This is owing to the fact that it is linked to the accuracy of published accounting reports. According to the academic literature, earnings management appears to be widespread among publicly traded firms. In response to calls for a higher proportion and composition of independent directors on boards and for the board of directors to be more financially sophisticated, the paper examined the effect of board composition on earnings management of listed non-financial firms in Nigeria from 2009 to 2018. Secondary data was used and extracted from various annual financial reports of the selected firms. The population for the study consisted of 117 listed non-financial firms in Nigeria as at December, 2018. This study used purposive sampling technique where 20 firms, whose data were accessible and available within the sample period of 2009 to 2018 were selected, being the most recent ten years within which the second corporate governance codes for quoted firms was introduced as a replacement to the 2003 SEC code.

  • Urinary Schistosomiasis Among Vulnerable Children in A
    Uchendu et al. BMC Infectious Diseases (2017) 17:487 DOI 10.1186/s12879-017-2591-6 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Urinary schistosomiasis among vulnerable children in a rehabilitation home in Ibadan, Oyo state, Nigeria Obioma Uchendu1,2* , Victoria Oladoyin2, Michael Idowu1, Oluwapelumi Adeyera1, Oluwatosin Olabisi2, Oluwafisayomi Oluwatosin2 and Gbemisola Leigh2 Abstract Background: Schistosomiasis is a disease of public health importance with long term complications mostly common among children, rural dwellers, poor and migrant workers. Studies have not documented the burden among migrant workers and their families. The study aimed to describe the burden of schistosomiasis and demographic characteristics among children of migrant workers residing in a rehabilitation home in Ibadan, Nigeria. Methods: A cross-sectional study using sixty six children, who were tested following complaints of haematuria by six of them. An interviewer-administered questionnaire was used to collect information on demographic and environmental characteristics of the children and urine microscopy, was conducted. Data was analysed using descriptive statistics and correlation. Statistical significance was set at 5%. Results: Mean age of respondents was 11.8 ± 4.0 years and 57.6% were males. The prevalence of schistosomiasis was 19.7% with preponderance among males (64.3%) and children aged 12 years and above (71.4%); 85.7% of infected children were from Kwara State; 78.6% waded in water body and 92.9% had red blood cells and pus cells on urine microscopy. Conclusions: The burden of schistosomiasis is high among children of migrant workers and they serve as reservoirs for transmission of the disease. Government needs to work synergistically with NGOs, FBOs and other partners to achieve schistosomiasis prevention and control among this particular group.

  • Petrographic Study and Geochemical Analysis of Basement Rocks in Federal University Gusau and Its Environs, Zamfara State, Northwestern Nigeria Chinwuko, A
    ogy eol & G OPEN ACCESS Freely available online G e f o o p l h a y s n r i c u Journal of Geology & Geophysics s o J ISSN: 2381-8719 Research Article Petrographic Study and Geochemical Analysis of Basement Rocks in Federal University Gusau and Its Environs, Zamfara State, Northwestern Nigeria Chinwuko, A. I., Danbatta, U. A., Ovwasa, M. O., Shaibu, I., and Shuaibu, A. M. Department of Geological Sciences, Federal University Gusau, Zamfara State, Nigeria ABSTRACT Petrographic and geochemical analysis of basement rocks in Federal University Gusau and its environs, Zamfara State, Northwestern Nigeria were carried out in order to unveil the major rock forming minerals as well as the textural relationships composition within the rock. The identified rock unit is granite and they are mainly whitish- grey in colour, with the majority of them having porphyritic-coarse-grained texture and minor with fine-grained texture. The light coloured crystals in hand specimens are the felsic minerals mainly quartz, and feldspars while the grey-dark crystals are the mafic minerals like the biotite-mica. The result of the thin section analysis depicts that the minerals present within the rock samples in the area: quartz (40%), orthoclase (40%) and biotite (20%). These identified minerals are classified as the major rock forming silicate minerals. The geochemical analysis result shows that the rocks are characterized by high percentage of quartz (SiO2) in the range of 77.4-98.2 wt% with an average of 84.87 wt%; subordinate amounts of hematite (Fe2O3) with an average concentration of 4.08 wt% as well as low concentration of K2O, CaO, TiO2, V2O5, MnO, NiO, CuO, ZnO, RuO2, In2O3 and other minor constituent oxides.
