Text of Note

Several oil multinational corporations operating in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria are faced with the issues of ineffective corporate social responsibility per the perspectives of the stakeholders in the region. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the perspectives of political stakeholders on the current issues with the social initiatives by the oil multinational corporations as well as proper solutions to enhance the effectiveness of the corporate social responsibility initiatives. The research was guided by the Stakeholders conceptual framework and Corporate Social Responsibility Theory. Furthermore, the study employed qualitative descriptive analysis of 35 purposively selected political stakeholders from Rivers and Delta States in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. The research took place in the region in face-to-face semi- structured interviews with the participants. The local political stakeholders of the oil multinational corporations asserted that the current social initiatives programs' executions were defective and hence their ineffectiveness. Therefore, the political stakeholders solutions included accepting the local political leaders as the true representatives of the communities, engaging in globally accepted contract award system, awarding scholarships on merits, offering employments to youths, adhering to local contents laws, and investing in environmental clean-ups. Engaging in these suggestions will enhance the effectiveness of the corporate social initiatives and alleviate the poverty in the region. The research recommended future studies of political stakeholders of oil multinational corporations in other States of the Niger Delta, namely Bayelsa and Cross River States.
