This study examined the objectification of women in selected Kipsigis popular songs. The researcher purposively picked 15 songs from speakers of Kipsigis popular artists, 30 respondents and five composers. An interview schedule was used to obtain the relevant information from the respondents and composers of the songs. The study was guided by Politeness Theory by Brown and Levinson (1978). The results of the study indicated that artists objectify women as instruments, female sex organ as food and a place while sexual intercourse is portrayed as a journey, war and work to mitigate their offensiveness. It is believed that the findings of this study would be of great significance in information dissemination to the media, schools and churches in censuring and sensitization of songs that objectify women. Also, the results of this study is expected to be instrumental in mitigating offensive expressions that cause harm and shame to the listeners of Kipsigis popular songs through proper interpretation of words and phrases that objectify","PeriodicalId":191047,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Innovative Research","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134287573","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aim: This study aimed to contribute to the vision of ‘the End TB Strategy 2016-2035’ through the determination of the current BCG policy implementation on vaccine uptake by estimating the BCG vaccination rate in IMO State, Southeast Nigeria. Method: A cross-sectional and community-based study was conducted in Ideato-North local government area (LGA) of IMO State, south east Nigeria; from 2013-2017. Cluster sampling method was used for household selection. A total of 210 children aged 0-11months and their mothers/caregivers were included in the study. Data was collected using a pre-tested, interviewer administered questionnaire, and from review of vaccination records in the national program on immunization unit, public health department of the LGA of study and analyzed using SPSS version 25. Result: Only a minority of the children (21.9%) were vaccinated with BCG by card-plus history whereas none at all (0%) was vaccinated with BCG from the review of the vaccination records. The factors responsible for the poor BCG vaccination were BCG multi-dose vial policy/fear of vaccine wastage, poor turn-out for vaccination, place of child’s birth, mother’s knowledge on vaccination and mother’s education level. Conclusion: There is need for a review of the multi-dose vial policy, ensure policy implementation; periodic training and re-training of the health care personnel, human capacity development, data monitoring/evaluation, as well as sensitization campaigns among others, as ways to improve the people’s awareness on and uptake of BCG vaccination, a key component of the very first pillar in the End TB Strategy.","PeriodicalId":191047,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Innovative Research","volume":"125 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133327983","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Like in other parts of the country the health sector in Nakuru County has been facing numerous challenges under the devolved systems. Specifically the study sought to establish the influence of labour-only sub-contracting on procurement performance in public hospitals in Nakuru County. Descriptive survey research design was used. The target population was all 80 respondents involved in the procurement process in health facilities. Since the population was small the researcher used census technique to incorporate all the targeted respondents. Questionnaire was used to collect the primary data desirable for the study. Primary data was collected by administering questionnaires to the respondents in the hospitals. Data was analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistical methods.The study concluded that in most cases specialty sub-contracting result to increased cost of the contract and this influences the performance of the procurement in public hospitals. The researcher concluded that labour-only sub-contracting is usually applicable when time is of essence in the execution of a contract. From the conclusion the researcher recommended that the public hospitals ought to adopt the labor only subcontracting because it is applicable when contract demand special consultancy services and when the execution of the contract is labour intensive.","PeriodicalId":191047,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Innovative Research","volume":"126 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123216056","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our research focused on condition monitoring which is a form of predictive maintenance for brake pad failure for heavy-duty vehicles asset. The failure of a machine can stop production and cause a huge number of losses of money and people, moreover, it may take several months to order a new one. At the same time, excessive maintenance actions may slow production. Existing works of literature on predicting maintenance were studied in this research. Different machine learning techniques have been used for predicting maintenance, and to the best of our knowledge, Neural Network was only used for the prediction of the brake pad failure. Neural Network makes accurate prediction if the dataset is very large and also consume a lot of computational power. However, due to the fact that the problem is a classification problem, it is a necessity to carry out performance check of the best supervised model for the dataset downloaded from GitHub. Gaussian Naïve bayes, Decision tree and K-Nearest Neighbour are used to check for accuracy of our dataset. The dataset was divided into training and testing data where the training data has larger rows than the testing data. We then compared the performances of the selected supervised algorithm. Python is the preferred language used in this research. For our result, we showed that Decision tree performed well more than Gaussian Naïve bayes and K-Nearest Neighbour with an accuracy of 95%.","PeriodicalId":191047,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Innovative Research","volume":"144 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130190220","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
