It plays an intrinsic role in almost all segments of the people‟s cultural life. In the Ọjị Ezinihitte festivity the „kola tradition‟ is meaningfully and elaborately celebrated. This article examines the importance of Ọjị within the context of Ezinihitte socio-cultural heritage, and equally accounts for continuity and change within it. An eclectic framework in data collection was utilized for this research. This involved the use of key-informant interviews, direct observation as well as extant textual sources (both published and un-published), including archival documents, for the purposes of the study. In terms of analysis, the study utilized the qualitative analytical approach. This was employed towards ensuring that the three basic purposes of this study – exploration, description and explanation – are well articulated and attained. The paper provided background for a proper understanding of the „sacred origin‟ of the Ọjị festive celebration. Through a vivid account of the festival‟s processes and rituals, it achieved a reconstruction of the festivity‟s origins and evolutionary trajectories and argues the festival as reflecting the people‟s spirit of fraternity and conviviality. -

Ibeje There are many land uses applied at Ikeduru L.G.A. in Imo State, Department of Civil Nigeria, thus, the area is selected as a case study. The objective of Engineering, Imo State University, P.M.B. 2000, study is to determine the effects of land use on infiltration by three Owerri, Nigeria. different land use types; 34 of them are in farmlands, 34 in Bamboo field and 32 in forestlands. Within each land use type, multiple regression are used to determine degree of association between the rates of infiltration, moisture content, porosity, bulk density and particle sizes. Non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis analysis of variance is used to determine whether significant differences in infiltration rates existed between different land uses. The mean steady state infiltration rate of farmlands, bamboo fields and forestland are 1.98 cm/h, 2.44cm/h and 2.43cm/h respectively. The regression model shows that infiltration rate decreases with increase in moisture content and bulk density but increases with the increase of soil particle sizes and porosity. -

Corresponding author: Njoku-Tony, R.F, Email- [email protected] Abstract: A 12 months study on fascioliasis in sokoto gudali sheep of Hausa origin (northern part of Nigeria) was carried out in five different abattoirs in Imo State, Nigeria between 2004 and 2005.The abattoirs were Obinze, Okigwe, Afor-Enyiogugu, Afor-Ogbe, and Orlu .The objective of the study was to determine the prevalence of fascioliasis among slaughter sheep in selected abattoirs in Imo state. Five grams of feces and liver from freshly slaughtered sheep of both sexes, and from different locations and ages were collected, taken to the laboratory and analyzed for fasciola eggs and adult flukes. Direct smear, formol ether concentration and sodium chloride floatation methods were used to harvest the eggs and adult parasites. Out of 367 sheep examined, 64 (17.2%0) were infected. Infection was highest in Obinze abattoir (29.6%) followed by Afor Enyiogugu abattoir with (29.0%) Okigwe (15.6%), Orlu (12.5%) and Afor Ogbe (12.4%). Infection was highest in females than in males and was also sex dependent. Among adult sheep (>2yrs) examined , 59 (14.9%) were infected while out of 38 young goats (<2yrs), 5 (13.2%) were infected. Infection level rose with increased rainfall with the highest level observed at the peak of the rainy season and dropping during the dry season months. -

Nigeria Abstract: Investigations on the physicochemical properties and microbial load of Nworie River in Owerri Imo state, Nigeria was carried out between January and July, 2014. Water samples from 3 locations namely (Upstream Akwakuma), (Discharge pointFederal Medical Center) and (Downstream Holy Ghost College) were collected and taken to the laboratory for analysis. Temperature, Conductivity, pH, TDS, and DO were determined in-situ using Jenway (Model type HANNA 1910) Multipurpose tester. Microbial quality was determined using standard methods. Results showed that temperature, pH, dissolved solids, DO, BOD were all within the WHO standard. Analysis on microbial quality however revealed heavy presence of microbial contamination in the midstream (Discharge point). The total coliform count was highest at the midstream (FMC) and ranged from 80x105cfu/cm3 to 172x105cfu/cm3, and total faecal coliform count ranged from 8x105cfu/cm3 to 31x105cfu/cm3 while the least was recorded at the upstream (Akwakuma) with a total coliform range of 12x105 to 80x 105cfu/cm3 and total faecal coliform count that ranged from 4x105 to 22x105cfu/cm3. The results obtained showed the presence of Escherichia coli (8.18%), Staphylococcus spp(18.18%), Bacillus spp (21.09%), Klebsiellaspp (10.91%), Salmonella spp (1.82%), Proteus spp (8.18%), Pseudomonas spp (2.72%), Mucorspp(4.54%),Tricophytonspp (3.63%), Aspergillus fumigates (4.54%), Candida spp (2.72%), and Rhizopusspp (5.45%). -

The study identified most of all the known rivers in Imo State and provided information like relief, topography and other geographical features of the major rivers which are crucial to aid water management for a sustainable water infrastructure in the communities of the watershed. The rivers and lakes are classified into five watersheds (river basins) such as Okigwe watershed, Mbaise / Mbano watershed, Orlu watershed, Oguta watershed and finally, Owerri watershed. The knowledge of the river basins in Imo State will help analyze the problems involved in water resources allocation and to provide guidance for the planning and management of water resources in the state for sustainable development. Keywords: Rivers; Basins/Watersheds; Water allocation; • What minimum reservoir capacity will be sufficient to assure Sustainability adequate water for irrigation or municipal water supply, during droughts? Introduction • How much quantity of water will become available at a reservoir An understanding of the hydrology of a region or state is paramount site, and when will it become available?

W. Adejumo 1,*, I. F. Esau 2 1 - Department of Civil Engineering, School of Engineering and Engineering Technology, Federal University of Technology, Minna, P.M.B. 65, Minna, Nigeria. 2 - Consultancy Office, Flab Engineering Services, Wuse II, Abuja, Nigeria. * - Corresponding Author’s Email: [email protected], [email protected] +2349033795541 ABSTRACT This research presents assessment of quality of sand from Imo and Otamiri rivers, located in Imo State, south-east Nigeria for construction purposes. Tests carried out include sieve analysis, bulk density, specific gravity, organic content and California bearing test. The results classified the sand from both rivers as medium poorly graded, low compressibility, good drainage quality. The tests also revealed that the sand belong to Zone 2 of the grading curve of particle size distribution. The study further showed that sand from the two rivers have low California Bearing Ratio (CBR) values, which ranged between 0.15% and 0.22%. The pH value of sand from Otamiri river is 7 (Neutral), while sand from Imo River is slightly acidic with a pH value of 6.5. However the level of acidity does not pose a threat to any construction material. The Specific Gravity of Otamiri river sand averaged 2.57, which falls within the acceptable range of 2.50 and 3.00 for aggregates for construction purposes. The specific gravity of Imo river is 2.36, which is slightly below the given range. -

[email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT Open dumpsite is the most common way to eliminate solid urban wastes in this part of the world. An important problem associated to landfills and open dumpsite is the production of leachates. The leachates from these dumpsites have many toxic substances, which may adversely affect the environmental health. Thus in order to have a better management of characteristics of Ihiagwa-Nekede waste dump leachates, representative leachate samples were collected and analyzed for Physico-chemical properties and levels of heavy metals in them. Results indicate pH7.38, temperature 28.30 ℃ - 28.40℃, total dissolved solid 124.01mg/l-125.45mg/l, magnesium hardness 4.40mg/l-7.32mg/l, sulphate 3.60mg/l- 3.70mg/l, and nitrate 27.00mg/l-27.60mg/l.
