CHAPTER ONE  INTRODUCTION  1.1 Background of the Study Fluoride is one of the very few chemicals that have been shown to cause significant effects in people through drinking-water. Fluoride has beneficial effects on teeth at low concentrations in drinking-water, but excessive exposure to fluoride in drinking-water, or in combination with... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT This project work was undertaken to assess the state of ground water(borehole and well water) and its health implications in Warri metropolis using Uvwie, Udu and Effurun Local Government Area. Samples were collected in six different locations in Warri metropolis. The analysis was centered on the physiochemical parameters considered pH,... Continue Reading

Groundwater contamination occurs when man-made products such as gasoline, oil, road salts  and chemicals get into the groundwater and cause it to become unsafe and unfit for human  use. Drinking contaminated groundwater can have serious health effects. Diseases such as  hepatitis and dysentery may be caused by contamination from septic tank... Continue Reading

Abstract Schlumberger array is the most commonly used among other arrays for Vertical Electrical Sounding (VES) and   it requires large spacing at both ends for deeper subsurface information. The problem of limited space for spreading in built  up areas could lead to incomplete information from deeper depth. The Geolectrical survey involving... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT Capacity development is a fundamental part of the mandates of many international organizations. Much of their work aims to strengthen national capacities through training, technical advice, exchange of experiences, research, and policy advice. Yet there is considerable dissatisfaction within the international community regarding the... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT The ground rent has of course become an established part of modern leasing practice, but is only as recently as the as the 1950’s that landoners were granted leases at a fixed rents by the government without review. Land is a free gift of nature and no action of man bought land into existence that is why it is very necessary for man to... Continue Reading

Background of the Study The growth and development of contemporary society in Nigeria and present social, political and economic pains being have had grave or adverse effect on the life span and sustenance of marriages in general. The consequential hardship and challenges existing in many marriages today violently push the edges of the enclosing... Continue Reading
