According to her, in line with World Organization for Animal Health (OIE), all Veterinary professionals are required to work and salvage the lives of animals and the public at large.

She described the Veterinary doctor as a person, who is trained and authorized by the Veterinary statutory body (VCN) to take care of the health of the animal.

Baju explained that the Veterinary Council of Nigeria was established in 1952 with the mandate of regulating the quality of Training and Practices of Veterinary Medicine in Nigeria.

She added that some of the functionsnof the council includes determining the standards of knowlegde and skills to be attained by persons seeking to be registered under the Veterinary Surgeons Act as Veterinary Surgeons and of raising those standards from time to time as the circumstances may permit.

Don seeks use of social studies as instrument of nation’s building

by Editor
written by Editor

A Professor in the Department of Social Sciences Education, University of Ilorin, Abdulraheem Yusuf on Thursday said that for Nigeria to survive as a nation, it must include social studies curriculum at all levels of education system in the country.

The University Don stated this while delivering the 223 Inaugural Lecture of the Institution, titled ‘Socialising or Civicising the Citizens: The Quandary of a Failing Nation’.

Yusuf emphasized that one major means of inculcating and cultivating discipline among the citizens is by reintroducing social studies at all levels of education in the country, which he said will make Nigeria to grow into vibrant county and realise the principles of a just and egalitarian society.

He said that a disciplined citizen observes the laws of the land without being noticed and adheres to solid moral principles. 

According to him, teaching of social studies seems to be the only way to resolve Nigeria’s national problems for political and economic agreements. 

“The teaching of the subject, at all levels of our education, will neutralize geographical and ethnic diversities and result in the establishment of a united Nigeria with responsible leadership.

“Without committed, disciplined and purpose-driven leadership at all levels, no action plan will succeed, no matter how noble it seems. We commonly see that the majority of those in positions of power lack the necessary skills and those who have those skills are not in positions of authority. This circumstance has resulted in inept leadership and it’s attendant frustrated citizenry.

“We break laws just because we want to take undue advantage of the other people. In order to gain power, we betray ourselves, we renew our hopelessness at every election, we sell our votes in order to elect mediocre, promise breakers and ineffective leaders, we provide questionable certificates to attain power, we jump or shunt queues and we hoard necessities in order to drive up prices, as evidenced by the frequent petrol scarcity”, he added.

Yusuf, who had earlier described study of social studies as the subject that covers national values, leadership, followership, unity, equity, conscience and integrity, as well as honesty, truthfulness and justice, said that these are effective tools for national development and also serve as powerful inspirations for Nigerians to support the nation’s unity, consciousness and peace as well as to love, respect and care for one another.

“Carefully chosen social issues such as drug trafficking, insecurity, poverty, unemployment, cultism and human trafficking are addressed in the subject. It not only throws light on these challenges but also offers solutions. Students who acquire these value constructs grow into more receptive and responsible citizens.

“Having a solid understanding of social studies will help elect trustworthy and responsible people to positions of authority. Students who have taken social studies classes will make better leaders and be expected to work to better the lives of others.

While making comparison between social studies and civic education, Prof. Yusuf said that since the start of civil education in Nigeria in September 2007, our rights have received more attention than our values as citizens of the country.

He said that civic education attempts to teach people democratic values, norms and legal practices. It helps students realize the idea that those who lack literacy or have limited awareness of their legal rights and obligations would be unable to exercise them.

“Since then, everything related to having the correct understanding of our values, environments, and ourselves has been lacking, except for rights. All we have in the current situation is my life, my existence, even if it means jeopardizing the future of the country. We urgently need social studies for the country to survive and flourish.

“Nigeria is at a fork in the road between choosing social studies which is aimed at understanding ourselves and our environments or choosing civic education which focuses on ourselves and our rights”, he stressed.

The educationist, however, recommended that social studies should be reintroduced, taught effectively and diligently studied at all levels of education, while its curriculum must be reviewed on a regular basis to account for change in society, content, and techniques to meet the changing requirements of individuals and the nation.

“The teaching of social studies at all levels of education will lead to a retracing of the lost path of holistic nationhood, which is already developing a tick forest and preventing Nigeria from progressing. This means that as we are doing now, a conscious revision by appropriate agencies in collaboration with experts in social studies will enable Nigeria to achieve the overall goal of using social studies as the best instrument for achieving holistic national development, because we must socialize before we civicise”, he said.

by Editor
written by Editor

The Management of the University of Ilorin is deeply concerned about the enormity of the transportation challenges currently being faced by our students.

We want to assure all that measures are being put in place to ease this difficulty in the shortest possible time.

According to a press statement signed by the Director of Corporate Affairs, University of Ilorin, Kunle Akogun, the Management is currently engaging with the Kwara State Government on the need to conclude the Flyover construction on the Tipper Garage axis of the University Road timely and the provision of more strategic interventions to ease the burden of our students.

The management is also considering the possibility of reviving the virtual lecture option, especially for large classes, to reduce the necessity of having large number of students on the road at peak periods.

Arrangements had already been concluded to bring in big buses for massive movement of students but they could not be deployed yet due to the Flyover construction on the University Road.

The management, however, appeals to our better by far students to exercise patience while concerted efforts are being made to resolve the unfortunate transportation challenges.

The welfare of our students remain the mainstay of the Management and this will not be compromised for any reason.

Food security: Don seeks stronger ties between govts, researchers

by Editor
written by Editor

A Professor of Plant Biology, in the Faculty of Life Sciences, University of Ilorin, Professor Oba Toyin Mustapha, has advocated for stronger ties between the governments and researchers, stressing that this will guarantee food security in the country.

Mustapha, who said this, while delivering the 221 Inaugural Lecture of the Institution with the theme “Chromosome and its Dynamicity for Classification and Food Security”, said such alliance will assist Nigeria to achieve food security.

The University Don encouraged government to evolve a policy that will create a synergy between Universities and industries, which he said will go a long way to make them benefit from researches carried out in the Universities.

He lamented that students are shying away from biosystems for lack of understanding the concept.

Mustapha stressed that to boost crop performance, extension workers should encourage and educate farmers to use developed varieties produced as a result of researches in the Universities and other research institutes.

He also charged the federal government on the need to massively invest in the biosystematic laboratories equipment to make preparation of metaphase chromosomes easier for students.

The Professor of Plant Biology emphasised that the University should endeavour to establish a Molecule Biology Laboratory in the Department of Plant Biology to augment the service rendered by Central Research Laboratory ot the University of Ilorin.

According to him, “research institutes owned by the Federal Government should be well funded to enhance sustainable food security.”

Speaking on the theme, the lecturer disclosed that the classifying organisms based on similarities helps to provide order to the thousands of living organisms on earth. “The urge to classify plants has been with man since he first set his foot on this planet, borne of a need to know what he should eat, avoid, use as cures for ailments and utilize for his shelter”.

He noted that the need for some system of classification is absolute, for it is only by first naming organisms and then grouping them in recognizable categories that one can begin to sort out and understand the vast array which exists.

Mustapha revealed that considering the number of kinds of plants known, it is obvious that the problem of classifying them all is enormous. Almost 300,000 species of green plants are currently recognized, in addition to over 100,000 fungi, a few thousand bacteria and other microscopic organisms which some biologist would classify as plants.

He however stated, “Initially, this information was accumulated and stored in the human brain and passed on to generations verbally in dialects restricted to small communities.

“Slowly, man learnt to put his knowledge in writing for others to share and improve upon. We have now reached a stage whereby a vast amount of information can be conveniently stored and utilized for far reaching concussions aimed at developing ideal systems of classification, which depict the putative relationships between organisms”, he added.

He further noted that a major achievement in the study of chromosomes science is the understanding of its Dynamicity, replacing the concept of its uniformity and monotonous behaviour. 

“Allelic diversity and heterozygosity occur through mutation either naturally or artificially and permit the generation of novel phenotypic variation. It is therefore, pertinent to explore these changes to identify and name plants”, he said.

He however suggested that if Nigeria must grow her economy, the leaders must address the issue of sustainable food security by providing enabling environment for a top-notch research on chromosomes behaviour.

He suggested further that, “there is need to encourage and adopt molecular marker assisted breeding to accelerate yield as it offers tremendous potentials to enhance productivity. For proper and reliable identification of plants, advance molecular study using barcoding is proposed as the best way of resolving taxonomic difficulties or confusions.

“Scientific names of plants being the keys to their literature, biologists should endeavour to familiarize themselves with scientific names of plants for better understanding of biodiversity”, he added.

Varsity Don identifies solutions to child mortality

by Editor
written by Editor

A professor in the Department of Paediatrics and Child Health, University of Ilorin, Aishatu Ahmed Gobir, has said that infections remain major causes of mortality and morbidity in children, particularly those under the age of five years.

Gobir said this on Thursday in Ilorin, while delivering the 219th Inaugural Lecture of Unilorin, titled: ‘Child Survival: Obstacles and Opportunities Through the Eyes of a Paediatrician in Practice and Research”.

She submitted that the main challenges in early life stem from infectious diseases, especially those affecting the respiratory system like bacterial pneumonia.

The Don explained that respiratory Infections are diseases caused by different organisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites, protozoa and others.

“When these disease-causing organisms invade the human body, they result in acute or chronic disease after an incubation period. Infectious diseases are common causes of illnesses and deaths among children”, she said.

She identified malnutrition, lack of immunization, lack of exclusive breastfeeding as risk and predisposing factors responsible for respiratory Infections.

Other factors highlighted includes environmental factors. “Poor housing with poor ventilation and indoor crowding, exposure to indoor pollutants such as cigarette smoke, biomass from cooking, automobile and industrial pollutants are recognized factors associated with more episodes of acute respiratory Infections and mortality.

“Large families increase the chances of child mixing with adults with respiratory infections, thereby creating a clear risk for the transmission of microbes. Day-care attendance also offers opportunities for the transmission of respiratory microbes among many children with suboptimal immune protection “, she added.

Gobir, who described Paediatrics as a branch of medicine that specifically deals with the health and care of those from birth to adolescents, referred to child health as a state of physical, mental, social, emotional and intellectual well-being and not merely the absence of diseases.

Proffering solutions to child mortality rates, Gobir said that routine immunization remains effective and efficient in controlling many of the respiratory diseases.

She called for the revitalization of the primary health care which will eliminate complications that may arise from a late presentation at the higher levels of health care which are not geographically accessible to those in rural areas.

Other solutions she mentioned were: microcredit schemes and social security for families need to be strengthened, hygienic practices, sustainability of the school feeding programme, while research and development must focus on the areas of needs because it is a major opportunity for child survival.

“Improve personal hygiene by observing cough etiquettes (covering the month while coughing and turning away from people), sneezing into a bent elbow, washing hands with soap and water to remove germs picked up from surfaces, sneezing or coughing.

“Early diagnosis and prompt treatment of cases, strengthening routine immunization, exclusive breastfeeding, provision of micronutrient supplementation and reduction of household pollutants such as smoking and cooking with charcoal and kerosene stove among others”, Gobir added.
