Authors: BabalolaAtinuke (Ph. D)
Abstract: It is overtly important to note that early childhood education is the starting point for children as citizens and their general development is a basic foundation for subsequent levels of education; hence, a lot is expected from their teachers. The study aimed to assess whether teachers’ conditions of service could have any significant influence on their job performance and productivity in public early childhood education in Bwari LGA, Abuja. To achieve the objectives of the study, the study raised two research questions and two hypotheses. A descriptive survey research design was adopted for the study. A simple random sampling technique was used to select a sample of24 head teachers, 168 teachers, and 32 educational officials from the targeted population. Descriptive statistical tools
were used: mean ( ) and standard deviation (S.D).
The hypotheses were analyzed using mean ) and
standard deviation (S.D ) on a five point Likert scale.
Findings indicated that a conducive and serene school environment and regular and periodic staff training and development enhance teacher job performance and productivity in public early childhood education. Hence, it is recommended that enhancing and securing the school and learning environment and adequate regular training programs are important for teachers’ productivity.
Description: Early Childhood (EC) generally refers to the initial eight years of a child‘s life. Unequivocally, this is the period when early school begins for children aged 3 to 5. In essence, early childhood education (ECE) includes crèches, nursery, and kindergarten, while primary education indicates education given to children between ages 610 years and above. This period is seen as an important aspect for child development in building human capital needed for educational achievement. Early Childhood Education is also a vital preventive measure aimed at reducing the occurrence of remedialclasses,classrepetition,beingassignedforspeciallearningclasses,andafterwarddroppingoutofschoo2023-07-07T00:00:00ZDecolonizing Nigerian Educational System as an Impetus for a Holistic DevelopmentOdunayo Tolulope Ojo, Atinuke Titilope Babalola (PhD)Babatunde Joshua Omotosho, (PhD)http://repository.fuoye.edu.ng:80/handle/123456789/23952024-03-05T14:07:29Z2023-06-16T00:00:00ZTitle: Decolonizing Nigerian Educational System as an Impetus for a Holistic Development
Authors: Odunayo Tolulope Ojo, Atinuke Titilope Babalola (PhD); Babatunde Joshua Omotosho, (PhD)
Abstract: The importance of education in the development of individuals and society as a
whole cannot be overemphasised. But when it is not indigenised, some of the aims may become
defeated as traditional norms are destroyed and social productivity is curtailed. Studies have
therefore advocated for a decolonised education as the probable solution to the socio-cultural and
economic challenges facing the continent of Africa. Consequently, this paper examined
decolonised education in Nigeria as an impetus for a holistic development. In addressing the
subject, the paper examined decolonized education in Nigeria; the impacts of western education
on Nigeria and indigenous education; and the importance of decolonising education for African
centred development. The paper further argued that while the structure for a decolonised
education exits in the country, nothing much has been done in the area of implementation in recent
times. The paper therefore recommended that concerted efforts must be made to decolonise
education at all levels in order to pave way for a holistic and Nigerian centred development.

Authors: BUSAYO, ISAAC OLUWADARE
Abstract: The study surveys the impact of orientation programme on university freshmen at the
Federal University Oye-Ekiti, Ekiti State, Nigeria. A sample of two hundred
questionnaires was administered on the freshmen across the four Faculties of the
University namely: Agriculture, Engineering, Humanities and Social Sciences and
Science, with a response rate of 197, representing 98.5%. The findings revealed that
orientation was educative, enlightening and interactive and it allowed for question
and answer opportunity. The results further showed that direct contact and
familiarity with the Principal Officers of the university is ensured while
accommodation and other challenges of freshmen are addressed. Orientation
programme/tours equally allow for the familiarity of freshmen with the institution.
As to whether orientation was a waste of time, 193 respondents (96.5%) disagreed
while 4 respondents (2%) agreed. Likewise, on whether orientation should be
cancelled, 195 respondents (97.5%) said no while only 2 respondents (1%) said yes. In
like manner, 192 respondents (96%) claimed that orientation talks/speeches motivate
and encourage freshmen but 5 respondents (2.5%) disagreed. However, 193
respondents (96.5%) opined that orientation should be held consistently annually for
freshmen while 4 respondents (2%) were against this opinion/option.
Recommendations were made as appropriate in line with the findings to enhance and
sustain orientation programme in tertiary institutions in Nigeria.

Authors: Asuzu, I. U; Maxwell, I. Ezeja; Aruh O., Anaga
Abstract: Ethnopharmacological relevance: Gouania longipetala leaves are commonly used in folkloric medicine in
Africa and other parts of the world for treatment of edema, febrifuges, veneral diseases, lumbago, heart
diseases, diabetes mellitus malaria, etc. This study therefore evaluated safety profile of the methanol leaf
extract of the plant using acute and sub-chronic studies in rat model.
Materials and methods: Acute toxicity test of the plant lasted for 48 h with oral administration of graded
doses (100–4000 mg/kg) of Gouania longipetala extract (GLE) in rats. The rats were observed for signs of
toxicity and death. The sub-chronic toxicity was evaluated by administration of different doses (2.5, 5 and
10 mg/kg) of GLE daily in feed for 90 days. On days, 30, 60 and 90, blood samples collected from the
retro-orbital plexus of the eye of the rats were used for evaluation of serum biochemistry, hematology,
lipid peroxidation and in vivo antioxidant activities. Histopathological evaluations of the kidney, liver,
lungs and heart were also done.
Results: The acute toxicity test revealed no observable signs of toxicity or morbidity. Sub-chronic study
showed that GLE significantly (po0.05) increased relative liver weight on day 90 at 10 mg/kg. There
were no significant variations in the hematological parameters of both GLE treated and untreated rats.
The extract significantly (po0.05) reduced total cholesterol, triglycerides, very low density lipoproteins
and increased high density lipoproteins which was more prominent on day 90 at the dose of 10 mg/kg.
The extract significantly (po0.05) increased liver enzyme markers at the doses used. GLE also
significantly (po0.05) increased serum urea at the dose of 10 mg/kg on day 90. The extract caused
dose-dependent and significant (po0.05) increase in superoxide dismutase and decrease in malondiadehyde.
Histopathological studies revealed degenerative changes in the kidney and liver.
Conclusion: The results of the study suggest that Gouania longipetala is well tolerated in short term
therapies, but may have long term toxic effects on the kidney and liver. vc@fuoye.edu.ng2013-10-31T00:00:00ZThe antiinflammatory activity of extracts from the root of Combretum dolichopetalumAsuzu, I.

Authors: Asuzu, I. U; Adimorah, R. I.
Abstract: The methanol and chloroform extracts of the root of Combretum dolichopetalum were obtained and
gave yields of 6.48%
w/w and 0.38% w/w respectively. The methanol extract significantly inhibited car
ageenin-induced mouse paw edema in a dose-dependent manner after an oral treatment.
The maximum
effect was achieved at a dose of 600 mg/kg and the result was comparable to that of indomethacin (10
mg/kg). The antiinflammatory activity of the chloroform extract against croton-oil induced mouse ear
edema was significant (p
< 0.001) and increased with the dose. The maximum effect (93%) was
achieved with 1.0 mg of the extract per ear. vc@fuoye.edu.ng1998-04-05T00:00:00Z
