  • Improving Initiation of Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis Among Key Populations in Akwa Ibom, Cross River, and Lagos States
    Nigeria DATA USE BRIEF Improving Initiation of Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis among Key Populations in Akwa Ibom, Cross River, and Lagos States INTRODUCTION Key populations (KP), such as sex workers and men who have sex with men, have the highest HIV prevalence in Nigeria.1 To reduce the HIV infection rate, Nigeria’s HIV program integrated the use of oral pre-exposure prophylaxis2 (PrEP) as a substantive additional measure to existing services for KP. The USAID-funded KP CARE-1 project, implemented by Heartland Alliance Nigeria, established KP one-stop shops (KP OSS) to provide oral PrEP to KPs in three states—Akwa Ibom, Cross River, and Lagos. Each KP one-stop shop was provided with yearly targets for A staffer at a community one-stop shop for key populations distribution of oral PrEP. In this brief, we describe in Nigeria provides PrEP to a client. Photo by Heartland findings from a Data.FI assessment of the work of Alliance Nigeria. Heartland Alliance to reach yearly targets for PrEP distribution, as well as measures taken to improve performance. HOW DATA.FI SUPPORTED THE PREP DATA REVIEW AND USE PROCESS Data.FI collated, validated, and analyzed weekly high-frequency report (HFR) data on the PrEP indicator to assess the achievement of FY20 targets against performance. The results of these weekly HFR analyses were disseminated to Heartland Alliance and discussed during Enhanced Site Management (ESM) cluster meetings supported by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). During these meetings, Data.FI facilitated discussion among all USAID implementing partners (IPs) to review performance, identify gaps, and institute cause-corrective measures.

  • The Effect of Sand Mining on the Physico-Chemical Parameters of Ikot Ekpan River, Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria
    Journal of Aquatic Science and Marine Biology Volume 2, Issue 4, 2019, PP 21-24 ISSN 2638-5481 The Effect of Sand Mining on the Physico-Chemical Parameters of Ikot Ekpan River, Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria Ofonmbuk Ime Obot, Imebong Favour Ekpo, Gift Samuel David* Department of Fisheries and Aquatic Environmental Management, University of Uyo, Uyo, PMB 1017, Nigeria *Corresponding Author: Gift Samuel David, Department of Fisheries and Aquatic Environmental Management, University of Uyo, Uyo, PMB 1017, Nigeria, Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT This study investigated the effects of sand mining on the physico-chemical parameters of Ikot Ekpan River. Four sampling stations were selected. Station one, was a partially dredged section of the river, station 2 and 4; fully dredged portions while station 3, (under the bridge) was not dredged. Temperature, DO, pH, electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids, turbidity, salinity, acidity, BOD, transparency, depth, nitrate, nitrite, sulphate, phosphate and ammonium were measured using standard methods. There were no spatial significant variations (p>0.05) in eleven (temperature, pH, EC, salinity, TDS, BOD, acidity, sulphate, transparency, nitrate and nitrite) of the sixteen parameters measured. However, temperature, EC, salinity, turbidity, sulphate, ammonium, nitrate and nitrite showed significant seasonal variations (p<0.05). The remaining parameters did not show significant seasonal variations (p>0.05). No parameters exceeded WHO standards except for turbidity, thus indicating water quality to be good. Keywords: Sand mining, physico-chemical parameters, stations, DO, Ikot Ekpan River. INTRODUCTION Ikot Ekpan River is a first order stream, which runs through Uyo-Eket road in Nsit Ubium Water quality plays a vital role in the Local Government Area, Akwa Ibom state, distribution, abundance and diversity of aquatic Nigeria.

  • Comparative Analysis of Public and Private Borehole Water Supply Sources in Uruan Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State
    International Journal of Applied Science and Technology Vol. 3 No. 1; January 2013 Comparative Analysis of Public and Private Borehole Water Supply Sources in Uruan Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State Ukpong, E. C B. B. Okon Civil Engineering Department Faculty of Engineering University of Uyo Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria Abstract Comparative analysis of public and private borehole water supply sources in Uruan Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria, was conducted in order to examine their qualities. A total of 13 water samples collected from 10 randomly selected private and 3 functional public boreholes in the area were analysed using standard analytical techniques and instruments. Most of the physicochemical parameters of samples from the two sources were within the acceptable limits of the World Health Organisation (WHO) for drinking water. Eight different bacteria species were isolated and identified. They include Escherichia coli (18.75%), Bacillus subtilis (15.625%), Streptococcus faecalis (15.625%), Proteus vulgaris (12.50%), Klebsiella aerogenes (12.50%), Micrococcus varians (9.375%), Clostridium perfringens (9.37%) and Staphylococcus aureus (6.25%). Total viable count on private borehole water samples ranged from 1.6x103 to 5.5x103cfu/ml while that of the public was 9x101cfu/ml. In the private source, E.coli ranged from 1x100 to 4x100cfu/100ml, whereas 4x100 to 3.4x101cfu/100ml was recorded for the coliforms. Streptococcus faecalis and Clostridium perfringens ranged from 1x100 to 3x100cfu/100ml and 1x100 to 2x100cfu/100ml respectively, and did not meet the approved drinking water standard. There was no growth of indicator organism in samples from the public boreholes.

This study critically examined some of the factors that affect road infrastructure development in Akwa-Ibom State, Nigeria. The study made use of primary data through the use of questionnaire shared to respondents in various professions in the state. The data was analyzed using the relative significance index (RSI). The result showed that over-dependence of road development on public financing was the major factor impacting road infrastructure in Akwa- Ibom state. Also, absence of specific ministry/agency saddled with role of road infrastructure development was the least ranked factor affecting road development in the state. The study thus recommended, among others, that there should be a holistic technical evaluation and cost assessment of road projects before its inclusion into annual budgets. Key Words: Road, Infrastructure, economic, development, Nigeria Introduction Infrastructure is an umbrella term for many activities referred to as social overhead capital by development economists such as Paul Rosenstein Rodan, Ragnar Nurske and Albert Hirschman (Adger, 2015; Woolcock & Narayan, 2000). Road infrastructure has a very high economic impact on the rural/urban integration especially with the creation of any developing State or economy.

  • Resolving Resource Conflict in Nigeria: a Case of Akwa Ibom and Cross River States
    Arabian Journal of Business and Management Review (OMAN Chapter) Vol. 2, No.3; Oct. 2012 RESOLVING RESOURCE CONFLICT IN NIGERIA: A CASE OF AKWA IBOM AND CROSS RIVER STATES. Alao, D.O Ph.D, Ndem, Bassey Ph.D, Atere, Olusegun, Clement, Nwogwugwu, N. and Ojo, O.1 BABCOCK UNIVERSITY, ILISHAN REMO, OGUN STATE,NIGERIA ABSTRACT The Supreme Court Judgment of June 12, 2012 transferring 76 oil wells to Akwa Ibom State following the litigation by Cross River State, brought to the fore the politics of oil resources This motivates the study to examining the mechanism for resolving resource conflicts in Nigeria.. This paper adopted the historical, descriptive and analytical approach as its method of study and qualitative in nature. The study found that political approach and incorporation of traditional norms and values are preferable as a means of solving socio-economic differences among friendly states rather than resorting to litigation. It concludes such disputes are manifestation weak state reflecting in lack of effective institutional mechanisms for resolving conflicts. The study recommends an inclusive mechanism in resource allocation like in Alaska while conciliation and arbitration method should be adopted at the expense of litigation in line with constitutional provisions as this will gradually demystify statetism. 1. INTRODUCTION The issue of boundary and the administration of resources along the boundary line will for a long time constitute a challenge that the government in Nigeria would have to cope with in order to ensure peaceful coexistence among various ethnic nationalities. The terms "border" and "boundary" are physical in origin. Johnson and Machelsen, (1997) observe in most cases, it has a wider meanings in political and economic geography than “frontiers,” which refers to a special case of border used to divide the sovereign limits of adjacent independent according to Guo (2005).
