Abstract:
Purpose: This study was conducted to determine the level of awareness of open access electronic resources (OAER) by scientists in agricultural research institutes in Edo State, South – South geopolitical zone of Nigeria.Methodology: Descriptive survey research design was adopted. One hundred and fifty research scientists in agricultural research institutes in Edo (70 from Rubber Research Institute of Nigeria and 80 from Nigerian Institute For Oil Palm Research) constituted the population for the study. Questionnaire was used as instrument for data collection. Two research questions guided the study.Findings: The result of the study showed that scientists in agricultural research institutes in Edo state are fully aware of the existence of open access electronic resources but yet have greater access to traditional library materials than electronic journals and books for their research work.Implication: The study implies that the scientists though fully aware of existence of open access electronic resources but have challenges that compeled them to still access traditional library materials for their research work.Recommendation: It is recommended that the management of the two agricultural research institutes in Edo State should provide functional Internet facilities for the scientists and organize regular workshops and seminars aimed at informing their scientists on the relevance and use of open access electronic resources.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The coastal area of the Niger Delta is the home to oil explorations and exploitations in Nigeria. Oil spill incidents are common along the Nigeria. The main sources of oil spill on the Niger Delta are: vandalisation of the oil pipelines by the local inhabitants; ageing of the pipelines; oil blow outs from the flow stations; cleaning of oil tankers on the high sea and disposal of used oil into the drains by the road side mechanics. By far the most serious source of oil spill is through the vandalisation of pipelines either as a result of civil disaffection with the political process or as a criminal activity. To reduce the rate of oil incidents along the Nigerian Coast particularly as a result of vandalisation, the Federal Government through an act of the National Assembly created the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC). Part of the responsibilities of the commission is to develop a master plan for the development of the Niger Delta, provide infrastructure and create an enabling environment for industrialisation and employment. There are also several other laws dealing with issues related to oil pollution in the environment. Also, standards for the development of the environmental sensitivity index maps for the coast of Nigeria have been developed by the Environmental Systems Research institute (ESRI). These standards are to be used by all the oil companies to prepare ESI maps for their areas of operations in Nigeria. Furthermore, apart from the mechanical and chemical oil spill cleaning methods that have been used in managing oil spill problems, oil spill models have on several occasions being used to manage oil spills on the Nigerian Coast. A number of Federal and state agencies deal with the problems of oil spill in Nigeria. The agencies include: the Department of Petroleum Resources (DPR), the Federal Ministry of Environment, the State Ministries of Environment and the National Maritime Authority. There is also the “Clean Nigeria Associates” which is an umbrella through which the Oil companies tackle major oil spills. There is a need to create serious awareness among the populace on the implications of oil spill incidents on the environment. Governments must assist the rural communities in claiming their rights on oil spills and ensure that digital ESI maps are readily available for managing oil spill maps. Government should have strict rules for local oil tankers that would ply our coastal and inland waters as a result of the new cabotage law that is just being passed into law in the country.

Abstract:
This study aims at examining and mapping the spatiotemporal distribution of meningitis epidemic, in relation to climate variability, using GIS and Remote Sensing techniques. Using the northern part of Nigeria as a case study, data on meningitis epidemic were obtained from the archive of National Bureau of Statistics, Nigeria for the periods between 1998 and 2013. The data were updated with collection from Nigeria Demographic and Health Survey (NDHS). Also, Nigerian Ministry of Health has compiled consistent statistics on meningitis incidence for the periods. A meningitis distribution map was derived from an environmentally-driven form of predicted probability of epidemic experience as it is in International Research Institute for Climate and Society (IRI) Database. The results showed that Meningitis Epidemic is very high during months with low rainfall. Thus, seasonality of rainfall and temperature are important determinants of Meningitis Epidemic incidence in the Northern part of Nigeria. Therefore, it can be confirmed, as cited in some literatures, that the distribution of the epidemics has a strong association with the environment, especially climate variability. Although meningitis surveillance systems in Nigeria have improved, they still fall short of the sensitivity required to demonstrate incidence changes in vaccinated and non-vaccinated cohorts and complementary approaches may be needed to demonstrate the impact of the vaccines. There is however, a need for a new technology and innovation like an integrated GIS, and other environmental modeling system, to allow health practitioners as well as policy makers, for better management, productivity and profitability.

Abstract:
The massive exploration and production well drillings in Nigerian oilfield indicate the demand for drilling fluid supplements such as baryte, in managing over-pressured formations and preventing hazardous blowouts. The underdevelopment of Nigerian solid minerals has created a wide gap between the demand and supply of the local resource, whereas there exist some assertions that the Nigerian baryte quality is below the American Petroleum Institute, API, standard. This study aimed at testing and evaluating qualitatively, based on API standards, some baryte ores from the Benue area, Nigeria, to establish their usefulness or otherwise in oilfield drilling operations. General field studies and sampling with laboratory studies were done including flame tests, X-ray Diffraction and X-ray fluorescence, to confirm mineralogy and chemical compositions of the barytes respectively and very importantly, the API tests prescribed for drilling grade barytes were carried out. The results showed impressive quality barytes with a specific gravity range from 4.10 to 4.49 and concentration of alkaline earth metals as calcium, Ca, 20mg/kg to 48mg/kg, particle sizes processed within API standard requirement, and the weight percentage of BaSO4 composition of the ores ranged from 93.55% to 99.61%. There were no significant impurities of threat such as carbonates, iron ores, silicates and sulphides. The estimation of reserves and proper development of the resource is highly recommended as the quantity and quality might enhance the sustainability of local drilling grade baryte supply and save Nigeria the current huge capital flight and other plights

Abstract:
Abstract Although the level of awareness of HIV has significantly improved over the past decade following the coordinated activities of the National Agency for the Control of AIDS (NACA), Nigeria still remains one of the most burdened countries in the world with about 3 million people living with HIV. Increasing enlightenment campaigns on HIV and AIDS have not been able to achieve remarkable behaviour change as a result of the non-use of appropriate nomenclatures. Given the low literacy rate of Nigerians in English (about 61% based on UNESCO Institute for Statistics), communication strategies can only be effective when indigenous Nigerian languages have standardised and appropriate nomenclatures for HIV and AIDS. This study argues that the use of appropriate terms in the local languages in referring to HIV and AIDS is capable of reducing the stigmatisation and discrimination of people living with HIV and AIDS, and consequently reduce the spread of HIV through behaviour change. Accordingly, the study embarks on the lexical modernisation of HIV and AIDS nomenclatures in Nigeria’s three major languages (i.e. Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba) in line with current developments around the world in the management of the two health conditions.

Abstract:
The genus Helicotylenchus contains cosmopolitan, ubiquitous plant-parasitic nematodes with some species capable of causing significant economic damage to agricultural crops. Accurate species identification in this genus is essential in recognizing the damaging species and establishing effective management options. In a study on cocoa plantations in Nigeria, two species of spiral nematodes were found in high numbers from soil samples obtained from a six-decade old cocoa plantation at the Cocoa Research Institute of Nigeria. An integrated approach involving a combination of morphology, morphometrics, and molecular tools was used to identify the nematode species. Morphological data indicate the presence of both H. multicinctus and H. dihystera. There is congruence in the morphological and molecular data obtained for H. multicinctus. However, phylogenetic analysis of the 28S rDNA expansion segment revealed a high variability in the sequences of the Nigerian population of H. dihystera, suggesting the need for a careful appraisal and more comparative studies.

Abstract:
Purpose This paper aims to assess the level of awareness of quantity surveyors in material management and their key roles in waste minimization during the post-contract stage of the project with a view of achieving value for money in their roles. Design/methodology/approach This involves administering a questionnaire survey to registered members of the Nigerian Institute of Quantity Surveyors, the only recognized professional body of quantity surveyors in Nigeria, within Lagos state. The empirical questionnaire survey succeeds a literature review that isolates the key strategies used by quantity surveyors in material management and waste minimization at the post-contract stage. The validity of the questionnaire was carried out by two experienced construction industry researchers and three experienced professional quantity surveyors to ensure that the questionnaire was not ambiguous and that it consists of the right questions in tandem with the research. The respondents were grouped into consultant’s QS and contractor’s QS. Findings Key roles of quantity surveyors during the material management process are proper material storage, and material inventory and accounting are the most important material management and waste minimization practices during the institute stage. It revealed that there is a lack of material waste documentation practices during the construction stage. In addition, there is no statistically significant difference in the responses of the two groups. This may be because there is no clear compartmentalization between the practices of the two groups. In addition, these two groups had the same education training, as there is no difference between the educational training of the consultant’s QS and contractor’s QS. Originality/value This study assessed the quantity surveyors’ roles with regard to material management and waste minimization. It would add to the scanty research work in this area. The study has also successfully revealed the strategies that are to be adopted by the quantity surveyors to achieve value for money during the post-contract stage.

Abstract:
This paper focuses on challenges of prison farm management in Nigeria. The empirical results are based on a qualitative and quantitative survey of 54 inmates and 17 prison officers in Ibite-Olo and Ozalla prison farms in Enugu and Edo States of Nigeria respectively. The findings show that the prison farms under study had collaboration with partner agencies such as the federal ministry of agriculture (57.9%), agricultural extension agents (47.4%), agricultural research institutes (42.1%) and NGOs (36.8%), among others. The necessary support from partner agencies covered the following: financial aid (78.9%) and sales/maintenance of farm machinery and implements (68.4%). Furthermore, inmates and prison officers stated the challenges hindering effective running of prison farms’ agricultural activities, including: inadequate funding, lack of physical infrastructure, inadequate farm equipment and poor storage facilities. The findings support the conclusion that the Nigerian Prison Service should make an upward review in its budgetary allocation to prison farms to enhance service delivery and inmate reformation, alongside provision of adequate infrastructure, equipment and farm inputs.

Abstract:
e22235 Background: AP unlike HTLV-I associated diseases arrived late in parts of Africa, including Nigeria, where retroviral research was already ongoing in collaboration with the US National Cancer Institute (USNCI), thus providing unique preventive interventional opportunity. A World Health Organization sponsored study of the role of sexual behavior in retroviral transmission in Nigeria was performed 1985–86. Methods: Using an ELISA and an investigational Western blot (IWB) assay, a small survey of the seroprevalence rate (SPR%) of HTLV-I and HIV was conducted in 3 regions of the country among 5 population groups with differing sexual behaviors: normal blood donors (NBD), female commercial sex workers (FCSW), sexually transmitted diseases patients, and religious male/female celibates. 204 samples were re-tested with recombinant enhanced “Singapore” HIV-1/2 WB (SWB) in 1994, in view of earlier HIV-1 IWB negativity. All serological tests were done at USNCI. Results: HTLV-I SPR varied by region and lifestyle, highest in eastern region (ER) (p=0.0000095), FCSW of ER (p=0.0006), and frequency of male heterosexual activity (p=0.024). HIV-1 was undetectable by IWB, while SWB revealed 2/204 HIV-1+ for countrywide SPR: ∼1.0; Western NBD: 1/100 (1.0); Western/Northern NBD: 1/184 (0.54): non-high risk Nigerians: 2/237 (0.84); FCSW: 0/46; celibates: 0/71, adult general Nigerian population (AGNP): ∼0.5–1.0, and translating to (∼240–480)x103 HIV-1+ AGNP. Assuming 20 HIV-1+ = 1 case of AIDS death, SWB- determined SPR predicted (∼12–24)×103 AIDS deaths among 48×106 AGNP in 1985–86, ∼5 of (2.4- 4.8)×103 (<0.2%) of whom presented with clinical AIDS features (CAF) at Nigeria's premier health institution (NPHI). Conclusions: In 1985–86, when patients with CAF rarely presented at NPHI and HIV-1 SPR was ≤1.0 in AGNP and FCSW, Nigerian health authority was advised on AP risk, unlike Uganda where it arrived unanticipated. Reports of SPR of 7.7 and 60.0 in AGNP and FCSW in 1996–2000 contrast against contemporary Ugandan SPR (14.0 down to 6.1) and Senegalese (0.4 up to 0.9), probably resulting from varying knowledge gap and angst-related inertia, illustrating mixed fortunes of AP in Africa, transcontinental variation in AP control capability, and providing lessons for the management of future public health challenges.

Abstract:
This study aimed to examine the suitability and challenges of implementing in a Nigerian tertiary mental health facility the guidelines for the management of schizophrenia produced by the UK National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE). The study was based on a group discussion at the Psychiatric Hospital, Yaba, Lagos. A panel of ten individuals (consultants, senior registrars, senior psychologists and senior social workers and nurses) discussed the guidelines, having been given ample time to study the document. Five patients were also interviewed. Some of the recommendations of the NICE guidelines are already being practised in the hospital to various extents. Full implementation would be hampered by a shortage of human resources and financial constraints. The guidelines need to factor in sociocultural differences. The NICE guidelines with modifications are suitable for use in a Nigerian setting.

Abstract:
This study investigates how knowledge is transferred in the Nigerian public service, the features of its bureaucratic culture, as well as, the effects that this culture has on knowledge transfer. The motivation to undertake this study is borne out of the identified gap in the literature, which bothers on the dearth of studies in the area of knowledge transfer, as well as, the specific features inherent in that of the Nigerian public service bureaucratic culture. Qualitative and quantitative research methods (i.e. semi-structured interviews and survey) are combined in gathering data for this study. Both the interviews and survey sample frames undertaken with key players of the public service covering the three cadres, (senior, and junior and management/directorate staff), were representative of all the aspects of the public service covered. Seven ministries out of a total of seventeen in the Bayelsa state public service forms the sample frame used for this research The overall empirical results indicate that there is knowledge transfer in the Nigerian public service in view of the available mechanisms used for the transfer of knowledge. In addition, the Nigerian bureaucratic culture has more negative effects than positive on knowledge transfer. The application of Hofstede’s theory reveals a high level of inequality, masculinity and autocracy as features of the Nigerian public service bureaucratic culture. The study also reveals that there is the use of very high sounding military fashion language in the public service, due to the long period of military rule. This research finds that there is reasonable awareness amongst public servants about knowledge and its sources that is needed to run the public service, but that access to knowledge, particularly tacit knowledge by authorised staff is difficult. Public servants agree that certain kind of knowledge transfer activities persist, although the terminology is relatively new to Nigeria. They agree that under the current democratic environment in which the public service operates, government should make concerted efforts to establish a knowledge transfer culture so as to make knowledge readily available. It recommends the entrenchment of a leaning, training and collaborative culture, as well as, the de-emphasising of hierarchy and creation of a more flexible public service. The contribution of this study to knowledge is in the area of putting in place a framework for the effective implementation of knowledge management practice (transfer) in the Nigerian public service.

Abstract:
This research is a case study of a public body - a UK HE institution - to reveal aspects of a cycle of 'change that did not stick' and to reveal the power-base and control aspects of change, organisation and management. This institution set about to change its operation to a democratic, matrix-style of organisation. It then reversed that change and in four years returned to something like its former structure. The people at the top - the 'directorate' - arrived and moved on but the staff remained. Eleven of the staff, all middle managers, talked about the events and their interpretations of this change. Their perspective is from outside senior management, yet closer to those engaged in the day-to-day operations of the institution. The interviewees told what happened - from the inside. Their 'voices' are the 'data 1 and the most important part of the story. They provide a 'text', which is supported by a background of internal official documents and external documents during the period. The cycle of organisational change, seen through the eyes of the 'affected 1 , is presented as a text, a social document, encasing and enveloping their accounts and stories with the intention of preserving the integrity of the evidence. Various interpretative approaches are followed: Critical Theory, philosophy, culture together with the national Higher Education context and a 'casestudy' of another HE institution as corroborative background. The casestudy, prompted by the general approach of the respondents, is used as a spring-board for reflections on management and governance.

Abstract:
Some developing nations struggle with a diminishing manufacturing output market share because of a lack of appropriate procurement strategies. The purpose of this single case study was to explore the procurement strategies that managers successfully developed and deployed to improve company performance. The strategic alignment model was the conceptual framework for the study. Data were collected through semistructured interviews of 6 members of a Nigerian ceramics manufacturing company, as well as from a review of publicly available documents related to the performance of the company. A thematic analysis of the data was conducted to identify codes, extract subthemes and themes from the codes, and develop a thematic map. The 5 themes that emerged from data analysis included the procurement strategies needed for cross-functional collaboration, emergencies and downturns, alternatives and competition, applications of information technologies in procurement functions, and control of stock level and vendors' performance. The results of the data analysis confirmed empirical evidence that linked strategic procurement alignment to organizational performance. The implementation of the findings of this study may be beneficial to individuals, communities, organizations, institutions, cultures, and society through employment creation, costs savings, waste reduction, value creation, crime reduction, and local development.

Abstract:
Nigerian women have become more integrated into the workforce, but this integration has led to conflicts between work and family responsibilities. The purpose of this phenomenological study was to explore the lived experiences of Nigerian women regarding challenges and strategies in management and leadership positions in relation to their domestic lives and responsibilities. Liberal and social feminist theory and gendered leadership theory were used as the conceptual framework of the study. The findings of this study came from data obtained from semistructured interviews with 15 Nigerian women in leadership and management positions regarding their perceptions and lived experiences of balancing work and family responsibilities. The data analysis consisted of using a modified Van Kaam process, which resulted in 7 themes including multiple roles make balance difficult, supportive husband as a key to balance, and the role of God in supporting and guiding the women. The findings of this study could contribute to positive social change by providing necessary information regarding how Nigerian women perceive their roles in management and leadership positions as they grapple with the challenges of pursuing a career and maintaining their families, leading to more informed organizations and policymakers. This study includes findings about how women perform and are evaluated as managers, which could eventually influence hiring practices by highlighting the barriers and strategies to overcome them as experienced by Nigerian women in management positions.

Biomedical research is enjoying its golden era. It promises improvements to human health in the near future. The field is witnessing a brisk inflow of human and financial capital. In an attempt to capitalize on this growth, biomedical research centers are being established worldwide. There is relatively little literature to explain how biomedical research institutes become successful. This thesis analyzes the founding and growth of the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research, a leading not-for-profit biomedical research institute located in Cambridge, Massachusetts, in an attempt to identify its critical success factors. The Whitehead Institute was founded in 1982 with a generous philanthropic donation. It is affiliated with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). The Whitehead Institute has since enjoyed a symbiotic and productive relationship with MIT through their joint teaching, research, and administrative activities. The Whitehead Institute is renowned for its research in a number of biological areas, including the sequencing of the human genome, cancer biology, and developmental biology. The success of the Whitehead Institute is remarkable because of its relatively small size and short history. Some of the critical success factors of the Whitehead Institute include: quality scientists, Institute endowments, affiliation to a top university, sound scientific decisions, location in a thriving biomedical research hub, and a collegial and family-like culture. These success factors are complementary to one another. In the concluding chapter, the thesis addresses the challenges confronting the Whitehead Institute, and postulates the feasibility of transplanting the 'Whitehead Model' elsewhere.

Abstract:
Nigeria ranks among notable global exporters of crude oil. However, the refineries positioned for providing finished petroleum products have not met this obligation. Plant reliability is a major crisis amidst rising demands for petroleum products. Rotating equipment availability, a critical constituent of a petrochemical plant, is vital to ensuring refinery reliability. The aim of this research is to: 1. Investigate and identify the causes of rotating equipment failures in Nigerian refineries while also identifying shortcomings in the implementation of current maintenance procedures. 2. Propose a procedure to Manage Rotating Equipment Maintenance Strategy (MREMS) in the Nigerian refineries. 3. Develop a new Internal Job Card system for the rotating equipment maintenance departments of the Nigerian refineries. 4. Propose a model Framework and Approach for Training and People Development (FATPD) amongst other recommendations to optimize rotating equipment maintenance management in the Nigerian refineries. The research evolved around a case study of four (4) petrochemical industries. This was embarked upon to present empirical data on rotating equipment maintenance management practices. Also, survey questionnaires and interviews were adopted to complement data gathering. The research presents five (5) core empirical findings. Firstly, minimal maintenance activity takes place outside scheduled turn around maintenance leading to excessive corrective maintenance actions in Nigerian refineries. Secondly, job card system in the rotating departments of the Nigerian refineries is not efficient. Thirdly, core skill and competence of bottom level maintenance workforce was discovered to be inadequate. Fourthly, computer maintenance management system or computer support structures to optimize rotating equipment maintenance in Nigerian refineries have little or zero presence. Lastly, rotating equipment maintenance management practices in Sasol proves rewarding with the integration of condition monitoring into maintenance program. Computer supports have also been vital to achieving commendable equipment availability. Management commitment, driven by customer focus, ensures that plant reliability is restored on schedule. A procedure to Manage Rotating Equipment Maintenance Strategy (MREMS) was developed for the Nigerian refineries. This is expected to tackle the issue of low availability of rotating equipment maintenance and also assist maintenance personnel to review or evolve a more specific equipment maintenance strategy based on reliability-centred maintenance principle of condition-based maintenance. A new Internal Job card is also presented in this dissertation. It would also serve to support the MREMS procedure. The proposed Framework and Approach for Training and People Development (FATDP) have a huge potential to address skills and competency deficiencies, particularly, for bottom level maintenance personnel at the Nigerian refineries. Recommendations on the adoption and implementation of MREMS procedure, Internal Job card and FATDP were also presented in this dissertation.

Abstract:
The acceptance and wide adoption of relationship management strategies stem from the strategic competitive advantage(s) associated with an excellent customer-bank relationship. Similarly, its acceptance by big organisations and its subsequent performance in those organisations from developed nations results in its proliferation to other parts of the world. Similarly, due to perceived novelty of Western-based business theories in other parts of the world, organisations in developing countries adopt relationship management strategies with less concern on how economic and systematic differences could affect their effectiveness. Although few studies have highlighted this challenge, however, they are largely conceptual. Recent studies argue for the need to explore the impact of external environment on relationship management in the retail-banking context in an environment where face-to-face interactions dominate the business interaction. In an attempt to fill this gap, the researcher conducts a qualitative case study that draws on twenty-nine semi-structured interviews from three Nigerian banks. The researcher also reviewed banks' documents and secondary data on Nigeria/Sub-Saharan African banks based on the view that perception of relationship management by actors and implementers of the strategy affects its implementation, performance and success. Specifically, the research examines how managers perceive and implement customer relationship management, how external variables affect relationship development and management in the retail-banking sector, as well as how banks engage the use of technology in relationship management. The researcher uses within and cross-case analysis during data analysis. At data analysis stage, after initial pilot study, themes that emerged have been used to address the research questions. In the end, the study argues that external environment, specifically institutional frames, affects the effectiveness of relationship management in non-Western culture. Specifically, the study shows that in a bottom of the pyramid market, interpersonal relationship influences the effectiveness of relationship marketing approach of a bank, as banks conceptualise interpersonal relationship as an important instrument in marketing to customers. Lack of strong institutions and vital infrastructure results in weak system-based-trust, and thus interpersonal trust influences relationship initiation and management strategy of the banks, as customers accord value to effective trust – trust at a personal level. Further contribution shows how interpersonal relationship was supported by the presence of religious, racial and ethnic affiliation that encourage relationship development and management. Reflection of religious and ethnic affiliation through religious dress, religious greetings, language and tribal affiliation create identity relations and facilitate relationship initiation and development between boundary spanning elements and customers in the Nigerian retail-banking context. As weak system-based-trust affects bank-customer communication dimension, hence customer relationship management at the customer-facing level, the impact of interpersonal relationship and hence religious and ethnic affiliation in trust formation become strong. Thus, the study extends the impact of religion and ethnicity to non-Western context and the influence of religion and ethnic affiliation to conventional bank relationship literature. Based on these findings, the study recommends developing strategies that will negate and reduce the cost effect of high present of face-face-face interaction in the Nigerian retail-banking context, such as using incentives to promote the use of technology-enabled service delivery channels that link customers directly with the bank. Promotion of such channels may reduce high dependent on interpersonal channels and strengthen the link between banks and their customers. Furthermore, the study recommends the development of policies that will reduce the effect of risk associated with technology-enabled channels usage and hence excellent customer bank relationship. Consequently, the study recommends further study on the effectiveness of relationship marketing in mobile money (a form of banking method for retail customers in Sub-Saharan Africa), in relation to micro and small businesses that constitute significant percentage of retail banking customers in Nigeria.
