It employed the use of descriptive correlation research method, 12 Provosts and Deputy Provosts (academic), and 149 lecturers of the six Federal Training Centres in Nigeria. Questionnaire was used in data collection with reliability value of .981. Five operational research hypotheses were formulated and tested using Pearson-product moment correlation and t-test statistics to analyze data. The results revealed that there is a strong, positive correlation between emotional intelligence and administrative effectiveness of provosts surveyed with calculated r-value .785 greater than the critical rvalue .532 at .05 level of significance. Based on the findings, it was recommended among others that provosts of Federal Training Centres in Nigeria should regularly update themselves on the four domains of emotional intelligence because of the impacts these competencies could have on their administrative effectiveness and ultimately the school effectiveness.

It was against this background that this study adopted the reintegrative shaming theory to investigate the nexus between deradicalisation and national security. This study decomposed national security into terrorism and proliferation of small arms and light weapons, using the lens of deradicalisation process under Operation Safe Corridor and Sulhu. This study employed exploratory research design with reliance on publicly available archive documents. The study relies solely on secondary data.

This study employed exploratory research design with reliance on publicly available archive documents. The study relies solely on secondary data. The research is conducted by examining literature concerning deradicalisation, terrorism and small and light weapon proliferation. The literature was obtained through searches in publicly available material. Literature from non-serial publications, official reports, and conferences has been included particularly if they have been cited by other references in connection with national security. Findings from the study showed that deradicalisation positively influence counterterrorism campaign by the military, intelligence and law enforcement agencies.Result from study also showed that deradicalisation influence onproliferation of small arms and light weapon remained largely unsettled. The study recommends that government should create holistic buy-ins into the operation safe corridor, whichshould be broadened and not siloed as presently seen in Nigeria by the military, which has a low buy in point, for local community involvement. The study also recommends the Nigeria Security architecture should encourage decentralization of commands and control closer to the people by unbundling security from exclusive list into the concurrent list, so as to properly situate security closer to the people and not the elite alone.

This study investigated the correlation between self management leadership and administrative effectiveness of School heads. It employed the use of descriptive correlation research method, 12 Provosts and Deputy Provosts (academic), and 149 lecturers of the six Federal Training Centres in Nigeria. Questionnaire was used in data collection with reliability value of .981. Two research hypotheses were formulated and tested using Pearson-product moment correlation and t-test statistics to analyze data. The results revealed that there is a strong, positive correlation between self management leadership and administrative effectiveness of provosts surveyed with calculated r-value .935 greater than the critical r-value .532 at .05 level of significance. Based on the findings, it was recommended among others that school heads should regularly update themselves on the six competencies of self management leadership because of the impacts these competencies could have on their administrative effectiveness and ultimately the school effectiveness.
