A Review of Complimentary Theoretical Lens: Managing Supply Chain of Material Drugs in Sub-Saharan Africa
The study examines supply chain coordination of the distribution of Artemisinin-based Combination Therapies (ACTs)intended for the treatment of malaria in Africa. Uganda, like most countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, lacks effective coordination structures to facilitate the delivery of ACTs. Thus, the researchers attempt to explain supply chain coordination using the activity domain, resource dependency, and coordination theories. This study builds upon previous studies that have used complexity theory and transaction cost economies perspectives to inform supply chain coordination. The article answers the following questions: What theories can be used to understand supply chain coordination in Sub-Saharan Africa? What opportunities does this case of coordination of medicines in Uganda contribute towards understanding supply chain coordination? What methods are appropriate for supply chain coordination studies? This study adopts post-modernism philosophical orientation. It is based on how medicines are distributed from National Medical Stores to the end users. Analysis of the case of coordinating medicines in Uganda demonstrates that a multi-theoretical approach namely, the activity domain, resource dependency and coordination theories all together can be used for understanding supply chain coordination

Case analysis: Process & Industrial Development (P&ID) vs. The Federal Republic of Nigeria (2023)
Abstract
This article discusses the case between Process and Industrial Development Limited vs. The Federal Republic of Nigeria (2023). Arbitration is relatively new to Nigeria and arguably Africa as a whole. Nigerian Judges and the populace are considered inexperienced and may barely have sufficient knowledge on Arbitration. It is also difficult to find lawyers that are grounded in Arbitration. Hence, arbitration cases are not often decided in Nigeria. It is often said that “Nigeria does not have a fighting chance.” This means that when it comes to Arbitration, Nigeria simply does not have the resources and manpower to handle and decide cases using Arbitration. This is so because the cases that would require the use of Arbitration are mostly cases bordering on International and foreign Investment, International Trade and so on. And in recent times, Nigeria has not been involved in international transactions of such nature. Nigeria has had limited exports and foreign direct investment in the country hence the legal system has not had the opportunity to acquire such expertise. This can be said to be one of the causes of the country\u27s lack of experience in Arbitration. This paper shall discuss the facts of the case above, the breach of Contract and the Arbitration award of the Arbitral Tribunal as well as the final decision of the English Commercial Court in London. Most importantly, this paper will argue some of the challenges of Arbitration and make recommendations that would be essential to Arbitration proceedings and Arbitrators
