DEDICATION
This research study is dedicated to the glory of our Heavenly Father “ever faithful, ever sure” my help in ages past and my hope for years to come.
I will also like to dedicate this study to my supportive sister, Mrs. Temitope Ojedele who gave all that I need to complete this course, and our lovely mum for her support and prayers all through the programme.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
The extent to which people succeed in life depends on the Almighty God, self determination as well as those elements within the social and material environment. Therefore, one records success when God permits. I am proud to say a big thank you Father for everything you have done in my life and for the journey so far.
My sincere gratitude goes to my project supervisor, Dr. Victor S. Alumona, who despite his many commitments gave me the necessary attention, constructive criticism and unquantifiable contributions to the success of this project. May the Lord God bless you richly with increase
