  • Human Migratory Pattern: an Appraisal of Akpabuyo, Cross River State, Nigeria
    IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 22, Issue 7, Ver. 16 (July. 2017) PP 79-91 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Human Migratory Pattern: An Appraisal of Akpabuyo, Cross River State, Nigeria. 1Iheoma Iwuanyanwu, 1Joy Atu (Ph.D.), 1Chukwudi Njoku, 1TonyeOjoko (Arc.), 1Prince-Charles Itu, 2Frank Erhabor 1Department of Geography and Environmental Science, University of Calabar, Calabar, Cross River State, Nigeria 2Department of Geography and Environmental Management, Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, Kaduna State, Nigeria Corresponding Author: IheomaIwuanyanwu ABSTRACT: This study assessed migration in Akpabuyo Local Government Area (LGA) of Cross River State, Nigeria. The source regions of migrants in the area were identified; the factors that influence their movements, as well as the remittances of migrants to their source regions were ascertained. A total of 384 copies of questionnaires were systematically administered with a frequency of 230 and 153 samples for migrants and non-migrants respectively. Amongst other findings from the analyses, it was established that Akpabuyo is home to migrants from other LGAs and States, especially BakassiLGA and EbonyiState. There were also migrants from other countries such as Cameroon and Equatorial Guinea. The Pearson‟s correlation analysis depicted significant relationship (P = 0.012) between distance to Akpabuyo and the number of migrants that come into the area, implying that distance significantly influences migration to Akpabuyo. Furthermore, the Correspondence Analysis (CA) showed a weak association between the pull and push factors in the area, buttressed by the chi-square testwhich showed insignificant statistical similarity (p = 0.118). It was also established that migrants remitted 74% of their income to their source regions.

  • Market Place and Integration: Interrogating Obudu And
    International Journal of Integrative Humanism Vol. 12, No. 1, March. 2020 MARKET PLACE AND INTEGRATION: INTERROGATING OBUDU AND TIV WOMEN IN CROSS BORDER TRADE By IROM, OBAR AYAMI Department of History and International Studies University of Calabar Calabar - Nigeria [email protected], [email protected] 08066632945, 07086510451 Abstract Obudu and Tiv people share boundary with Obudu located on the northern side of Cross River State and Vandeikya on the southern side of Benue state. As neighbours, they have interacted among themselves although these interactions were sometimes friendly and other times hostile. In most discussions and researches around these areas, the emphasizes has been more on factors that have tended to disunite them like wars and ways of resolving them. Not much attention has been given to the market place which apart from being an economic device for the distribution of goods, also brings people of diverse ethnic, cultural, linguistic and religious affiliations. Why is the market place synonymous with women and why do they take so much risk across warring borders to market places? The paper relies on field work carried out in these areas to demonstrate how economic intercourse through the venue of the market place brought about integration of people, cultures and ideas in the area. The paper concludes that there is a need to reposition the market place to once again play its historic role as a center of unity in the midst of the challenges of cooperate existence facing these border communities and the nation at large. Key Words: Cross Border, Inter-group relations, Obudu, Tiv, Trade, Introduction The history of cross border trade among communities’ dates back to pre-colonial times.

To achieve this objective, a research hypothesis was formulated. A total of 200 Health workers were randomly selected using survey inferential research design from the population of 320 Health workers in the study area. A well validated Likert type scale instrument called Immunization Related Issues Questionnaire (IRIQ) consisting of 22 items with a reliability index of 0.84 was the instrument for data collection. Data collected from the respondents were subjected to the Chi-Suare statistics to test the hypothesis in the study. The result of the test was significant at 0.05 level and it was concluded that funding significantly influences effective implementation of immunization programme in Bekwarra Local Government Area. The study noted that adequate funds are not provided for effective implementation of National Programme on Immunization (NPI), and whenever funds are provided, it is often mismanaged. Also, it was revealed that non-governmental organization (NGOs) should assist in funding immunization programme by providing logistics and technical equipment for effective programme implementation.
