ABSTRACT This research work titled „‟An Econometric Study of tanker Shipping services in Nigeria‟‟ aimed at examining the demand for tanker shipping services with the resultant crude oil to be exported from Nigeria to other parts of the world using a time series regression approach and correlations. The objective is to ascertain whether the demand for tanker vessels (tonnage) corresponds with the resultant volume of the crude oil available at oil terminal to be exported. Our findings...
ABSTRACT The Nigerian maritime industry is dominated by foreign shipping companies. The foreign firms dominated over 95% of the activities whereby, rendering the indigenous companies useless and non-active. However, these have resulted to many companies to go underground since they cannot participate or complete favourably with the foreign companies. As a result of this, Nigeria loses billion of naira annually though capital flight which has affected the economy negatively. Nigeria is an im...

Attempt was made to review related literatures which formed the theoretical framework. This study, being empirical, primary data was collected through questionnaire administered to two h...
ABSTRACT This study is designed to examine the cargo traffic from Nigerian seaports, using the Calabar and Port Harcourt port complexes as case study. The objective being to identify the function for assessing cargo movement from the aforementioned seaports to different towns in the country. This culminated in a model depicting the functional relationship which exists between the variables used in the study. A chronological review of related studies by different scholars was carried out to ...
ABSTRACT This study undertakes a critical analysis of risk management as a formal technique for managing risks in project execution. It specifically probes into the proximate sources of risk into construction projects in Nigeria, the level of awareness and use of the technique amongst Nigerian construction professionals with a view to properly situating the remote causes of project distress and abandonment in Nigeria. In carrying out the study, large scale construction projects were targeted...
ABSTRACT This study focuses on the design and construction of a solar cell phone charger with battery bank. It is designed to meet up with the high demand of power supply needed to keep our cell phone batteries charged especially people in open public places like traders in Kejetia market in the Ashanti region of Ghana. A solar cell phone battery charger is an electrical device that converts the energy of sunlight directly into electricity by the photovoltaic effect. It does this by the use o...
ABSTRACT This dissertation assesses the skills of roadside mechanics in diagnosing and fixing problems of vehicle system and components in the Tamale Metropolis. In the study, the various vehicle repair and maintenance skills used by roadside mechanics, challenges facing them and the satisfaction level of drivers who patronize their services were investigated using a questionnaire. Table 1 revealed that a large number of the automechanics in the Tamale Metropolis have considerable years of au...
Software engineering projects (SEP) nowadays acknowledge the importance of incorporating many people, groups, and organizations with interest or requirements during project development phases for the realization of successful project. These groups who are collectively referred to as stakeholders are not limited to those who use it, rather those who build, test, operate, maintain, evaluate, and pay for it. One of the major concerns in SEP is the recognition and management of project stake...
This study investigates airlines level of service to domestic passengers in Nigeria using process stages with a number of service quality attributes each. These attributes represent points where the passenger experience varying kind of services. Data were collected from passengers waiting for their flights using a well-structured questionnaire on a five-point likert scale regarding passenger's expectations and perception of service offer. The data was encoded into Microsoft excel and su...
ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to understand the institutional effects on the implementation and use of E-Government financial systems in developing countries and its related consequences. Research in E-Government financial systems and E-Government in developing countries have focused more on issues relating to the challenges and failure of such information systems (IS). In light of this, little is known about the institutional effects and the consequences of implementing and using suc...
ABSTRACT This case study was conducted at Kukurantumi in the Eastern Region of Ghana. The population of the research involved the artisans (welders) comprising of workshop owner, master welder and the apprentices. In reference to the diagnostic test conducted, the analysis in chapter four showed relatively the poor observance of safety in the welding and fabrication in the workshops. The researcher used 60 people for the sample size and simple random sampling technique was employed. The study...
The composite soymilk yogurt flavoured with pineapple as sweetener was produced from composite blend of dano milk and soymilk. It was pasteurized at 850c for 5 minutes. It was cooled , homogenized and inoculated with mixed yogurt starter culture of Lactobacillus bulgaricus, and Lactobacillus acidophilus at 250c for 24 hours. The proximate, physicochemical properties and sensory evaluation of the composite yogurt were determined. In the proximate, the study reveals that the combination of da...
The inhibiting effect of aqueous extracts of MucunaPruriends (MP) on mild steel corrosion in 1 M HCl and 0.5 M H2SO4solution was investigated using weight loss and electrochemical techniques. The results revealed that MP inhibited the corrosion reaction. Polarization data reveal that the extract functioned as a mixed type inhibitor. Inhibition efficiencies of the inhibitor increased with concentration of the extract but decreased gradually with an increase in the period of immersion. Th...
Abstract The need for communication in the world has become increasingly daunting and so has the technology to enhance it. The primary reason for communication has been pegged largely to demand for factual data. This project’s sole aim is to redirect the boundless information in education available both in human minds and on the internet into a single space, available for queries, implementation and further discourse. The project is the development of a Question and Answer site tailored spe...
