  • Agrometeorological Bulletin No.25, Dekad 1, September (1 – 10) 2011
    NIGERIAN METEOROLOGICAL AGENCY 33 POPE JOHN PAUL II STREET, MAITAMA DISTRICT, P.M.B. 615, GARKI, ABUJA, NIGERIA Agrometeorological Bulletin No.25, Dekad 1, September (1 – 10) 2011 SUMMARY The 1st dekad of September witnessed moderate to heavy rains across the country. Most parts of the south and some parts of the north central had rainfall amounts exceeding 100mm. Surplus soil moisture conditions were observed in most parts of the country exception for few areas like Sokoto, Gusau, Katsina, Nguru, Potiskum, Maiduguri, Ilorin and Warri which had deficits. Most parts of the country had normal temperatures while warmer than normal temperatures have persisted along the extreme north (Sokoto, Katsina, Nguru, Potiskum, Maiduguri, Gusau and Kano). Areas in and around Jos, Shaki, Iseyin and Eket were colder than normal. Temperatures below 32 Deg C were recorded in most parts of the country while the extreme north had above 32 Deg C. Harvest of maize, cassava, fruity vegetables and new yams remained the dominant field activity during the dekad. 1.0 RAINFALL TREND 1.1 Rainfall Anomaly Katsina, Nguru, Maiduguri, Ilorin Shaki and Warri which had below 30mm. The highest rainfall amounts were recorded in Uyo, Ogoja and Asaba with 211.9mm, 221.3mm and 289.6mm respectively. 1.3 COMPARISON OF NORMAL WITH ACTUAL RAINFALL FOR THE DEKAD Figs 3A & B below are the comparison of the actual rainfall amount with normal rainfall values in some selected stations across the south and the north of the country. Both figures show that most stations in both the north and south had below normal rainfall.

  • Lessons from Colombia for Curtailing the Boko Haram Insurgency in Nigeria
    Lessons From Colombia For Curtailing The Boko Haram Insurgency In Nigeria BY AFEIKHENA JEROME igeria is a highly complex and ethnically diverse country, with over 400 ethnic groups. This diversity is played out in the way the country is bifurcated along the lines of reli- Ngion, language, culture, ethnicity and regional identity. The population of about 178.5 million people in 2014 is made up of Christians and Muslims in equal measures of about 50 percent each, but including many who embrace traditional religions as well. The country has continued to experience serious and violent ethno-communal conflicts since independence in 1960, including the bloody and deadly thirty month fratricidal Civil War (also known as the Nigerian-Biafran war, 1967-70) when the eastern region of Biafra declared its seces- sion and which claimed more than one million lives. The most prominent of these conflicts recently pitch Muslims against Christians in a dangerous convergence of religion, ethnicity and politics. The first and most dramatic eruption in a series of recent religious disturbances was the Maitatsine uprising in Kano in December 1980, in which about 4,177 died. While the exact number of conflicts in Nigeria is unknown, because of a lack of reliable sta- tistical data, it is estimated that about 40 percent of all conflicts have taken place since the coun- try’s return to civilian rule in 1999.1 The increasing wave of violent conflicts across Nigeria under the current democratic regime is no doubt partly a direct consequence of the activities of ethno- communal groups seeking self-determination in their “homelands,” and of their surrogate ethnic militias that have assumed prominence since the last quarter of 2000.

United Nations Development Programme: Arid Zone Research Niamey- Niger Abstract Aridity index (AI) is a numerical indicator of the degree of dryness of the climate at a given location. These indicators serve to identify and delimit regions that suffer from a deficit of available water, a condition that can severely affect the effective use of agricultural land and water resources development. The focus of this paper is to determine the trend and map out the aridity of the drought prone areas of northern Nigeria. Three decade’s (1981–2010) annual rainfall and, minimum and maximum temperature records for 11 synoptic meteorological stations were collected from NIMET Office, Lagos and used. De Martonne’s aridity index formula was applied to the data and aridity indices were derived for the region. The derived aridity indices were subjected to time series analysis and classification of the region into aridity zones was carried out based on the derived aridity indices from which an aridity map of the region was produced.

  • Drought Occurrences and Its Implications on the Households in Yobe State, Nigeria Jude Nwafor Eze
    Eze Geoenvironmental Disasters (2018) 5:18 Geoenvironmental Disasters https://doi.org/10.1186/s40677-018-0111-7 RESEARCH Open Access Drought occurrences and its implications on the households in Yobe state, Nigeria Jude Nwafor Eze Abstract The study assesses the extent of droughts and its implications on the households in the study area. This is to highlight the need to integrate drought adaptation options into the government development plans. Strategies for drought adaptation options in the study area have often been made without experimental foundations placed on the extent of drought and its implications on the households. To achieve this, the study employed Normalized Rainfall Index (NRI) to determine the extent of droughts and its implications on the households, which has much to offer in terms of policy decisions. The study also utilized questionnaire administrated to 400 households to determine the annual income from different occupations that yielded more income to the people in the study area using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). The NRI shows that the study area was characterized by mild to severe drought events. The first (1986–1995) and third (2006–2017) decades experienced high incidences of droughts, while the second decade (1996–2005), witnessed the least incidences of droughts. The result of the economic activities of the households reveals that 65% of the total household respondents were involved in farming, while 35% were involved in non-farming activities as their major source of livelihood. The analysis of variance on the economic activities that generated more income to the households in Yobe State shows that farming activities provided more opportunities for income generation.

  • Boko Haram Threatens to Cut Borno State from Nigeria
    AFRICA Boko Haram Threatens to Cut Borno State from Nigeria OE Watch Commentary: The excerpted article from a Nigerian source discusses how Boko Haram’s current strategy risks cutting off northeastern Nigeria’s Borno State from the rest of the country. For several weeks in January, the group attacked the crucial Kano-Maiduguri highway connecting northern Nigeria’s largest city, Kano, with Borno’s capital, Maiduguri. The article points out that this is similar to the group’s strategy during the height of its territorial conquests in 2013-2014 in Borno, when it sought to render that highway and other roads inaccessible by bombing major bridges and occupying roadside villages. In terms of tactics, the article observes that Boko Haram often dresses in military attire, which makes drivers mistakenly believe the militants are the army. This enables the group to set Civilian Joint Force members patrol in Maiduguri. up fake checkpoints and capture or kill passengers and disrupt Source: C. Oduah (VOA) via Wikimedia, https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Civilian_Joint_Force_members_patrol_in_Maiduguri.jpg, Public Domain traffic. In particular, the article states that Boko Haram has recently begun to target aid workers and Christians on the highways and released their execution videos through media channels affiliated with the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). In a worst case scenario, the article argues that the Kano-Maiduguri highway would have to be closed down, which would severely affect trade in northern Nigeria. This is why, apparently, Borno governor Babagana Zulum has urged the military to take all measures to secure that highway.

Multiple regressions were used to determine the relationship between the inputs and outputs variables. The result shows that they were at 5% level of significant. Keywords: agro forestry, Potiskum, farmers, respondents INTRODUCTION Food crisis declining forest resources and environmental degradation are the problems of wide spread concern in the world and Nigeria today. Anon (1991) pointed out, that the agricultural production system in most developing countries of the world has deteriorated due to inability to produce enough food for their teaming population, coupled with the demands for rapid industrialization and urbanization.
