  • 10 Leading Farms in Nigeria, Their Owners
    MENU Enter keywords SEARCH About HOME / COVER STORIES / NEWS / 10 LEADING FARMS IN NIGERIA, THEIR OWNERS Corner Protector 10 Leading Farms In Nigeria, Their Owners ABAH ADAH, PAUL CHIAMA — Feb 28, 2014 4:21 am | 18 Comments Before the advent of crude oil, agriculture was the mainstay of Nigeria’s economy. Then, the country’s economy thrived; food was available and affordable. People, therefore, did not go hungry, except in extreme cases occasioned by a serious factor. With the oil boom era, the country and its people shifted attention from agriculture to oil and gas. Subsequently, graduates of Agricultural Science, Soil Science, Agricultural Extension, Agricultural Economics etc., looked for white-collar jobs in banks and other seemingly lucrative areas, including oil and gas. Little did people know that those who remained in agriculture would today be raking in millions and billions of naira, as their products now grace both local and international markets. This gives an impeccable signal that agriculture is, perhaps, more viable than other sectors. Also, it is an indication that well planned investment in agriculture is not a futile effort. It suffices that some Nigerian farmers have successfully built some shining legacies that need to be emulated and replicated. Most of them, as observed, are politicians. In this edition, LEADERSHIP Friday brings to the fore Nigeria’s top ten biggest farmers. OLUSEGUN OBASANJO (OBASANJO FARM) Chief Olusegun Obasanjo is not only a retired army officer, former head of state and politician, he is also a successful farmer. He owns Ota Farm, which is also called Obasanjo Farms.

  • The Graduating Class of 1988
    THE GRADUATING CLASS OF 1988 MEDICAL AND DENTAL STUDENTS COLLEGE OF MEDICINE UNIVERSITY OF IBADAN IBADAN PREFACE This is the sixth edition of the Year Book for Graduating Medical and Dental Students of the College of Medicine, University of Ibadan. Our ability to produce this edition against all the odds encountered during the session confirms the comment in the preface to the fifth edition that we have overcome the "risks of Childhood mortality". We have maintained the general format of the book, with only a slight modification in the presentation of the jokes and popular saying to reflect the various aspects of life in the medical school. In the past one year, quite a number of our teachers have left the services of the University and it appears the trend will continue for some time to come. We shall continue to call on the government of this country to save medical education in Nigeria by ensuring that our high calibre teachers remain in the country through the provision of conditions of service that are commensurate with their status in the society The acceptance of our medical teachers all over the world is a testimony to their professional competence of which we are very proud. No nation can ignore the problems attendant on mass exodus of her best brains in time of National calamities as Nigeria is doing now. The situation must be rectified as a matter of urgency for the benefit of generations unborn. The economic crunch has continued to affect us negatively. The production cost of this edition is higher than the cost at which it is being offered to students.

  • ABSTRACT This Study Aimed at Using Ntfps Businesses in Ikenne Local Government Area (LGA) to Develop a Poverty Reduction Policy Framework for the Region
    International Journal of Asian Social Science 2(9):1401-1420 International Journal of Asian Social Science journal homepage: http://www.aessweb.com/journal-detail.php?id=5007 NON-TIMBER FOREST PRODUCTS AND POVERTY REDUCTION POLICY FRAMEWORK IN IKENNE LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA, OGUN STATE, NIGERIA Adeleye Olufemi Zaccheaus1 Okezie Goodluck Nwokoma2 ABSTRACT This study aimed at using NTFPs businesses in Ikenne Local Government Area (LGA) to develop a poverty reduction policy framework for the region. Among many other NTFPs in the LGA, wrap leaf, fire wood and charcoal were adopted for this study. The design was the survey methodology, in which five communities were surveyed. Twenty questionnaires were administered in each of the communities, out of which eighty- eight were returned, consisting of Ilisan (25%), Ikenne (21.59%), Iperu (19.32%), Ogere (11.36%) and Irolu (22.73%). The main outcome measurement was to evaluate how investment in NTFPs impacted the local economy of Ikenne LGA, in the light of creation of employment and generation of income, consequent to reduction of poverty. At both the 5% and 1% (1-tail) significance levels, the selected correlated variables were significant and linearly correlated. Consequently, and based also on the < 0.05 values of all the p- values, the educational qualification and type of NTFP, source of collection and total sale per week, bundle buying cost and bundle price etc, were significantly correlated. However, the correlation coefficient showed a disaggregated effect on the individual communities. Generally, only the uneducated are investing in NTFPs. Ilisan was highest for primary, while Ikenne recorded the highest of 47.4% for non-formal education.

Content will always include biographies already available in the database itself, but original contributions related to African Christian biography or to African church history are also welcome.

Accepted 29 August,2014 Arable lands are fixed and demand for food is increasing; land holdings are small because of land fragmentation due to an increasing population pressure. Unless land is intensively and more productively used, it’s unlikely to provide enough food for consumption and sale. Land productivity can only improve if soil fertility were improved. To overcome the soil the soil fertility problem, farmers in Ikenne Local government area need fertilization for crop production. Rapid population growth has made Africa to be no longer viewed as a land-abundant region where food crop supply could be increased by expansion of land used in agriculture. This study was conducted with the use purposive sampling techniques, ninety-one (91) crop farmers were selected and data was collected from them using structured questionnaire. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and multiple regression analysis. Majority of farmers, 75.8% of respondents had above primary education, 59.3% participated in cooperative societies, 64.8% had no contact with extension agents and 48.4% had at least 15 years of farming experience. It was also revealed that the adoption of only organic fertilizer use increased with credit access and extension contact but declines with increase in farm size and cooperative membership.
