We are happy to announce the release of issue eight of the AJFAND.

Once again we thank all our authors for your contribution and patience. The delays in uploading are attributable to some authors’ laxity at finalizing their manuscripts. This is beyond our control as we have to attain a certain number of manuscripts in order to upload. We thus apologize to those authors who have worked hard and diligently to submit their manuscripts on time.

AJFAND continues to be on-line. This is now acceptable to a majority of scholars and also affiliates of AJFAND who are CABI Publishing and The Society of African Journal of Editors (SAJE), the later of whom subscribes to International Network for Availability of Scientific Publication (INASP). Our website is www.ajfand.net

To our authors whose manuscripts were not included in this issue, bear with us as we continue to work together to have them uploaded in the next issue. Otherwise, let us know once your manuscript is published elsewhere.

We truly value your support and invite you to stay with us. Send us your comments as well as your manuscripts. We are already working on the next issue.

Enjoy the reading.
