ABSTRACT:

Forgiveness is an intentional and voluntary act of being free from resentment, grievance and the desire for revenge in order to foster compassion, harmony and peace. Despite its significance, forgiveness is often overlooked in contemporary discourse. This article aims to explore the forgiveness as an indispensable overlooked virtue of mankind. An exploratory research design was employed to guide the inquiry. Qualitative secondary data were collected from journal articles and books. The thematic analysis was applied based on the research focus of exploring .The secondary sources underwent a comprehensive review of theoretical literature. The findings from the comprehensive theoretical literature revealed that forgiveness has been consistently portrayed as a transformative moral force that nurtures empathy, reconciliation, inner peace, moral resilience, and social harmony. The findings reveal that forgiveness stands as a central virtue necessary for sustaining individual wellbeing and collective humanity. This study will benefit students, teachers, scholars, and readers in the future by deepening their understanding of forgiveness as a critical moral value, and it provides them with a meaningful framework in the present to appreciate forgiveness as an essential guide for ethical and compassionate living.

ABSTRACT:

Occupational risk exposure among police personnel has emerged as a critical concern in contemporary organizational and security studies. This paper theoretically examines how workplace factors shape the patterns and intensity of occupational risks faced by police officers in Nigeria. Drawing on insights from occupational sociology and organizational behaviour, the paper argues that factors such as inadequate infrastructure, poor safety culture, excessive workload, limited training opportunities, and weak institutional support significantly increase officers’ vulnerability to physical, psychological, and operational hazards. The analysis adopts a theoretical lens that situates policing within a high-risk occupational environment, where systemic and managerial shortcomings intensify exposure to danger. It contends that improving workplace conditions through effective management practices, structured safety policies, and organizational reforms can substantially mitigate these risks. The paper concludes that understanding workplace determinants is essential not only for enhancing police wellbeing and performance but also for strengthening institutional efficiency and public safety outcomes in Nigeria.

Workplace Redundancy and Retrenchment in Nigeria’s Public Sector: Evidence from Mdas Gombe State

ABSTRACT:

This paper investigates redundancy and retrenchment in Nigeria’s public sector, drawing on evidence from Ministries, Departments, and Agencies in Gombe State. Grounded in labour process theory and the political economy of work, it argues that workforce reductions are shaped by institutional inefficiencies, neoliberal reforms, and fiscal austerity. Rather than purely economic decisions, these practices reflect shifting state priorities and power asymmetries. Redundancy policies often exacerbate inequality, weaken employment security, and erode worker identity. The paper advocates for socially responsive employment frameworks that reconcile organizational efficiency with equity, worker protection, and the broader goals of decent work in developing economies.

INTRODUCTION:

The field of civil engineering has long wrestled with the persistent challenge of steel reinforced concrete (RC) corrosion, a phenomenon that compromises structural integrity, safety, and economic sustainability. Corrosion of steel reinforcement is influenced by a complex interplay of factors, including environmental conditions, concrete quality, chemical composition, and load stresses. Traditional methods of studying and predicting corrosion, such as empirical models and experimental testing, often involve lengthy laboratory procedures and substantial financial investment. In recent years, however, the emergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transformed the landscape of research, offering powerful tools for prediction, monitoring, and mitigation of RC corrosion at a global scale.

ABSTRACT :
The invention of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has greatly enhanced the potential of academic libraries’ services. Purpose: This study explores the awareness and perceptions and utilization of AI among librarians in university libraries in Gombe State, Nigeria. Method: It adopted descriptive survey method. The population of this study are 37 professional librarians in university libraries. Census enumeration sampling technique was used to select the respondents. Questionnaire was used to collect data from the respondents, with the support of two research assistants. Data collected was analyzed and presented in frequency, simple percentages and mean (x). Result: Findings revealed that Chatbots and Dynamed are the AI the respondents were aware of. The respondents have the perceptions that AI technologies can be adopted in university libraries, capable of replacing human librarians in future and AI is a positive development for librarians. Findings further indicated that the respondents perceived that AI is beneficial in university libraries because it provides patron-tailored recommendations to items, can reduce manual and repetitive tasks performed by librarians and facilitates the discovery of new knowledge. But the major factors affecting the adoption of AI include poor internet connectivity and lack of expertise among librarians. Conclusion: This study concluded that librarians’ awareness of AI influences their perceptions of it. It recommends among others that management of university libraries in Gombe State should train their librarians on AI.
