...My name is Sophia and I have been married for the past 9 yrs, I’m blessed with 3 kids (2 boys and a girl) and I have the most amazing hubby. I’m trying to correct the notion that all marriages are wacky, which is not true. It wouldn’t be nice if some single girls out there don’t get to know that marriages can work if you make it happen. I got married 9yrs ago to my hubby, we dated for a year and got married. My friends were like it was too soon since we barely know our selves, I was staying in Abuja while him in Lagos, I just come occasionally to visit him, so after a year, we figured it was time to move to the next level which was very amazing. We got married and I started living the life of a married woman.We loved each other so much but there were things we did not know about each other since it was long distance hence it posed a problem for us. I had very bad mouth as of that time. I do like to challenge everyone including him which he didn’t like. We argued a lot which ends up with several beatings. The first time my hubby hit me, I ran to my aunt’s place and later went back home, it happened again and again, but the whole thing was after the beatings, he comes back to say sorry and to tell me how the things I said to him really did hurt and how he’s hot tempered and I’m hot tempered and all. After a year, I told myself I had to work on myself, I stopped talking too much, prayed more often and asked God to help me with my temper, I stopped challenging him and always make...

A total of 100 SMEs were randomly selected from a cross section of a population of all SMEs spread around some states of Nigeria and covering virtually all forms of enterprise. Participants were selected through a simple random sampling. The responses to the questionnaires were complemented with personal interviews of some SMEs operators.

...CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1 THE PROBLEM AND ITS SETTING Every industry operates within two sets of constraints. Internal constraints are those problems within the organization and over which the enterprise has reasonable amount of control. Personnel problem, capacity utilization and the techniques or process of production are some of such factors. External factors could pose formidable problems to an enterprise. The problems are made more severe by the fact that these problems are caused by factors outside the competence of a given enterprise to control. Examples of such factors are government regulation, traditional or cultural values etc. The bakery industry in Nigeria has been a victim of externally imposed constraint. Hitherto, bakers depended on local millers who produced their vital raw materials, flour from imported wheat. Government banned the importation of wheat and wheat product in 1986, thereby, sending shock waves to this very well established and expanding industry. Wheat products has started to consume an unacceptable amount of the nation’s foreign exchange as the table 1.1.1 below clearly demonstrates, as well as figure 1.1.1 in page 3. Table 1.1.1 Foreign Exchange Spent on Wheat and Food Import 1981 – 1985 Import 1981 1982 1983 1984 1985 N,000 N,000 N,000 N,000 N,000 Total food 1,820,215 1,642,245 1,296,714 843,246 946,567 Wheat 159,422 79,629 255,717 243,067 327,870 C/o of total 9% 5% 20% 29% 35%` Source: Federal Office of Statistics...

Some people are actually repulsed by the idea of working for someone else. they object to a system where rewards are often based than acomplishment. other people decide to become enterpreneurs because they are disillusioned by the politics involved in getting ahead in an established profession, some are tired of trying to promote a product, service or way of doing business that is outside the main operations of a large company. in contrast, some people are attracted to enterprenuership simply for the sake of advantages of starting a business, these include: · enterpreneur are their own...

Section 3 Section 1 How have social enterprises fared better than their for-profit rivals during the recession? The economic recession has had a negative impact on the performance of most businesses in the UK. However, this appears not to be the case with social enterprises. During the recession, most social enterprises seem to be growing and have reaped more benefits as they seek to achieve their goals. Social investment has remained vibrant even in the face of the economic recession. Unlike the for–profit enterprises, social enterprises derive their capital and labour for philanthropic, government and commercial bodies. This means that social enterprises have a great pool, of investors as well as a greater capacity to attract talented and more skilled labour. Legal structures in the UK have been reformed...
