Abstract: The study investigated the awareness and psycho-spiritual preparedness for the season of exile in search of greener pastures by SS-III science students in Owerri Zone (II) local government area of Owerri Imo-state Nigeria. To achieve a comprehensive study, descriptive survey research design was employed. The study population consisted of all three thousand, two hundred, and seven (3207) public senior secondary school three (SS-III) students in Owerri Zone (II) from which a sample of four hundred and two (402) science students was drawn using cluster random proportionate sampling technique. The instrument for data collection themed Awareness and Psycho-Spiritual Preparedness in Overcoming the Challenges Encountered during the Search for Greener Pastures (APSPOCESGP) was validated by experts from the Measurement and Evaluation Department, Guidance and Counselling Department, and Christian Religious Studies. The instrument had two clusters, A and B with Cronbach Alpha reliability coefficients 0.87 and 0.85. Simple percentages, mean and standard deviations were used to analyze the research questions while the Z-test statistical tool was used to test for significances at 0.05 conformity level. The findings revealed amongst others that in as much as the students were lowly aware (2.3) of the challenges encountered in exile as well as poorly prepared (2.4) to overcome them, a majority (72%) will migrate from home in search of greener pastures after graduation. Equipped with these discoveries, the researchers concluded that stakeholders in science secondary education; should put in more effort towards improving students’ awareness of the various life challenges associated with the season of exile in search of greener pastures and best practices for overcoming them.

Abstract: National food security is a critical issue worldwide, with significant implications for economic development, public health, and social stability. This article examines the challenges facing central African countries in achieving food security and explores potential solutions. Key factors contributing to food insecurity, such as population growth, climate change, natural disasters, and socioeconomic inequalities, are discussed. Strategies to enhance food security, including improving agricultural productivity, promoting sustainable farming practices, strengthening food distribution systems, enhancing nutrition education, and implementing social safety nets, are also examined. Drawing on empirical evidence and case studies from diverse regions, this article provides insights into effective policies and interventions for ensuring national food security. The study employed a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative analysis of policy documents and literature reviews with quantitative assessments of food production, consumption patterns, and socioeconomic indicators. Data was collected from various sources, including government reports, academic publications, and international organizations. Data was obtained from respondents by means of interviews, questionnaires and project observation schedules. The sample consisted of two hundred and fifty respondents. Frequency, percentages, tables, graphs and pie-charts were used to analyze the quantitative and qualitative data obtained. Data was then analyzed manually in some cases and also, a combination of software MS Access and MS Excel. The findings revealed that addressing national food security requires a multifaceted approach that addresses underlying structural issues while also implementing targeted interventions. By prioritizing investments in agriculture, strengthening social safety nets, and promoting inclusive policies, Southern African nations can move closer to achieving food security for all citizens. and the study by implementing the recommendations in a coordinated and context-specific manner, Southern African countries can make significant strides towards achieving sustainable food security and improving the livelihoods of their populations.

Keywords: Agriculture, Food Security, Nutrition, Sustainable Development, and Social Safety Nets.
