Chapter One: Introduction
1.1 Background of the Study
Renewable energy solutions, such as solar, wind, and hydropower, are increasingly being recognized as essential for sustainable development, especially in rural areas like Nguru Local Government Area (LGA), Yobe State. However, despite the environmental and economic benefits of renewable energy, many rural communities remain unaware of these solutions or lack the knowledge to adopt them. Broadcasting, particularly through radio and television, can play a crucial role in promoting renewable energy solutions by educating communities about the advantages of these technologies and how to implement them. This study examines the effectiveness of broadcasting in promoting renewable energy solutions in Nguru LGA.
1.2 Statement of the Problem
