  • Report of the West African Hub Meeting
    REPORT OF THE WEST AFRICAN HUB MEETING HELD IN LAGOS, NIGERIA 2-7 OCTOBER 2017 HOSTED BY: Report Compiled by: Nigerian Slum/Informal Settlement Federation Background to the West African Hub Meeting The West Africa Hub meeting is the opportunity for all Federations in West Africa to come together in one city through exchange to learn from and challenge each other. Exchange is one of the key tools of the SDI network that is central to deepening our core rituals, stopping forced evictions, promoting participatory urban planning and development. Exactly 1 year ago in Accra, Ghana, the West African Federations of SDI converged to hold the preceding Hub Meeting from 2-7 October 2016. The theme was “Keeping Our Federations Through Savings Data.” The theme was no doubt apt as savings is the first core ritual of SDI; a tool for mobilization of every federation of the urban poor for their dignity, development, and to resist forced eviction through advocacy for inclusion. The theme of the follow-up 2017 Hub Meeting hosted by the Nigerian Federation is “Building Inclusive Cities.” This is a response to the rhythm of pains, sufferings and negative experiences of the Nigerian Federation members, in the spate of violent-mass evictions. Over 300,000 waterfront residents threatened with forced eviction by the Governor of Lagos State Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode in October of 2016, and then in November 2016, 30,000 people were forcefully evicted from Otodo Gbame waterfront community. All 33 threatened waterfront communities profiled by the Nigerian Federation enjoyed the respite of court order that condemned the Lagos Government’s actions as illegal, cruel, inhuman and degrading – but so much more needs to be done.

(Guid. & Counsel.), M.P.H. (Ibadan) MATRIC №: 69372 A THESIS IN THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH PROMOTION AND EDUCATION, SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF PUBLIC HEALTH IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF IBADAN UNIVERSITY OF IBADAN LIBRARY February 2017 AFRICAN DIGITAL HEALTH REPOSITORYi PROJECT DEDICATION To all the victims of vaccine-preventable diseases and their caregivers UNIVERSITY OF IBADAN LIBRARY AFRICAN DIGITAL HEALTH REPOSITORYii PROJECT ABSTRACT Interventions aimed at promoting completion of Routine Immunisation (RI) in Nigeria have not yielded satisfactory results. Text Message Reminders (TMRs) through mobile phones have been used to promote adoption of innovations; however, its effectiveness in enhancing the completion of RI in rural areas has not been adequately investigated. This study was designed to evaluate the effects of TMRs on knowledge and completion of RI by Mothers of Infants (MI) in rural Local Government Areas (LGAs) in Oyo State, Nigeria. The adopted quasi-experimental design involved random selection of Ibarapa North (IN) and Kajola from the list of 12 rural LGAs with highest immunisation dropout rates. Ibarapa North and Kajola were randomly allocated to Intervention Group (IG) and Control Group (CG), respectively by balloting. Five Primary Health Care facilities in each LGA with RI services were randomly selected out of 10 facilities in each LGA. All consenting 179 MI in IG and 187 MI in CG who registered their children at the health facilities for RI in June 2014 were enrolled.

A. 2 *1Department of Economics, Nile University of Nigeria, FCT Abuja, Nigeria 2Department of Agricultural Economics, University of Ibadan, Ibadan Nigeria 3Forestry Research Institute of Nigeria, Jericho Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria *Corresponding Author Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT The study determined the saving culture of rural households in Ibarapa East Local Government of Oyo State. A multi-stage sampling technique was used to select 200 respondents for the study and questionnaire was used to elicit information from the respondents. Descriptive statistics and Probit regression were used to analyse the data. The result shows that the mean household size was 7, an indication of a relatively large average household size. The result of Probit regression shows a positive relationship between the income of respondents and their participation in commercial banks. However, participation of the respondents in Bank of Agriculture (BOA) is very low due to their poor awareness of the program. The result also reveals that distant to commercial banks, collateral and high interest rate hampered the respondents’ access to loan. The study recommends that activities of unorganized rural bank should be strengthened by the Government.

Forest Economics & Extension Department, Forestry Research Institute of Nigeria, P.M.B. 5054, Jericho Hills, Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria *Corresponding author’s email: [email protected] ABSTRACT This study was carried out to assess effects of wood harvesting on the livelihood of forest communities in Ibarapa region, southwest, Nigeria. The study was conducted to identify the various livelihood activities engaged in by forest communities in the region; to assess how wood harvesting in the forests has affected the livelihood of the people in the region as well as to determine the factors influencing wood harvesting in the region. Three hundred copies of structured questionnaire were used to elicit information from the respondents. Focused Group Discussion and Key Informant Interview were also used. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and logistic regression. Results show that various livelihood activities were engaged in by the respondents, prominent among which were food crop production, cash crop production, charcoal production, among others. Among the factors that were responsible for wood harvesting in the region, only age, occupation, household size and the distance of respondent’s house to the forest were significant at 5%. It was observed that excessive wood harvesting has negatively affected the forests in the study area as most of the forests have been greatly degraded.
