TL;DR: In this article, the authors highlighted the different sources of renewable energy which are critical to solve the lingering problem of electricity generation in Nigeria and found that it is much easier for individuals to drive this transition to 100% renewable energy than to continue to depend on government forever.
Abstract: Electricity is the basic tool that drives industrialization, technological advancement, engineering transformation and economic growth all over the world. The situation of Nigeria's electricity power sector is one that has defied virtually every effort made to resurrect it from its state of dilapidation. A major concern is “can there ever be stable and cost effective electricity in Nigeria?” The authors are positive this can be realised, but not without considering other forms of electricity energy resources available in Nigeria other than the conventional sources of electricity which is currently the mainstay. A deliberate transition from conventional sources of electricity energy to renewable and environmental friendly sources is critical for national development, even though recent development show the Nigerian government is backsliding in adopting renewable energy technologies. This paper will be used to highlight the different sources of renewable energy which is critical to solve the lingering problem of electricity generation in Nigeria. Hence, based on the literature, modeled scenarios and field experience, the authors discovered it is much easier for individuals to drive this transition to 100% renewable energy than to continue to depend on government forever.

TL;DR: In this paper, the potential of marble dust as a stabilizing additive to red tropical soils was evaluated and the results showed that the geotechnical parameters of red tropical soil are improved substantially by the addition of marble sand; plasticity was reduced by 20 to 33% and strength and California bearing ratio increased by 30 to 46% and 27 to 55% respectively.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The findings suggest that the leaves of Aspilia africana possess anti-inflammatory activity in acute and certain aspects of chronic inflammation, which may derive from inhibition of prostaglandins synthesis, inhibition of increased vascular permeability, inhibited of neutrophil migration into inflamed tissues, and stimulation of lymphocyte accumulation, which might enhance tissue repair and healing.
