Item Restricted Access 100 Characteristics of faith, faith fundamentals: your essential guide to extraordinary success(Kano, Kano State (4 Shaba street Hadejia road): Kingswit Bloc Publishers, 2025) ILORI, Bimbo● Foundation of Faith: Faith is the bedrock of our spiritual journey, the solid foundation upon which our relationship with God is built. ● The Nature of Faith: Faith is more than just a concept; it is the very essence of our walk with God. ● The Power of Faith: Faith is a force that moves mountains, opens doors, and brings the impossible into reality. ● The Journey/Process of Faith: Faith is not an event but a journey. It is a process of growth, refinement, and unwavering trust in God. ● The Actions of Faith: Faith is not passive, it is active. The Bible teaches that "faith without works is dead" (James 2:26 NIV). ● The Rewards of Faith: God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him (Hebrews 11:6 NIV).Item Open Access The Political economy of good governance: paper presented at the ICPP3 conference Singapore(Western Canada, USA : University of Saskatchewan Campus: Johnson-Shoyama Graduate School of Public Policy, 2017) ATKINSON, Michael M.; Murray Fulton■ A political economy model of good governance ■ Figure 1The political economy of governance arrangements ■ The economics and politics of governance ■ Figure 2 Payoffs and power ■ Corruption ■ Figure 3 Corruption and governance ■ Ignorance ■ Figure 4 Power, governance and transaction costs ■ Figure 5 Power, governance and the failure to foresee conflictItem Open Access Does small really make a difference?

The arrival of a baby with God's grace and mercy assures an infant to nurse, a toddler to raise, a child to train, an adolescent to be established, and eventually an adult to stand and take over! ■ Understanding The Contract: Childbearing or procreation is a God-man transaction with both parties in synergistic roles. ■ The Priming Phase (Preparation for Conception): The preconception period is the appropriate time for laying the foundation for all the desired experiences and manifestations. ■ Onboarding Phase (Conception and takeoff): Take-off in the context of "A Little Wonder" is the onset of conception through gestation. ■ Landing Phase (Ready for delivery): You have come this far, definitely prepared. God, who has been your help and has become your song, will do valiantly on your behalf. ■ The Waiting Wife: Waiting is not a trivial issue, I admit, particularly with certain persons, and (traditionally) in certain parts of the world.Item Open Access A Misleading tale by moonlight:(Lagos State(143, Iju Road, Ifako Ijaiye, Harmony Court Estate, 2 Hope Street): GOSELD Nigeria Ltd., 2023) OCHONOGOR, KelichaPart one ■ Cast: Uli, Esther, Friend 1, Friend 2, Man ■ Prologue: Uli is a woman quite close to her old age. She has no child and her husband died long before the story. She came upon a baby in the bush and is willing to do anything to make sure the baby remains hers forever, including running away from her old village.The journey was rough since it was a hurried flight. How would they cope in this new environment? ■ Cast: Uli main character; Usula: Uli's neighborIna Abusa: the midwife ■The story: Everyone wanted the touch of King Uguta and Asari, even at just eight years of age, was beginning to desire the touch of King Uguta's too. Having stayed there for the past seven years, she came to regard herself as a true citizen of Obiaruku. Uli always regaled her with the story of the king's touch. She always said that Asari's mother was touched by King Uguta also; and that if Asari would behave, her turn would come one day - when King Uguta would touch her too. She carefully made sure Asari never found out that she was picked from the bush.So far, Asari has been happy. Uli has been the mother she should be. Would things stay that way forever? ■ Cast: Uli, Esther, Friend 1, Friend 2, ManItem Restricted Access The journey of Grace: giving thanks in all things(Lagos: New Era Foundation, 2025) TINUBU, Oluremi Oluremi Tinubu in 2021.
