Borno State OUTCOMES of CONSULTATIONS 29 Adamawa State 33 Yobe State BASIC - Better Assistance in Crises REPORT Mapping Linkages of Humanitarian Cash Transfers and Social Protection in Borno, Adamawa and Yobe (BAY) States, North East Nigeria CASH WORKING CWG GROUP NIGERIA BASIC - Better Assistance in Crises Ibrahim just returned to Bama, Borno after being displaced for over four years. He is lucky enough to own land close to town where it is relatively safe to cultivate crops. Aid actors gave him some agricultural tools and a small grant. Everyday he goes with his wife and seven children to work in the fields. The harvest he gets will bring him resources for the whole year. This is the first time in five years that he can access his land and he really hopes being able to break away from depending on humanitarian assistance.

BASIC aims to tackle bottlenecks at global and country level that prevent greater use of social protection approaches in crises through two components: • Technical Assistance Services – Expert advice and support for the scoping, design and delivery of more effective assistance systems. • Research – To build a robust evidence base, research that strengthens both global and country-specific learning on using social protection approaches to respond to crises, in different contexts, and the costs and benefits of such approaches. BASIC Technical Assistance Services are delivered through the Expert Advisory Call Down Service (EACDS) - Lot B, managed by DAI, that delivers high quality support to UK Government across a wide range of development and humanitarian challenges such as programme design, risk and contingency financing, understanding changing systems and strategic integration of humanitarian action and development.

  • Rural Non-Farm Income and Inequality in Nigeria
    2. BACKGROUND INFORMATION, DATA AND SURVEY AREA The utilized data were collected from five different villages surveyed in rural Northern Nigeria between 2004 and 2005. These villages are situated within the Hadejia-Nguru floodplain wetlands of Jigawa state in Northern Nigeria. Data were collected from 200 households selected using a multi-stage stratified random sampling approach. The first sampling stratum was selection of the dry savanna region of northern Nigeria, which comprises six states: Sokoto, Kebbi, Zamfara, Kano, Kaduna and Jigawa. The second stratum was the selection of Jigawa state. Two important elements informed this choice. First, Jigawa state, which was carved out of Kano state in August 1991, has the highest rural population in Nigeria; about 93 percent of the state’s population dwells in rural areas3. Second, agriculture is the dominant sector of the state’s economy, providing employment for over 90 percent of the active labor force. For effective grassroots coverage of the various agricultural activities in Jigawa state, the Jigawa Agricultural and Rural Development (JARDA) is divided into four operational zones that are headquartered in the cities of Birni Kudu, Gumel, Hadejia and Kazaure. Hadejia was selected for this study, forming the third stratum of sampling. Within the Hadejia emirate, there are eight Local Government Areas (LGAs): Auyo, Birniwa, Hadejia, Kaffin-Hausa, Mallam Madori, Kaugama, Kirikasamma and Guri. Kirikasamma LGA was selected for this study, representing the fourth sampling stratum. Kirikassama LGA was specifically chosen because of the area’s intensive economic development and correspondingly higher human population compared to many other parts of Nigeria. In the fifth stratum of sampling, five villages were selected from Kirikassama LGA: Jiyan, Likori, Matarar Galadima, Turabu and Madachi.

Data collection were based on direct household survey of dietary intake from 266 households using structured questionnaire and supplementary secondary data on aggregate food production and population dynamic parameters were collected from 2001 to 2017 and analysed using food security index and double logarithmic regression model. Empirical results show the dominance of male headed households (93%) with average age of 45 years and household size of 12 members. Result of the construct of household food security index shows that 58% of the households were food insecure; subsisting on 1,667kcal/day/person as against the food security threshold of 2,730. The estimates from regression analysis show that population growth and birthrates increase significantly and consistently the likelihood of food insecurity while death rate and life expectancy exert positive and significant influence on food security.

  • (Nigeria) As the Growth Centre of Jigawa State A.A Jolaoye, Garba I.A
    International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research Volume 10, Issue 2, February-2019 300 ISSN 2229-5518 An Investigation into the Performance of Dutse (Nigeria) as the Growth Centre of Jigawa State A.A Jolaoye, Garba I.A Abstract— This paper seeks to investigate some key elements of a growth centre; the principle upon which local government headquarters and state capitals creation rest. It attempts to consider in a spatial dimension, the different channels by which the establishment and development of Dutse (Nigeria) has affected its’ region (the rest major settlements in the state) after twenty-seven years of operation. The paper categorized the effects into three distinct classes: direct, indirect and induced effects. The study area is Dutse Capital, Jigawa state, Nigeria. Particular issues considered are related to population movement, (migration and commuting), industrial linkages/interference, labour recruitment and shopping patterns. Primary data was gathered through closed- ended questionnaires administered to the city’s dwellers, the industrialists and their employees for the various aspect of the study. Descriptive analysis was adopted while presentation of the findings was done with charts and tables. The study reveals that the recruitment of labour has had some pronounced effects on the settlements in the region/state. That notwithstanding, industrial linkage and the gener- ation of economic activities is limited to Dutse itself. In other words, these effects have not appreciably affected the towns and villages in the state. The trickle-down effects of the growth centre have not manifested to a stage reliable enough to sustain economic growth in the state under the investigation Index Terms— Growth centre, region, population movement, industrial linkage, the trickle-down effect.
