I (Sep. - Oct. 2015), PP 83-91 www.iosrjournals.org Integrated Geophysical Investigation of a Suspected Spring in Igbokoran, Ikare-Akoko, Southwestern Nigeria Onoja S.O1, Osifila A.J2, 1(Department of Physics, kogi State University Anyigba,Nigeria) 2(Department of Applied Geophysics, Federal University of Technology Akure, Nigeria) Abstract: An integrated geophysical investigation involving self potential (SP), very low frequency electromagnetic (VLF-EM) and electrical resistivity methods (VES) were conducted around a suspected spring in Igbokoran, Ikare Akoko, Ondo State, Nigeria in other to understand the nature of the spring as well as evaluate the feasibility of ground water development in the area. Three geophysical traverses of length 240m each were established in the study area in approximately E-W direction. VLF-EM measurements with station spacing of 10m was used as reconnaissance to delineate conductive zones between 70-160m along traverse 1, 80-170 m along traverse 2 and 60-180m along traverse 3.This was then followed by a total of six (6) VES stations along traverses 2 and 3 using the Schlumberger array with electrode spacing (AB/2) ranging from 1 to 150m. Three geoelectric layers (Top layer, weathered layer, and fresh basement) were delineated along all traverses and a suspected fractured basement along traverse three .The Self Potential (SP) measurements were carried out at 5m electrode separation employing the total fixed base array. SP profiles were generated which show anomalies with short negative amplitudes some of which coincides with the spring zone.

  • The Use of Nigerian Pidgin in Media Adverts
    International Journal of English Linguistics; Vol. 4, No. 2; 2014 ISSN 1923-869X E-ISSN 1923-8703 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education The Use of Nigerian Pidgin in Media Adverts Joseph Babasola Osoba1 1 Department of English, University of Lagos, Akoka, Yaba, Lagos, Nigeria Correspondence: Joseph Babasola Osoba, Department of English, University of Lagos, Akoka, Yaba, Lagos, Nigeria. E-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] Received: November 27, 2013 Accepted: February 1, 2014 Online Published: March 26, 2014 doi:10.5539/ijel.v4n2p26 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ijel.v4n2p26 Abstract The use of Nigerian Pidgin seems to have gained a wider currency since Nigeria’s independence in 1960. Among the educated and barely educated, the pidgin is used profusely in many spheres of life, especially in informal situations. In the mass media (television, radio, magazines and newspapers), schools, higher institutions of learning, government offices, etc., pidgin discourse abounds. In fact, despite the fact that it is not yet an official lingua franca in the country, it is a daily phenomenon in every day affair of an average Nigerian. The nature of Nigerian Pidgin, its easy mode of acquisition as well as the multilingual background of Nigerians may have been responsible for its present status and functions. In the light of the above, I am interested in how meaning is assigned to a piece of pidgin discourse, especially an advert in Nigerian Pidgin. Thus the goal of this paper is to establish how pidgin adverts communicate the intended meaning of their advertisers and how the audiences perceive them through an application of “Presupposition” and “Implicature” as conceptual or theoretical tools.

  • Russia 2019 Human Rights Report
    RUSSIA 2019 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Russian Federation has a highly centralized, authoritarian political system dominated by President Vladimir Putin. The bicameral Federal Assembly consists of a directly elected lower house (State Duma) and an appointed upper house (Federation Council), both of which lack independence from the executive. The 2016 State Duma elections and the 2018 presidential election were marked by accusations of government interference and manipulation of the electoral process, including the exclusion of meaningful opposition candidates. The Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Federal Security Service (FSB), the Investigative Committee, the Office of the Prosecutor General, and the National Guard are responsible for law enforcement. The FSB is responsible for state security, counterintelligence, and counterterrorism as well as for fighting organized crime and corruption. The national police force, under the Ministry of Internal Affairs, is responsible for combating all crime. The National Guard assists the FSB Border Guard Service in securing borders, administers gun control, combats terrorism and organized crime, protects public order, and guards important state facilities. The National Guard also participates in armed defense of the country’s territory in coordination with Ministry of Defense forces. Except in rare cases, security forces generally reported to civilian authorities. National-level civilian authorities, however, had, at best, limited control over security forces in the Republic of Chechnya, which were accountable only to the head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov. The country’s occupation and purported annexation of Ukraine’s Crimean Peninsula continued to affect the human rights situation there significantly and negatively. The Russian government continued to arm, train, lead, and fight alongside Russia-led forces in eastern Ukraine.

B. 001, Akungba-Akoko, Ondo State, Nigeria. e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT A sudden geometric increase in population of Akoko North West Local Government Area of Ondo State has led to an increase in demand for water and harnessing of subsurface water reserve. A total of twenty six water samples obtained from both boreholes and hand-dug wells were analyzed for their physico-chemical characteristics with the aim of assessing their quality, usability and also to determine the level of their contamination in the local government which is dominated by granite gneisses, charnockites, and augen gneisses as the main rock types. The following physico-chemical properties were analyzed for in the samples collected: electrical conductivity (EC), pH, total alkalinity (TA), total dissolved solids (TDS), total suspended solids (TSS), acid neutralizing capacity (ANC) with major cations (Na+, 2+ 2+ 3- - 3- 2+ 2+ + + Mg , Ca ), anions (PO4 , HCO3 , SO4 ) and several heavy metals
