The 2012 flood displaced tens of thousands of people and affected over half of the thirty six states destroying properties running into billions of naira. Farmlands and fertilizers were destroyed, settlements were totally submerged and cultural artifacts were lost. The flood was the result of many underlying factors of which the main ones were the release of water from the Lagdo Dam a reservoir located in Cameroon, and the persistent rain fall due to a changing global climate. In response to the flood, a UN-CHARTER was invoked and satellite images were provided by various international space agencies. Likewise organizations such as the World Bank, and various UN agencies together with national stakeholders collaborated in the post disaster recovery efforts. The use of space technology during the response proved to be of great economic benefit particularly in the assessment of the extent of the disaster which assisted the government in its reconstruction efforts. Also the foray of Nigeria into space technologies has opened up its economy in diverse ways especially in the areas of local and international collaborations, employment creation and technological spinoffs. I.INTRODUCTION One of the developments associated with the 21st geographical boundaries, race, and economies. For century that has enhanced the process of example, Hurricane Katrina affected one of the collaboration across diverse geographical world’s richest countries and the Haitian boundaries, is globalization. According to Kouman1 earthquake affected one of the least developed Globalization and collaboration simultaneously countries in the world. Nigeria, a developing nation drive each other and the better, faster and smoother was also not spared as it experienced flooding the collaboration processes and tools are, the more especially in the year 2012 on a monumental scale empowered industries and organizations become in affecting many parts of the country. a global economy.

  • Regional Development Needs and Large-Scale Irrigation Projects in Nigeria: a Case Study
    DOI: 10.36108/ssan/5991.07.0150 5 REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT NEEDS AND LARGE-SCALE IRRIGATION PROJECTS IN NIGERIA: A CASE STUDY Femi Olokesusi and Olusegun Aredta ABSTRACT This paper takes a critical look at the main human problems and issues involved in high technology irrigation farming communities in the Sudano-Sahelian zone of Nigeria. Findings of the study provide ample evidence of rural neglect and low level of satisfaction with the irrigation experience. The harsh eco climatic conditions and degradation of the environment account largely for the weight attached to environmental problems. The results of the study also show that water development projects need to consider issues broader in scope than as conceived at the moment. Finally, water resources projects should be subjected to environmental and socio-economic impact assessment. This and other suggestions made should eliminate observed community problems and non-satisfaction with irrigation projects. INTRODUCTION Since the 1966-73 Sudano-sahelian drought in Nigeria, measures have been taken to mitigate and, if possible, neutralize the adverse consequences of this recurrent climatic 74 Annals of The Social Science Council of Nigeria, No. 7. January-December. 1995 hazard. Prominent among such measures have been the development of irrigation and water resources on a large scale (see Table l).Three major River Basin Development Authorities (RBDAs) have been operating in the region since 1973, namely: Chad, Sokoto-Rima and Hadejia-Jama'are RBDAs. The RBDAs were conceived as agents of rural development: they were set up to plan, formulate and implement comprehensive and integrated rural development programmes, with water resources development serving as the pivot or catalyst.

Distressed dams cost a lot of resources and inconveniences to remediate. There is paucity of data on failures and distresses of many earth dams located in the north-eastern part of Nigeria. This study was designed to determine the geological, hydrometeorological, engineering factors and soil properties responsible for the failures and distresses of earth dams. A total of 42 randomly selected earth dams spread across various geologic formations and constructed with different soil materials in north-eastern Nigeria were studied. Data were obtained on failure modes, design and construction features, operation and maintenance, dam safety instrumentations and operations using the Association of State Dam Safety Officials method.

And this have direct implications on cleared off vegetation especially for the reservoir of the dam, ecosystem of the area, making the area to have little or no there by subjecting the land to erosion, land degradation and vegetation. poor fertility. Also with dam construction thousand tones of sediment are trapped within the reservoir of the dam and as such Similarly soil erosion is facilitated down stream, as the flow not allowed to reach downstream, thereby causing variation in of water increase most often downstream (Bravard et al., soil nutrients (chemical constituent) in both up and down stream. 2014).

  • Performance Assessment of Artisanal Fisheries in the Kainji Dam Area of Yauri Emirate, Kebbi State Nigeria
    Journal of Biology, Agriculture and Healthcare www.iiste.org ISSN 2224-3208 (Paper) ISSN 2225-093X (Online) Vol.4, No.20, 2014 Performance Assessment of Artisanal Fisheries in the Kainji Dam Area of Yauri Emirate, Kebbi State Nigeria Umar, S. and A.I. Illo Department of Agricultural Economics and Extension, Faculty of Agriculture, Kebbi State University of Science and Technology, Aliero. Corresponding Author E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Performance assessment of artisanal fisheries was conducted to determine the returns per fishing effort by fisherman in Yauri Emirate Kebbi state. The data collected from 135 randomly selected fishermen in the study area revealed that the fish catch per unit effort by majority of the fishermen has declined to less than 2kg after the establishment of the dam compared to more than 8kg realized by majority of the fishermen before the establishment of the dam. The fishermen attributed the decline in fish catch to obnoxious fishing methods such as; use of beach seine (Dala), use of fish fencing (dumba), use of water shedding (rumfar ruwa) and cutting of Niger grass to catch all species of fish that inhabit the particular surrounding water . The findings of the study revealed that efforts made by governmental and non-governmental organizations to control the exploitative fishing methods were not successful. The results of the study suggest that enlightenment campaign on the effects of exploitative fishing methods, establishment of Community Based Fisheries Management (CBFM) programme, and prosecution of violators of fishing regulation will address the unlawful fishing methods currently practiced in the study area. Keywords: Fishermen, fishing, assessment 1.
