Kayode, Department of Adult Education and Community Development, Ekiti State University, Ado-Ekiti, Nigeria [email protected]. ABSTRACT This study examined jobs in formal and informal sectors of macro communities of Ekiti State, Nigeria, with a view to determine whether they could be described as decent work. The study also examined the existence of social security in the state. While random sampling was used to select nine communities used in this study, a purposeful sampling technique was used to select a total of ten respondents who were currently employed in the formal sector and another ten respondents in the informal sector. These respondents were used for the study. Three research questions guided the study and the instrument used for data collection was combined questionnaire administration and interviews. Questionnaires were administered on 180 purposely-selected respondents. The data obtained from these set of respondents was analysed by using Likert rating scale. Results obtained in the former sector were negative for all the jobs attributes considered while the positive attributes observed in the informal sector were enveloped by failure of the workers in this sector to meet their basic needs for survival. The State lacked social security that could alleviate workers’ poverty. Hence decent work is lacking in the State. Also the enabling environment for decent work is lacking in the state. The inconsistency in policy formulation and implementation, lack of sincerity by government as well as the recently experienced economic recession in Nigeria does not enhanced social security in the state. The study concluded that decent work and social security in the state could be described as a myth rather than a reality. Recommendations capable of attaining decent work and social security in the state were made. Keywords: Decent Work, Social Security, Myth, Reality, Macro Communities INTRODUCTION to achieving a fair globalization and poverty reduction. Decent work involves opportunities Decent work refers to employment that respects for work that are productive and deliver a fair the fundamental rights of the human person as income, security in the workplace and social well as the rights of workers in terms of protection for families, better prospects for conditions of work safety and remuneration personal development and social integration, (Wikipedia 2018). Thus the employment has freedom for people to express their concerns, respect for the physical and mental integrity of organize and participate in the decisions that the worker in the exercise of his/her affect their lives and equality of opportunity and employment. According to ILO (2018), decent treatment for all women and men. work sums up the aspirations of people in their working lives. It involves opportunities for work Decent work is presently made up four pillars in that is productive and delivers a fair income, its agenda. These are employment creation, security in the workplace and social protection social protection, rights at work, and social for families, better prospects for personal dialogue. In September 2015, the United development and social integration, freedom for Nations General Assembly recognised decent people to express their concerns, organize and work as an integral element of the new 2030 participate in the decisions that affect their lives Agenda for Sustainable Development. The Goal and equality of opportunity and treatment for all 8 of the 2030 Agenda calls for the promotion of women and men. sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and In the recent time, there has been a lot of decent work. Thus decent work is expected to concern for decent work as productive eradicate poverty and improve worker standard employment and decent work are key elements of living.

E -mail address: [email protected] Abstract Building raw materials and processed products can vary greatly in radionuclide contents depending on the character and the geology of the their origin. 160 samples of Brick block and 160 samples of Concrete block for constructing dwellings were collected across the Ekiti State, Nigeria. The activity concentrations of 40 K, 226 Ra and 232 Th in the Brick block and Concrete block samples were determined by using gamma-ray spectrometry using a 7.62 cm × 7.62 cm NaI(Tl) detector of dimension, housed in a 6 cm thick lead shield. The results show that the mean activity concentration values of 572.6 ± 175.9 Bq kg -1, 47.9 ± 9.8 Bq kg -1 and 63.8 ± 9.4 Bq kg -1 for 40 K, 226 Ra and 232 Th respectively in concrete blocks are higher compared to the the mean activity concentration values 351.1 ± 3.1 Bq kg -118.7 ± 6.2 Bq kg -1 and 39.8 ± 3.5 Bq kg -1obtained in brick blocks. The absorbed dose rate, Annual dose equivalent, the external hazard and the qualification coefficients were determined.

This had raised serious policy and research concerns that resulted to several reformative approaches in a bid to restructuring the system for efficient service delivery in the past decade. One major unpopular reason for inefficient service delivery was poor administration in the Local Government as a result of unbalanced distribution of personnel by cadre and gender in each local government in the state. This had not only hampered local government administration but also impeded adequate provision of expected services to local populace in line with its mandate as enshrined in the fourth schedule of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Application of Statistical analysis using Chi-square Test of Independence showed that distribution of employees by cadre depends on local government in post in the year under study.

The study aimed at identifying production areas and associated constraints for development of decision support to aid geographical targeting of interventions. 254 Ofada rice farmers in 55 villages in 11 local Government areas of three Nigerian States were identified. Hand held GPS devices were used to obtain coordinates of farms, parboiling milling centres and markets for the commodity. The coordinates were imported into GIS and added to existing base maps. Simple distance analysis was done to show proximity to facilities along the value-chain of the commodity. Results show that the total output per year in the entire production area is about 500 tons while only two production clusters exceeded 130 tons per year. The indication is that Ofada rice production still requires intervention. States that production inputs locations were far from majority of the rice farmers had very low output. There is the need for direct intervention to improve access of farmers to all rice production inputs.
