Title

This should be concise and explain the nature of the paper. If the paper was given, wholly or in part, at a scientific meeting, this should be stated in a footnote.

Authors' names

These should include with one surname followed by initials of authors and the address where the work was carried out. The name, address, and email address of the corresponding author should be indicated clearly.

Abstract
Abstract of 250 words (maximum) should be provided abridging, concise introduction, methods used, results, significance of results and conclusion of the study.

 

 

Introduction

This should state the problem investigated, the aim of the work and previous relevant work with appropriate references, and must indicate clearly the advance in knowledge or contribution to knowledge.

Materials and Method

Clear and sufficient detail to permit the work to be repeated by others, if desired. Only new techniques need be described in detail; known methods must have adequate references.

Results

These should be presented concisely, with tables or illustrations for clarity.

Figures
Good quality and clearly readable Figures will only be accepted. Graphs should be drawn in CorelDraw or Microsoft Excel. A resolution of 300 DPI (Dots Per Inch) or higher, for good quality Picture printing.

References

The American Psychology Association (APA) system of referencing should be used. The in-text citation should be in full if they have one or two authors (e.g.: Michael, 2023; Ogbe & Segun, 2024), for multiple-authored cases they should be cited as Haruna et al. (2019). Full References should be provided in the references section. References should be listed in alphabetical order at the end of the paper, giving all the authors with their initials after their respective surnames. Give the full title of the paper in the language in which it appeared or an accurate English translation. Journal titles should be abbreviated as in Chemical Abstracts or Biological Abstracts. If the journal is not included in these lists, then give the title in full.

Where possible, the Digital Object Identifier (DOI) for the reference should be included at the end of the reference. This style and order should be followed: author's surname, initial(s) of forename(s), paper title, journal title (in italic), volume number (in bold), first and last page numbers, year of publication (in brackets) e.g.
