The Tables should be in single line paragraphing and '0' spacing. An example is shown in Table 1: Table 1:Distribution of educational status of clients Educational level Number (%) Non-literate 3,043 (61.5) Completed primary 986 (19.9) Completed secondary 585 (11.8) The use of TABS and Spacing between lines using line should be avoided.

Any Table that can fit into half column of a page must not be stretched into entire width of page. Table must be in usual grid in Table format. You must not use spaces to create demarcation between lines inside table. Coloured tables and figures may be reprinted in black and white unless the author wants them in coloured print, in which case the cost of the coloured print will be borne by the author. Images should preferably be reduced to a width of about half of A4 size paper (with 1.25 inches margins) with very clear text (if any) of about 9-12 points. Larger images are acceptable provided that the sizes are justifiable and if there is need to reduce the sizes, any text will not be less than 9 points in size when reduced. As much as possible, figures labels should be such that they should not be less than 9 points in size when reduced to a width of about 2.5 inches. All images (picture) must be of high-resolution and of sufficient quality for both archival and print purposes. Images in which colors are not realistic, text is illegible, or images are pixilated will be rejected. Unless the authors are prepared to pay for the printing of the pages of the journal with colored images in their articles in colors, all images should be presented in black and white or gray format.
