Ebola Virus Disease is one of the deadliest infectious diseases that has increased both mortality and morbidity rates primarily on the African continent. The aim of this report is to use mathematical modeling and analysis in controlling the spread of this disease. In this study, a mathematical model which represents the transmission and control processes of Ebola Virus Disease among human and vector hosts is developed. The Well-Posedness, Equilibrium States (i.e Disease Free Equilibrium and E...
The global economy has faced an unprecedented threat from the COVID-19 outbreak. The current illness is ravaging Africa at an exponential rate, and all of the continent's nations are experiencing the effects of the epidemic. In this study, we used the COVID-19 outbreak as a case study to examine the prediction of the economic impact of the pandemic in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). We adopted several models to work on the dataset to compare which one worked best for all 3 target variables and we d...
ABSTRACT An insurance company promises its policyholders to pay out benefits if certain events occur, for example, events such as a car accident and health conditions. When this is happens, the insurance company has a liability to pay the claims by technical provisions or claim reserving. The calculation of claim reserving must be done carefully in such a way that it should not cause loss to the company. Two of the common methods to calculate technical provisions in non-life insurance are the...
ABSTRACT ICT (Information and Communication Technology) has greatly changed contemporary education. The ICT solutions offered enrich learning environments and provide staffs with numerous opportunities. However, even though ICT can enhance education quality, there are many staffs that are unwilling to adjust to the changes brought about by ICT. One of the most crucial inhibitory factors that make staffs reluctant to utilize ICT in education is the lack of their training on ICT. Thus, the purp...
ABSTRACTAIDS is an acronym for acquired immune deficiency syndrome it cause a destruction of the immune system. It is the most advance stage of HIV viruses (Human Immune deficiency syndrome Virus). This research work is carried out to determine the relationship between male and female HIV patient using data collected from National Tuberclosis and Leprosy training centre Says Zaria. The model arrived in this research. It shows a linear trend model for the male patients Yt=2038 -55.4,364*t show...
ABSTRACT This project is a power bank for laptops, and it is designed to serve as a back up to a laptop whenever there is no power supply and it has a variable knob which controls the output voltage to a desired value. The problem is that we carry different chargers for different gadgets. Though the cost of producing is more costly than the normal chargers we have around but it can serve as a reliable backup considering the problem and solution above a power bank for laptop charger is neede...

ABSTRACT Design and implementation of weather forecasting package for aviation industry is discussed in this research work using Sam Mbakwe Airport, Owerri – Imo State as a case study. With its objectives research work as follows: To help aviation Meteorologists issue accurate weather forecasts. To enable aviation industry to make decisions on control based on information given etc. This research work reviews the background and general idea of weather forecasting which motivated me to go in...
The recent obvious manifestation of rising damp, flaked plaster, blistered paint and cracks which are subtle evidences of structural distress necessitated a post-construction integrity assessment of the immediate vicinities of a church auditorium in Ado-Ekiti southwestern Nigeria. The Spontaneous Potential (SP) and Electrical Resistivity (ER) methods of geophysical prospecting were adopted for the assessment. Using a Total Field array spacing of 2 m and Dipole-dipole array spacing of 5 m resp...
ABSTRACT Web Based Census Management System includes the sets of methods that allow us to measure the dimensions and dynamics of populations. The aim of the study is to Design and Implement a Web Based Census Management System. In achieving this aim, the following specific objectives were laid out as follows to develop a: computerized software that automatically stores and retrieves all information on human population, reliable system that could be used in collecting data/information on huma...
ABSTRACT A total number of ten (10) locally fermented milk (nono) samples were collected from five (5) different retail outlet namely: Gombe main market, Jekadafari,Pantami, TashanDukku, and Tumfure. Bacteriological analysis was carried out on the samples for isolation and identification of bacteria associated with such products as well as total aerobic plate count. Seven (7) specie of bacteria which are of public health importance were isolated and identified. The percentage of occurrences o...
ABSTRACT Guava (Psidium guajava L) is native to South America and exists as both wild and cultivated. Guava has been used as a source of food and raw materials for pharmaceuticals. The aim of this study was to determine bioactivity of methanol and water extracts from apple guava against selected pathogenic bacteria. Study samples were collected from Tal, Gombe State, Nigeria and taken to the departmental herbarium for identification to obtain voucher number. Fifty grams of f...
ABSTRACT A study was carried out to investigate the effects of sulphuric acid, hot water and soaking of seed in water treatments on the germination of Bambara nut (V. subterranea) seeds were planted in poly pots for germination. 40 seeds of Vigna subterranea (one per poly pot) with ten replicates each were used. The highest germination was recorded in seeds soaked in water for 24 hours. Germination was observed to be low or slow in untreated (control) seeds. While there was poor or no resp...
ABSTRACT Comparative analysis of Tap, Borehole, Well and Package water in Gombe metropolis of Gombe State, Nigeria was conducted in order to examine their qualities with a view to determine their portability. A total of 8 water samples collected from four different functional water supply sources in the study area were subjected to physicochemical and bacteriological test and analyzed using standard analytical techniques and instruments. Most of the physicochemical parameters of the sample...
