INTRODUCTION

 

• Background of the Study

 

Most people accept the idea the media can influence people but the degree of that influence as well as who is most impacted, how and why, have been the subject of great debate among communication scholars for nearly a century. Media effects refer to the many ways individuals and society maybe influenced by both news and entertainment. Mass media including film, television, radio, newspapers, books magazines, websites, games and music. Although in this study, the medium used is television.

 

Media effect has been studied by scholars in communication, psychology, sociology, political, science, anthropology, and education among other fields. Many early communication models designed to explain the process of message dissemination were simple-one-way and linear (Shannon and weaver, 1994), positioning the medium or message as the cause and the behavioural, emotional, or psychological response as the effect (Bryant and Thompson, 2002, pp. 4-5). Morden conceptualization, however, typically illustrate a two-way process that is more transactional or interactive in nature in which the message or the medium affects the recipient(s) , but the audience, in turn, influences and shapes the senders.

 

In the early part of the 20^th century, concerns about political propaganda, manipulation by

 

the elite and the rising popularity of the electronic media led to the so theory, which envisaged media message as strong drugs or potent weapon that could have

 

powerful effect on helpless audience ( LA swell, 1991; Lippmann, 1992). However, while

 

 

 

11

 

 

these theories explained some behaviour, they did not account for the different responses individual may have to the same media source. In the 1950s and 60s, empirical research began to uncover the moderating power of predispositions and peer group, concluding that

 

the           media‟s  llimpactofenwasreferredsma   to   as   the   „l

 

1960; Lazars Feld Bergeson, 1998 and Gaudet, 1998). In the 1970s and 80s, prominent scholars begins to look more closely again at the media relationship to knowledge, opinion, attitudes and level of violence, concluding that media effect could be significant in some cases even if not all powerful.. Scholars also came to agree that some vulnerable groups such as children may be more heavily influenced by media than others (Bryant and Thompson, 2002; Mc Combs and Shaws 1994; Mc Luhan, 2000).

 

The above leads to the medium of communication (ABS television) that will be used to influence the behaviour of Awka residents.

 

The         word   television   (TV)   is   derived   from   mi

 

Greek tele, far and Latin Visio, sight. From video, (vis-to-see, or to view in the first person). It is widely used telecommunication used for transmitting and receiving moving images, either monochromatic (black and white) or colour. Usually accompanied by sound. Television has been regarded as a spontaneous, most effective media that can be used to disseminate information with a lasting impression on the minds of the audience. Television has made tremendous effort in broadcasting to the Awka residents because of its audio/video ability which is appealing to the viewer.

 

Awka is a city in Anambra state Nigeria with so many commercial trades. Some of these trades are ignorant of the best method of rendering services to the public. In Nigeria especially in Awka, most ignorant men and women are unaware of the kind of implication

 

 

 

12

 

 

of the kind of business they engage themselves in, that is why the television from the broadcast media was established to put such people in the right path.

 

With the creation of Anambra and Imo state in 1967, Anambra broadcasting service was born. The federal government acquired the television area of the station in 1977, re-baptised it Anambra broadcasting corporation (ABC). The radio wing was left behind, in1982, ABC radio 2 Onitsha was born.

 

Gov. Jim Nwobodo in 1981, established another television station. In 1985, the radio merged with the television with appellation, ABS radio/ TV Enugu. In 1991, ABS could boast of ABS radio 1 Enugu, ABS radio 2 Onitsha, ABS radio 3 FM Enugu, ABS TV channel 5-0 Enugu and ABS channel 2-7 Onitsha.

 

With the creation of the new AnambraEnugu states in 1991, and the subsequent disengagement of the staff on March 16, 1992, the Anambra broadcasting service (RITV) Awka.

 

After the state creation, the first movement was to Ontisha-4 park road- the location of our

 

AM station. From Onitsha, the headquarters in January, 1993. The movement continued to party house, okpuno in January 1994.

 

However, Anambra broadcasting service (ABS) moved to its permanent site on the Enugu/Onitsha expressway in Awka in January, 2002.

 

There are three other operational areas:

 

• The broadcasting house at 4 park road, Onitsha.

 

• The television station at Awada.

 

• The booster station at Enugwu-Ukwu.

 

Anambra broadcasting service transmits on the following frequencies;

 

 

 

 

13

 

Television- ABS TV channel 27 Onitsha, ABS TV channel 24 Awka.

 

With two television and two radio stations, both at Onitsha and Awka, ABS can boast of wide coverage reaching out to neighbouring states e.g. Delta, Edo, Enugu, and Imo and beyond.

 

Even with Anambra broadcasting service (ABS) it is not certain the kind of impact it has on these commercial traders. For instance, Janis and Hovland (1959) discussed various

 

factors associated with „persuasive‟ and s amongst other things, on the prestige of the source, or on the significance of the message

 

for the receiver, or on the attitude of the receiver to the source.

 

Also Kelman (1961) comes closer to this in his analysis of social influence, suggesting that

 

three main processes might be involved in opinion change. One of these   „complianc

 

refers  to  the  acceptance  of  influence  in the  expectation of some  reward  or  to  avoid

 

punishment „identification‟, occurs when a and hence imitates or adopt ization‟,behaviour isaccoin describe influence guided-existingneedsbyand valuesthe. receiver‟s

 

 

The television could affect these traders positively or negatively. Therefore, for positive result, it is the job of the media houses to give well programmed and packaged information to the audience (commercial consumers and he consumer at large). These commercial activities of Awka residents are their major means of survival. So the commercial developmental programmes should be well broadcasted so that it will foster the spirit of hard work and high productivity with the view of arising creativity and inquisitiveness in the people.

 

 

 

 

 

 

14

 

 

Many researcher adopt functional approach to the study of communication process from the perception of the receiver rather than the sender (Wimmer and Dominick, 2003; 407).

 

These researchers base their investigation effect which posits that audience do not take media messages for granted (Tsao and Sibley,

 

2004: 788-87) but is at least.

 

As active as the sender (Fiske, 1990: 151). Fiske Firther argues that the message is what the audience make of it and not what the sender intends.

 

For a successful programme, „programming‟ i to broadcast such material. Programming means determining the kind of programme to

 

make, the belt or slot in which to bring them out, the target audience, the ratio or mix of other programme types in relations to the ones produced, the general objectives of each programme type.

 

In packaging a potent programme, the producer should endeavour to focus more on how the service of the broadcast media are of benefit to the audience rather than concentrating on the product features.

 

Media houses in Awka like Anambra broadcasting service (ABS) has its functions steamed from the understanding that it is the source from which the Awka residents choose what commercial trades suit them best and method of doing the business.

 

Nevertheless, there is no denying the fact that the effect of the television has on the Awka resident is powerful but sometime ineffective because of the location of some of the commercial traders. A recent study conducted show that some commercial traders

 

especially in the rural areas do not have television sets to watch   „ABS   business

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

15

 

 

link programme „while other prefer to get of information from television.

 

 

 

The adoption of the „modus operandi‟ (mode can be seen in the method they use in approaching their business. One great difficulty for researcher is how to measure media effect. thought, emotions or behaviour in ways could be direct or indirect, immediate or delayed,

 

 

fleeting or lasting. It is impossible for scientist to control for all the mediating factors from levels of television consumption to demographics such as age, race, and socio-economic status, to harder to measure variables like environment, upbringing, values and previous experiences.

 

It is envisage that at the end of this study the outcome in formulating and packaging of television programmes for commercial traders, business men and women etc. it will give them the knowledge on the effect of ABS television business link programme on their commercial activities. All above, the study will increase existing and good talk shows on how to develop the commercial activity of Awka residents.

 

• Statement of Research Problem

 

There has been a concerted effort by the Anambra Broadcasting service (ABS) to create a positive impact on the Awka residents concerning their commercial activities for instance,

 

the Awka television station, „Anambra Broa increase the growth of the commercial activities of Awka residents. These Awka residents

 

include the sellers and the consumers of the goods and services. This medium communication (television) helps these people positively by giving them the right feel about a business or commercial activity of Awka.

 

 

16

 

 

Broadcasting programming is a problem in a broadcasting media i.e. Television. According to Olugboji (1997), little attention is paid to producing cultural relevant local programmes that could contribute meaningfully to the development of the society. The television station strives to give broadcasting to Awka residents on what suits them best in terms of the commercial activities.

Abstract

 

In the dawn of this millennium where communication technologies have taken new and intriguing dimensions, television programmes have taken communication even to a much fascinating plane. The television has made it possible to receive and send information to and from far flung places with the speed of lightening. This study which centres on the effects of ABS television business link programme on the commercial activities of Awka residents at Awka metropolis examined the negative and positive effects of the television programme on the commercial activities of Awka residents. Research methodology used in gathering data and information for the study is questionnaire, presentation of data analysis, testing of hypotheses along with result discussions. The findings revealed that there is a high level of success by the ABS television business link in impacting the desired change in Awka residents and that Awka residents expose themselves to ABS television business link. It recommended that the Government should ensure that ABS television reach those who outside the state so that they can also benefit from it.
