| dc.description.abstract | The media influence has ushered us into a new world order of media imperialism. Information plays a paramount role in International Relations both as a means of communication between people and as an instrument of understanding and knowledge between nations. The programme Duniya Makwanta Rikici (DMR) a creation of Radio Nigeria Kaduna (RNK) is a response to the unending crises and conflicts around the world in an attempt to give the listeners the ‘’other side of the story and of the analysis” in a balanced and factual representation of the issues at hand devoid of sentiments or propaganda. However, when the war in Iraq ended and the programme dedicated to the Iraqi war called “Mu Kewaye Duniya Mu sha labari” lost its relevance, Radio Nigeria Kaduna (RNK) replaced it with Duniya Makwanta Rikici (DMR) in view of the proliferation of conflicts across the globe. The researcher adopts the convenience sampling method with a sample of 150 people as subjects from Kaduna, Katsina, Kano, Bauchi, Nasarawa and Zamfara States and direct interviews with some key stakeholders of the programme both in and outside the Radio Nigeria Kaduna (RNK). The finding reveals that majority of the respondents who are listeners of Duniya Makwanta Rikici (DMR) of Radio Nigeria said the programme provides an alternative view on World affairs contrary to the Western media as it addresses the lopsided nature of Western media against Islam and Africa. The way and manner Islam and Africa are presented by the Western media as violent and uncompromising terrorists poor, corrupt and timidly uncivilized people is really of great concern to the majority of the respondents as they view the programme as a counter narrative to the Western media propaganda and therefore, it does not affect them on issues relating to Islam and Africa. It was therefore recommended among others that the management of Radio Nigeria Kaduna (RNK) should ensure effective measures are taken regarding the programme Duniya Makwanta Rikici (DMR). There should be proper monitoring and evaluation in addition; a yardstick should be in place in the selection of Producers and presenters of the programme. Care must be taken in the way and manner the resource persons are selected for the programme to avoid derailing or below standard performance. The management of Radio Nigeria Kaduna (RNK) should device a feedback mechanism in order to assess the entire production. | en |
