Living Through Nigeria's Six-Year
“When We Can’t See the Enemy, Civilians Become the Enemy” Living Through Nigeria’s Six-Year Insurgency About the Report This report explores the experiences of civilians and armed actors living through the conflict in northeastern Nigeria. The ultimate goal is to better understand the gaps in protection from all sides, how civilians perceive security actors, and what communities expect from those who are supposed to protect them from harm. With this understanding, we analyze the structural impediments to protecting civilians, and propose practical—and locally informed—solutions to improve civilian protection and response to the harm caused by all armed actors in this conflict. About Center for Civilians in Conflict Center for Civilians in Conflict (CIVIC) works to improve protection for civil- ians caught in conflicts around the world. We call on and advise international organizations, governments, militaries, and armed non-state actors to adopt and implement policies to prevent civilian harm. When civilians are harmed we advocate the provision of amends and post-harm assistance. We bring the voices of civilians themselves to those making decisions affecting their lives. The organization was founded as Campaign for Innocent Victims in Conflict in 2003 by Marla Ruzicka, a courageous humanitarian killed by a suicide bomber in 2005 while advocating for Iraqi families.

Concentration in the North Eastern Nigeria's Yam Market: a Gini
49 Agro-Science Journal of Tropical Agriculture, Food, Environment and Extension Volume 10 Number 2 May 2011 pp. 49 - 57 ISSN 1119-7455 CONCENTRATION IN THE NORTH EASTERN NIGERIA’S YAM MARKET: A GINI COEFFICIENT ANALYSIS Taru1, V.B., and Lawal2 H. 1Department of Agricultural Technology Federal Polytechnic P.M.B. 35 Mubi Adamawa State Nigeria 2Department of Agricultural Economics and Extension Moddibo Adama University of Technology P. M. B. 2076 Yola, Adamawa State Nigeria ABSTRACT Policy formulation has failed to take cognizance of the fact that production and marketing constitute a continuum and that the absence of development in one retards progress in the other. The study analysed the concentration of yam markets in southern part of Adamawa and Taraba states. It specifically identified the degree of product differentiation, market information dissemination and determined the concentration of yam sellers in the markets. A total of 410 respondents comprising 210 retailers and 200 wholesalers were randomly sampled using simple random sampling techniques from six purposively selected yam markets namely, Ganye, Nadu and Tola markets in Adamawa State and Wukari, Sarkin-Kudu, and Chanchanjim markets, Taraba State. Descriptive statistics, Gini coefficient and Lorenz Curve were the analytical tools used. The common features used in yam differentiation were yam varieties and size or length and market information were majorly disseminated by means of personal contact (verbal message) and telephone (GSM). The Gini coefficient of 0.56 and 0.52 were obtained for wholesaling and retailing, respectively. The concentration of sales was high with high income inequality in yam wholesaling than retailing in the area. -
Ground Water and River Quality Assessment for Some Heavy Metals and Physicochemical Parameters in Wukari Town, Taraba State, Nigeria M
Ground Water and River Quality Assessment for Some Heavy Metals and Physicochemical Parameters in Wukari Town, Taraba State, Nigeria M. O. Aremu1, O. J. Oko1, C. Andrew1 1Department of Chemical Sciences, Federal University Wukari, PMB 1020, Wukari, Taraba State, Nigeria Abstract: With a few to assessing the qualities of water sources in Wukari local government area (LGA), a study was conducted on ground water and rivers in two settlements at Wukari LGA. For this purpose, some heavy metals (cadmium, lead, arsenic, iron, copper, mercury and manganese) and physicochemical parameters (temperature, turbidity, suspended solids, total dissolved solids, conductivity, pH, nitrate, phosphate, chloride, alkalinity, hardness and chemical/biochemical oxygen demand) were determined in water samples collected from hand–dug wells, boreholes and rivers in Puje and Avyi during wet and dry seasons using standard analytical techniques. The results showed that all the seven metals determined were detected and present at trace levels in all the water samples ranging from 0.001 ppm (Hg) in well and borehole to 0.0768 ppm (Fe) in river, and 0.001 ppm (Hg) in borehole to 0.0763 ppm (Fe) in river for Puje and Avyi, respectively. However, all the metals were found to have contained concentrations below the permissible safe level. The results further revealed that the levels of physicochemical parameters in the water samples for both wet and dry seasons are within the required standard limits set by World Health Organization (WHO) for drinking water. Nevertheless, source protection is recommended for the bodies of water for the benefit of Wukari people. Keywords: Hand–dug Well, Borehole, River, Physicochemical Parameter, Wukari Introduction applications, urban runoff, debris from erosion and Water covers more than 70% of the earth though only polluted surface water [4]. -

International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Research International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Research ISSN: 2455-2070; Impact Factor: RJIF 5.22 www.socialresearchjournals.com Volume 3; Issue 1; January 2017; Page No. 18-21 Socio-economic characteristics of fuelwood cutters in gadam, kwami LGA Gombe State, Nigeria * Muhammed Bello Bashir, Yahaya Ibrahim, Adamu Sani Jauro Department of Geography Faculty of Science, Gombe State University, Gombe, Gombe State, Nigeria Abstract The paper tries to explore the Socio-economic Characteristics of Fuelwood Cutters in Gadam. The socio- economic status of fuelwood cutters were studied, the nature of fuelwood cutting as well as the possible measures that are put in place to halt the reckless felling down of tress in the name of fuelwood. Both qualitative and quantitative data were used in the study. Questionnaire and interview schedule methods are the tools used in data collection. The data were analysed using simple statistical techniques, percentage tables. The result revealed that majority of the fuelwood cutters are men within the age bracket 25-35 mostly married with Qur, anic and primary level of education. The study further discovered that trees are cut indiscriminately. Mostly fresh ones are been cut and allow to dry before taken to nearby town for sale. Finally the study suggested that such measures should be put in place to halt the indiscriminate cutting down of tress, government to provide alternative sources of energy such as affordable and reliable electric, solar and kerosene stoves, Public enlightenment campaign should be intensified among others.

Dam, [email protected] ABSTRACT: The structure of road network connectivity in any region can either promote or reduce agricultural production, market opportunities, cultural and social interactions as well as businesses and employment opportunities. This study evaluates road network connectivity in the Benue Basin of Nigeria. Data on the existing road network including type and conditions, density and length of the roads in the study area were extracted from existing road map of Nigeria, and satellite imagery of the Benue basin. The data was analysed using different methods of network connectivity analysis including beta index, alpha and gamma indices. The findings reveal four types of roads network in the basin which are grouped into three categories namely: federal highways (trunk A), state government roads (trunk B) and local government and community roads (trunk C) which are in various state of deplorable conditions. -

A Study of Violence-Related Deaths in Nafada Local Government Area Of
# Makai DANIEL http://www.ifra-nigeria.org/IMG/pdf/violence-related-deaths-gombe-jigawa-state-nigeria.pdf A Study of Violence-Related Deaths in Nafada Local Government Area of Gombe State and Auyo, Gagarawa, Gumel, Gwiwa, Kaugama and Yankwasi Local Government Areas of Jigawa State (2006-2014) IFRA-Nigeria working papers series, n°46 20/01/2015 The ‘Invisible Violence’ Project Based in the premises of the French Institute for Research in Africa on the campus of the University of Ibadan, Nigeria Watch is a database project that has monitored fatal incidents and human security in Nigeria since 1 June 2006. The database compiles violent deaths on a daily basis, including fatalities resulting from accidents. It relies on a thorough reading of the Nigerian press (15 dailies & weeklies) and reports from human rights organisations. The two main objectives are to identify dangerous areas and assess the evolution of violence in the country. However, violence is not always reported by the media, especially in remote rural areas that are difficult to access. Hence, in the last 8 years, Nigeria Watch has not recorded any report of fatal incidents in some of the 774 Local Government Areas (LGAs) of the Nigerian Federation. There are two possibilities: either these places were very peaceful, or they were not covered by the media. This series of surveys thus investigates ‘invisible’ violence. By 1 November 2014, there were still 23 LGAs with no report of fatal incidents in the Nigeria Watch database: Udung Uko and Urue-Offong/Oruko (Akwa Ibom), Kwaya Kusar (Borno), Nafada (Gombe), Auyo, Gagarawa, Kaugama and Yankwashi (Jigawa), Ingawa and Matazu (Katsina), Sakaba (Kebbi), Bassa, Igalamela- Odolu and Mopa-Muro (Kogi), Toto (Nassarawa), Ifedayo (Osun), Gudu and Gwadabaw (Sokoto), Ussa (Taraba), and Karasuwa, Machina, Nguru and Yunusari (Yobe).
