Authors: Abdou Issoufou Mamane , Hassane Yahaya Bissala , Mella Tchicama Mamane , Zanguina Adamou 
Published: September 2024

Au Niger la disponibilité des engrais est une contrainte pour la productivité agricole. Afin de produire un compost de bonne qualité en un délai moyen de compostage de 35 jours avec une capacité de production pouvant aller jusqu`à 15 tonnes de compost pour un seul chargement, il a été élaboré au cours de cette étude un compost (C2) de qualité chimique à travers une technique de compostage aérobie sans retournements en système semi fermé, qui permet une optimisation de la main d’œuvre, de la quantité d’eau d’arrosage, et de la durée de compostage, et un autre compost (C1) par la méthode traditionnelle en fosse. Les matériaux utilisés étaient constitués de tige de mil broyée et de fumier de bovin dans les proportions respectives de 2/3 et 1/3. Le mélange ainsi constitué était composté durant trois mois pour les deux types de composts C1 et C2. Les composts élaborés présentaient les caractéristiques physico-chimiques suivantes :Pour le C1 après 90 jours d’incubation :pH 8.6 ; CE : 1.23mS/cm ; MO :15.845% ;C :9.19% ;Azote :0.60% ;C/N :15.31 ; Phosphore : 0.75% ; Potassium : 0.79% ; Calcium : 3.01% et Magnésium : 0.61% et pour le C2 après 30 jours d’incubation : pH8.7 ; CE : 1mS/cm ; MO : 15.043% ; C : 8.72% ; Azote : 0.65% ; C/N : 13.41; Phosphore : 0.80 ; Potassium : 0.88% ; Calcium : 3.54% et Magnésium : 0.683%.Ces composts, en particulier le C2 présentait mieux des caractéristiques favorables pour être utilisé comme nutriment aux plantes, par le biais de la restauration de la fertilité du sol. Nos résultats offrent ainsi des nouveaux outils écologiques, alternatifs et innovants de restauration des terres afin de soutenir une agriculture durable et rentable au Niger

Bane of crude oil exploration in the Niger Delta: The example of Ossy Okeke’s liquid black gold
Authors: Iloma Richard Nyenwemaduka 
Published: September 2024

Crude oil is a major source of foreign exchange and revenue generation for the Nigerian economy. It is one of Nigeria’s numerous natural resources found in communities in the Niger Delta region. While its exploration has yielded significant growth in the Nigerian economy, the seeming unabated grievances and recurrent outbursts of agitations and crises that translate into militancy and other forms of civil disturbances among host communities have raised serious problem in destroying mutual relationship between oil companies, host communities and government. The resultant effect is the depletion of production and its negative consequences on the gross domestic product (GDP) of the country. This study attempted to improve relationship between the concerned stakeholders by investigating causes and effects of grievances, agitations and civil disturbances in Niger Delta. It was guided by FrustrationAggression Theory as a framework to qualitatively analyse a purposively sampled film, Liquid Black Gold by Ossy Okeke Junior. A critical textual autopsy of the film revealed that these unending agitations are predominantly caused by external and internal factors, vis-a-vis the neglect and irresponsibility of government on one side and the corrupt and fraudulent penchants of most Niger Delta leaders on the other side. This study recommended the legislation and implementation of policies on improved corporate social responsibility (CSR) to host communities in Niger Delta and the deterrence of corrupt practices by government agencies and leadership class in the area.
Radiological accuracy in locating a migrated IUD from the uterine cavity
Authors: Wangwe Peter Joseph 
Published: September 2024

The Intra Uterine Device (IUD) is a safe and common form of contraception. Locating a lost IUD following silent perforation of the uterus either during or after IUD insertion is challenging. Locating the IUD using radiological investigation is straightforward. However, the use of a series of radiological investigations which brings the same management outcome is controversial in terms of cost. This is a report of a rare case in which several radiological investigations were conducted following IUD migration from the uterine cavity. The patient presented with lower abdominal pain and dyspareunia for oneyear post IUD insertion. Plain pelvic X-ray has less diagnostic accuracy in locating a migrated IUD compared to pelvic ultrasound and pelvic Computer Tomography (CT). Although it is cheap and can be done in low resource areas where there is minimal health investment it should be used as a preliminary investigation in case pelvic ultrasound is not available. This case report shows the important role of different imaging modalities, depending on cost, infrastructure, availability of radiological expertise, and the timely availability of endoscopic services, in diagnosing and managing a displaced IUD compared to open surgery.
Restoration of the true meanings of education. Book review: Theology of education in the Christian paradigm / Ed. by prof. D. V. Shmonin. SPb.: SPThA Publishing House, 2023. 479 p. (Theology: history and modernity)

Статья представляет собой отзыв на коллективную монографию «Теология образования в христианской парадигме», вышедшую в издательстве СПбДА в рамках книжной серии «Теология: история и современность», выпускаемой усилиями кафедры богословия СПбДА. Книга издана под общей редакцией директора Института теологии СПбГУ, профессора кафедры богословия СПбДА Д. В. Шмонина. Показано, как авторы, чьи работы собраны на страницах труда, рассматривают ключевые моменты в истории развития образовательной парадигмы. В частности, внимание уделено главам, посвященным теологии образования в Античности, образованию в эпоху византийского гуманизма и идеям русского православного просвещения в текстах классиков отечественной литературы, религиозных мыслителей и государственных деятелей Российской империи конца XVIII — начала XIX вв. Помимо поиска общего ценностного субстрата образования как культурно-религиозного феномена, которым является практика служения Богу и человеку (теозис), путем сравнительного анализа выделяются существенные отличия между тремя парадигмами, сформулированные в виде следующих лапидарных формул: теозис как телос образования (Античность), образование как аскетический путь реализации теозиса (византийский гуманизм), образование как служение государству, монарху и Церкви (русское православное просвещение). Подчеркивается, что монография является новым важным шагом в развитии русской историко-богословской науки.
The article represents a review of the collective monography “Theology of education in the Christian paradigm”, published by SPThA Press within the “Theology: History and Modernity” book series along with SPThA Theology Faculty. The book is published under prof. D. V. Shmonin common edition — SPbSU Theology Institute director, Theology professor of St Petersburg Theological Academy. The article shows the authors, whose works are presented on the volume pages, consider the crucial moments of the Christian educational paradigm history. In particular, special attention is paid to the articles dedicated to theology of education in Antiquity, education during the Byzantine humanism and also the Russian orthodox Enlightenment ideas given in the texts of Russian literature masters, religious thinkers and statesmen of XVIII–XIX с. Apart from the common axiological substrate search of education as cultural-religious phenomenon, that is the Divine and humanistic service practice (theosis), the main differences between the three paradigms are emphasized via a comparative analysis and presented as the following brief formulae: theosis as the telos of education (Antiquity), education as the ascetical way to realize theosis (Byzantine humanism) and education as the way to serve the state, monarch and Church (Russian Enlightenment). It is emphasized that the monography is a new step in Russian historical-theological science.

Factors influencing senior staff training transfer: Evidence from the University of Cape Coast
Authors: OTSIBU Ignatius P.K. , Agyapong Seth Anderson 
Published: September 2024

This paper examined the factors influencing employee training transfer by drawing evidence from the University of Cape Coast. The study used the explanatory research design and a cross-sectional survey strategy. Primary data were gathered from 250 respondents out of 500 trained Senior Staff (SS) of the University of Cape Coast (UCC) with the aid of a questionnaire. This study adopted the partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) technique to test the research hypotheses. This study is limited to SS in UCC, Ghana. Hence, the results may not be generalizable to other districts and sectors. The results revealed that motivation to transfer, the opportunity to transfer, supervisory support, and training design have a significant relationship with training transfer by SS in UCC. The study identified factors influencing SS training transfer, taking evidence from UCC. Human Resource Directorates/Departments can strategize to influence SS training transfer. This paper is unique because it attempts to research training transfer from a developing country's perspective. Evidence from this paper reveals a topic that is not well-researched in the Ghanaian setting. It recognizes the need to offer practical help to HRD practitioners and international consultants and provides theoretical insights to HRD scholars.

В статье исследуются подходы к экономической сущности, характеристикам финансовой устойчивости организаций, сформированные в научных и практических исследованиях отечественных и зарубежных экономистов. В качестве основных критериев финансовой устойчивости кооперативных организаций в сложившихся условиях предлагается система абсолютных и относительных показателей, увязывающих обеспеченность собственными средствами, в т. ч. за счёт внутренних источников, финансовую гибкость (маневренность); финансовую независимость и постоянную платёжеспособность; эффективность деятельности организации потребительской кооперации. Традиционные показатели финансовой устойчивости дополнены индикаторами достаточности накопленной прибыли для формирования оборотных активов, а также рентабельности деятельности кооперативных организаций. Применение отдельных индикаторов позволило провести оценку финансовой устойчивости кооперативных организаций, по результатам которой финансовая устойчивость системы потребительской кооперации Новосибирской области определена как достаточная. В дальнейшем возможно развитие предлагаемой методики для комплексной оценки финансовой устойчивости потребительской кооперации на местном, региональном и федеральном уровнях.
This article examines the approaches to the economic essence, characteristics of the financial stability of organizations, formed in scientific and practical research of Russian and foreign economists. The authors consider as the main criteria of the cooperatives’ financial stability in the current conditions a system of absolute and relative indicators that link the availability of equity funds, incl. internal sources of funding, with financial flexibility of the consumer cooperation organization, its financial independence and constant solvency, the efficiency of the financial and economic activities. Traditional indicators of financial stability are supplemented by indicators of the adequacy of accumulated profit for the formation of current assets and the profitability of the organization. The use of particular indicators made it possible to assess the financial stability of cooperative organizations. According to the results of this assessment, the financial stability of the consumer cooperation system in the Novosibirsk Region is determined as sufficient. In the future, it is possible to develop the proposed methodology for a comprehensive assessment of the financial stability of consumer cooperation at the local, regional and federal levels.
