    Nigerian Journal of Rural Sociology Vol. 16, No. 3, 2016 RELEVANCE OF INDIGENOUS INSTITUTIONS IN CONFLICT RESOLUTION AND SUSTAINABLE LAND USE MANAGEMENT AMONG SETTLED FULANI AGRO-PASTORAL COMMUNITIES OF OGUN STATE, NIGERIA David, O. A. Department of General Studies, School of Communication & Information Technology, Moshood Abiola Polytechnic Ojeere, Abeokuta, Ogun state Correspondent contact details: [email protected] ABSTRACT There is a need to bring to fore the contribution of indigenous institutions in promoting peace building, fostering co-operation and collaboration among settled Fulani Agro-pastoralists in communities of Ogun State, Nigeria. The leadership institutions in pastoral communities were found to be involved in the process of investigating and resolving conflict as well as making authoritative decisions in respect of land access and sustainable use of natural resources management. Sustainable access to land resources and use for cattle and crop production in pastoral communities is dependent on the prevalence of strong local institutions for collective action (co- operation and collaboration). Purposive sampling technique was used to select 435 respondents. Data were collected using semi-structured Interview Guide. Fulani respondents maintained that some of the challenges facing them were loose collaboration/contradiction between statutory and indigenous institutions, intrusion of migratory pastoralists ( Bororo ), illegal entry of new herders, lack of policy support by government to settle conflict between Fulani

In Ogun State, the UBE Act was passed into law in 2005 after that of the Federal government in 2004, hence, the demonstration of the intention to make the UBE free, compulsory and universal. The aspects of the policy which is capital intensive require the government to provide adequately for basic education in the area of organization, funding, staff development, facilities, among others. With the commencement of the scheme in 1999/2000 until-date, Ogun State, especially in the area of facility provision, has joined in the collaborative effort with the Federal government through counter-part funding to provide some facilities to schools in the State, especially at the Primary level. These facilities include textbooks (in core subjects’ areas- Mathematics, English, Social Studies and Primary Science), blocks of classrooms, furniture, laboratories/library, teachers, etc. This study attempts to assess the level of articulation by the Ogun State Government of its UBE policy within the general framework of the scheme in providing facilities to schools at the primary level.

  • Analysis of Beef Consumption Pattern Among Rural Households in Yewa South Local Government Area of Ogun State, Nigeria
    Journal of Sustainable Development in Africa (Volume 17, No.8, 2015) ISSN: 1520-5509 Clarion University of Pennsylvania, Clarion, Pennsylvania ANALYSIS OF BEEF CONSUMPTION PATTERN AMONG RURAL HOUSEHOLDS IN YEWA SOUTH LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA OF OGUN STATE, NIGERIA Akerele, Ezekiel Olaoluwa; Ologbon, Olugbenga Adesoji Christopher; Otunaiya, Abiodun Olanrewaju; and Ambali, Isiaka Omotuyole Department of Agricultural Economics and Farm Management, College of Agricultural Sciences Olabisi Onabanjo University, Yewa Campus, Ayetoro, Ogun State ABSTRACT This study analysed the consumption pattern of beef among rural households in Yewa South Local Government Area of Ogun State, Nigeria. A two-stage simple random sampling technique was employed, and with the help of 120 well- structured questionnaires, data were collected from 120 rural households. The collected data were then subjected to both descriptive and econometrics statistics (regression analysis, Marginal Propensity To Consume (MPC), price elasticity of beef). The results indicated that the highest age of the consumers was within the age bracket of 30-39 years. 65% of the population was married. Secondary education takes the dominance with 49.2% having it. Their major occupation was petty trading (45%). The results showed that beef price and monthly expenditure on food items negatively affected beef consumption in the area, while beef preference, fish price, beef availability, total monthly income and major occupation positively affected beef consumption. Price elasticity of beef was found out to be -0.90006. The Marginal Propensity Consume of beef was 0.0017484. The identified major constraint to beef consumption in the area was low availability of beef. It is therefore recommended that large scale beef cattle rearing should be encouraged which will help to increase the production of safe beef for consumption.
