Dairy cooperatives play a critical role in integrating smallholder farmers into milk markets by aggregating production, reducing transaction costs, strengthening collective bargaining power, and facilitating access to markets and services. However, their operational performance may be constrained by dispersed milk production, inefficient collection and transportation systems, inadequate infrastructure, and weak market coordination. This study examined the association between aggregation strategies and the operational performance of dairy cooperative societies in Kiambu County, Kenya. A descriptive cross-sectional research design was employed, covering 19 dairy cooperative societies. Managers, board members, and cooperative-member employees served as key informants. A stratified purposive sampling procedure targeted 78 respondents, of whom 69 completed the questionnaire, yielding an 88.46% response rate. Primary data were collected using structured questionnaires, while secondary data on 2024 milk production volumes and milk payment rates were obtained from the Kenya Dairy Board. Operational performance was measured using a composite Operational Performance Index (OPI), calculated as annual milk volume multiplied by the average annual milk payment per litre and subsequently natural-log transformed. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, diagnostic tests, and multiple linear regression. The findings revealed a strong positive correlation between aggregation strategies and operational performance (r = 0.852, p < 0.01). After controlling for technology adoption and governance practices, aggregation strategies remained a positive and statistically significant predictor of operational performance (β = 0.988, SE = 0.346, t = 2.86, p = 0.012). The overall regression model was statistically significant and explained 85.7% of the variation in log operational performance (R² = 0.857; F(3,15) = 29.874, p < 0.001). Qualitative findings identified decentralized milk collection, investment in collection and cooling infrastructure, collective marketing, coordinated transportation, and cost-efficient aggregation as key mechanisms through which cooperatives could improve operational efficiency and market coordination. The study concludes that well-organized aggregation strategies are an important organizational capability associated with stronger operational performance among dairy cooperatives. It recommends strategic investment in decentralized collection systems, cold-chain infrastructure, coordinated transportation, collective marketing, and cost-management practices, complemented by effective technology adoption and governance. Given the cross-sectional design and small number of cooperatives, the findings should be interpreted as evidence of association rather than definitive causality.

The study examines Githa Hariharan's debut novel, The Thousand Faces of Night (1992) which explores the intertextual correlation between classical Indian epics and the framework of contemporary female self - discovery. Hariharan employs the epic elements of The Mahabharata and The Ramayana, they traditionally provide moral structure for “Ideal” womanhood — which is symbolized by figures like Sita, Gandhari, and Amba. She linked here mythic archetypes to emphasize the psychological and social entanglement of the modern Indian woman. In this paper, it has been explored how the novel reclaims ancient myths to destabilize the patriarchal assumptions. The study further indicates that Hariharan does not simply reproduce these legends but also utilize them as a counter-narrative. The work highlights the discrepancy between the idealized domestic sphere and the systematic oppression experienced within it. Instead of following the old script of ‘suffering in silence’, the protagonist Devi finds her power by choosing her own path over societal expectations of sacrifice. Ultimately, Hariharan uses her literary references as a feminist weapon, turning old myths once used to keep women in their place - into a blueprint for defiance.

The growing emphasis on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices has made sustainability reporting an important mechanism for enhancing corporate transparency, accountability, and long-term value creation. This study examined the effect of sustainability reporting on firm value of quoted consumer goods firms in Nigeria. The population comprised of all the twenty-one (21) consumer goods firms quoted on Nigeria Exchange Group while purposive sampling technique was used to arrive at sixteen (16) sampled consumer goods firms covering the periods of eleven (11) years ranging from 2015 to 2025. The hypotheses were tested using the robust effect regression model after conducting some diagnostics tests. The findings revealed that both environmental reporting and social reporting has a significant negative effect on market share price of quoted consumer goods firms in Nigeria. The findings also indicated that governance reporting has an insignificant positive effect on market share price of quoted consumer goods firms in Nigeria. The study recommended among others that consumer goods firms in Nigeria should strengthen environmental reporting by providing detailed, accurate and measurable information on waste management, energy consumption, pollution control, emissions reduction, recycling, environmental protection and the efficient use of natural resources. The study further recommended that Firms should demonstrate how effective governance mechanisms contribute to accountability, transparency and long-term value creation. Strong governance reporting can reduce information asymmetry and increase investors' confidence in the reliability of corporate decisions.

The study investigated communication as predictors of marital harmony among teachers in public senior secondary schools in Rivers State, Nigeria. Correlational research design was adopted for the study. Two research questions and two hypotheses guided the study. The population of the study comprised all the married public senior secondary school teachers in Rivers State, totaling 6,174 with a sample size of 366 secondary school teachers drawn using Fluid survey online calculator. Multi-stage procedure was used for the study. two self-constructed instruments titled: “Communication Scale (CS) and Marital Harmony Scale (MHS) were used to collect data. The instruments CS and MHS were validated by the two experts in Guidance and Counselling, in the Department of Educational Psychology, Guidance and Counselling. The reliability of the instruments was determined using Cronbach alpha reliability method that yielded the following reliability indices: CS = .85 and MHS = .87 respectively. However, the reliability coefficients of the subscales were also obtained. Simple regression analysis was used to answer the research questions and test the null hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance using SPSS version 25. The result of the study showed that: couples spending quality time together and verbal communication positively and significantly predicted the marital harmony of teachers in public senior secondary schools in Rivers State. Based on the findings of the study, it was recommended that poor communication skills and who does not spend quality time together should be encouraged to go for marriage counselling amongst others.
