts traditional gender norms. The paper argues that Faru's songs challenge traditional gender roles by celebrating the Queen Mother's power and authority. By portraying her as a wise leader and philanthropist, Faru subtly subverts expectations of masculinity and proposes an alternative based on respect and collaboration. This analysis highlights the potential of music to promote social change and contribute to a more equitable gender dynamic within Hausa society.
The Role of Nigerian University Libraries in Archiving Hausa Royal Songs for Effective Service Delivery to Researchers
Authors: Furfuri Ibrahim M. M.
Published: September 2024

The need for archiving oral literature in any society cannot be overemphasized. However, in Nigeria, archiving practices for oral literature are still low. The aim of this paper, therefore, is to explore the role of university libraries in enhancing archiving practices for Hausa royal songs for effective service delivery to different researchers and other interest groups. Oral literature in the form of royal songs in the Hausa language plays very significant roles towards preserving history, cultural heritage, language development and other traditional values. However, the emergence of Hausa popular literature songs due to advancements in technology appeared to be a deviation from the traditional Hausa oral songs. Hence, the consequences of not archiving the traditional Hausa oral songs could endanger the historical and linguistic preservation of the language as well as its tangible and intangible cultural heritage. The qualitative approach based on content analysis of different sources of information was adopted for this study. The techniques, opportunities and challenges of print and digital archiving of oral songs were discussed. Furthermore, the role of Nigerian university libraries in archiving Hausa royal songs was highlighted. The libraries can be repositioned to enhance archive management of oral literature for effective service delivery to researchers who may desire access to such resources to satisfy research and other information needs. Key strategies that university libraries could implement to ensure long-term preservation and promote accessibility to Hausa royal songs were also proposed. These strategies include training for print and digital archiving of oral literature. In conclusion, the paper provides some insights that will serve as a guide to university libraries and other organizations, on the necessity of selecting, acquiring and archiving Hausa oral songs for research and studies by present and future generations.
A Pragmastylistic Analysis of Figurative Language Used in Selected Royal Court Songs of Sa’idu Faru
Authors: Masama Sani Garba , Tsafe Bala Dankande , Abdullahi Zubairu
Published: September 2024

From time immemorial, Hausa singers have been displaying their talents and contributing toward enlightening, educating, and informing societies. These among others are the stories of heroes from various institutions who contributed to the development of the society, politically, educationally, religiously, or battles and defense of the particular society those heroes belonged to. Little wonder, many of them (Hausa singers), especially the royal court singers have unique ways of using variety and striking figures of speech to showcase the image of whoever they wish. By so doing, various forms of metaphoric expressions, hyperbole, satire, irony as well as personifications are used for a reward from their client or ridicule to criticize and expose other opponents’ stupidity or vices. Accordingly, this paper aims to explore a few of those figures of speech, drawing relevant examples from the songs of Sarkin Tudun Falale titled Sarkin Tudun Falale Gogarman Magaji Ummaru, and that of Sultan Maccido titled Kana Shire Baban ‘Yanruwa. The two songs were transcribed and translated into the English language for analysis. The paper adopts pragmatics strategies such as Person Targeted Strategy and Idea Targeted Strategy, as well as ‘Style as Individual’ and ‘Style as Choice’ by Gibbons (2003) for its analysis. The paper reveals that Faru is unique in his use of language, as he uses figures of speech to eulogize Muhammadu Maccido and Sarkin Tudun Falale heavily, describing the influence, and their genealogy which is portrayed as eternal, while their rivals as temporal. Furthermore, through his exceptional use of figurative language vilifies and mocks their rivals.
دراسة مقارنة لظاهرة أساليب التشبيه بين الشاعرين المتنبي وسعيد فَارُ

Published: September 2024

This research investigates the employment of simile as a figurative device in the poetry of the renowned Arabic poet Al-Mutanabbi and the celebrated Hausa poet Saidu Faru. By examining shared imagery and stylistic choices across these distinct linguistic and cultural contexts, this study aims to illuminate the universal nature of simile as a poetic tool. Through a comparative analysis of their works, the research explores the underlying principles of simile, its role in evoking emotional responses, and its contribution to poetic expression. The methodology involves a close reading of Al-Mutanabbi's poetry and transcription of Saidu Faru's songs, complemented by secondary sources. Comparative analysis reveals that while both poets extensively utilize similes for vivid imagery and emotional resonance, cultural context significantly influences the choice of comparative elements. Al-Mutanabbi's similes often reference desert landscapes and Arabian horses, while Saidu Faru draws inspiration from nature, agriculture, and local folklore. This study contributes to understanding the power of simile in shaping poetic expression across different cultural and linguistic traditions.
The Moderating Effect of Macroprudential Policies on the Relationship Between the Effectiveness of the Board of Directors in Shaping the Bank's Risk-Taking Behavior
Authors: Fariska Putri , Khaerunisa Alia
Published: September 2024

Macroeconomic instability in 2020 caused by COVID-19 can affect the stability of the country's financial system and trigger risks to banking performance. The implementation of macroprudential policies and the effectiveness of the board of directors as policy implementers can be one of the solutions to this problem. The purpose of this study is to see how the influence of macroprudential policies and the effectiveness of the board of directors in shaping bank risk-taking behavior. The method used is panel data regression method and moderation regression with a sample of 43 banks listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange including banks that consistently published their financial statements for the last five years. The results showed that partially only the effectiveness of the board of directors and company size affected bank risk-taking behavior, while macroprudential policies, macroprudential policies that moderate the effectiveness of the board of directors, and inflation were considered to not affect bank risk-taking behavior, this was due to differences in bank-specific characteristics, the effectiveness of corporate governance, policy implementation in the form of policy easing and tightening, and the interaction between macroprudential policies and monetary policy. However, simultaneously the independent variables and control variables have a significant influence on bank risk-taking behavior.

Hegemonic Party System and Federalism
Authors: Getahun Yohannes Haile
Published: September 2024

The paper inquiries into the fixture of the hegemonic Ethiopian Peoples’ Revolutionary Democratic Party (EPRDF) in the operation of the Ethiopian federal constitutional order. It finds out the federal malfunction of EPRDF. The hegemonic political program of the front, which took the shape of a non-competitive dominant party was not in line with the constitutional diversity of the federal system, as it delinked the constitutional right to self-determination and federal autonomy from the options of multiparty politics. On the structure of EPRDF, equal representation was favorable to the federal politics of diversity accommodation and minority protection. However, the exclusiveness of its structure from the “affiliate” parties had the effects of a narrow-based federal shared-rule, as EPRDF which was the only channel to influence the center. Party-state inseparability was the other gap to the check of power and in establishing the neutrality of the state to deal with ethnic-driven conflict, as a major pathology to the stability of ethnic federal systems. Finally, the power nucleus in the EPRDF created the dominance of TPLF at the perils of diminishing the representative legitimacy and the subordinate position of the “affiliate parties” to EPRDF.
A Life Committed
Authors: Radebe Sbonelo
Published: September 2024

Memoirs are usually one of the best avenues to understand people’s lives. They provide a first-hand account of one’s life from different perspectives. One of the problems with them is that they are expectedly full of biases. It is difficult for a memoirist to criticize herself and reveal everything. Perhaps at first glance, this is what one might expect from a memoir of a person like Essop Pahad (1939-2023). However, it is a marvelous work that offers a reader with great historical accounts of events and life well lived. Pahad served as the Minister in the Presidency from 1999 until 2008 under former President Thabo Mbeki who wrote a foreword to this book, “I am happy to commend this educative tour through many decades of exciting struggles for our liberation and a better world, as contained in this autobiography” (p17). To have served Thabo Mbeki for such a long time and remained his close ally for years is a significant sign that Pahad was a distinguished politician and intellectual in his own right.

The Spiralling of Corporate Corruption and the Plummeting of Corporate Governance and Ethical Leadership in African Institutions
Authors: Matebese Hlalele
Published: September 2024

Generally, several factors around the corporate world influence different nations technologically, socially, economically, and politically. Specifically, this paper focuses on the African continent’s politics concerning corporate corruption, corporate governance, and ethical leadership. This study aims to critically reflect on and evaluate the significance of curbing and combating corruption, promoting governance and ethics in Africa, and furthering and practising those principles. It employed a theoretical, qualitative content analysis approach in which a critical evaluation of relevant in-depth literature review was used and conducted to achieve the study objective. The results of this study revealed that: Incompetent and unethical leaders succumb to corruption, causing Africa's corruption to spiral out of control. Competent and ethical leaders, on the other hand, resist corruption; African leaders and authorities should take steps to fight corruption through ethics and governance; African corporations have become increasingly corrupt; corporate governance and ethical leadership have declined in Africa; African politicians have uncurbed power to advance their private gains, and finally, African leaders need to change their mindsets and cultures to achieve economic growth. This study emphasizes and reiterates the importance of dealing effectively with corporate corruption and advancing governance and ethics to benefit the African population and the continent. It further provides a broad and deeper understanding of corruption, ethics, and governance. The conceptual, strategic model provided by this study may be selected and used by African leaders, authorities, boards of directors, shareholders, and Chief Executive Officers (CEOs), as a tool to address corruption in African organizations and institutions.
Land Question in Post-Apartheid South Africa
Authors: Abdullateef Ibrahim Bidemi
Published: September 2024

Following the end of apartheid regime in 1994, it became clear to the government that a new constitution was urgently needed in order to redistribute and restitute land. After two years of intense deliberations and consultations, a new constitution was finally adopted in 1996.  The new constitution clearly spelt out the fundamental principles of land reform policy. As a result, three-legged land reform strategy was adopted. These are (i) land tenure; (ii) land restitution; and (iii) land redistribution. However, existing scholarship has shown that these land reform programmes have not really addressed the social injustices of the past. Although there has been interesting scholarship on land question in post-apartheid South Africa, most of the previous studies focus on ‘economic compensation’ rather than ‘social justice’. In attempt to fill this gap in scholarship, this paper examines land question within the theoretical prism of social justice theory. The paper analyses the concept of social justice; then, proceeded to the discussions, applications and critiques of Kurt Lewin’s three-model of social change, John Rawls’ theory of social justice and Nancy Frazer’s model of parity of participation to land question in post-apartheid South Africa.

Determining the required number of taxi cars at airports Moscow aviation hub
Authors:   Dolenko D.V. Moroz D.G.
Published: September 2024

The article discusses a simulation model of transport services for passengers at the airports of the Moscow Aviation Hub (MAH), on the basis of which the required number of taxi cars at Sheremetyevo, Domodedovo, Vnukovo airports is determined during the simulated day, depending on the duration of the drivers’ shift on the line. Simulation modeling clearly shows that bringing the duration of a driver’s shift, which until recently amounted to 15...17 hours a day, in accordance with current legislation inevitably leads to an increase in their required number. However, the article proposes a method for organizing the work shift of drivers, as a result of which the working hours of taxi drivers are within the framework of current legislation, and the number of cars increases slightly.

The education sector in Kenya receive the largest share of the country's budget, with a significant portion allocated to paying teachers' salaries, as they constituted a large portion of the employed workforce. This study aimed to assess the effect of saving literacy on investment decisions among public secondary school teachers in Meru County, Kenya. It investigated why teachers in Meru County struggled to invest for their future and explored the role of their financial literacy in contributing to this issue, as indicated in the Solution SACCO annual report for the year 2022. The study was anchored under Financial Literacy Theory. Empirical analysis was conducted based on the study's objectives and conceptual framework. The target population for the study consisted of 1,825 teachers from public secondary schools in Meru County. A descriptive research design was employed, gathering data from primary and secondary sources. Purposive sampling was used to select accessible schools in the nine sub-counties within Meru County, while a simple random sampling technique was applied to select 328 respondents. A self-administered questionnaire was tested on 30 respondents from Tharaka Nithi County, constituting 10% of the sample size, and feedback from the university supervisors was used to address any ambiguities or irrelevant questions. The researcher distributed and collected questionnaires using the drop-and-pick method. After collecting the data from the field, it was reviewed to identify errors such as spelling mistakes and unanswered questions. The data was then coded and entered into the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) for analysis. The findings were presented through tables, and regression analysis, ANOVA tests, and coefficients of determination were conducted to examine correlations and establish the model equation. Descriptive statistics were used to calculate mean values and standard deviations, and Pearson correlation analysis was employed for hypothesis testing. Subsequently, the findings were compiled into summaries, reports, and frequency distribution tables.

Pembangunan kesehatan merupakan bagian yang tidak terpisahkan dari pembangunan nasional. Lingkup terkecil dalam pembangunan kesehatan adalah keluarga. Keluarga yang memiliki kesadaran, kemauan, serta kemampuan berperilaku hidup sehat akan dapat mencapai kondisi kesehatan yang optimal, baik jasmani, rohani, maupun sosial. Taman Baca Sahabat Lentera (TBSL) merupakan salah satu wadah dalam melakukan berbagai kegiatan, diantaranya berlatih mendongeng, membaca buku, dan sharing. Namun sayangnya, belum ada kegiatan yang berfokus pada peningkatan pengetahuan gizi sehingga anak-anak masih memiliki kebiasaan jajan yang tidak sehat serta tidak suka mengonsumsi buah dan sayur. Salah satu solusi yang dilakukan untuk mengatasi permasalahan tersebut adalah edukasi gizi bagi orangtua dan pengenalan konsep gizi seimbang bagi anak dengan media komik “Pahlawan Gizi Seimbang”. Hasil analisis statistik menggunakan uji paired samples t-test menunjukkan terdapat pengaruh yang signifikan dari edukasi gizi terhadap pengetahuan gizi orangtua (p < 0.05). Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa edukasi gizi yang dilakukan cukup berhasil untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan gizi. Secara keseluruhan anak yang terlibat dalam kegiatan edukasi gizi juga mampu menceritakan dengan baik dan benar isi dari komik “Pahlawan Gizi Seimbang”. Pengenalan konsep yang sudah diberikan ini diharapkan mampu meningkatkan pengetahuan anak terkait gizi seimbang, dan kemudian dapat tercermin dari sikap mereka di kemudian hari dalam pemilihan makanan sehari-hari.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat dinamika Job Insecurity terhadap Work Engagement pada karyawan yang bekerja  pada perusahaan retail di Batam selama masa Pandemi Covid-19. Desain penelitian yang digunakan adalah analitik dengan pendekatan cross sectional, Sampel adalah karyawan salah satu perusahaan retail yang diambil dengan Teknik Sampel Total Sampling sebanyak 80 karyawan. Alat ukur yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah Job Insecurity Scale by Ashford et al dengan 59 aitem, dan Work Engagement diukur melalui Utrecht Work Engagement Scale dengan 17 aitem, dengan analisis data menggunakan teknik SPSS Product Moment. Dalam penelitian ini diperoleh nilai Sig. - 0,242 < 0,05 dengan nilai F hitung 0,861 > F tabel 3,960 sehingga dapat disimpulkan bahwa Job Insecurity memiliki korelasi yang berbanding terbalik terhadap Work Engagement. Artinya, semakin karyawan memiliki Job Insecurity rendah justru akan meningkatkan Work Engagement, sebaliknya jika karyawan memiliki Job Insecurity yang tinggi, akan menurunkan Work Engagement. Studi ini merekomendasikan bahwa perasan aman (secure) karyawan terhadap pekerjaan perlu dijaga oleh perusahaan, karena terbukti meningkatkan keterlibatan mereka terhadap tugas-tugasnya, meskipun mereka bekerja dalam situasi pandemi Covid-19. Dalam kasus ini, juga sudah didukung dengan kebijakan dan keberpihakan perusahaan pada karyawan untuk menerapkan protokol kesehatan dan tetap memperhatikan kesejahteraan karyawan berupa penerimaan upah secara utuh

Pandemi Covid-19 telah memberikan dampak yang luar biasa bagi kehidupan masyarakat dunia. Oleh karena itu, masalah ini perlu diperhatikan agar dapat segera ditangani untuk membantu mencegah penyebaran Covid-19. Kesadaran masyarakat akan pentingnya mematuhi protokol kesehatan masih sangat minim, hal inilah yang kemudian menjadi penyebab utama penularan virus Covid-19. Sosialisasi Penerapan 3M dan Pencegahan Covid-19 merupakan kegiatan mengedukasi masyarakat dengan gerakan 3M (cuci tangan, pakai masker, dan jaga jarak). Sosialisasi ini dilakukan di TPQ Bazma An - Naafi' yang terletak di Desa Kebon Pala, Jakarta Timur. Kondisi kesehatan di lingkungan ini cukup mengkhawatirkan, karena minimnya lahan terbuka hijau, udara bersih, dan fasilitas air bersih. Anak-anak di sini juga terlihat seperti tidak tahu bahaya apa yang mereka hadapi, sehingga tidak ada larangan dari orang tua. Banyak warga yang tidak mematuhi aturan protokol kesehatan seperti 3M.
