      DEFINING THE TERMINOLOGIES:(SCIENCE &CULTURE)

√ SCIENCE: From the advanced dictionary, it is defined as knowledge about the structure and behavior of the natural and physical world, based on facts that you can prove, e.g experiment.
     But I laterally defined it as knowledge obtained by close relationship of man with his environment.

√ CULTURE: Is defined as the peoples way of life.
The lifestyle people live affects what they will become/how successful they outscores.

    WHAT IS SCIENCE CULTURE
     This is a new phenomenon.  I literally coiled it myself.
    I define Science culture as the act of living a scientific lifestyle. I.e Living and knowing the benefits of science to mankind.

   Nigeria is a blessed country, although it's' civilization in science development is not vast.
   Every citizen of Nigeria poses this question in their mind.
