Prevention is the best form of treatment, not only for WCOVID -19, whose pandemic the world is currently facing but it is also COMMENTS true for many other diseases. The first two articles in this edition has to do with preventive measures against occurrence of diseases. The objective of the first study was to assess the effect of training on the knowledge and practice of occupational health and safety measures among poultry farm workers in Kaduna state. The result showed that there was a statistically significant difference when post intervention mean knowledge scores were compared between the study and control groups. The authors concluded that training on occupational health and safety led to an increase in knowledge and practice among poultry farm workers. It was therefore suggested that it is of utmost importance that periodic training and retraining exercises be provided. Another study related to prevention, investigated knowledge and perception towards childhood immunization among mothers receiving antenatal care (ANC) at the General Hospital Abraka, Delta State, Nigeria. The result of the study showed that there was good maternal knowledge and positive perception towards childhood immunization, although, there is need for appropriate education of mothers about vaccine-preventable diseases (VPDs) and vaccination schedule. Presence of depression among patients suffering from HIV is a common occurrence. It is projected that the level of depression among HIV/AIDS patients would increase to about 60% by the year 2030.An article in this edition, assessed the presence of depression and factors that contribute to the development of depression among HIV/AIDS patients attending HIV clinic in Murtala Mohammed Specialist Hospital, Kano. The conclusion from the results of the study was that management of HIV patients should include health education of the patients on ways of reducing the level of depression through elimination or modification of factors contributing to incidence of depression. It is essential that hospitals carry our clinical audit of various department in order to assess their performance over a giving period of time. This will provide information on the efficiency of the hospital in caring out its functions. Audit of clinical events helps the clinician to critically appraise the level of care rendered in a health system with the aim of improving the quality of care. A study from Ogbomoso audited the obstetrics practice in an hospital over a five-year period. Foetal outcome was significantly associated with mode of delivery and this study observed that Caesarean section had better outcome. Vitamin D, from various studies have been shown to affect pattern of many diseases in humans. Hypovitaminosis D in children is a common disorder in developing countries with a myriad of non-bony clinical manifestations. A study reported in this edition examined non-bony clinical manifestations of hypovitaminosis D in paediatric patients in Nigeria. Conclusively, this study observed that hypovitaminosis D has myriads of non-bony clinical presentations in children with the frequencies and severity more in females than males. Routine serum vitamin D3 measurements should be encouraged to rule out hypovitaminosis D in paediatric patients with unusual clinical presentations.

Adesola, Bowen University, Nigeria https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0062-6786 Oladipupo Ibukun Ojemola, Bowen University, Nigeria ABSTRACT The study assessed the use of electronic databases by the academic staff of Bowen University, Nigeria. Descriptive analysis including percentage and frequency count was used to analyze the data. From the total population of 500 academic staff, a sample of 75 was taken using the simple random sampling technique. Questionnaire was used as the instrument for data collection in this study. The questionnaire used was a closed ended or structured questionnaire divided into two sections. Section A captures the respondents’ biodata while Section B contained the structured items to achieve the research objectives. Five research questions were developed and answered by the study. The results show that the majority of the academic staff were aware of available e-databases and use them to improve teaching delivery and research output. Challenges encountered include inadequate time and an overwhelming workload. The study concludes by recommending a drastic reduction in workload, increasing bandwidth, hotspots, and entrenching customer-friendly policies in the library.

  • Private Universities in Nigeria – the Challenges Ahead
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Afe Babalola University Repository American Journal of Scientific Research ISSN 1450-223X Issue 7 (2010), pp.15-24 © EuroJournals Publishing, Inc. 2010 http://www.eurojournals.com/ajsr.htm Private Universities in Nigeria – the Challenges Ahead Ajadi, Timothy Olugbenga School of Education, National Open University of Nigeria E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Public universities had a near monopoly in providing university education in Nigeria until 1999. The market-friendly reforms initiated under the Structural Adjustment Programmes (SAP), the deregulation policies, and the financial crisis of the states created an encouraging environment for the emergence of the private universities in Nigeria. The legislative measures initiated to establish private universities in Nigeria also helped the entry of cross-border education, which is offered mainly through private providers. At present the private sector is a fast expanding segment of university education in Nigeria, although it still constitutes a small share of enrolment in university education. The paper attempts to analyse the growth, expansion, justification and the challenges of private universities in Nigeria. Keywords: Private universities, public universities, access, globalization, social demand, academic staff. Introduction In many African countries, the provision of University education by private institutions is a growing phenomenon when compared to other parts of the world; however, most African countries have been slow to expand the private sector in University education (Altbach, 1999). So also in Nigeria, the emergence of private universities as a business enterprise is an emerging phenomenon, a number of issues plague its development including legal status, quality assurance and the cost of service.
