Abstract: This paper examined corruption inside the Nigeria Police Force as an ethical relapse that confronts the organization. It provides an overview of the historical incidentals and founding of the Nigeria Police Force as an institution with the accountability of protecting life and property, and maintaining peace and order in the country.

Abstract: Although the world over, there is an emphasis on the need for clarity on local governance procedures and actual practice, in post land reform Zimbabwe there is a contest with regards to the local governance. There is a contest at the institutional level and the practice level. This study sought to explore how local governance systems operate in post-land reform contexts, how such existing local governance architecture impacts on citizen participation in local development. The study revealed that, while the land reform areas fall under the jurisdiction of Rural District Council Act, the continued politicking by the ruling party, resulted in the area falling under the jurisdiction of Traditional Leaders Act. As traditional leaders gear to exercise their authority, local and national elites and authorities also compete to exercise superintendence over these areas. In the end, the citizens are subject to multiple forms of authority.......

Abstract: Islamic art involves a unique sense of beauty, other than that of the Western art. The artistic elements and the design principles that form a work of art not only continue their existence, but also get shaped within the frame of its own discipline in the art of illumination. The artist puts forth a unique work of art by sticking to these rules. In this study, the equivalents of the artistic elements and design principles, as well as their symbolic meanings, and the manners of application thereof in the art of illumination are assessed on the basis of both past works of art, and contemporary manners of application thereof. It is consequently ascertained that, the effect of depth based on light-shadow as being seen in the Western art is not observed in the art of illumination, the background arrangement is predominant............

Abstract: Thepurpose of this study is to analyze the implications of the principle of freedom of contract in the banking business for bank customers.

But in practice the position of the creditor is more dominant than the debtor/customer resulting in an imbalance The contents of the banking credit agreement determine the balance between the creditor/bank and the debtor/customer...........

Abstract: Wordsworth‟s passion for Nature is well known as De Quincey puts it: "Wordsworth had his passion of Nature fixed in his blood. It was a necessity of his being, like that of a mulberry leaf to the silk-worm and through his commerce with Nature did he live and breathe" Wordsworth loves all objects of Nature; but he is concerned for less with the sensuous manifestation that delight most of the poets of Nature, then with the spiritual that he finds underlying these manifestations. On the other hand, Frost is a great lover of nature and his love, too, like, animals, birds that of Wordsworth, is local and regional. It is the region that lies to the North of Boston, which forms the background to his poetry. It is the hills and dales, rivers and forests.................
