Nigeria as a developing country is on the fast track to the attainment of development, or supposedly so. In this endeavour, priority is inevitably placed on science and technology as the only routes for the attainment of this dream. Such one track minded disposition is mouthed to the exclusion of other factors that contribute to the development of…[Read more]

The drama of the Niger Delta region has enjoyed robust scholarship. This essay interrogates J. P. Clark-Bekederemo’s drama against the cultural milieu of the region and tries to investigate the connections between the rich folklore of the area and the wealth of poetry and imagery contained in his drama. The essay investigates the terrain,…[Read more]

Patient-centered care evolves around proper coordination between healthcare providers in consultation with patient needs. Oftentimes, children play a passive role in their health care because of the controversy around age and lack of consensual abilities. The impact of engaging children early on to empower decision-making skills has been proven to…[Read more]

It is known that each natural number greater than 1 can be expressed as a unique product of prime numbers, namely the prime factorization. For example, 84=2×2×3×7. By summing up all prime factors of 84, we obtain 2+2+3+7=14. Since 14=2×7, we further sum up all prime factors of 14 to obtain 2+7=9. Since 9=3×3 and 3+3=6, we can continue the same…[Read more]

The spread of the Omicron variant this winter was met with renewed calls for the UK Government to fund the arts and culture through the Sars-CoV-2 pandemic and beyond. ‘We are in crisis mode’, Nicolas Hytner, former artistic director of the National Theatre, told the BBC’s Newsnight programme. ‘We need to see short-term finance, we need to see loa…[Read more]

A spectrophotometric procedure has been developed for determination of hydrocarbons, vegetable oils, animal fats, waxes, soaps, greases and related oily organic matter in aqueous phase. The water sample is acidified to a low pH (less than or equal to 2) and extracted with trichloroethane (methyl chloroform). Under controlled conditions, the oil…[Read more]

A spectrophotometric procedure has been developed for determination of oil and grease in aqueous phase. The water sample is acidified to a low pH (less than or equal to 2) and extracted with 1,1,2-trichloro-l,2,2-trifluoroethane (Freon 113, or CFC 113). Under controlled conditions, the oil and grease are extractable into a selected organic…[Read more]
