Parenting is a cardinal part of social orientation and it plays a very critical role in a child’s developments and the character and traits that he forms during this process. Parenting is a guiding compass to engineer what the child eventually turns out to be in society and how he contributes to the society that he is in. This study examines the socio-cultural effects of the lack of proper parenting, using the drama, No Pennies for Mama by Ahmed Yerima. Through the lens of this drama, we are able to see these socio-cultural effects on the victims of lack of proper parenting. This study uses the content analysis methods of gathering and analyzing data. It finds that the effect of poor patenting has a dastardly devastating impact on both the child, his or her family and the society These children who are victims of poor parenting grow up with values that are both culturally and socially anomalous causing pain to both themselves, their families and society. This study recommends that would-be parents should learn the art and science of parenting before embarking on its journey, learning what works and what does not work. Dramatists should write more drama that emphasize the detrimental effects of poor parenting and they should be performed to audiences in as many cities as possible, so that people can learn to take parenting as seriously as it should be taken.

Waste Management and Environmental Protection for Community Sustainable Development in Nigeria (Published)
Waste, environmental protection and community sustainability are products of development, and most daily activities of human beings generate waste. The negative consequences of economic development have long been observed by eminent economic theorists, such as Smith, Marx, Malthus, Ricardo and Mill (Clarin, 2018). There are some indicators that show that most countries have failed to achieve sustainable development, and some countries are far from it. There has also been a growing concern about the environmental limit to growth and development as well as the imperative of environmental quality and management. As a result, this paper firstly conceptualized the following terms-“Waste”,“Waste Management”,“Environment”, “Environmental Sustainability”, Community, Community Sustainability, and Sustainable Development. The paper further discussed the composition of waste materials in Nigeria. It again examined various international and national measures or activities taken in relation to the concept of community sustainable development.

Furthermore, several measures taken internationally and nationally to ameliorate the negative impacts of wastes on environment were concisely discussed.

It talks about the knowledge of our field which allows us to identify the gap which our research could fill and also strength’s the topic that we chosen for our research. The literature review will help us to find and select appropriate measurement instruments. (P.Shakila, 2014) The literature review is needed because it is a necessary skill both for researchers and for practitioners of a profession which claims to be founded on a knowledge base and also to locate and summarize the findings of research on a given topic not uncritically but assessing the evidence and for argument to sustain the conclusions. It is also useful to obviate the need for fresh research or to replicate the study. (P.Shakila, 2014) Polit and Hungler in the year (2001) stated that the term “Literature Review” is often used to cover both the process of searching for relevant literature and the critical reporting of the literature.
