This is to inform our esteemed authors that the Editorial Team of IJSSAR has approved a slight revision of our Article Processing Charge (APC) from Thirty Five Thousand Naira (N35,000), to Fifty Thousand Naira (N50,000) only, for local authors; while the current APC for international authors is 100 USD. This arrangement takes effect from January 1, 2026. This adjustment is due to the dwindling exchange rate of the Nigerian local currency, the Naira at the international market. The APC serves the sole purpose of smooth and consistent running of the journal; it is also the only source of revenue for the Journal. IJSSAR is not subscription-based due to its open access policy, and does not accept paid advertisements on its website. Thank you for choosing our outlet to publish your creative works.
