The purpose of this paper is to examine the role of information managers and libraries in accomplishing Nigeria's sustainable development goals in the 21st Century. The paper explored the notion of sustainable development, examines the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) including their respective targets. It identifies and discusses the role of libraries and information managers (librarians) in achieving SDGs, as well as the philosophy of information theory of communication as proposed by Claude Shannon (1948). Libraries all over the world offer a variety of products and services that support the accomplishment of all 17 SDGs. Libraries are secure, friendly spaces at the heart of communities, fostering reading and providing free access to information. Libraries are vital instruments in society, and they play a critical role in accomplishing long-term development goals. Citizens must be well informed if Nigeria's sustainable development goals are to be met and sustained. This can be accomplished by selecting, processing, organizing, and disseminating information based on the parameter of development as indicated in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and organizing training programs or forums where issues such education, environmental, climate change, gender inequality and health issues can be discussed, and so on.

This editorial reviews the potential short- and long-term macroeconomic impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic according to the data announced in Jordan, Provides evidence of certain of these impacts in the coming days, and the economic repercussions. Since Jordanian economic growth was slow before the Covid-19 outbreaks, the economic contraction could be serious, and the government intervention would necessitate a cautious weighing of priorities and goals. Given that resources are limited, strategies that better handle the short-run crisis while yielding substantial long-run gains should be seriously considered. The economic effects of the COVID-19 have been highlighted in this study and emphasized policy options to reduce its effects. The study comes to the conclusion that monetary, macroprudential, and fiscal policy can help mitigate the effects of the COVID-19.

The temporal variability of rainfall in Quirino Province was analyzed through the use of rainfall data of seven (7) rain gauges within the neighboring provinces like Nueva Vizcaya and Aurora. The length of record analyzed from 1997 to 2016. In this study, rainfall frequency analysis and consistency of rainfall data from the different stations through the use of double mass curve analysis was performed and analyzed. The annual series was used to screen each station’s annual rainfall data while the province’s average Thiessen rainfall was screened using maximum period series process. It was found out that all the data of the seven (7) rainfall stations were consistent. To attain allowable error in estimation of 10%, 5% and 1% for the mean annual rainfall the number of rain gauge station needed in the province should be 18, 72 and 1799, respectively.

Apparently, throughout human history, pollution and the economy appear to have been inextricably linked. However, the relationship between environmental harm and economic development is complex, and disciplinary biases have splintered our understanding of it. This study applies Johansen cointegration which indicate that there exists a long-term relationship between air pollutants and economic growth. Multiple regression model indicates that there is a significant relationship between air pollution variables and the economic growth. The vector autoregressive model (Var) indicates a short run relationship between the variables. Then, Vector error correction model was fitted and the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) is supported. More so, the EKC shows that economic growth has both positive and negative significant impact on air pollution. Meanwhile, Granger causality test shows that economic growth has causal effect on air pollution. This indicates that Jordan has reduced CO2 emissions along with other pollutants and thereby contributed to environmental improvement in the country.

This research focuses on Natural Resource Depletion in Sub-Saharan Africa, as well as ways to overcome it, with a particular focus on the role of transparency in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). The transparency initiative is a global initiative aimed at eradicating corruption, ensuring accountability, and assisting participating countries in developing quality budgets that will ensure a good standard of living for their citizens now and in the future. Hausman test was applied and a fixed panel regression model was specified which reveals that there is a significant relationship between GDP per capita, inflation, the EITI dummy, and the transparency indicator is established using a panel regression model. The results show that the model fits the data well and can be used to forecast future economic growth in SSA countries that participate in the EITI scheme. The fixed-effect model also shows that the Transparency indicators such as voice and accountability, and corruption have a positive significant impact on the economic growth of the 10 SSA countries under consideration, indicating that transparency is a critical factor in determining good economic performance. Meanwhile, diagnostic tests such as normality test was performed, with satisfactory results, indicating that the model is very robust and reliable. Meanwhile, inflation have positive significant impact while natural resources show a negative significant influence on the economic growth of all the 10 Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) in the EITI scheme which can be attributed to the natural economic depletion. Then, using correlation analysis, it was discovered that there is a strong link between transparency indicators (voice and accountability, corruption as well as quality of budget, and fiscal management) and economic growth. This suggests that the greater the transparency, the more natural resource constraints will be overcome, and SSA countries participating in the EITI scheme will achieve greater economic performance.

Energy is a very important and key factor for developing countries like China, India, and Pakistan have a growth rate of population is very high. In today's changing world scenario of Petroleum price high, that increasing the gap between demand and supply of energy in the World. Energy shortage is a test case for governments due to the high demand for energy due to rising commercial need, consumption, and industrialization. Current economic and energy crisis scenarios force me to work on those issues. An objective of the study is to test the long-run connection between energy consumption and economic progress from 1971 to 2021. This study adopts the Unit Root Test for stationary, Cointegrating equation and Vector Error Correction used for short-run/long-run relationship; Granger Causality test used for find-out the causal association, and Ordinary least square to examine the impact between energy sources and economic progress. The study result shows Oil, Gas and Electricity are equally important short run/long run, while the Coal log-run is more than in the short-run. The energy consumption to economic growth has a unidirectional causality, indicating energy is a factor that affects country growth. Regression results also confirm that energy significance on top for economic growth, Energy Sources; Gas and Electricity were useful but energy source Oil getting more attention in past decades. Currently, high-cost sources of energy, i.e. up Oil prices, this study suggest the alternate energy source nuclear, wind and solar to ensure low-cost energy generation to economic growth.

The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate how forensic accounting may be used to predict the financial performance and growth of MTN mobile communication in Nigeria in the future. To emphasize the importance of fraud reporting, fraud prevention, and litigation as forensic accounting instruments, it is necessary to address the issue of financial performance growth in every consistent manner for any company in Nigeria to avoid a collapse in financial performance. The ordinary least square (OLS) regression model was used in this paper, and the results show that the model is statistically significant, indicating that there is a significant relationship between forensic accounting instruments and growth in financial performance. According to the coefficient of determination (R-squared), forensic accounting indicators can explain approximately 73 per cent of the variation in financial performance growth. This indicates that the fitted model is adequate for predicting the growth of financial performance in the future. A long-term relationship exists between forensic accounting and the financial performance growth of MTN mobile communication in Nigeria, according to the results of the Johansen cointegration test, which was conducted recently. Furthermore, if fraud is not controlled, it has the potential to devastate the financial performance of telecommunication companies. The regression analysis conducted for this paper reveals that the number of fraud cases reported and the rate of fraud prevention, both of which are forensic accounting indicators, are statistically significant and have a positive significant impact on financial performance growth. Therefore, MTN and other telecommunication companies must put in place a policy within their respective organizations that will continuously fund the cost of forensic accounting so that they can maintain a sustainable level of financial performance growth.
