For a successful business endeavor, accounting is considered as the conduit and essential tool of achieving its target. It has always concerned itself with determining how a business is doing. The level of book keeping and accounting in SMEs have created many problems against the effective operation and accountability of these businesses. The study seek to determine the extent to which Small and Medium Scale Enterprises in Odo-Ona Nla/ Idi-Ayunre ward use accounting record keeping system in their business and to examine their perception towards accounting record keeping systems in their business. Achieving this objective, the paper adopts a quantitative and qualitative approach in which a semi structured questionnaire was used as the main data collection method. The researcher used purposive and simple random sampling techniques to reduce the possibility of research limitations. A total of 50 semi-structured questionnaires were distributed to various SMEs in Odo-Ona Nla/ Idi-Ayunre Ward at Oluyole Local Government in Ibadan. Forty-three (43) were returned and completely answered for the purpose of data analysis.  The primary data collected were analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS). The analyzed results are presented into graphical and descriptive representations such as tables, percentages, and graph.  The findings indicate that majority of SMEs that maintain accounting records fail to keep complete accounting records and it also indicate that SMEs have many issues triggers to have negative attitudes in compliance to proper record keeping for their business, including cost associated, Time consuming and Tax avoidance. The paper concludes that a concerted effort should be made by the government and other stakeholders to set out proper guidelines for record keeping and proposes that SMEs owners be trained on key skills for records and information management which will enable them keep records of their business activities.

Purpose: Even though the government had taken many initiatives for the empowerment of minority women but the success of such initiatives is questionable. A strong tool for perfect empowerment requires financial independence and self-reliant, and this can be achieved only through financial support. With this intention, a present study was conducted to evaluate the impact of awareness and utilisation of various welfare schemes on the empowerment of minority women. Design/Methodology/Approach: A study was conducted in Karnataka by taking 388 minority women as a sample unit. Simple random sampling techniques were used to select sample units and primary data was collected using a structured questionnaire. Hypotheses are developed to support the primary objective and tested with simple regression analysis. Findings/Result: The study found that minority women have a very low level of awareness and utilisation of government welfare schemes which has adversely affected the overall development of minority women. This study suggested to take awareness programs for minority women in rural areas to achieve overall empowerment in India. Paper Type: Analytical Paper

The study investigates the Challenges of internally displaced children in Makurdi Metropolis of Benue State, Nigeria. Three research questions guided the study. The sample of the study was drawn from children between the ages of 12-18 years living in Internally Displaced Camps (IDPs) in Makurdi. Simple random sampling technique was used to select a sample size of 300 for the study. Primary data were used for the study specifically obtained using well-structured questionnaire titled internally displaced children (IDC), data collected was analysed using mean and standard deviation. Findings of the study on social life of internally displaced children in Makurdi revealed that Lack of finance to celebrate social activities such as birthday parties, naming ceremonies and sports competitions (4.46), Children appear dirty and tattered due to lack of clothing (3.40), also the findings on financial challenges indicates Low level of income due to lack of business and means of livelihood (3.62), Depends on people for financial assistance (begging) (3.58). Furthermore, the study on feeding pattern of internally displaced children shows that children hardly eat twice a day (3.55), lack required food nutrients such as protein, vitamins and minerals (3.40). The study therefore concludes that insecurity challenges should be tackled by government to ensure that household returns to their various communities. Finally the study recommends improvement of social life of internally displaced children should be given uppermost attention the government and non- government organisations responsible for child upbringing. The governments should make frantic effort to ensure adequate provision of basic amenities such as water, food and shelter. Emergency healthcare and education (schools) should be provided in IDPs camps. Good food should be provided for children in internally displaced camps to avoid malnutrition that leads to ill health. Causes insecurity and other crisis that leads to displacement of families should be given lasting solutions by government and communities concerned. The Children should be encouraged to adopt a good environmental sanitation which will go a long way to help prevent them from contracting some sickness and disease.

Rapid and haphazard urbanization has triggered environmental hazards in Bangladesh. Analogously, Netrokona Municipal is also facing problems due to unplanned and unstable urban infrastructural development. The quest of the study was to explore the status of current urban drainage system and its problem. Therefore, a preliminary reconnaissance survey was accomplished in the study area and then a semi-structured questionnaire was designed. By adopting simple random sampling method, the study area was surveyed covering 50 respondents in different wards to collect primary data. Results revealed that poor drainage system (PDS) is one of the most liable factors for environmental deterioration. The maximum urban drainage system was found unclosed with number of 49 (i.e., 98%). It was 34 drains were made of brick, while 17 were worst type, 32 had odor problem, 20 were not well designed, 29 had inadequacy of drains,18 with poor technical fitness, 22 wastes disposal in gutters,18 had clogging of ditches & drains, and 15 with broken road surface respectively. The consequent major environmental and health problems were flash-flooding (42%), and skin disease (38%) respectively. In case of public opinion, the highest percentage (i.e., 30%) suggested to stoutly prohibit dumping of garbage into gutters. PDS was found strongly positive correlated with its effects on environment (r=0.98) and on public health (r=0.91). Thereby, present PDS affects the environment as-well-as public health by enhancing frequent flash-floods and spreading diseases within the study area.Journal of Institute of Science and TechnologyVolume 22, Issue 1, July 2017, Page: 165-178
