Stimulants are a major constituent of psychoactive substances. They cause several untoward effects; including academic difficulty which can lead to untoward consequences for students. The understanding of the knowledge and pattern of use of stimulant will help in its prevention and control. Thus, this study intended to investigate the knowledge and practice and current prevalence rates of stimulant use, using the undergraduate students in the university of Benin as case study, age and gender of students as well monthly income and how they got to know about stimulants, specific type of stimulant used and reason for using stimulants. The instrument consisted of sociodemographic variables and the stimulant knowledge section, benefits, health effects and effects section of Questionnaire for Student Drug Use Survey. It was administered on 100 undergraduate students of University of Benin selected by random technique. The current prevalence rates of stimulant use were 61%, 54% and 50% respectively for the use caffeine, alcohol and cannabis. The majority (77%) of our respondents were in the age range of 21-25. Only 2% of our respondents were married. Therefore, efforts at curtailing the use of stimulants must start early; incorporating such strategy into primary school curriculum will be worthwhile. There is need to focus more on common stimulants like coffee, Kola nut, caffeinated energy drinks. Students need to study without using stimulants.

This study investigated skill acquisition and job creation among women in Edo State. The specific objectives were to examine the relationship between technical skills, creative skills, vocational skills and entrepreneurial skills with job creation among women in Edo State. It was a field survey and a total of five hundred and sixteen (516) women constituted the population size and the same 516 as the sample size for the purpose robust results and generalisation. The main research instrument employed was questionnaire administration and data collected were analysed using descriptive statistics and least square regression method. The study found that technical skills, creative skills, vocational skills and entrepreneurial skills all have significant positive relationship at p-value of 1%, 1%, 2%, and 3% respectively with job creation among women in Edo state. The study therefore recommended that government should provide the enabling environment and financial assistance to entrepreneurs especially to women with different creative, technical and entrepreneurial skills in order to promote job creation.

This study was aimed to examine suitability of Dangara middle layer clay as an adsorbent for the removal of vanadium ions. variable parameter such as adsorbent dosage, initial concentration, contact time, pH and temperature were at moderate level such that they can affect the removal of vanadium ions. For pH, it was observed that the % removal was increases with an increasing in pH. The optimum % removal was obtained from 79.39 at pH 9, and the lower % removal was obtained at 70.50 from pH 3. For adsorbent dosage it was discover % removal increases with an increasing in adsorbent dosage, the optimum % removal was obtained 82.15 at 1g and the lower % removal was obtained from 69.28 at 0.2g. for initial concentration there an increases in percentage removal with an increasing in initial concentration the optimum percentage removal was obtained at 86.91 at 50g and lower percentage removal was obtained from 81.56 at 10g. for contact time it was discover there is increases in percentage removal with an increasing in contact time, the optimum percentage removal was obtained from 80.52 at 50mins And the lower percentage removal was obtained at 76.07 at 10mins also there is an increases in percentage removal with an increasing in temperature, optimum percentage removal was obtained at 80ᴼC (81.07) and lower percentage at 40ᴼC (78.67). The efficiency determination (r2) fitted for both langmuir and freundlich. For Langmuir isotherm it was discover that the efficiency determination (r2) obtained was 0.999 and efficiency determination for freundlich was 0.995 Maximum adsorption capacity calculated for Langmuir was 0.345mg/g why the freundlich constant obtained was o.457. The Langmuir model was found to better described the adsorption behavior. Overall, the clay is not considered competent enough as an adsorbent for the removal of vanadium ions from aqueous solution because of low adsorption capacity calculated to be 0.345mg/g. Modification of the surface of the clay could improve its adsorption capacity.

The web based brochure system for tailoring is a web based system application designed for the tailor’s shop. This project is aimed to automate the tailor’s shop which is manually maintained. After the automation this will mean, better services and good keeping of records, data integrity, data security, quick search and also paperless environment. The project has mainly tackled management of information for the customers and in decision making. Every user of the system will have to log into the system using username and password so that security and authentication will be ensured. Once logged in, a customer can make and order. The system administrator is able to manage customer information and also update records.
