Abstract: In "The White Tiger', Aravind Adiga introduces an epistolary form to recount the oppressive situations of a lower caste servant, Balram, who tried to get rid of his physical and mental captivations that falsify his fortune all through his misdeeds. Balram Halwai inscribes a series of letters to the visiting Chinese Premier, Mr Wen Jiabao, to disclose a playfully expoundation and reinforce the points of Indian social circumstances that uphold the matter of servitudes and the consequences created from it. This study will simply try to demonstrate those points of extreme servitudes found in every social state of affairs and how the malcontent, Balram, has to accomplish his all immoral acts towards the way of successful entrepreneurship. But, all he wants to do up to the last time is to be free from servitudes, becoming a master from a servant.

Abstract: This paper tried to review substance abuse as it affects the educational prospects of secondary school students involved as well as the role of the family in aiding/controlling the scourge of substance abuse among youths in our society. The paper identified those substances students usually abused to include: Indian hemp (marijuana), tramadol, cocaine, morphine, heroin, tobacco, ephedrine, volume five, Chinese capsules, kola nuts, coffee, Viagra and alcohol. The review noted that substance abuse had been linked to the rising cases of promiscuity, rape, maladjustment, school dropout, examination misconducts and health hazards among students today. The educational implications of substance abuse by students were also examined. Finally, the review explores and appraises interventions aimed at using the family to control substance abuse among young people. These include direct prevention early identification and timely treatment which could be facilitated through developing positive family functioning, improved parent-child relationships and expanding/increasing family resilience to substance abuse.
Keywords: Family, substance abuse, aid and control, secondary school students, educational implications

Abstract: This paper examined the early Christian Church response to the plight of widows in Acts 6:1where the Grecian widows were neglected in the daily distribution of food in favour of the Hebrew widows.There is an apparent neglect and unjust treatment of widows in our Christian churches in Nigeria.
