Published: August 2024

The purpose of this study was to look at gender stereotypes as determinants factors of female child education in the Ogoja Education Zone of Cross River State. Three research questions were posed, which were translated into three hypotheses. A literature review was conducted depending on the variables being studied. A survey-based research design was used. A sample of female staff members from ten (10) public secondary schools in the education zone were chosen using a simple random selection technique. A 15 items structured questionnaire was designed for data collection. The reliability index of the instrument ranges from alpha coefficients of 0.64 (for societal factors), 0.73 (for socio-cultural factors); and 0.75 (for the religious factors) was calculated. The data was analysed using the Independent t-test statistical method to evaluate the hypotheses at the 0.05 level of significance. The findings demonstrated that socio-cultural, religious, and societal factors had a substantial impact on the education of girl children in the research area. Based on these findings, it was urged, among other things, that some societies avoid giving preferential treatment to male children; that the government educate parents on the significance of education for both boys and girls; and that a campaign be launched against early marriage.

The assessment of heavy metals in the tissues of prawns is essential to understand the extent of contamination and potential health risk in human and the aquatic ecosystem. The study aimed to determine the concentration levels of iron, chromium, lead and cadmium in the tissues of Macrobrachium vollenhovenii of the lower Cross River System comparing it with the permissible consumption limits of Federal Ministry of Environment (FMENV) and the World Health Organization (WHO). Samples of the prawn were collected from artisanal fishermen on landing between November, 2022 and January, 2023. Collected samples were placed on ice and transported to the laboratory for Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry analysis. The prawn samples had a total length and weight of 18.0cm – 24.0cm and 98.42g – 248.64g, respectively. The results revealed that the toxicity levels of heavy metals in the tissues of M. vollenhovenii ranged as follows: Fe: 1.041 - 2.082mg/kg; Pb: 0.173 - 0.618mg/kg; Cd: 0.114 - 0.242mg/kg; Cr: 0.007 - 0.038mg/kg. The results from the analysis indicated that, Fe had the highest concentration, followed by Pb, Cd and least was Cr. The result revealed that, there was no statistically significant difference in the Lead levels (p=0.266) and chromium levels (p=0.882) across the months (NOV-JAN). There was statistically significant increase in the Iron levels across the months (NOV-JAN) (p=0.037). There was statistically significant decrease in the cadmium levels across the months (NOV-JAN) (p=0.022). Therefore, this study presents valuable information about heavy metals bioaccumulation in a commercially important prawn caught from the lower Cross River which is consumed by locals in the region. Also the evaluation of possible risks on health associated with contaminated prawn consumption on human is clear. Except for Cr, the heavy metal concentrations in the prawn samples analyzed were above the prescribed limits set by various authorities (WHO/FMENV). The result of this study calls for a close monitoring of anthropogenic activities of the area for safety in seafood consumption by human.

BACKGROUND: Continuing professional development (CPD) is a systematic and ongoing process of education undertaken by health professionals to maintain up-to-date knowledge and development skills.
OBJECTIVE: To assess the level of willingness of Radiographers to undertake continuing professional development in Nigeria.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A convenience sampling technique was adopted for the study. A self-administered and well-structured questionnaire consisting 21 items with 3 sections; A, B and C was developed. Section A was on the socio-demographic data of the respondents with 7 items. Section B had 12 items that elicited responses on the level of willingness and section C with 2 items that focused on suggestions to encourage CPD. These were distributed online and offline to Radiographers in Nigeria. A total of 100 respondents were recruited for the study: 30 respondents were offline and the remaining 70 via the online route. Across the six geopolitical zones of Nigeria, 30 respondents were gotten from the South-South, 18 from the South-East, 20 from the South-West, 10 from the North-West, 10 from the North-East, and 12 from North-Central. Data was analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25.0 at a p-value of ≥ 0.05. Statistics used were descriptive statistics which included charts and tables, inferential statistics which include Kruskal-Wallis Test which was used to test for differences in level of willingness across the 6 geopolitical zones. Cochran’s Q test was used to compare the willingness simultaneously. A correlation test using Spearman’s rho was used to assess the relationship between years of working experience and level of willingness. A Chi-square analysis was also used to check for association.
RESULTS: A total of 84 respondents (84%) willingly participated in continuing professional development programme out of the 100 participants used in this study. There was no significant difference in the level of willingness across the six geo-political zones of Nigeria. Lack of finance (41%) and location of programmes (27%) were observed to be the major barriers to continuing professional development. There was also a significant positive relationship between years of working experience and willingness to participate in Continuing Professional Development programmes. A majority (39%) suggested that the cost of the programmes be reduced and 21% suggested the programmes be decentralized.
CONCLUSION: The study concluded that there is a high level of willingness of graduate Radiographers to undertake continuing professional development in Nigeria. However, the high cost of training and the location of the training programmes are the major barriers.

Entrepreneurial competency consists of specific skills, knowledge and abilities require by entrepreneur to start and manage an enterprise successfully. It consists of both the technical and management components. The skills and knowledge constitute the technical or the hardware component of entrepreneurial competency while management component could be described as the software aspect of entrepreneurial competency needed by the entrepreneur to function well in hardware functions. To ensure entrepreneurial success, entrepreneur must acquire the needed competencies which could be through training, education or hands-on experience. The purpose of this paper is carry out conceptual and empirical review on entrepreneurial competency and entrepreneurial success to provide a deeper understanding of the concepts and provide research direction to researchers most especially at this time of global inflation when small and medium businesses are finding it difficult to survive. Therefore, the paper provides a detailed review of the concepts of entrepreneurial competency and entrepreneurial success. Also, empirical review on the effect of entrepreneurial competency on entrepreneurial success and four measures of success namely profitability, sales growth, customer satisfaction and competitiveness are presented in this paper. The paper recommends that researchers should focus more attention on studying various dimensions of entrepreneurial competency to examine their effects on both financial and non financial measures of entrepreneurial success.

The capabilities of corn-silk doped molecularly imprinted polymer (CSDMIP) and its non-imprinted counterpart (CSDNIP), prepared using styrene as a functional monomer, in the adsorption of crystal violet (CV) dye were tested. The polymers were characterized by X-ray diffractometry (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Thermogravimetry analysis (TGA) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The adsorbent potency in the dye removal was investigated by varying the effect of pH, time, dye concentration and temperature. A good removal efficiency of CV in the range of 95-99% was achieved for the imprinted polymer. 2 Correlation coefficient R value was the criterion in order to select the best kinetic and isothermal models. Pseudo-second-order model displayed a better fitness for kinetics data compared to the Elovich, Weber-Morris and pseudo-first order models. Likewise, Freundlich isothermal model depicted a better fit for the adsorption 2 data for CV dye, demonstrating R values of 0.9998 and 0.9999 for both CSDMIP and CSDNIP, respectively. The adsorption process was described as spontaneous and exothermic attributable to the negative o o thermodynamic parametrical values of DG and DH . In comparison to other selected adsorbents, CSDMIP -1 was found more efficient with Langmuir adsorption capacity of 181.82 mgg . In addition, the CSDMIP had an interestingly high reusability potential of ˃97% up to the sixth cycle. Computational study employed to validate the experimental analysis, gave a good result. Applicability of the developed adsorbent in real textile wastewater gave over 83% efficiency, suggestive of a promising adsorbent for the sequestration of CV from solution.

This article explores the changes currently underway in the field of mental health. We historically explore the metamorphoses since the second half of the 20th century regarding a new conception of mental disorders. Thus, we come back to the transformation of patient status induced by these new approaches. These new paradigms influence both the legal tool and the practices of care and research. In this way, we question this evolution in order to understand what it could tend towards in the future. Finally, to support these many changes which tend towards a balance between users and professionals, we propose to think about the conception of a mixed knowledge that can be used by both professionals and users.
