The objective of this paper is to explain the influence of Murabahah finance on the relationship between farm credit and agricultural output. This is because, in most of the advanced countries, agricultural output is a backbone of their economy in terms of food supply, industrial, provision of income, employment opportunities. The importance of agricultural output to the socioeconomic well being, specifically the third world countries are paramount. However, it has been shown that there is a decrease in agricultural output in African economies and Nigeria is inclusive. The decrease of agricultural output in Nigeria is resulted to increase in poverty rate, unemployment, fall in individual and government income, collapsed of the industries etc. Some researchers are of the view that poor credit facilities are part of the main problem hindering the growth of the Nigerian agricultural sector. The current paper proposed a research model which, if validated in an empirical source will assist the advancement of agriculture in Nigeria. Hence, the study seeks to propose the use of Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modelling PLS in relation to analysis of the data. This paper may directly or indirectly contribute to the policy makers of Nigerian agricultural cooperative and rural development banks and agricultural environment. It provides a sufficient approach for Murabahah finance as a potential moderator of the Model.

Agriculture is science of soil utilization for plant grow and anima management for food supply and raw materials for industries production, distribution, consumption and for sustainable living and economic growth. However, the farm output in Kano state is drastically declining. Despite the higher demand for the output and effort of both government and nongovernmental organizations to grow the output and yet the issue is increasing. The objective of this paper is to propose a model for examining the mediating influence of Murabahah finance on the relationship between farm land, farm infrastructure and agricultural output in Kano State of Nigeria. This study proposes a new model that hopes to be considered and utilize by the Kano state government through the state ministry of agriculture, commerce as well as farmer's cooperatives association and financial institutions. In addition, the current paper introduces Murabahah finance as a potential mediating variable as well as new variable in the study model.The Mediating Influence Of Murabahah Finance On The Relationship Between Farm Land, Farm Infrastructure And Agricultural Output In Kano State, Nigeria

Objective – Objective of this study is to analyze the lockdown effect on economic activities in Nigeria as the lockdown response measure to COVID-19 pandemic claim to pose a serious and potentially long term socio-economic threat to individuals, households, businesses as well as public sectors in Nigeria. Design/methodology – This study considered four regions in Nigeria (Northwest, North-Central, South-South and Southeast) and adopted a quantitative research approach which entails systematic evaluation of individuals' behavior towards an unprecedented economic shock and their response to the manner in which the situation might unfolds by lifting the lockdown measure in Nigeria. This is achievable with a systematic random sample and a well-structured survey questionnaire. All these regions experienced the imposition of lockdown measure by their respective state authorities. Results – The results indicated that most socio-economic challenges including job loss, increase social vices, rise in poverty level, fall in economic activities, as well as fall in the level of GDP faced by individuals was not a resultant of the lockdown. Consequently, authority's inefficiency was also challenged in spite of their efforts to mitigate and control the emerging economic consequences faced by households during the lockdown periods.Recommendation - The study recommends that lifting of lockdown would be the best action for the government to take for socio-economic resilience. The study also revealed that both public and individuals need to establish democratic preferences, and trust on health professionals or experts. Further to this, government should decide on effective measures needed to contain the continuous spread of the virus especially through development of research based and healthcare institutions.
