This research sought to assess the impact of TQM on customer satisfaction with regards to the downstream petroleum sector in Ghana. A sample size of 360 respondents, consisting of 290 customers, 60 staffs and 10 management staffs across different companies within Accra was used for the study. The study revealed that successful implementation of TQM has a major and significant impact on customers’ satisfaction. TQM relies of the principle of stakeholder participation and involvement. There was however a shortfall with this principle as it was identified that staff of companies within the industry did not adequately involve themselves in rolling out the TQM concept. The study recommends management of the company to ensure full participation of all. The study revealed that the successful implementation of TQM has a significant effect customer satisfaction. However, the principle of participation and involvement by staff in the quality management chain was found not to be encouraging as staffs have not been adequately involved in rolling out the TQM concept in their companies. The study concludes that management of the companies in the sector should ensure full participation of all employees in the implementation of TQM through effective communication mechanisms to integrate quality disciplines into the culture and quality service activities of the company.

The study was designed to identify the bacteria associated with urinary tract infection among children attending Federal staff hospital, Abuja and to ascertain their antibiogram. Mid-stream urine samples were collected from the subjects enrolled into the study and were cultured into Cysteine Lactose electrolyte deficient medium and Blood agar and incubated appropriately. The plates were read and isolated were subjected to biochemical reactions and antibiogram were carried out on pathogenic organisms. The results showed the overall prevalence of 10.8% urinary tract infections among the studied subjects. The females subject had the highest prevalence of 91.7% while the male counterpart recorded 8.3%. The age groups 1-5 years had the highest prevalence of 50.0% while least prevalent of 16.7% were recorded by age group 6 to 10 years old.

This study uses a qualitative research method to examine consumers, stakeholders, and policymakers' perceptions of NAFDAC anti-counterfeit technologies and interventions regarding counterfeit drugs in Nigeria. Participants were selected using convenience sampling, and data was collected through an online interview. Data were analysed using thematic analysis. Stakeholders emphasised the importance of NAFDAC having a comprehensive anti-counterfeiting strategy and implementing measures such as checking for NAFDAC registration numbers, inspecting packaging, and requesting seller receipts to identify genuine medicines. Policymakers at NAFDAC acknowledge the seriousness of the problem and recognise the roles of stakeholders in implementing anti-counterfeiting interventions. They emphasise the need for effective communication, engagement, and collaboration with healthcare professionals. Consumers express concerns about the accessibility to good quality medicines and the prevalence of substandard and counterfeit drugs. However, consumers also demonstrate a willingness to support NAFDAC's efforts and show a preference for quality medicines, which is a positive indicator for the Nigerian pharmaceutical industry. The findings underscore the importance of continuous efforts to raise awareness and implement effective anti-counterfeiting strategies to safeguard public health and combat the growing threat of fake drugs.

Findings depict that teachers were aware of ICT resources but do not utilize them while teaching. Many constraints were identified including lack of computer literacy on the part of some teachers, lack of ICT facilities, lack of funds, poor power supply, and no adequate knowledge of the use of internet among others. It was recommended that for quality assurance and for effective ICT integration in curriculum, teachers should be encouraged through workshops, seminars and conferences to be ICT literate; stake holders in education should join hands together in making ICT pedagogical and methodological issues fully integrated in the teaching and learning process in secondary education for quality assurance.

The first stage involved the population being stratified into male and female, public and private schools before a sample of 400 school aged children were randomly selected. Two instruments were utilized: The Social Well-Being Scale (SWBS) and The Emotional Well-Being Scale (EWBS). The result revealed a significant difference (β = .223, t = 3.667, p < .05) leading to the conclusion that there was a significant impact of Covid-19 on emotional wellbeing among school-aged children in Minnesota, USA. Also, there is a significant impact of Covid-19 on social wellbeing among school-aged children in Minnesota, USA (β = .607, t = 12.301, p < .05).
