SOJOBI Abstract - The perennial annual flooding problems occurring in Lagos and Ogun States during the rainy season due largely to release of excess water from the multi-purpose Oyan Dam reservoir built across Oyan River, a tributary of Ogun River, located in Abeokuta North Local Government of Ogun State, has reached unacceptable level. Annually, the flooding hazard causes severe economic, social, ecological and environmental impacts such as displacement of no less than 1,280 residents, interruption of major roads which inevitably leads to loss of valuable man-hours, infection of surface and ground water leading to increased incidences of water-borne diseases, disruption of commercial and educational activities and recession of shoreline. This paper reviews the genesis and root causes of the flooding problems with a view to proffer the best approach to alleviate and solve this problem on a permanent basis combining hydraulic and hydrological best practices.

  • Application of Geographic Information System (GIS) in the Assessment of Human Water Contact Patterns in Relation to Schistosomia

Salami 3 1Osun State College of Education, Ila-Orangun, Osun State, Nigeria 2Department of Zoology, University of Ibadan,Oyo State, Nigeria. 3Institute of Ecology and Environmental Studies, Obafemi Awolowo University,Ile-Ife,Nigeria. (Received August 1, 2010; Accepted October 10, 2010) ABSTRACT: A survey of human water contact patterns in relation to schistosomiasis infection was carried out in five rural communities around Erinle/ Owalla Reservior,Osun State in South West Nigeria. Six sites were surveyed for two sessions between May 2008 – June 2010. Coordinates of relevant sampling points were located and plotted in a Geographic Information System (using Archview 3.20 GIS software). A base map of the study area was generated using Landsat ETM+ and LandsatTM (1986) imagery. Human water contact points were overlaid on the base map produced from the generated map. The highest water contact was recorded among 12 – 13 age bracket, which was also the age group that had the highest intensity of infection, before decreasing to lower stables. The intensity was higher among children involved in bathing and washing clothes than those carrying out other activities. This age and activity- related exposure in Oba- Ile, Oba- Oke, Ilie, Ore and Eko- Ende communities suggest that both age and exposures play important roles in the local transmission of the disease.

    International OPEN ACCESS Journal Of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) Hydropower Potential of Nigeria Abaka J. U*1,Ibraheem T. B2, Salmanu H3, Olokede O.4 Energy Commission Of Nigeria ABSTRACT: The quest for economical growth and development coupled with the need to have a secured environment necessitated the adoption of alternative energy technologies, one of which is hydropower technology. This paper brings to fore the hydropower resources, dams and river basins of Nigeria. It touches on the hydropower challenges and possible ways out of the problems associated with our hydropower dams. Corporate analysis of per capital electricity consumption worldwide is discussed as it concerns the subject matter. Basic design considerations of hydro dams are also highlighted. Keywords: Hydropower, electricity, resources, environment, Station. I. INTRODUCTION The earth as a planet is majorly covered with water. Two-third of it according to the geographers is water filled. Nigeria as a country is not exempted in this opportunistic discovery, the water resources sector in Nigeria holds enormous potentials which can be harnessed for rapid socio-economic development of the country. The Nigeria land is well drained by perennial rivers, streams and springs. Water power from flowing rivers and streams can be harnessed by building dams to hold the water which can be used to generate electricity through the use of turbines. In the mid 19th century the first effective water turbine was discovered, however, today the modern turbines are compact, highly efficient and are capable of turning at a very high speed to deliver the expected output. Hydropower is a proven technology, renewable, eco-friendly and can integrate easily with irrigation and township water supply project (Sule B.F 2010).

To address this, we conducted a pilot investigation for FGS in girls (>5 and ≤15 years) and adult women (≥16 years) in four rural communities near Abeokuta, Ogun State. Urine samples were collected from 317 participants [children (n = 187), adults (n = 130)] and exam- ined for ova of Schistosoma haematobium by microscopy. A total of 149 participants (47·0%) had egg-patent urogenital schistosomiasis [children (64·7%), adults (21·6%)], reported blood in urine was common (44·5%) as well as sign-post symp- toms of FGS. To verify FGS directly, 20 adult women each underwent a gynaecological investigation by colposcopy with observed lesions classified according to the WHO FGS pocket atlas. Fourteen (70·0%) women presented with FGS as grainy-sandy patches (n = 10), homogenous yellow sandy patches (n = 6), nabothian cysts and rubbery papules (n = 1).

The study observed the causes of dam failures and also compared their lifespans Received January 2019 to their configuration, location and objectives. The results obtained from this study shows that Nigeria has large, Accepted 2 February 2019 medium and small dams which are also single and multipurpose. The dam structures will live out their lifespan as Available 04 2019 estimated from the designs, work effectively and sustainably except for action of some factors such as change in the 1 hydrology of the dam location, changes in the design criteria and natural disasters. The need to know the degree to Online 27 February which dam structures achieve its expected result or purpose, the lifespan of each dam before rehabilitation and the sustainability of the dams in Nigeria, bringing the attention of the government and private owners to the need of dam construction and maintenance is the basis of this paper.

    OCHENI CHUBIYOJO GRACE 15/ENG07/031 PETROLEUM ENGINEERING CHE574 ASSIGNMENT 1a. With adequate mathematical relations, explain the various forms of energy b. Distinguish between the sustainable energy and resources and non-sustainable energy and resources c. With the aid of appropriate pie chart or bar chart briefly discuss the typical energy resource mix for sustainable energy development and provide your own view on the case for the Nigerian environment. 1 QUESTION 1 A. The Various Forms Of Energy Although there are several types of energy, scientists can group them into two main categories: kinetic energy and potential energy. i. Kinetic Energy Kinetic energy is energy of motion. Atoms and their components are in motion, so all matter possesses kinetic energy. On a larger scale, any object in motion has kinetic energy. A common formula for kinetic energy is for a moving mass: KE = 1/2 mv2……. (1) KE is kinetic energy, m is mass, and v is velocity. A typical unit for kinetic energy is the joule. ii. Potential Energy Potential energy is energy that matter gains from its arrangement or position. The object has the ‘potential’ to do work. Examples of potential energy include a sled at the top of a hill or a pendulum at the top of its swing. One of the most common equations for potential energy that can be used to determine the energy of an object with respect to its height above a base: E = mgh…… (2) PE is potential energy, m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity, and h is height.
