Safety communication is a very critical component of safety management. It involves the conveying of safety messages to selected target audiences with the aim of informing them about associated risks to their job functions. To effectively address the challenge of properly informing employees within the workplace, employers have adopted various forms of techniques including but not limited to; safety inductions, formal training, signage, posters, face-to-face communication and emails, and othe...

The composition and distribution of flora species in wetlands are dependent upon several environmental variables and one of such is seasonality regimes. Seasonal gradients exert profound influence on seedling establishment, regeneration and reproduction of plant species. To this end, rural and urban wetlands were studied to assess the influence of seasonality gradients on phytodiversity richness. A ten 5m×5m quadrat was used to sample the vegetation for density of species with spacing at r...
Assessment of macrophyte abundance and water quality of three impacted inlet streams along Ikpa River Basin were investigated. A 5m x 5m quadrat through systematic sampling was used to sample the vegetation for density and frequency of species. Sediment and water samples were collected and analyzed using standard methods. From the results obtained, a total of 23 macrophyte species from 17 families were encountered. Stream 1 (Ntak Inyang 1) had 7 species, stream 2 (Ntak Inyang 2) had 13 specie...
Nutrient and waste inputs into wetlands have dire consequences on both soil and water quality and by extension dependent aquatic flora and fauna. Within this purview, heavy metal contamination was assessed in a rural and urban wetland in Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria. Soil samples were analyzed for Pb, Zn, Fe, Ni and Cd using AAS. Results show marked variations of heavy metal concentrations within study area. Mean values of Fe (713.22 ± 59.39), Pb (5.95 ± 0.42), Zn (88.54 ± 8.03) and Cd (1.53 �...
The medicinal values of some species of Mistletoes (Tapinanthus globiferus) growing in the West African sub-region have been reviewed along with some considerations of their chemistries and local uses. Studies carried out revealed that mistletoes showed hypotensive, hypoglycemic etc.This present study was aimed at investigating some effects of aqueous extract of Tapinanthus globiferus leaves on the rat kidney. Thirty (30) adult Wister rats weighing (180-200) g were used for this experimental ...

Job satisfaction is a construct from the field of organizational behavior that measures attitude towards work. It has received a great deal of attention in research because of its potential effects on behavior and wellbeing of professionals (Rouleau, Fournier, Philibert, Mbengue & Dumont, 2010).
Anti-diabetic and Anti-oxidant potentials of Aqueous Extract of Eucalyptus Globulus in experimentally induced diabetic rats.
Men’s View About Female Genital Mutilation: A survey of Knowledge and Attitude of Men towards Female Genital Mutilation in Obi Local Government Area, Nasarawa State, Nigeria Abstract Background: Female genital mutilation has been in practice in many African countries for so many years and has now infiltrated the western world through immigrant to countries such as the United Kingdom, United States of America, Australia, Canada and other European countries, making it a global problem. Severa...
ABSTRACT This research is aim at isolating and characterization of microorganism (fungi and bacteria) from pap sold in Enugu metropolis. This research was carried out by getting ten (10) different sample from ten (10) prominent areas of the state (Abakpa, Coal Camp, Obiagu, Emene, Uwani, Eke Obinagu, New Layout, New Heaven, Ogui Road and Trans-ekulu). The samples were aseptically collected and were conveyed to the laboratory where they were analyzed. From the result of the microbiologica...
The various school of thoughts in manipulation presented different aproach in tackling manipulation. cyriax, maitland, kaltenburn presented their aproach. Kaltenborn translatoric movement; this are passive accessory movements that are divided into TRACTION ( separation) occurring perpendicular to the joint surface and GLIDING (parallel movement) which takes place parallel to the joint surface. Translatoric movement are used in both movement and treatment ( kaltenborn,1986. Cyriax contributi...
Abstract The effect of aqueous extract of Moringa oleifera seed on serum cortisol and body weights was investigated in 24 adult Wistar rats for 21 days. Dried Moringa oleifera seeds were powdered by an electric blender. With the aid of an oven regulated at 400C and water, the Moringa oleifera seed extract was produced. The extract was dissolved in 5% Tween 80 solution to produce aqueous extract with concentration of 200mg/ml. The rats with a mean body weight of 144±43.1g were divided into ...
Managing disease outbreaks in Nigeria has been an issue of great difficulty, mostly because; before cases are identified the disease would have spread to an uncontrollable level. incorporating Community Informants into the Integrated Disease Surveillance Systems can be used to strengthen Disease Surveillance and Response and improve community based surveillance. Here we tried to buttress the important role Community Informant plays in Disease surveillance and Response in Nigeria
