INTRODUCTION
Although several authors and researchers have made their inputs on the benefits and
challenges of Artificial Intelligence, but little attention has been drawn to its engagement with
citizens in Nigeria which is my case study, hence this study.
Research Questions
This study will be guided by the following research questions in the conduct of this research:
Research Objectives
The main objective of this research is to explore the impact of Generative Artificial Intelligence
on Government Engagement with citizens in Nigeria. The specific objectives of the research
are to:
I have outlined the following hypothesis to serve as a guide to our thought throughout this
research. The following null and alternative hypotheses will be tested.
The essence of this study is to educate the public and stakeholders on the impacts of
Generative Artificial Intelligence on Government Engagement with citizens in Nigeria. This
research will draw the attention of government and stakeholders in various sectors for example
health, finance, education, security, engineering, manufacturing, research, and technology in
understanding the application and benefits of Artificial intelligence to enhance productivity
and effectiveness of the sectors. The findings of this research work will also serve as reference
for academic endeavor to lecturers and students and also help the public who would want to
know the potential benefits, challenges and prospects of the use of the artificial
intelligence.Finally, this research will be a contribution to the body of literature in the area of
the impact of Generative Artificial Intelligence on Government Engagement with citizens in
Nigeria, thereby constituting the empirical literature for future research in the subject area.
METHODOLOGY
This section explains the techniques and styles implored to achieve the objectives of this
research work. The methodology for the research work included study method, location of study,
study populace, methods used for sampling, and size of the sample, sources, and method of
collection of data as well as the research tools including a description, pretesting, validating, and
performing consistency of tools and techniques of analyzing data. It gives the procedural
blueprint to direct some randomly given examination.
Research Design
This study will adopt a descriptive survey design which will involve the systematic collection,
presentation, and analysis of data on the impacts of Generative Artificial Intelligence on
government engagement with citizens in Nigeria.
Study Population
Sample is a group of people, objects, or items that are taken from a larger population
for measurement. The sample should be a representative of the population to ensure that we
can generalize the findings from the research sample to the population as a whole. As a result
of the inability to study the whole nation under study, a representative number of 500 will be
use as the sample size population using percentage sampling techniques, 10 per cent of the
population which is 50 will be administered a questionnaire. This method of sampling allows
for the selection of respondents who were knowledgeable, and their experiences guarantee a
proper understanding on the the impacts of Generative Artificial Intelligence on government
engagement with citizens in Nigeria.
Data that will be gotten while conducting research are known as primary data, while
those collected from a published document such as relevant publications and journals are called
secondary data. Both primary and secondary will be utilize for the collection of data. The
primary source of data will be obtained through the use of a questionnaire which will be design
and distributed to respondents by the researcher. For this study, 100 respondents who have in-
depth knowledge of the impacts of Generative Artificial Intelligence on government
engagement with citizens in Nigeria will be administered a questionnaire.
In the bid to further enrich, ensure the validity and relevance of the collected data,
secondary sources such as academic journal published and unpublished books, official bulletins
and documents, public and inaugural lectures, and other relevant texts will be consulted during
this research.
Validity of the questionnaire will be tested as the questionnaire will be subjected to thorough
examination by the supervisor who will evaluate the statements in the questionnaire for
relevance. The reliability will also be tested using codded and responses input into SPSS.
This entails the detail of the empirical analysis which will be clearly stated in this stage
step by step. The data will be analyzed through the use of descriptive and inferential statistics
such as frequency distribution, tables, and percentages. This method of data analysis is highly
useful as it allows the researcher to compare information as well as to detect trends in the
opinion of respondents. After the questionnaire will be administered, the researcher will
analyze the responses and aligned them with the research objectives.
