The population for the study consisted of all academic staff of Osun State College of Education, lla-Orangun out of which a total of 157 respondents were selected through purposive and maximum variation sampling technique from 5 schools that were randomly selected. Three hypotheses on the effect of participation in recreational sports on Health Status were tested, and all were found significant after subjecting them to chi-square analysis at 0.05 level of significance. Based on the findings of this study it was concluded that job demand, lack of motivation and erroneous belief are some of the inhibitors to recreational sport participation among academic staff in Osun State College of Education, Ua-Orangun.

Antimicrobial Resistance in Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolated from the Milk of Dairy Cows in Three Nigerian Cities
(Nigerian Veterinary Medical Association, 2012) Amosun, E. A.; Olatoye, O. I.; Adetosoye, A. I
Bovine mastitis is usually associated with bacterial pathogens isolated from the milk or mammary glands of dairy cows. A total of 205 isolates comprising of 110 (53.66%) Escherichia coli, 67 (32.68%) Klebsiella pneumoniae, and 28 (13.66%) Pseudomonas aeruginosa obtained from cases of bovine mastitis from southwest and Northern Nigeria during a period of one year were tested for susceptibility to ampicillin, tetracycline, neomycin, streptomycin, sulphadimidine and nalidixic acid using minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) method. The results demonstrated wide variation of in the susceptibility patterns for the various organisms from different regions of Nigeria. The three organisms displayed highest resistance to sulphadimidine 200 (97.5%) followed by ampicillin 153 (74.63%), tetracycline 103 (50.24%), neomycin 90 (43.90%), streptomycin 68 (33.17%) and nalidixic acid 29 (14.15%) respectively. The resistance patterns of the strains revealed 27 distinct resistance groups. In conclusion these data confirmed that majority of the Gram negative organisms that are causative agents of mastitis in Nigeria were resistant to several antibiotics. This could be a result of indiscriminate use of drugs by dairy farmers for treatment of mastitis in their herds.

Nine hundred and sixty (960) respondents were selected for this study through purposeful and convenient sampling techniques. The study tested three variables (private funding initiative, concessional management and foreig direct investment) and the data collected were coded and analyzed with both descriptive and inferential statistics. Descriptive statistics of frequency counts and percentages were used to analyse the demographic data of the respondents while inferential statistics f multiple regression was used to analyse the tested variables at 0.05 alpha level. The study reveal that all the three variables were significant, based on this, conclusions were drawn and recommendation made on how sport could contribute to coping with economic recession in Nigeria
