Dynamics of population, urban agglomeration, and economic growths in Sub‐Saharan Africa
This study analyses population, urban agglomeration (UAG), and economic growths dynamics in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) using the World Bank panel data ranging from 1970 to 2019. The study utilized a panel fixed effect (FE) model after verifying the suitability of the model using a Hausman test. The estimation result from the panel FE model reveals remarkable findings which conform to some extent, the theoretical a priori expectations. The result sh…
Neonatal deaths and challenges of public health
Neonatal death is child health problem which the global community seeks to reduce to the barest minimum by 2030. In 2017, sub-Sahara Africa's average neonatal death was 27 in every 1000 successful births, while Nigeria's neonatal death rate was 32.9. The researcher's objective is to propose public health policies needed to reduce neonatal death drastically in Nigeria by 2030. The researchers sourced data from World Bank between 1993 and 2015, and…
