Decentralization and Public Service Delivery in Uganda Local Governments: An Exploratory Study of Service Improvement, Access, and Quality in the Mount Elgon Region.
type: item
description: This paper studies how decentralization affects public service delivery in Ugandan local governments. It looks at the Mount Elgon region. The main research problem explores the connection between decentralization and better access to public services. It also looks at service quality and delivery. The study uses two research methods. It combines qualitative data from detailed interviews with quantitative data from surveys. These data show how stakeholders view service outcomes. Findings show that decentralization can improve service delivery. It increases local responsiveness and accountability. Large challenges still exist regarding fair access and quality. This is true for healthcare services. Stakeholders reported better service responsiveness and citizen engagement. Gaps in access for marginalized groups still exist. These gaps raise concerns about how inclusive decentralized systems are. This research shows why we must fit decentralization policies to the healthcare sector. It calls for tailored strategies that focus on work speed and fairness. The results of this study apply outside the Mount Elgon region. They offer facts for policymakers and workers who manage decentralization across sub-Saharan Africa. This work adds to the discussion on public service delivery. It points out the need to check and change decentralization plans often. This helps meet the different needs of local people.

The Decadal Conditions of Thunderstorm Occurrences in Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, Nigeria
type: item
description: This study evaluates the impact of thunderstorm on flight operations at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja Nigeria from 1991-2020. This study focused on decadal conditions of thunderstorm occurrences trend and its influence on flight operations. This research employed secondary data of thunderstorm occurrences from Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NIMET), and flight operations data from Nigerian Airspace Management Agency (NAMA) both at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja. The Second Decadal Trend of Thunderstorms from 2001-2010 show a positive slope (2.703) suggests an increasing trend in thunderstorm occurrence the increasing trend in thunderstorm activity is more pronounced in this decade as indicated compare to the first decade. The Third Decadal Trend of Thunderstorm occurrences from (2011-2020) show a negative slope (-2.7818) suggests a decreasing trend, which is lower compared to the second decade, however, the decreasing trend in thunderstorm occurrences continues. The results showed that there is a relationship between the three decades of thunderstorm occurrences at 95% confidence level, although the relationship is not statistically significant (p>0.05). Therefore, flight operations could possibly be more affected by human, economic and mechanical factors. Emanating from the study, recommendations and suggestions were made. Future studies should integrate additional data variables such as wind speed, rainfall, and other climatic parameters.

ORGANISATIONAL CULTURES AND WORKPLACE MOTIVATION: A CASE OF LA-SHALOM HOTEL IN MBALE CITY, UGANDA.
type: item
description: This research aims to look into how various organisational cultures and workplace motivation strategies at La-shalom Hotel in Mbale City affect employee productivity and business growth. The main problem being tackled is that there is little understanding of the cultural and motivational factors that truly improve performance in this hospitality setting. Therefore, both qualitative and quantitative data on employee views, motivation levels, and productivity results are needed. This research article looks at how organisational cultures and workplace motivation policies affect employee productivity and business growth at La-shalom Hotel in Mbale City. It works to fill a gap in understanding the specific cultural and motivational elements that boost performance in the hospitality sector. Using both qualitative and quantitative methods, the research shows that a supportive organisational culture is closely linked to higher employee engagement and productivity. It also finds that effective motivation strategies, like recognition programmes and chances for professional development, enhance these benefits. The main findings show that employees who view their workplace as inclusive and motivating tend to be more satisfied with their jobs and more productive, leading to better operational efficiency and business growth. The importance of these findings goes beyond the hospitality industry, indicating that customised organisational cultures and motivation policies can act as key factors for improving employee performance in other sectors, such as healthcare, where staff motivation has a direct effect on service quality and organisational success. By clarifying how culture, motivation, and productivity interact, this study adds to academic discussions and offers useful insights for managers wanting to enhance workforce efficiency and promote growth in their organisations.

THE IMPACT OF EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION AND ORGANIZATIONAL PERFORMANCE: A CASE OF BUTEBO DISTRICT, UGANDA.
type: item
description: Employee motivation plays a critical role in shaping organisational performance, particularly in the public sector, where resource constraints and workforce challenges often affect service delivery. This paper looks at how employee motivation affects organisational performance in the healthcare sector of Butebo District, Uganda. It emphasises the important link between motivational strategies and the results of performance. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study gathers both qualitative and quantitative data from employee satisfaction surveys, performance appraisals, and management interviews to explain the existing motivational practices and their effects on productivity. The main findings show a strong positive connection between effective motivational strategies—like recognition programmes and opportunities for professional development—and improved employee performance indicators, such as job satisfaction and commitment to the organisation. Conversely, well-structured motivation strategies, including competitive remuneration, professional development opportunities, and recognition programmes, significantly enhance employee morale and performance. These findings highlight the importance of guiding healthcare managers on effective motivation methods, leading to better patient care and service delivery. By demonstrating the clear connection between employee motivation and organisational performance, this study provides useful knowledge for healthcare management. Additionally, the broader implications suggest that tailored motivational strategies can improve employee morale and significantly enhance the overall effectiveness of healthcare services, ultimately benefiting the community in Butebo District. The study recommends implementing effective motivation policies to improve service delivery and organisational efficiency in Butebo District. These insights contribute to the broader discourse on public sector motivation, providing a foundation for policy adjustmen…

STATE INTERVENTIONISM POLICY AND POVERTY REDUCTION IN NORTH-CENTRAL NIGERIA.
type: item
description: This study investigates the impact of state interventionism through the N-Power program in North-Central Nigeria from 2016 to 2023, addressing poverty and human development challenges in a region marked by high poverty rates (38.9% nationally, World Bank, 2024). In North-Central Nigeria, programs like N-Power aim to enhance education, healthcare, and economic opportunities, yet their efficacy is questioned amid ethnic conflicts and federalism complexities (Adebayo, 2022). The problem lies in under-explored legal frameworks, unclear impacts on human development indices, and socio-political barriers like patronage, necessitating a region-specific analysis (Akinola, 2019; World Bank, 2024). The objectives are to examine the legal and institutional frameworks. The study is grounded in Neoclassical Theory, emphasizing efficient resource allocation and Policy Feedback Theory, highlighting governance feedback loops. A mixed-methods approach was employed. Findings reveal that the strength of the legal and institutional framework significantly predicts the effectiveness and sustainability of the N-Power programme across North-Central Nigeria (β = 0.621, p < .01). The regression model explains approximately 58.4% of the variance in programme success indicators, indicating a strong association between institutional stability and implementation efficiency. Quantitative results show moderate institutional effectiveness (M = 2.9), with consistent reports of bureaucratic delays and fiscal unpredictability weakening overall performance. The study concludes that while N-Power demonstrates institutional reach and potential for social transformation, its sustainability is constrained by weak legal anchoring, poor intergovernmental coordination, and irregular budgetary releases. It recommends establishing a clear legal framework, enhancing fiscal transparency, and strengthening institutional coordination to ensure programme continuity and accountability.

Stagnation or growth of Roadside Businesses: A Case Study of Emerging Economies
type: item
description: Roadside businesses are common in emerging economies. They provide jobs and basic goods to local communities. Despite this role, many fail to grow beyond subsistence level. This study aimed to explain why roadside businesses remain stagnant by exploring the structural, social, and individual factors shaping their growth in emerging economies. The study adopted a qualitative research design. It was conducted in three trading areas in Mbale City: Nkoma Stage, Kikindu, and Kiteso. Data was collected from 43 interviews. Saturation was reached at 27th interview. Data were analysed using a grounded theory approach. The findings show that growth and stagnation factors cluster into four broad themes. First are economic and operational constraints, including access to finance, transaction costs, daily cash flow challenges, and weak business operations. Second are social and household influences, such as family obligations, social expectations, and cultural norms. Third are market-related conditions, including competition, market awareness, customer demand, and the ability to adapt to changing markets. Fourth are institutional and environmental factors, which include government policies, regulatory support, physical trading environments, and exposure to weather risks. At the individual level, personal attributes also matter. These include discipline, financial literacy, risk attitude, and entrepreneurial motivation. The study makes a theoretical contribution. It extends entrepreneurship theory and the theory of the firm by proposing an Adaptive Embeddedness Model (AEM). The model explains how small businesses are shaped by constant interaction between the owner, the household, the market, and the institutional environment. The study concludes that roadside businesses are vital to emerging economies. However, survival alone is not enough. Sustained growth requires coordinated government support. This includes training in financial management, character development, access to f…

THE IMPACT OF CONFLICTS ON PARLIAMENTARY CULTURE IN UGANDA: THE BEHAVIOURAL CAUSES AND HUMAN DIGNITY.
type: item
description: This paper looks at how conflicts affect the parliamentary culture in Uganda, focusing on behaviors that causes these conflicts and their effects on human dignity; a significant shift in the behaviors of parliamentarians due to ongoing conflicts and the persistent conflicts rooted in socio-political divisions and historical grievances that had led to polarized discourse and compromised the dignity of legislative processes hence resulting in a culture of mistrust and hostility, partisanship, and intimidation within parliament. This hostile environment not only stifles constructive debate and public confidence but also erodes respect for human dignity hence a negative beacon of democratic principles as evidenced by the prevalence of derogatory language, personal attacks, physical fights among legislators, as well as violations of procedures, point to a growing tendency of dehumanization that undermines the integrity of parliamentary processes. Using a mixed-methods approach that includes interviews, case studies, and ethnographic observations among parliamentarians and stakeholders, the research revealed that widespread conflicts harm legislative processes and reduce the dignity of representatives and their constituents. The results suggest that behavioral tensions often show up as mistrust, ineffective communication, and heated interactions, which obstruct good governance and democratic participation. This research offers important insights for both policymakers and academics, stressing that dealing with behavioral conflicts is not only politically significant but also crucial for promoting human dignity and good governance, which ultimately influences the broader society, including healthcare results in Uganda.

type: item
description: The emergence of electoral violence since the inception of the Fourth Republic in 1999 has reached an unprecedented scale and evolved in form, leading to instability, democratic consolidation, irreversible infrastructure damage, and social injustice. The study revealed the causes of electoral violence and its implications for sustainable development in Nigeria. The research identified the factors contributing to election violence and its effects on sustainable democracy in Nigeria. It also highlighted strategies to address electoral violence and proposed essential policy recommendations for its eradication to ensure sustained development in Nigeria. In the contemporary world, elections have become the most accepted means of changing government. The emergence of electoral violence since the inception of Nigeria’s Fourth Republic in 1999 has reached an unprecedented scale and evolved in form, leading to instability, democratic consolidation, irreversible infrastructure damage, and social injustice. The study revealed the causes of electoral violence and its implications for sustainable development in Nigeria. The research identified the factors contributing to election violence and its effects on sustainable democracy in Nigeria. This paper adopts secondary data from books, journals, magazines, and newspapers to assess the conduct of elections, especially those of the Fourth Republic. The findings reveal that the absence of free and fair elections led to violence, resulting in candidates who did not reflect the people's choice. The paper recommends basic reforms, devolution of power at the center, and other plausible measures to ensure a true and sustainable democratic system in Nigeria, which is essential for achieving sustainable development.

IMPERATIVE OF INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT IN NIGERIA
type: item
description: While some countries have attained industrial development and working hard to maintain their status, several others are striving to attain the same feat. Nigeria ranks among countries working towards the attainment of industrial development. The issue of industrial development in Nigeria has attracted a large volume of quantitative examination. However, limited studies are focusing on a qualitative investigation of industrial development in Nigeria. The lack of qualitative studies on Nigerian industrial development constitutes a gap. Hence, this study became necessary, so, as to address the gap. The study’s adopted methodology was an exploratory approach, whereby secondary sources constituted the prime retrieval avenue. Findings from the qualitative investigation indicated that the benefits associated with industrial development are enormous which includes a structural shift in the economy in favour of the industry. The study concludes that industrial development is a necessity. The recommendations that arose from the investigation include a concentric revisit of the industrial development policy in Nigeria. More so, a close monitoring of the proper implementation of industrial policy will serve a concrete purpose. In addition, improving the ease of doing business, enhancing security, and promoting innovation and research can contribute to the growth and competitiveness of Nigerian industries. Businesses must conduct feasibility studies to assess the suitability of potential sites. The optimal location should align with the industry's specific needs, objectives, and growth strategies while considering the broader economic, social, and regulatory context accordingly. If the suggestions provided above are implemented articulately, industrial development is imminent.

Impact Customer Service Delivery On Customer Relationship Management in Customer-Centric Service Firms.
type: item
description: Research Aims: investigate the impact of customer service delivery on customer relationships management in customer-centric service firms in Nigeria. Design/methodology/approach: mixed-method research design was employed, with an infinite population size focusing on customers from 19 selected retail stores across Lagos State. The Godden (2004) model sample size was used, determining a sample size of 246. Multistage sampling techniques were utilized, and primary data was collected through structured self-administered questionnaires, face-to-face, and telephone interviews. A total of 150 questionnaires were retrieved for analysis. Standard multiple regression (SPSS version 26) was used to analyze the quantitative data, while NVivo software version 12 was used for qualitative data. Research Findings: the output from the tested hypotheses revealed that both predictor variables significantly explained the dependent variables. The hypothesis test at a 0.05 (5%) significance level did not support the formulated hypothesis that customer service delivery has no significant relationship with customer relationship management, with p<0.000. The variables jointly and significantly affected customer delivery (r=0.629, Adj. R2 =49%). Conclusion: the study concluded that quick responses to customer needs and complaints, effective and efficient order processing, and the provision of technical support are essential components for building customer relationships.

Unlocking The Potential of Plastic Manufacturing Firms to Internationalize Their Operations Through Organizational Learning: The Effect of Sustainable Marketing Strategy as a Mediator.
type: item
description: The main purpose of this research is to examine the mediating role of a sustainable marketing strategy in the link between organisational learning and the internationalisation of firms in developing nations within sub-Saharan Africa. This research adopts a cross-sectional and explanatory approach. Data were gathered from 137 plastic manufacturing firms in Uganda. The Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) and Medgraph were used to conduct descriptive, correlational, regression, and mediation analyses to determine the mediating influence of a sustainable marketing strategy. Findings indicate that organisational learning and sustainable marketing strategy are positively and significantly linked to the internationalisation of manufacturing firms. Moreover, the results reveal that sustainable marketing strategy plays a partial mediating role in the connection between organizational learning and firm internationalization in Uganda. Existing literature has not extensively explored the role of sustainable marketing strategies in internationalization. This is especially relevant as businesses face increasing pressure to align with sustainable development goals to enhance competitiveness both locally and globally." A sustainable marketing strategy provides firms with the opportunity to gain market acceptance and ultimately achieve competitiveness in international markets, where products, pricing, promotion, and distribution are expected to support environmental sustainability, uphold societal values, and foster economic growth and development.

EFFECT OF QUALITY SERVICE DELIVERY ON CONSUMERS PATRONAGE OF CHEMISTS.
type: item
description: Customers demand the fast delivery of services that maintain reasonable prices while offering high levels of quality. Consumer preference extends to service delivery without prolonged waiting time in queues. Chemists struggle with customer retention because their facilities cannot deliver high-quality services quickly to numerous customers that match new service concepts. This study focused on consumer patronage in relation to service quality delivery through a study of chemists. Cross-sectional was selected as the primary research design. This study applied Cochran's (1977) method to determine the population at 384 respondents. Tables and frequencies together with percentages presented the data while multiple linear regression evaluated the research hypotheses. Quality service delivery measured by service reliability together with service responsiveness and service tangibility leads to substantial impacts on customer patronage. This study advises chemists to develop rapid consumer complaint solutions by creating clear complaint procedures together with dedicated complaint handling departments.

Money Laundering and Economic Growth in Nigeria: A Bound Test Analysis.
type: item
description: In spite of the government's attempts to combat money laundering through the implementation of various policies which is also aimed at boosting the GDP, the prevalence of money laundering remains a cause for concern in Nigeria. This research delves into the correlation between money laundering and the expansion of the Nigerian economy e spanning from 1993 to 2019. This study adopted the Augmented Dickey Fuller (ADF) test to assess if the time series attributes of the research variables demonstrate stationarity. Furthermore, the research applied the Auto-regressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) method to explore the connection between money laundering and the advancement of the Nigerian economy. The results indicated a negative short-term correlation between economic growth (LNGDP) and the independent factors like money laundering (ML), interest rate (INT), investment (LNINV), and exchange rate (EXR). Based on the outcomes of this study, the study recommends reinforcing strategies against money laundering and intensifying the endeavors of pertinent authorities to counteract money laundering activity. Additionally, there should be an increased worldwide cooperation in implementing regulations against money laundering and addressing issues related to jurisdiction.

Human Resource Management Practices and Teachers' Commitment among Government Aided Schools in Mbale City, Uganda.
type: item
description: This study examined the relationship between human resource management practices and teachers' commitment in selected government secondary schools in Mbale City. The study used a cross-sectional research design with a quantitative approach on a target population of 237 teachers from three government-aided secondary schools in Mbale City, where a sample size of 201 teachers was selected using a simple random sampling technique. A five-point Likert questionnaire with closed-ended questions was developed, tested for validity and reliability, and later deployed for data collection. Data was analyzed using SPSS version 20, where descriptive, correlation, and regression analyses and results were produced. Human Resource Management practices had a positive and significant relationship with teachers' commitment. However, recruitment was the strongest predictor. Regression coefficients of the study revealed that recruitment predicted teachers' commitment by (β=.284, p<.05), performance appraisal by (β=.116, p<.05), job security by (β=.130, p<.05), and compensation by (β=.131, p<.05). Hence the study concluded that an increase in Human Resource Management practices result into an increase in teachers' commitment by 47.9% when other factors are kept constant. Finally, the study recommends that school administrators enhance compensation practices, such as rewarding teachers accordingly and promptly so that they can reciprocate their efforts, improving their commitment to offering more of the kind under related conditions.

Consumption Values and Usage of Carbonated Beverages in Kampala: Exploring the Mediating Role of Consumer Attitudes.
type: item
description: This study explores the mediation role of consumer attitude in the relationship between consumption values and product usage of carbonated drinks in Uganda. This paper intended to establish the relationship between consumption values and product usage, consumption values and consumer attitude, consumer attitude, and product usage, and determine the mediating role of consumer attitude between consumption values and product usage. A cross-sectional design and a quantitative approach focused on consumers in Kampala, the urban hub of carbonated drink consumption. A sample size of 384 respondents was selected. It was also established that consumer attitude significantly influences product usage, with a positive attitude leading to increased consumption. Consumer attitude partially mediated the relationship between consumption values and product usage. The results indicated a notable and positive connection between consumption values and product usage, along with a strong positive link between consumption values and consumer attitudes. This suggests that while consumption values directly impact product usage, the effect is amplified when mediated through a favorable consumer attitude. The study demonstrates that consumption values and consumer attitudes are pivotal in driving product usage. Companies in the carbonated beverage industry should prioritize strategies that foster positive consumer attitudes and align with consumers' core values to enhance product consumption.

type: item
description: The issue of crisis and violence has time immemorial being a major issue in society. It effects are widely seen at the micro and macro level. Therefore at the Macro level in the middle belt region of Nigeria, the state government being the chief security officer of the state has invented non kinetic peace measures in mitigating the rising crisis which has taken an ethno-religious posture. However, the measures seems to be ineffective has the power dynamics in the middle belt continues to fuel the crisis. The middle belt which is the food basket region of the state is now therefore reduced to a conflict zone where agricultural production output reduces day in day out and people flee for the fear of their lives. This paper applies the Power dynamic theory to explain the reason for the increasing crisis more so, the research applied the mixed research method. The research asserts that non kinetic peace measures are only effective when all stake holders involved are well identified. The research found out that the underlying hatred between and amongst the various ethnic group constitutes the major problem in the Middle belt region. The research recommends that for the middle belt to return back to it full potentials, the government must make a proactive decision in ensuring the application of the federal character policy to accommodate all the ethnic groups in the state polity.

ECONOMIC RIGHT UNDER COPYRIGHT REGIME IN NIGERIA AND THE RIGHT TO ACQUISITION OF KNOWLEDGE IN ISLAMIC LAW; ANY NEXUS?
type: item
description: Intellectual works naturally involves the expending of unquantifiable scholarly and professional efforts, it as well most time, involve huge cost in terms of money sum. The required amount of research, dedication and sacrifice in carrying out intellectual works had necessitated the protection of authors from unpermitted reproduction; there is as well the need to ensure authors gain adequate reward from their intellectual effort, thus, the enactment of the Copyright Act 2022 by the Nigerian Legislature. On the other hand, Islamic law does not have a well-structured copyright law. However, there are evidences from the sources of Law and proprietary concepts that suggests that intellectual works are not left to be indiscriminately violated as it recognises the moral right of attribution of authors to their works. The law equally views acquisition of Knowledge which is often embedded in intellectual works as a right that can be acquired wherever it is found, thus, the Law does not view the unpermitted reproduction and use of intellectual works to be offensive. However, Islamic law is not oblivious of the need to protect the efforts put into any intellectual work as well as the attendant economic right. Therefore, this paper adopted the doctrinal research methodology to explore the nexus in the Copyright regime in Nigeria and the right to acquisition of Knowledge under Islamic Law with the view to determining their points of convergence and divergence. The discussion of copyright in this work is strictly restricted to the scope of intellectual property and does not extend to other aspect of copyright.

IMPACT OF CASHLESS BANKING AND CURRENCY REDESIGN ON TAX REVENUE GENERATION IN NIGERIA
type: item
description: This paper examines the impact of the cashless banking and the redesign of the currency on tax revenue generation in Nigeria. It makes use of the doctrinal research methodology to recognise the tax prospectives of the cashless banking policy and the currency redesign initiative of the Central Bank of Nigeria. The research looks at currency redesign in other selected jurisdictions like, the United Kingdom, the United States of America and India to draw lessons from them. The study finds out that under the cashless policy, it is easier for the tax authority to fish out tax evaders. This is because the more electronic cash transactions people make, the easier it becomes for the tax authority to track their income and net worth. The currency redesign exercise also has the potential to make tax enforcement easier. This paper recommends the need for measures to be put in place by the government to ensure all necessary banking and digital payment infrastructure, the enabling legal framework to help the economies’ informal sector to accept the system of cashless payment, the enlightenment of members of the public to choose other available payment options, rather than a superfluous dependence on cash, and that Nigeria should put in place a long time plan for the phasing out of old bank notes. The paper concludes that the combination of the two will boost tax revenue and foster a more efficient tax system. Keywords: ,, , , .

STATE CAPACITY AND INCOME INEQUALITY IN NIGERIA: EVALUATING THE CHALLENGES FACED BY THE BUHARI ADMINISTRATION IN THE FOURTH REPUBLIC
type: item
description: Nigeria, since the inception of its Fourth Republic in 1999, has faced numerous challenges in its pursuit of sustainable development. Two critical dimensions that have emerged as key challenges are state capacity and income inequality. This study examines the relationship between state capacity and income inequality in Nigeria, focusing on the tenure of the Buhari administration in the Fourth Republic. State capacity, defined as the ability of the government to effectively implement policies and provide public goods, is crucial for addressing socioeconomic disparities. However, under President Muhammadu Buhari's administration, Nigeria has faced significant challenges in enhancing state capacity, including institutional weaknesses, corruption, and inadequate infrastructure. These challenges have exacerbated income inequality, as the government struggles to implement redistributive policies and foster economic growth. The research highlights how these factors, alongside global economic trends and domestic political dynamics, have hindered efforts to reduce inequality. By analyzing the intersection of state capacity and economic inequality, the study provides insights into the policy failures and structural obstacles that continue to impede equitable development in Nigeria. The findings underscore the need for comprehensive reforms to strengthen state institutions and promote inclusive growth, offering recommendations for future administrations to address these persistent issues.

BOARD DIVERSITY AND INTELLECTUAL CAPITAL DISCLOSURE IN LISTED FIRMS IN NIGERIA: THE MODERATING ROLE OF OWNERSHIP CONCENTRATION
type: item
description: This study examines the moderating role of ownership concentration on the relationship between board diversity and intellectual capital of forty-four listed non-financial services firms in Nigeria during the period of ten years from 2011-2020. The descriptive statistics tool was used to obtain summary statistics for the variables in the study. Similarly, random effects regressions with generalised least square (GLS) were employed to assess the study's hypotheses. The finding of the study revealed that board education had a significant impact on ICD.. In addition, board nationality was discovered to have a significant negative impact on ICD. The study indicated, however, that board ownership has no effect on ICD. The findings from the moderated model revealed that board education and board ownership have significant negative impact on ICD. The finding also revealed that ownership concentration increased the negative impact of board education and board ownership on intellectual capital disclosure. The study recommends that board education background should be given top priority in order to ensure quality decision concerning IC. Likewise, in order to ensure quality decision making, foreign members on the board should attend meeting regularly. Also, there should be regulation as to the percentage of shares held by directors. Finally, management should consider the multiple role of the concentrated ownership and board diversity when constituting the board. This will enable the management to carefully select, nominate, and appoint members of the board with great diversity.
