Analysis of socio-economic spending and human capital development nexus in Nigeria
This study examines the impact of Economic and Social Sector Expenditures on Human Capital Development in Nigeria from 1981 to 2018. The Autoregressive Distributive Lag Model was applied in the analysis. The results reveal that the lagged values of government economic expenditure, student - teachefr ratio, external aid and per capita income impact significantly and positively on current level of development in human capital, while, government soc…
Foreign direct investment ‐firm productivity nexus in West Africa
As recorded widely in the extant literature, foreign‐invested firms with superior technology and managerial skills are likely to generate productivity spillovers that may be beneficial to local firms. We examine firm level productivity spillovers in the West African context. Four countries were sampled on the basis that they share institutional and similarities as British colonies and social economic similarities as West African countries. The Le…
Are Wealthy Countries Always Healthy? Health Outcomes and Public Health Spending Nexus in Nigeria
Nigeria is the most populous country in Africa and the eight most populous nation in the world. She is currently the largest economy in Africa. Nigeria is considered to be relatively wealthy in terms of oil reserves; however, the level of poverty is still very high because of corruption and mismanagement. This study investigates the impact of public health expenditure on health outcomes in Nigeria, 1985-2019. Empirical results from the Classical …
Are anticompetitive behaviours rampant in global retail energy markets? A study of price elasticity, asymmetric price adjustment and rent-seeking
Analysis of Poverty Correlates and Multi‐Dimensionality in South East Nigeria
Using data from the Generalized Households’ Survey (GHS), this article analyzed the incidence of multi‐dimensional poverty and its determinants in South East Nigeria. Adopting the Alkire‐Foster methodology and the logit model, the study found that the significant predictors of poverty and deprivation across dimensions include income (less than minimum wage), education, and consumption. The result showed that based on per capita consumption expend…
Regional integration and growth
This study provides a pioneer analysis of the growth effect of WAEMU integration at the econometric level, unlike the extant literature that relied on descriptive analysis of the sub-region’s trade statistics. The study used robust instrumental variables system GMM regression in the framework of a cross-country growth model and annual panel data for the period 2000 to 2015. Contrary to the widely held view that regional economic integration foste…
