An Analysis of Kunle Afolayan’s October First, Using François Truffaut’s Auteur Theory
Get PDFAuteurism is a concept that originated from the French film criticism of the late 1940s, and it is the belief or proposition that upholds and projects the director as the author of film or filmic media production. Auteur theory has come to exemplify the prowess, expertise and technical competence of any director. Relying on Kunle Afolayan’s historical depiction movie, October First, this article takes a cursory look at the auteuristic elements of this popular film which is a cinematic reenactment of key events that occurred shortly before and during Niigerias independence on First October, 1960. This article uses Afolayans October First to demonstrate the professional capabilities, cinematographic techniques and productorial initiatives of the film director as the auteur (author) of film. It concludes that from cast and crew, cinematic lighting, costume, suspense and humour, to production design and storyline rendition; the productorial imprimatur of Kunle Afoloayans auteurism clearly stand him out in his works, most especially the one under review, October First

Réseaux sociaux et prostitution des adolescentes à Abidjan
Get PDFL’objectif de cette recherche est d’analyser les raisons de l’usage des réseaux sociaux dans la pratique de l’activité prostitutionnelle. Ce travail analyse dans le cadre d’Abidjan, les raisons du déplacement de la prostitution de rue vers le virtuel. Cette étude révèle des manifestations et des variables explicatives. Les manifestations s’articulent autour des méthodes et des stratégies adoptées par les prostituées sur les réseaux sociaux. Les facteurs explicatifs de la prostitution via les réseaux sociaux ont mis en exergue l’anonymat que procure cet instrument et qui permet aux utilisateurs de pouvoir mener une double vie. Sa capacité à dématérialiser les frontières favorise l’établissement de « ponts » entre les individus de tout horizon. Ils se présentent aussi comme un espace de fabrique et de circulation d’informations et de sollicitations de toute sorte. Ces facteurs expliquent le recours à cet outil dans l’activité de la prostitution par les adolescentes
The Effect of Entrepreneurship Skills Among Female Students and Reduction of Unemployment in Nigeria: A Study of Federal Polytechnic Ilaro, Entrepreneurship Development Centre
Get PDFNigeria’s ability to thrive is greatly hindered by the rate of increase in the level of unemployment, especially among graduates. However, entrepreneurship is crucial role for economic development and creation of employment opportunities. This paper examined the effect of entrepreneurship skills among female students and the reduction of unemployment in Nigeria. The study employed a survey research approach. The target population comprised female students that were enrolled in the institution’s entrepreneurship programs. A convenience sampling method was used to pick 150 participants, given the unlimited nature of the population. A significant number of participants emphasized the significance of training, innovation, and the enhancement of skills for the sustainability and expansion of enterprises in the present economic conditions of Nigeria. The results revealed a significant positive relationship (correlation coefficient of -0.862) between reducing unemployment and fostering creativity, suggesting that higher levels of creativity lead to lower rates of unemployment. Furthermore, a strong negative association (with a correlation coefficient of -0.851) was found between unemployment and entrepreneurial skills. This indicates that higher levels of entrepreneurial skills lead to a significant decrease in unemployment. The report also indicated that 76.4% of the growth of new enterprises may be ascribed to successful training. The study recommended that the educational curriculum should be revised to stress the acquisition of practical skills above solely theoretical information starting from high school and beyond and make it a priority to foster the growth of innovative and successful persons to enhance their employability, therefore encouraging self-reliance and long-term viability
Risk evaluation of university contract management based on rough set
Get PDFThe internal control system of university has initially taken shape. Contract control runs through the daily management of universities, so the effectiveness of contract control affecting the operation of internal control system has become an important concern of managers and a research hotpot of all social circles. This paper finds that the current research mainly focused on the evaluation of internal control, but the research concerning the effectiveness of contract management is insufficient. And this article establishes the evaluation index system of contract control effectiveness from the organizational and business levels, and evaluates the contract control level of different universities based on rough set, which has achieved good results in weight allocation because of its advantages in processing fuzzy information and revealing potential laws
On Three Special Types of Subjects in the Punishment for Breach of Trust
Get PDFThe Provisions of the Supreme People’s Court on Issuing the Information on the List of Dishonest Judgment Debtors specify that the primary target of punishment for dishonesty should be the dishonest judgment debtors. However, in practice, the scope of punishment has broadened to include their children and four types of responsible persons. This study conducts a thorough analysis and recommends that the punishment of the judgment debtors’ children be explicitly prohibited. It also advocates for strict adherence to legal conditions when imposing consumption restriction measures on the four types of responsible persons. Furthermore, in cases where a government body is listed as a dishonest judgment debtor, this paper argues for the strict enforcement of accountability for both the agency and its responsible persons, aiming to establish a robust mechanism for penalizing governmental defaulters.
The Institution of the Tax on Great Fortunes and the Taxation of Profits and Dividends: Vectors of Tax Progressivity in Brazil
Get PDFThis research aims to analyze two tax strategies, potentially capable of contributing to the principle of progressivity and contributory capacity. Middle-class citizens in Brazil must bear a high-income tax burden, while profits and dividends are not taxed and there is still no tax on large fortunes. Therefore, the research has academic relevance in addressing the reasons why there is no tax on large fortunes and the technical parameters necessary for this to become a reality. Furthermore, taxation is the means by which the individual provides revenue to the State, as well as a matter of interest to all taxpayers and the community. The study will be carried out using a deductive approach, with a qualitative nature and exploratory bibliographical research. This study will seek different alternatives and mechanisms to Income Tax, aiming to achieve a balance that benefits both the taxpayer and the State
On The Transcendence of Marx’s Humanized View of Nature Over Non-anthropocentrism Ontology of Wild Nature
Get PDFThe ecological culture of non-anthropocentrism which is reflected in the concept of “wild nature” in its philosophical ontology hopes to solve ecological and environmental problems through “the absence of people”. The original intention of establishing the ontology of “wild nature” was to save people from the deteriorating ecological environment, but in the end, it fell into a logical dilemma of destroying people. However, the starting point and ultimate purpose of solving ecological and environmental problems should be based on “real people” and “real society”. Based on the historical materialist position, Marx’s humanized view of nature not only advocates the necessity of the naturalization of humans and the practicality of humanization of nature, but also provides scientific guidance for getting out of the ontological dilemma of“wild nature” in the ecological culture of non-anthropocentrism

This article analyzes this issue from the perspective of human resource management practice and proposes corresponding solutions
Religious Influence of Boko-Haram and Governance Challenges in Handling Internal Displaced Citizens in Nigeria
Get PDFThe prevalence of religious sacrilege is attributed to a lack of comprehension regarding the inherent separation between religion and government. This study explores the intricate relationship between the religious influence of Boko Haram, a notorious extremist group in Nigeria. This study examined the influence of Boko-Haram and governance in the management of internally displaced persons in the Northeast region, specifically Borno and Yobe in Nigeria. Methodologically, content and narrative analysis are used to analyse the study objective. Conflict Management theory is adopted for the underpinning of the study. The findings suggest that religious individuals and groups have disrupted the established societal roles and norms of citizens, thereby undermining the legitimacy of constitutional principles. Hence, the study concludes that religious actors and followers have desecrated constitutional legitimacy, consequently affecting citizens. Therefore, governance has been confronted with administrative fiasco in its handling of the affected citizens in the study area
