Nahuche Health and Demographic Surveillance Site, Nigeria Nahuche Health and Demographic Surveillance site, Nigeria Map of Nigeria showing Zamfara State Map of Zamfara State showing Bungudu Local Government Area (location of Nahuche HDSS) Brief Description The Nahuche Health and Demographic Surveillance System Site (HDSS) is located in Nahuche community in Bungudu Local Government Area (LGA) of Zamfara State, in Northwestern Nigeria. The study area is 32 kilometers from the state capital, Gusau, and is made up of six traditional districts of Bella, Gada, Karakai, Nahuche Keku, Nahuche Ubandawaki, and Rawayya which together have a total of 306 villages covering three political wards (out of the 11 political wards in Bungudu LGA). The Nahuche HDSS started in 2009 with a pilot census in May/June 2009 followed by a baseline census (Sept-Dec 2010) and six monthly cycles of data collection beginning in January 2011. As of December 2012, the population under surveillance was 143,600 (72,339 females; 71,261 males) residing in 21,317 households within 7,913 compounds. Literacy levels are very low and infrastructure, including road network, power generation and supply, is inadequate. The general sanitation in the area is poor. Nahuche has a warm climate with temperatures rising to 38 degrees celcius from March to May. Farming is the most common economic activity and unemployment is rampant with associated temporary labour migration of men. Virtually all community members practice Islam and are Hausa by ethnicity. During the baseline, the surveillance population had a youthful age structure (20.4% of individuals were <5 years; 50.9% were <15 years). The elderly (65+ years) accounted for 3% of the population. Mean age was 19.6 years and the most common (88.6%) type of education is Quranic. Nahuche HDSS’s Mission To serve as a beacon for international collaborations on population-based research aimed at developing innovative health service programmes to advance the health and well-being of very low income, rural Northern Nigeria and African populations. Objectives • To assess the dynamic impact of health and social service policy changes on population health and well-being in Nahuche, in order to give real-time feedback on how programs are working. • To provide population-based assessments as a benchmark for comparing to sample survey and other methods for assessing population and health changes. • To provide a platform for collaborative research into innovative strategies to promote health and well-being in very low-income rural African settings. • To disseminate study findings nationally to Nahuche HDSS stakeholders and other upcoming HDSS sites in Nigeria; and internationally to the INDEPTH network, influencing policy and practice. • To support capacity-strengthening and cross-site collaborations among INDEPTH member institutions. Research priorities • Demographic, health and social dynamics • Community based service delivery • Women’s access to micro-credit and health outcomes • Population and environment Nahuche HDSS population pyramid, 2012 2 Selected demographic characteristics, 2012 Vital statistics Value Infant mortality rate 62.8 per 1,000 live births Child mortality rate 208.9 per 1,000 children Under-five mortality rate 272.9 per 1,000 live births Crude death rate 16.8per 1,000 mid-year population Total fertility rate 7.1 births per woman Life expectancy at birth (Females) 52.0 years Life expectancy at birth (Males) 51.7 years Life expectancy at birth (Both sexes) 51.8 years In-migration rate 7.2 per 1,000 mid-year population Out-migration rate 18.8 per 1,000 mid-year population Funders Government of Norway Department for International Development (UKaid) Zamfara State Government (Nigeria) Bungudu Local Government, Zamfara State (Nigeria) Collaborators UsmanDanfodiyo University, SokotoState (Nigeria) Zamfara State Bureau of Statistics National Population Commission Columbia University (Mailman School of Public Health) Selected publications Doctor, HV., A.

Email: [email protected], [email protected] GSM: +234 80 36155215 Abstract The food security situation in drought prone areas of Sokoto, Kebbi and Zamfara States were assessed in this paper. The primary data obtained from the interviewed households was based on a designed structured questionnaire and random selection of the households. Descriptive statistics was used to analysed the socio-economic and demographic data of the households, while regression analysis was used to determine the food security and insecurity status of the households by using Global and Nigerian Bench marks provided by FAO. The results of the study have shown that households size, level of education as well as per capita income have significant effect on status of food security in the study areas. Recommendations were also offered towards achieving food security in the affected areas for national development. 1 1.0 Introduction Food security refers to the condition, in which all people, at all times, have physical, social, and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food that meets their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life (FAO/WHO 1992; FAO 1996).

  • The Case of Biafra
    The Nigerian State and the Resurgence of Separatist Agitations: The Case of Biafra By Ikenna Mike Alumona, Ph.D Department of Political Science, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University, Igbariam +2348039241300, [email protected] & Stephen Nnaemeka Azom, Ph.D Department of Political Science, Federal University Lafia, Nasarawa State +2348036581682, [email protected] & Emeka Charles Iloh Politics and Governance Research Unit, African Heritage Institution, Enugu +2348064879666, [email protected] Abstract In recent times, separatist movements in the South East geopolitical zone have stepped-up struggles for the actualization of the sovereign state of Biafra through protests and other forms of social mobilization. The protests have triggered tension and heightened insecurity, with the security agencies applying excessive force to quell the protests. The extant literature is awash with narratives regarding the recent upsurge and persistent centrifugal demands by pro-Biafra separatists, four decades after the Nigerian civil war. Although these analyses are germane to the subject matter, they essentially suffer from disjointed empiricism, and as such unable to adequately illuminate the understanding of the renewed Biafra separatist agitations. With the aid of secondary data generated through documentary sources, this study systematically presents evidence to demonstrate that pro-Biafra separatist agitations derive from the deteriorating material conditions of the people. Accordingly, the study argues that certain actions, inactions and policies of the Nigerian government, which are perceived to be targeted against the Igbo, have created the feelings of collective victimization among the people which sustains and reinforces the separatist agitations. Moreso, the study highlight the interplay of forces that account for the inability of the Nigerian government to concretely address the challenges of nation-building, and their overall implications for peace-building and sustainable development in Nigeria.
