The confinement of success to only the middle and distance events does not auger well for its future especially at the Olympic games. To date, Kenya has won a total of 54 medals with 47(87.04%) being in athletics and the remaining 7(12.94%) from boxing. Out of the 47 medals won in athletics, 43(96.5%) of them were in the middle and distance events.  Several factors have positively contributed to the excellent performances including finance, training, commitment, raw talent, physiological, constitutional as well as other social-cultural factors. It is therefore recommended in this paper that the athletics managers, scientists and practitioners assist in identifying, nurturing and developing talents as well as tactics that will guarantee the continued domination in the middle and distance athletic events in the 21st century. A diversification of sports disciplines as well as athletics events, both for men and women, is recommended if Kenya is to win more medals at Olympic levels.

The current industrial policy which came into operation in 1988 aimed at increasing private sector participation in the manufacturing sector and accelerated development and utilization of local raw materials by the manufacturing sector. Studies carried out on the wood and wood products sector of the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria showed that total wood available down to 30cm cutting diameter in national forests is approximately 293,775,500m3. When this is juxtaposed with annual requirement estimated at 59,955,000m3 for 2010, extreme wood shortages are expected in the near future. As a result of this, the nation has to develop a substitute or complementary raw material to wood. One of the most recognized substitutes is bamboo. Bamboo has been used as substitute to wood in most applications and new uses are emerging. As Nigeria is blessed with abundant bamboo resources, efforts should be made to develop the nation’s bamboo resource. The imperatives that will lead to sustainable development of bamboo as an industrial raw material in Nigeria are its role in biodiversity conservation, impending wood deficit, bamboos high industrial potentials and its abundant availability in the southern and central parts of the country. To foster bamboo development, there is need for a comprehensive and long term support that only a policy can provide. The goals of such a policy and its approaches and strategies to be adopted must be clearly highlighted in the policy document. The guidelines for the development of such a policy are outlined in this paper.Keywords: Imperatives, bamboo, industrial policy"],"publicationDate":"2013-08-20","publisher":"Transcampus Interdisciplinary Research and Study Group","embargoEndDate":null,"sources":["Journal of Research in National Development; Vol 10, No 2 (2012); 348-357","1596-8308"],"formats":["application/pdf"],"contributors":null,"coverages":null,"bestAccessRight":null,"container":{"name":"Journal of Research in National Development","issnPrinted":"1596-8308","issnOnline":"1596-8308","issnLinking":null,"ep":null,"iss":null,"sp":null,"vol":null,"edition":null,"conferencePlace":null,"conferenceDate":null},"documentationUrls":null,"codeRepositoryUrl":null,"programmingLanguage":null,"contactPeople":null,"contactGroups":null,"tools":null,"size":null,"version":null,"geoLocations":null,"id":"78975075580c::0701d2ca508dff277abc51159428656d","originalIds":["oai:ojs.ajol.info:article/92715","50|78975075580c::0701d2ca508dff277abc51159428656d"],"pids":null,"dateOfCollection":null,"lastUpdateTimeStamp":null,"indicators":{"citationImpact":{"citationCount":0.0,"influence":2.2251732E-9,"popularity":5.0245597E-10,"impulse":0.0,"citationClass":"C5","influenceClass":"C5","impulseClass":"C5","popularityClass":"C5"}},"projects":null,"organizations":null,"communities":[{"code":"nbfc","label":"Italian National Biodiversity Future Center","provenance":null}],"collectedFrom":[{"key":"openaire____::7df54c0575a02913eaf8f882b842e60e","value":"African Journals Online (AJOL)"}],"instances":[{"type":"Article","urls":["https://www.ajol.info/index.php/jorind/article/view/92715"],"publicationDate":"2013-08-20","refereed":"peerReviewed","hostedBy":{"key":"issn__online::f1cffbd981f0db7071ca8ab0a021254c","value":"Journal of Research in National Development"},"collectedFrom":{"key":"openaire____::7df54c0575a02913eaf8f882b842e60e","value":"African Journals Online (AJOL)"}}],"isGreen":false,"isInDiamondJournal":false},{"authors":[{"fullName":"Onyishi, IE","name":"Ie","surname":"Onyishi","rank":1,"pid":null},{"fullName":"Ugwu, FO","name":"Fo","surname":"Ugwu","rank":2,"pid":null}],"openAccessColor":"gold","publiclyFunded":false,"type":"publication","language":{"code":"eng","label":"English"},"countries":null,"subjects":[{"subject":{"scheme":"FOS","value":"03 medical and health sciences"},"provenance":null},{"subject":{"scheme":"FOS","value":"0502 economics and business"},"provenance":null},{"subject":{"scheme":"FOS","value":"05 social sciences"},"provenance":null},{"subject":{"scheme":"SDG","value":"8.

The objectives of the study were to examine the economic impacts of price instability and identifying the causes of increase in prices of oil products. The assumptions of the study are that the rise in price of petroleum products has contributed significantly to inflation in Nigeria, using simple regression analysis of data to find out the relationship between dependent and independent variables. The study revealed that whenever petroleum increases, the inflation rate also increases. The explanation for the above result is that the relationship between the inflation rate and the price of petrol is significant.

In Cameroon, malnutrition is a public health problem and rural areas suffer more from child malnutrition than the urban areas. The objective of this study is to identify the factors that explain inequality in the distribution of child malnutrition between urban and rural areas in Cameroon. The methodology used is based on the Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition. The data used is from the Demographic and Health Survey organized in 2011 by the National Institute of Statistics. Differences in endowments of children and mothers explain 75% of the weight difference of children under 5 years between urban and rural areas. We specifically find that a paid job for the mother reduces by approximately 2.56 % the differences in the weights of children of less than 5 years between urban and rural areas. Also, the education of the mother reduces the difference in weight between the rural and urban children by 2.44% for primary education, 5.48% for secondary education and 3.54% for higher education. Lastly, the difference in weight between the children of rural and urban areas increases when the households are poor. The reduction inequalities of child malnutrition between urban and rural areas in Cameroon thus passes through the improvement of the education of the mother, the strengthening of the economic capacities of women in rural areas and the improvement of the living conditions of rural households.Keywords: infant malnutrition, inequality, Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition"],"publicationDate":"2018-07-18","publisher":"Centre for Economics and Community Economic Development","embargoEndDate":null,"sources":["African Journal of Economic Review; Vol 6, No 2 (2018); 214-231","1821-8148"],"formats":["application/pdf"],"contributors":null,"coverages":null,"bestAccessRight":null,"container":{"name":"African Journal of Economic Review","issnPrinted":"1821-8148","issnOnline":"1821-8148","issnLinking":null,"ep":null,"iss":null,"sp":null,"vol":null,"edition":null,"conferencePlace":null,"conferenceDate":null},"documentationUrls":null,"codeRepositoryUrl":null,"programmingLanguage":null,"contactPeople":null,"contactGroups":null,"tools":null,"size":null,"version":null,"geoLocations":null,"id":"78975075580c::0ba2069b6be9cec6344614dcc432ad94","originalIds":["oai:ojs.ajol.info:article/174698","50|78975075580c::0ba2069b6be9cec6344614dcc432ad94"],"pids":null,"dateOfCollection":null,"lastUpdateTimeStamp":null,"indicators":{"citationImpact":{"citationCount":0.0,"influence":2.2251732E-9,"popularity":8.8985047E-10,"impulse":0.0,"citationClass":"C5","influenceClass":"C5","impulseClass":"C5","popularityClass":"C5"}},"projects":null,"organizations":null,"communities":null,"collectedFrom":[{"key":"openaire____::7df54c0575a02913eaf8f882b842e60e","value":"African Journals Online (AJOL)"}],"instances":[{"type":"Article","urls":["https://www.ajol.info/index.php/ajer/article/view/174698"],"publicationDate":"2018-07-18","refereed":"peerReviewed","hostedBy":{"key":"issn___print::42d030afd5eb1682c29e01303b5bfabc","value":"AFRICAN JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC REVIEW"},"collectedFrom":{"key":"openaire____::7df54c0575a02913eaf8f882b842e60e","value":"African Journals Online (AJOL)"}}],"isGreen":false,"isInDiamondJournal":false},{"authors":[{"fullName":"Oluchukwu, A","name":"A.","surname":"Oluchukwu","rank":1,"pid":null},{"fullName":"Nzuanke, SF","name":"Sf","surname":"Nzuanke","rank":2,"pid":null}],"openAccessColor":null,"publiclyFunded":false,"type":"publication","language":{"code":"eng","label":"English"},"countries":null,"subjects":[{"subject":{"scheme":"FOS","value":"0301 basic medicine"},"provenance":null},{"subject":{"scheme":"FOS","value":"03 medical and health sciences"},"provenance":null},{"subject":{"scheme":"FOS","value":"0502 economics and business"},"provenance":null},{"subject":{"scheme":"FOS","value":"05 social sciences"},"provenance":null},{"subject":{"scheme":"keyword","value":"Anthroponymia, translation, symbol, sign, culture."},"provenance":null}],"mainTitle":"Onomastics and Translation: The Case of Igbo→English Translation of Chi Names","subTitle":null,"descriptions":["The reoccurrence of chi or chukwu affixes in Igbo names has both cultural and religious undertones.

The qualitative research method will be used to translate, analyze and explain the data from the anthroponomical, semiotic and linguistic perspectives to show that contrary to the view held in some Western circles that names are obscure and may consist of words that can hardly be interpreted or translated, they, as symbols or signs in Igbo land (or even sub-Saharan African as a whole), are translatable since among the Niger-Congo language family, names have particular psycho-spiritual functions that are expressed through the “signs” that they represent.Keywords: Anthroponymia, translation, symbol, sign, culture."],"publicationDate":"2015-07-22","publisher":"TTI Publishing Ltd","embargoEndDate":null,"sources":["Lwati: A Journal of Contemporary Research; Vol 11, No 3 (2014); 122-140","1813-2227"],"formats":["application/pdf"],"contributors":null,"coverages":null,"bestAccessRight":null,"container":{"name":"Lwati: A Journal of Contemporary Research","issnPrinted":"1813-2227","issnOnline":"1813-2227","issnLinking":null,"ep":null,"iss":null,"sp":null,"vol":null,"edition":null,"conferencePlace":null,"conferenceDate":null},"documentationUrls":null,"codeRepositoryUrl":null,"programmingLanguage":null,"contactPeople":null,"contactGroups":null,"tools":null,"size":null,"version":null,"geoLocations":null,"id":"78975075580c::0d404a9b8f6f2cb1d7b0a47d9eff6b6c","originalIds":["50|78975075580c::0d404a9b8f6f2cb1d7b0a47d9eff6b6c","oai:ojs.ajol.info:article/119750"],"pids":null,"dateOfCollection":null,"lastUpdateTimeStamp":null,"indicators":{"citationImpact":{"citationCount":0.0,"influence":2.2251732E-9,"popularity":6.2166633E-10,"impulse":0.0,"citationClass":"C5","influenceClass":"C5","impulseClass":"C5","popularityClass":"C5"}},"projects":null,"organizations":null,"communities":null,"collectedFrom":[{"key":"openaire____::7df54c0575a02913eaf8f882b842e60e","value":"African Journals Online (AJOL)"}],"instances":[{"type":"Article","urls":["https://www.ajol.info/index.php/lwati/article/view/119750"],"publicationDate":"2015-07-22","refereed":"peerReviewed","hostedBy":{"key":"issn__online::51e5d3803d7d0e5a445709e3f3428463","value":"Lwati A Journal of Contemporary Research"},"collectedFrom":{"key":"openaire____::7df54c0575a02913eaf8f882b842e60e","value":"African Journals Online (AJOL)"}}],"isGreen":false,"isInDiamondJournal":false},{"authors":[{"fullName":"Mulugeta, FZ","name":"Fz","surname":"Mulugeta","rank":1,"pid":null}],"openAccessColor":"gold","publiclyFunded":false,"type":"publication","language":{"code":"eng","label":"English"},"countries":null,"subjects":[{"subject":{"scheme":"SDG","value":"2.

This is the reason why childhood mortality is treated as a development issue rather than a simple health problem. Ethiopia is among the places where the rate of such deaths is high, which is an indication of the poor quality of life that its people have. It is important to study the important factors of childhood mortality and design intervention in order to improve the situation. This study attempts to identify the important factors of childhood deaths by using the Ethiopian Demographic and Health Survey conducted in 2011. We have fitted an instrumental variable probit model to identify the structural relation between childhood mortality and maternal, child specific and household related variables. Maternal education, maternal age at first birth, total number of children ever born, access to facilities like toilet, safe water, radio and electricity turned out to be inversely related to childhood mortality while boys, multiple births, dirt floor houses and the use of pollutant cooking fuels are related positively.Key words: Child, Under-five, Mortality, Death, IV-probit , Ethiopia"],"publicationDate":"2013-01-09","publisher":"Ethiopian Economic Association (EEA), 1997","embargoEndDate":null,"sources":["Ethiopian Journal of Economics; Vol 20, No 2 (2011); 63-82","1993-3681"],"formats":["application/pdf"],"contributors":null,"coverages":null,"bestAccessRight":{"code":"c_abf2","label":"OPEN","scheme":"http://vocabularies.coar-repositories.org/documentation/access_rights/"},"container":{"name":"Ethiopian Journal of Economics","issnPrinted":"1993-3681","issnOnline":"1993-3681","issnLinking":null,"ep":null,"iss":null,"sp":null,"vol":null,"edition":null,"conferencePlace":null,"conferenceDate":null},"documentationUrls":null,"codeRepositoryUrl":null,"programmingLanguage":null,"contactPeople":null,"contactGroups":null,"tools":null,"size":null,"version":null,"geoLocations":null,"id":"78975075580c::1284b103dec4350cc44173f5b24fa7b0","originalIds":["50|78975075580c::1284b103dec4350cc44173f5b24fa7b0","oai:ojs.ajol.info:article/84223"],"pids":null,"dateOfCollection":null,"lastUpdateTimeStamp":null,"indicators":{"citationImpact":{"citationCount":0.0,"influence":2.2251732E-9,"popularity":5.0245597E-10,"impulse":0.0,"citationClass":"C5","influenceClass":"C5","impulseClass":"C5","popularityClass":"C5"}},"projects":null,"organizations":null,"communities":null,"collectedFrom":[{"key":"openaire____::7df54c0575a02913eaf8f882b842e60e","value":"African Journals Online (AJOL)"}],"instances":[{"accessRight":{"code":"c_abf2","label":"OPEN","scheme":"http://vocabularies.coar-repositories.org/documentation/access_rights/","openAccessRoute":"gold"},"type":"Article","urls":["https://www.ajol.info/index.php/eje/article/view/84223"],"publicationDate":"2013-01-09","refereed":"peerReviewed","hostedBy":{"key":"doajarticles::b67037aadf265868727e1b5583d60d5a","value":"Ethiopian Journal of Economics"},"collectedFrom":{"key":"openaire____::7df54c0575a02913eaf8f882b842e60e","value":"African Journals Online (AJOL)"}}],"isGreen":false,"isInDiamondJournal":false},{"authors":[{"fullName":"Nouatin, GS","name":"Gs","surname":"Nouatin","rank":1,"pid":null},{"fullName":"Moumouni, IM","name":"Im","surname":"Moumouni","rank":2,"pid":null},{"fullName":"Baco, NM","name":"Nm","surname":"Baco","rank":3,"pid":null},{"fullName":"Egah, J","name":"J.","surname":"Egah","rank":4,"pid":null}],"openAccessColor":null,"publiclyFunded":false,"type":"publication","language":{"code":"eng","label":"English"},"countries":null,"subjects":[{"subject":{"scheme":"FOS","value":"03 medical and health sciences"},"provenance":null},{"subject":{"scheme":"FOS","value":"0302 clinical medicine"},"provenance":null},{"subject":{"scheme":"FOS","value":"0502 economics and business"},"provenance":null},{"subject":{"scheme":"FOS","value":"05 social sciences"},"provenance":null}],"mainTitle":"Impact des prestations de l’agence pour la promotion et l’appui aux petites et moyennes entreprises (papme) sur le bien-etre et l’emploi des populations au centre du Benin","subTitle":null,"descriptions":["Les institutions de micro finance, de part leur importance dans la réduction de la pauvreté dans les pays en développement, sont de plus en plus au centre des préoccupations aussi bien des politiques que des scientifiques.

La présente étude s’est intéressée à l’analyse de l’impact social des activités entreprises par PAPME dans le Département des Collines et surtout dans les communes de Dassa-zoumè, Savalou, Glazoué et Savè au centre du pays. Par le biais d’une démarche  méthodologique qui a combiné les méthodes quantitative et qualitative, 120 personnes ont été approchées. Au nombre de celles-ci, on dénombre des clients et non clients de PAPMECollines. Les résultats obtenus  permettent de dire que les crédits octroyés par PAPME permettent auxbénéficiaires d’augmenter leurs dépenses sociales d’environ 14 000 FCFA par équivalent adulte. Leurs dépenses sociales ou investissements sur le capital humain (santé, éducation, alimentation, cérémonies diverses, etc.) sont donc améliorées grâce à PAPME.

Workers were classified based on age, type of job, and the number of years they have worked in the factory.Setting: The factory is located in a village and has an ill-equipped clinic run by a nurse.Participants: All the workers present in the factory for the three days of the study participated.Results: Blood pressure increased with age. Increases in blood pressure were not influenced by “cement related jobs” in the factory. The administrative staff had the highest number of “hypertensives”.
