Climate Change is one of the biggest challenges of the 21st Century. In 2015, the world reached a milestone in addressing this menace with the adoption of the Paris Agreement on Climate Change. Article 3 of the Agreement requires Parties to the agreement to pledge and implement their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) towards climate change adaptation and mitigation. Nigeria as a signatory to the Paris Agreement deposited its NDC with the Agreement’s secretariat in 2017 and have also designed its internal NDC Implementation Action Plan for five Key sectors before the outbreak of the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic in 2019. In order to contain the spread of the coronavirus, certain restrictive measures (such as lockdown and closure of business) have been adopted both locally and internationally. This paper uses doctrinal research approach to appraise the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic and its containment measures on Nigeria’s NDC Implementation Action Plan for the Agriculture Sector. The paper finds that the Nigeria’s NDC Implementation Action Plan for the Agriculture Sector is highly ambitious if properly implemented. There is also no legal framework for the NDC Implementation Action Plan in Nigeria. This paper concludes by suggesting a procedural right-based approach for the Implementation of the Action Plan in Covid-19 and Post Covid-19 era in Nigeria.

Medical negligence as a tort is not materially different in law from other forms of negligence. However, an oft-overlooked proposition holds that the process of proving medical negligence is the most difficult of all proves in the law of tort. Indeed, in medical practice, the existence of a legal duty of care is of the very essence and presents no difficulty. Also, that there has been a breach of that duty, may be presumed or inferred from the plaintiff injury or harm. What is however considered extremely difficult is the process of proving that the injury or harm suffered was a direct consequence of the breach of the duty owed to a patient. Litigants and their lawyers are suddenly confronted by a mirage of challenges, described as "fortress of Jericho walls" and which they must overcome if their case is to succeed. This research therefore examines issues relating to the difficulties experienced in the process of proving medical negligence in Nigeria and the mitigating options. The study adopts a doctrinal method of study. The primary and secondary sources of the material relied on were analysed through a descriptive and analytical method. The study observes that the fault-based litigating system appears to be unduly protective of the medical practitioners, to the detriment of the injured patients. Consequently, it is recommended that Nigeria should adopt approaches that can help ease the burden of proof placed on an already burden-laden patient.

Authors: Tsvetkov Tsvetan , Petrova Nadya , Blagova Hristina , Daskalova Denica , Vitanova Detelina , Shumkova Rositsa
Published: August 2024

Cryopreservation of economically important or endangered animal species is becoming an increasingly popular practice in the field of reproductive biotechnologies. The mass extinction of honey bee (Apis Mellifera) colonies in the last decade requires the use of new chemical components in cryopreservation media for the storage of male gametes. A number of studies demonstrate conflicting data regarding the success rate and cytotoxicity of glycerol and dimethyl sulfoxide and to a lesser extent Trehalose. Dimethyl sulfoxide is an organosulfur compound with low cryotoxicity which transforms into solids below room temperature and this property makes it suitable for cryoprotectant. The kosmotropic properties of glycerol allow it to create hydrogen bonds with water molecules, making it difficult to form intracellular ice crystals in the cryoprotective media. Due to its high-water retaining properties Trehalose can be used as cryoprotectant, but its effectiveness has not yet been thoroughly researched in relation to the cryopreservation of bee drone spermatozoa. The research aims to compare the effectiveness of each of the specified cryoprotectants regarding the preservation of spermatozoa from Apiss Mellifera drones.
