  • University Education Finance and Cost Sharing in Nigeria: Considerations for Policy Direction
    0 University Education Finance and Cost Sharing in Nigeria: Considerations for Policy Direction 1Maruff A. Oladejo, 2Gbolagade M. Olowo, & 3Tajudeen A. Azees 1Department of Educational Management, University of Lagos, Akoka, 2Department of Educational Foundations, Federal College of Education (Sp), Oyo 3Department of Curriculum & Instructions, Emmanuel Alayande College of Education, Oyo 0 1 Abstract Higher education in general and university education in particular is an educational investment which brings with it, economic returns both for individuals and society. Hence, its proper funding towards the attainment of its lofty goals should be the collective responsibility of every stakeholders. This paper therefore discussed university education finance and cost sharing in Nigeria. The concepts of higher education and higher education finance were examined, followed by the philosophical and the perspectives of university education in Nigeria. The initiative of private funding of education vis-à-vis Tertiary Education Trust Fund (Tetfund) was brought to the fore. The paper further examined cost structure and sharing in Nigerian university system. It specifically described cost sharing as a shift in the burden of higher education costs from being borne exclusively or predominately by government, or taxpayers, to being shared with parents and students. Findings showed that Tetfund does not really provide for students directly. As regards students in private universities in Nigeria, and that private sector has never been involved in funding private universities. It was recommended among others that there is the need to re-engineer policies that will ensure effective financial accountability to prevent fiscal failure in Nigerian higher educational institutions, as well as policies which will ensure more effective community and individual participation such that government will be able to relinquish responsibility for maintaining large parts of the education system.

  • Causes, Effect and Abatement Measures of Flooding in River Ajilosun Drainage Basin in Ado-Ekiti, Nigeria
    Donnish Journal of Ecology and the Natural Environment Vol 4(1) pp. 001-010 September, 2017 http://www.donnishjournals.org/djene Copyright © 2017 Donnish Journals Original Research Article Causes, Effect and Abatement Measures of Flooding in River Ajilosun Drainage Basin in Ado-Ekiti, Nigeria Arohunsoro, Segun Joseph and Omotoba, Nathaniel Ileri* Department of Geography and Planning Science, Ekiti State University, P.M.B. 5363, Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State, Nigeira. Accepted 28th August, 2017. The paper examined causes, effect and abatement measures of flooding in River Ajilosun drainage basin in Ado-Ekiti, Nigeria. Data were collected on morphometric variables such as channel width and channel depth which were measured with ranging pole and tie rod. Channel efficiency was derived from a mathematical relationship between the channel capacity and the wetted perimeter of the channel. Data on slopes were obtained with Abney level. Data were also obtained on distance of buildings to river valley with a tape measure. 150 copies of questionnaire were also administered systematically to landlords of houses along River Ajilosun in order to obtain information on experience and effect of flooding in the basin. The study employed both descriptive and inferential statistics to analyze the data. The outcome of the descriptive analysis revealed illegal dumping of refuse in stream channel as the principal cause of flooding in River Ajilosun. Other causes of flooding are the heavy and frequent tropical rainfall in the area. The results of the quantitative analysis showed that the geomorphological variables accounted for about 80% of the total variation in spatial extent of flooding in the drainage basin.

  • Le Nigeria Et La Suisse, Des Affaires D'indépendance
    STEVE PAGE Le Nigeria et la Suisse, des affaires d’indépendance Commerce, diplomatie et coopération 1930–1980 PETER LANG Analyser les rapports économiques et diplomatiques entre le Nigeria et la Suisse revient à se pencher sur des méca- nismes peu connus de la globalisation: ceux d’une relation Nord-Sud entre deux puissances moyennes et non colo- niales. Pays le plus peuplé d’Afrique, le Nigeria semblait en passe de devenir, à l’aube de son indépendance, une puissance économique continentale. La Suisse, comme d’autres pays, espérait profiter de ce vaste marché promis à une expansion rapide. Entreprises multinationales, diplo- mates et coopérants au développement sont au centre de cet ouvrage, qui s’interroge sur les motivations, les moyens mis en œuvre et les impacts des activités de chacun. S’y ajoutent des citoyens suisses de tous âges et de tous mi- lieux qui, bouleversés par les images télévisées d’enfants squelettiques durant la « Guerre du Biafra » en 1968, en- treprirent des collectes de fonds et firent pression sur leur gouvernement pour qu’il intervienne. Ce livre donne une profondeur éclairante aux relations Suisse – Nigeria, ré- cemment médiatisées sur leurs aspects migratoires, ou sur les pratiques opaques de négociants en pétrole établis en Suisse. STEVE PAGE a obtenu un doctorat en histoire contempo- raine de l’Université de Fribourg et fut chercheur invité à l’IFRA Nigeria et au King’s College London. Il poursuit des recherches sur la géopolitique du Nigeria. www.peterlang.com Le Nigeria et la Suisse, des affaires d’indépendance STEVE PAGE Le Nigeria et la Suisse, des affaires d’indépendance Commerce, diplomatie et coopération 1930–1980 PETER LANG Bern · Berlin · Bruxelles · Frankfurt am Main · New York · Oxford · Wien Information bibliographique publiée par «Die Deutsche Nationalbibliothek» «Die Deutsche Nationalbibliothek» répertorie cette publication dans la «Deutsche Nationalbibliografi e»; les données bibliographiques détaillées sont disponibles sur Internet sous ‹http://dnb.d-nb.de›.

The study was therefore designed to analyse management practices in Lagos state tertiary institutions through total quality management structural framework. The selected public tertiary institutions in Lagos State were Lagos State University (LASU) Ojo, University of Lagos (UNILAG) Akoka, Michael Otedola College of Primary Education (MOCOPED) Inaforija, Epe, Federal College of Education Technical (FCET)Akoka, and Adeniran Ogunsanya College of Education (AOCOED) Oto-Ijanikin. A descriptive survey research design was adopted. A Total Quality Management practices and Quality Teacher Education Questionnaire (TQMP-QTEQ) was used to obtain data for the study. The structured questionnaire was administered on 905 academic and non-academic staff members and final year students of sampled institutions using purposive sampling technique. The questionnaire was content-validated using expert opinion method and Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) statistics of sampling adequacy. In terms of the measure of reliability, the Cronbach’s Alpha values for the two major constructs of the study are satisfactory – quality teacher education (0.838) and TQM (0.879). Their Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) statistics of sampling adequacy were equally above the acceptable standard of 0.7. The hypotheses were tested at the 5 percent level of significance.

  • Spatial Regression and Geostatistics Discourse with Empirical Application to Precipitation Data in Nigeria Oluyemi A
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Spatial regression and geostatistics discourse with empirical application to precipitation data in Nigeria Oluyemi A. Okunlola1, Mohannad Alobid2*, Olusanya E. Olubusoye3, Kayode Ayinde4, Adewale F. Lukman1 & István Szűcs2 In this study, we propose a robust approach to handling geo-referenced data and discuss its statistical analysis. The linear regression model has been found inappropriate in this type of study. This motivates us to redefne its error structure to incorporate the spatial components inherent in the data into the model. Therefore, four spatial models emanated from the re-defnition of the error structure. We ftted the spatial and the non-spatial linear model to the precipitation data and compared their results. All the spatial models outperformed the non-spatial model. The Spatial Autoregressive with additional autoregressive error structure (SARAR) model is the most adequate among the spatial models. Furthermore, we identifed the hot and cold spot locations of precipitation and their spatial distribution in the study area. Te ordinary least squared regression (OLS) has become a household name in many disciplines, especially when there is a need to investigate the cause and efect relationship between a response variable and one or more covariates1 . However, the reliability of OLS results depends on certain assumptions commonly called the “Gauss Assumption”. One of the stringent of these assumptions is that the error terms in the model should be independent. Te violation of this assumption in the classical regression makes the inference on the coefcient to be invalid due to infated standard error. In real-life situations, this assumption of OLS is not attainable because observations located in space are related to their nearby units 2.
