This paper seeks to advance the competitiveness of rail transport as a mode of commuting and an alternative model of commuter/freight transportation in Nigeria.The Port Harcourt-Aba City rail corridor through this study offers the opportunity to remodel the existing railways network,driven by private investment based on the "Design,Build and Operate" model of concession.

Ethics are expressed in actions in the organization based on set principles.More often than not, ... more Ethics are expressed in actions in the organization based on set principles.More often than not, managers espouse one set of principles, but their actions speak the opposite. It is in the place of ethics in leadership to achieve a match between principles so espoused and decisions or judgements made. This monogram argues that ethical leadership in action is one that works positively to change the attitudes and behaviours of employees in the organization, engaging the work force in socially constructive behaviour that says, " we are in it together " ,not the dichotomous type that pulls employees in opposite directions of management and performance. It summarizes that power and its expression should be used to further organizational goals not abuse or misuse it for personal aggrandisement.

Key Words: Small and Medium Scale Businesses,Financial Institutions,Polytechnic Education,Economic Growth,Industrialization.
