This study examined the influence of skill acquisition programs as a tool for economic growth in Nigeria. The study made use of two objectives which seek to find out the influence of skill acquisition on economic development and also investigate gender differences in skill acquisition on economic development. Two hypotheses were formulated, which were drawn from the objective of the study. A survey research design was adopted in the study. The population were unemployed youths in Ondo state, Nigeria. A sample size of two hundred (200) unemployed youths was selected. A simple random sampling technique was used to select the participants. A primary source of data collection was adopted, which involved the use of a self-constructed questionnaire. Results revealed that skill acquisition has a significant influence on economic development [F (l, 198) 194.24]; there is a significant gender difference in skill acquisition on economic development [t (198) =.891, p 0.05] such that male youth (M = 58.44; SD = 8.70) have the same level of skill acquisition compared to female youths (M = 41-56; SD = 7.52). It was concluded that skill acquisition programmes provided for unemployed youths have actually influenced the economic development of Nigeria. It was recommended that the government should ensure that skill acquisition centres are well equipped so as to ensure a suitable learning environment; and the government should help finance those who have undergone skill acquisition programs to enable them to set up a business to become entrepreneurs.

A balanced panel of annually observed observations from South Africa over the period of 22 years (1995–2017) was used. The study used gross domestic product (GDP), health expenditure, labor force, and age structure as control variables and pooled OLS, fixed effect, and random effect tests to estimate the relationships among the variables. The results show that the old-age dependency ratio, gross domestic product (GDP), unemployment rate, and gross value added (GVA) are all explanatory variables that are related to healthcare spending and are shown as a base model in the pooled OLS. The results indicate that healthcare expenditure and the old-age dependency ratio have a positive relationship in South Africa. Considering the implications for policy, this study suggests that the South African economy should account for the aging population when policies are designe...

The industry is a significant contributor to the food security and it also provides many social and economic attributes to the nation. South Africa has the potential to be self-sufficient in milk production, the country currently imports fluid milk and processed dairy products. For the industry to attain a larger world market share, it has to be competitive. A proper and constant intercultural business communication (IBC) with nations that are advanced in the production of milk and dairy products is the key to improving the sector's competitiveness. In this regard, the study examines the role of innovative intercultural business communication for the improvement of South African dairy industry.

The amino acid composition of the fruits of Solanum aethiopicum and Solanum macrocarpon was determined on dry weight basis. The total essential amino acid ranged from 288 g kg to 318 g kg crude protein or from 48.9 % to 50.3 % of the total amino acid. The two samples had high correlation coefficient (rxy = 0.9876). The predicted protein efficiency ratio was 1.90 2.30, essential amino acid index range was 0.81-0.90 and the lysine amino acid score based on whole hen’s egg was 0.54-0.61. The quality of protein was high. Among the 17 amino acids determined, the S. macrocarpon was more concentrated in 15 (88.2 %) than the S. aethiopicum; the other two were the acidic amino acids (Asp and Glu). E.I. ADEYEYE E. I.

This study investigated the influence of job satisfaction on employees’ performance. Herzberg’s two-factor hygiene and motivation theory was used to explain employees' motivation for best performance. A cross-sectional survey design in the form of a structured questionnaire was used to randomly sample one hundred (100) employees of the University of Zululand, South Africa. Descriptive and correlation analysis were used to analyze the collected data. The findings indicate that job satisfaction does not influence employees’ performance. The study concludes that UNIZULU employees enjoy their roles despite the unsatisfactory benefits attached. In spite of the unsatisfactory level of benefits, they perform their duties effortlessly. This research contributes to research-based knowledge that will assist universities’ management in identifying the factors that will enhance emp...

Understanding the role of communication within any organisation is crucial and its appropriate use is of paramount importance. Should communications be removed from an organisation, the organisation will cease to exist because communication is truly the lifeblood of any organisation (Rogers & Agarwala-Rogers, 1967, p. 7). This paper aims to emphasize the need to incorporate communication modules in higher education curricula, and also to identify the various forms of communication used by organisations. The paper is based on the premise that communication is the lifeblood of every organisation; without proper and effective communication, the organisation will cease to exist. The objectives are to describe the various forms of communication used by organisations to propagate their services, in order for higher institutions of learning to incorporate them into their curricula.

This study discussed and evaluated the conventional media role as the "fourth estate of the realm" by functioning as defenders, watchdogs and providers of accurate information in a democratic society. Social Responsibility Theory, a version of free press theory, was used to underpin the study by providing examples of how the media's actions can affect a democratic society. The study adopted a meta-analysis approach by reviewing numerous published research studies to clarify the role of conventional media as the fourth estate. The content analysis of the reviewed literature revealed that conventional news media roles as check and balance, watch-dogs and adversary have been jeopardised. New media is now strengthened with the ability to displace conventional media as "the fourth estate".
