The population comprises of Three Hundred (300) students through stratified sampling technique from institutions in Ekiti State was used. A questionnaire was designed using a descriptive research design for data collection. The data was collected using questionnaire. Three hypotheses were tested in total and they are: there will be a significant relationship between group thinking, cohesiveness, personality characteristics and criminal behavior; Personality Characteristics will significantly predict criminal behavior; Group thinking and cohesiveness will have main and interaction influence on criminal behaviour; the first hypothesis was tested using regression analysis and found that there is a positive and significant relationship between criminal behaviour and group thinking with r = .194, p<0.05 and there is a negative but ...

The mean of total bacterial, coliform and enterococcal count ranged from 0.1 x 10 5 CFU/mL to 13.9 x 10 5 CFU/mL; 0.1 x 10 5 CFU/mL to 7.2 x 10 5 CFU/mL and 0.1 x 10 5 CFU/mL to 6.3 x 10 5 CFU/mL respectively for water samples; and 14.6 x 10 7 CFU/mL to 24.2 x 10 7 CFU/mL; 11.7 x 10 7 CFU/mL to 28.3 x 10 7 CFU/mL and 13.4 x 10 7 CFU/mL to 34.9 x 10 7 CFU/mL respectively for leachate samples. Escherichia coli had the highest percentage occurrence of (34%) while Klebsiella spp had the least percentage occurrence of (1%). Only 6 - 33% and 0-18% of Gram positive and Gram negative isolates were respectively resistant to ofloxacin but all the isolates were resistant to other antibiotic at varying percentages. A little...
