The rapid growth of online transactions in Indonesia has increased the demand for efficient  interbank transfer solutions. However, the costs associated with such transactions have become a significant obstacle. Flip, a company with a vision to become a global leader in customer satisfaction-driven services, offers a solution to this challenge. This study proposes an aspect-based sentiment analysis method using the K-Nearest Neighbors (K-NN) algorithm to analyze user sentiment on key aspects, namely speed, security, and the cost of using the Flip application. The results of this research provide valuable information that can be used as a basis to provide insights, suggestions and recommendations to businesses, so they can create better solutions and promote optimal user experience. The research results show that the K-NN model has the ability to predict user psychology well in all aspects, with a significant level of accuracy, specifically speed (73.04%), security (86, 05%) and costs (80.11%). In addition, this study also compares two model validation methods: simple  data splitting method and K-Fold cross-validation. Although the simple data splitting method has a higher average accuracy, K-fold cross-validation is considered superior as it provides a more accurate and reliable estimate of the overall performance of the model. Sentiment analysis results  show that Flip app users tend to give negative feedback on speed and security, while they give positive feedback on cost. Therefore, the main recommendation is that the company PT Fliptech Lentera Inspirasi Pertiwi improves the speed and security aspects to increase user satisfaction with the Flip application. Therefore, this customer-centric service will continue to prioritize user satisfaction as its primary goal.

Published: September 2023

In Kenya, the manufacturing industry makes a substantial contribution to productivity, innovation, and economic growth. Despite the significance of the sector, its financial performance remains erratic and unstable over the last few years. Working capital management remains a key factor in explaining financial performance of firms in the manufacturing sector though empirical evidence has not clearly captured the relationship hence the motivation for this research effort. The study sought to assess the impact of working capital management’s cash management, debtors management, inventory management and creditors management on financial performance of firms listed under manufacturing and allied at NSE in addition to determine the moderating effect of inflation on the link between WCM and financial performance of firms in the Kenya’s manufacturing sector. Secondary data was used and the target audience in this study composed of all the eight quoted firms for a period of five years (2018 to 2022). The study revealed that cash management had a significant effect (p=0.0000) below the significance level of 0.05 on financial health of firms listed under industrail and allied at NSE, Kenya. While debtors management had a significant effect (p=0.046) on financial performance whose  p-value was below the significance value of 0.05. The Inventory management had no significant effect  (p=0.090) on financial performance of firms with a value above 0.05 significant level. Creditors management  had an insignificant effect (p=0.144) above the significance level of 0.05. The study found that good cash management and debtor management improved company’s financial health. The study recommended development of cash management policies to direct investment of excess cash for efficient maintenance of optimal cash levels and assured good cash budgeting and planning.

Access to Land for Sustainable National Development: Land Delivery Channels and Tenure Security Institutions in Benin City, Nigeria
Authors: Agheyisi Justin E.
Published: September 2023

It is increasingly being recognized that secure tenure is the bedrock of sustainable development. Used as one of the indicators for measuring progress in development goals, secure tenure forms the basic framework for assessing sustainable human settlements’ development since its adoption in the 1996 Istanbul Declaration. Since secure land tenure has been recognized to reduce poverty, land conflicts and guarantee property inheritance, it, therefore, forms part of an integrated development approach of the Post-2015 Development Agenda in the context of human settlements. This article, therefore, examines the place of access to land and tenure security in the context of sustainable development with a particular focus on neo-customary land delivery systems and tenure security institutions that underpinned tenure rights in Benin City. Through focus group discussions (FGDs) with key actors and semi-structured interviews of resident home-owners, the customary process and institutions that guaranteed tenure security were identified. The study reveals a number of key tenure security issues in the neo-customary land delivery systems which show that though neo-customary land delivery channels increase access to land, sustainable development will be compromised as long as the customary institutions cannot guarantee secure tenure, particularly for the urban poor.

A total of 12,533 drivers of freight vehicles who at the time of the survey were conveying goods in their vehicles for delivery were randomly sampled. Both descriptive and inferential statistical techniques were employed for data analysis. Simple percentages, averages, tabulation and charts are some of the descriptive statistical techniques employed to measure the spread of observations. Two-Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was used to test the hypothesis that “freight vehicle’s trips do not vary by land use types in the study area”. Urban land use was found to significantly influence freight trips. The study revealed that commercial, industrial, residential and circulatory land uses are the pivots upon which urban freight movement revolves in the study area. Commercial land use is the largest generator (42%) and attractor (34%) of urban freight trips. Industrial land use generates 28% and attracts 20% of the urban freight trips, while residential land use generates 4% and attracts 26%. Also, circulatory land use generates 17% and attracts 8% of the urban freight trips. The analysis also revealed that small trucks are the commonly used vehicles for intra-urban freight movement in the study area accounting for about 47% of the freight trips. Also, freight vehicles’ trips significantly varied by land use types, F (4, 1) = 3097.39, P = 0.13. This study concludes that land use types played a significant role in the pattern of freight traffic distribution in the study area. It was therefore recommended that efforts should be directed towards effective freight transport planning and management in the study area.

This paper analyses the trends of inequality and its implications on the sustainable development of Delta State, Nigeria with a view to understanding the variation in inequality over space. A stratified sampling technique was adopted. Inequality was measured based on Gini co-efficient index from (2004-2016), while poverty categories (non-poor, transient poor and chronic poor) were measured using $1.25 and $2.00 thresholds. A Gini co-efficient of 0.4650 was recorded for Delta State in (2004), 0.4698 in (2010), 0.33609 in (2012/13) and 0.34268 in (2015/16). There were 343 (41.5%) chronic poor households in Delta South, 283 (33.3%) in Delta Central and 180 (22.2%) in Delta North, while 147 (21.6%) households in Delta South, 116 (12.7%) in Delta North and 103 (11.3%) in Delta Central were transient poor. One-Way ANOVA significantly explained the spatial variation in distribution of inequality and poverty among households at (p<0.05). Water source (F=24.786), distance to water source (F=18.509), improved sanitation (F=15.973), road length (F=9.468) and household size (F=7.398) were important predictors of spatial variation of inequality and poverty. This paper recommends that government at all levels should invest more in livelihood development, improved income distribution at the bottom and access to opportunities is key to reducing inequality and enhancing sustainable development of Nigeria.

Malaria is a major parasitic disease in the world including Nigeria which currently bears the brunt of the global malaria mortality burden. This paper responds to the need for all countries in the world including Nigeria to understand the geographical distribution and drivers of malaria mortality with the aim of consolidating the gains of global malaria elimination. The thrust of this paper therefore was to examine the geographical distribution, spatial clustering and determinant(s) of malaria mortality in Nigeria from 2006 to 2010. Retrospective data used in this research were obtained from published sources and were analysed with the aid of statistical and spatial analytical tools. Very noticeable state variations were observed in the pattern of malaria mortality, and strong and persistent clustering of malaria-related deaths was found in northwest Nigeria particularly Kano State due to high levels of malaria transmission. Lastly, there was a significant and differential effect of poverty on its geographical distribution; with the greatest effect felt in the north of Nigeria. In order to reduce death toll associated with the disease, the war against poverty must not only be intensified but should be mainstreamed into the national malaria control programme.

The lbani of Rivers State, Nigeria, have a high incidence ef maternal and infant mortality/morbidity, which has been linked to the perception, attitude and practices of the people with regard to pregnancy and childbirth. This study examines the process leading to pregnancy outcomes among the Ibani. Through an interdisciplinary approach, it provides an in-depth and comprehensive understanding of the association between pregnancy outcome and child spacing; source of antenatal care; and access to and use of antenatal health care facilities. Data was collected through in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, case studies, observation and survey questionnaires. The findings indicate that pregnancy outcome among the Ibani is not necessarily derived from spousal communication and gender discourse, because women whose husbands were solely responsible for decision making on child spacing recorded higher type-I (mother and child survival) outcome (87.7 per cent) than those who shared decision making with their spouse. There is no consistent relationship between the amount of time spent on getting to the source of antenatal care and pregnancy outcomes because Thani women who spent between 31 and 59 minutes to get to the source of antenatal had more type-I] outcomes thin those who spent about 30 minutes. Other factors affecting pregnancy outcomes, among the Ibani of Rivers State, include communal and individual values, norms and practices, and their persistent influence signals a need to investigate their separate and combined influences on pregnancy outcomes. The study contributes to a demographic understanding of hove macro-level factors impinge upon individual-level events like pregnancy outcomes.

Background: Foodborne diseases are a significant public health issue globally, with approximately 30% of the population in developed countries suffering from diarrheal diseases caused mainly by foodborne microbial pathogens. In developing countries, food handlers, including meat sellers, are the primary determinants of food contamination due to poor regulatory systems for food hygiene. This cross-sectional study determined intestinal parasites’ prevalence and associated factors among meat sellers in Nigeria.
Methods: Using convenience sampling, 139 meat sellers in four markets in Ilorin, Kwara State, were selected. Stool samples were collected from each participant using a clean and dry stool container. The stool samples were analyzed using direct smear saline and formal-ether concentration techniques. The parasites were identified and counted under a microscope. The primary outcome was the presence of one or more intestinal parasitic species in stool samples. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the Chi-Square test, and binary logistics regression.
Results: Of the 139 meat sellers in this study, 74(53.2%) were females, while 65(46.8%) were males. Most participants (43.9%) were in the age group 31-40 years compared to the age group 51-56 years (9.4%), with the least participants. The participants’ education levels varied, with those with primary education (46.8%) being the highest, followed by those with tertiary education (31.7%). Based on religion, 37 (26.6%) participants were Christians, while 102 (73.4%) were Muslims. 59.7% of the meat sellers haboured one or more intestinal parasites. The odds ratio for gender indicates that when holding all other variables constant, a female is 1.7 times more likely to have a parasite than a male. The odds ratios of those with primary and secondary education levels are 1.4 and 1.7, respectively, suggesting that despite the level of education, they were more likely to habour intestinal parasites. The age group did not significantly affect the presence of intestinal parasites (p>0.05).
Conclusion: This study shows a high prevalence of intestinal parasites among meat sellers in Ilorin. The findings highlight the importance of implementing preventive measures and promoting awareness to reduce the burden of intestinal parasites in this community. In addition, large-scale screening and mass drug administration are recommended...

Published: September 2023

Background: Urology is a branch of medicine that focuses on the surgical and medical diseases of the geni-tourinary system. This area of specialty can be broken down into several subspecialties. The information on the spectrum of urological procedures is sparse in our environment. This study aimed todeterminethe spec-trum of urological procedures at Ladoke Akintola University of Technology Teaching Hospital Ogbomoso, Oyo State Nigeria.. The study’s objective was to determine the age and gender distribution, the type and in-dication of the procedures, and the common subspecialty categorization. This may serve as a policy frame-work for healthcare development in the field of urology, including sub-specialization.
Methods: The records of patients with urological procedures between July 2013 and June 2022 were re-trieved from the hospital’s Medical Records Department. The information retrieved from case files was ana-lyzed using SPSS version 23.
Results: A total of 1,069 urological procedures were done between the years under review. This comprises 998males (93.31%) and 71 females (6.64). The most common in-patient urological procedure was open sim-ple prostatectomy (14.1%, 151 patients), while the most common outpatient urological procedure was pros-tatic needle biopsy (32.74%; 350). Urethrocystocopy accounted for 7.48% (80). Suspected prostate cancer was the most common indication for these procedures (32.74%; 350), while benign prostate enlargement was the most common indication for in-patient procedures.
Conclusion: The most common outpatient procedure was prostate biopsy, while the most common in-patient procedure was open simple prostatectomy..
