Needs for Restructuring the Health Sector Financing in Nigeria: An Exploratory Comparative Study

Popoola Oladayo Timothy

Evidence reveals that health outcomes of all nations have improved dramatically globally during the 21st century; however, enormous disparities still exist between Nigeria and other developing countries. For instance, Nigeria has the third highest infant mortality rate in the world after India and Pakistan; while in every single day, Nigeria loses an estimated of 2,300 under-five year olds children which also makes her the second largest contributor to under-five mortality rates worldwide after Republic of Chad. Therefore, this study present exploratory comparative analysis on health sector financing across countries in Africa with emphasize on Nigeria. The trend analysis of the study reveals that the direction of governments’ priorities and commitments in terms of health spending and resources devoted to health sectors have led to the glaring disparities in health indicators (life expectancy, infant and under-five mortality rates) with Nigeria lagging behind. The findings of the study further suggest that Nigeria needs to strengthen efforts towards improving health status of her citizens through restructuring her health sector.

Ngomah Madgil Don Stenay Junior, Zhang Youtang, Ngomah Le Temps Décide Amour Prestige and Thierry Belinga

This research uses elasticity analysis to evaluate the impact of pricing innovation on the commercial performance of telecommunication industry Companies in Congo Brazzaville. As a first step, this study develops a refined analysis grid of product innovations according to their content, their "localization" in the company's offer or organization, and the degree of impact they introduce. It has been found that the innovation of telecommunications companies is based on the complicity product price. An innovation products and prices on the market, causing the increase of subscribers, and causing a buying behavior calling them to a high degree of consumption. This triggers an increase in production, therefore increase in sales or the financial indicator, thus encouraging growth on the income rates profitable to businesses. That is why this work has identified the determinants of innovation produced within the telecommunications companies in Congo Brazzaville. This is based on a joint investigation carried out mainly by 4 companies, notably MTN, AIRTEL, WARID and AZUR, which we found more productive and representative in terms of innovation factors and performance indicators. The quantitative data was collected from 2009 to 2016 through the Regulatory Agency of Telecommunication in Congo, convenience sampling was then employed to select four (4) companies.

Determinants of Participation of Micro and Small Enterprises in Microfinance in Kenya

Forah Obebo, Nelson Wawire and Joseph Muniu

Microfinance development is one of the avenues that can potentially promote performance of Micro and Small Enterprises (MSEs) especially in developing nations. Despite the development, MSEs continue to suffer from high levels of financial exclusion as well as low participation in microfinance. In the period 2011-2016, at least 2.2 million businesses closed largely due to financial exclusion and shortage of operating funds. In addition, only about 25% of the firms used microfinance credit in the year 2015. This level of usage is considered low in light of the microfinance developments that have taken place in the last decade. Therefore, an understanding of factors that affect participation of MSEs in microfinance is necessary for designing policies and products towards promoting greater participation in microfinance. This is because MSEs are key contributors of income and employment to the economy. Studies on determinants of participation have tended to focus on the household and not MSEs. This study drew data from the 2016 FINACCESS data set and estimated the determinants using a probit model. The results revealed that, age of firm owner, tertiary education level, financial literacy level, numeracy level, ownership of radio, possession of business permit and age of firm are some of the key determinants of participation in microfinance. It is therefore suggested that government and microfinance providers should encourage and upscale financial literacy programmes so as to influence greater participation in microfinance. In addition, the government should create incentives that will increase acquisition of permits and licences by MSEs.

Why do Management Theories Fail? Reasons and Solutions: A Perspective of African Context

Akpor-Robaro MOM

The paper is a discourse of why management theories fail, particularly in the African environment, and how to make them work in the context of Africa. The paper notes that most of the management theories are foreign to African environment and are inappropriate to African situations. It posits that a major reason management theories fail in Africa, particularly, is because they are applied indiscriminately without being circumstance/environment contingent. It therefore recommends that to make theories work in Africa, management theories must be indigenized, but beyond that, such indigenous theories must be circumstance contingent and managers must use them in a circumstance contingent way. The high points of the paper are that it brings to bear the arguments in the contingency theory of management and the relevance of the theory in management in Africa in contemporary times.
