The major source of data is secondary and the statistical technique is the step-wise multiple regression. The household income was used as an index of development while the socio-economic variables included population, education, and employment, capital water projects, housing unit, health centres, industries and police station. Four key socio-economic variables of population, health centres, employment and capital water projects were identified as being responsible for 80% of the variation in the development of Delta state of Nigeria among other variables. Solutions to identified problems were proffered. Keywords: Socio Economic, Development Delta, Introduction There is no single agreed definition of economic development.

  • Atubi Augustus Orowhigo* ABSTRACT KEYWORDS
    ORIGINAL RESEARCH PAPER Volume-8 | Issue-4 | April-2019 | PRINT ISSN No 2277 - 8179 INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH ACCESSIBILITY AND THE PROVISION OF PUBLIC FACILITIES IN DELTA STATE, NIGERIA (1976-2016): A NEXUS Geography Ph.D. Department of Geography and Regional Planning, Delta State University, Abraka - Atubi Nigeria Augustus Ph.D. Department of Geography and Regional Planning, Delta State University, Abraka - Orowhigo* Nigeria *Corresponding Author ABSTRACT The need for this research is based on the understanding that location of public facilities cannot be properly done without reference to their accessibility by users. It is in recognition of the need for access to facilities that various measures or re-organisations have taken place in Delta State. The data collected for the period between 1976 and 2016, were based on government documents. A classication of 50 sampled settlements, called centres, is rst developed based on population size. By means of graph theory, the complex network of roads is abstracted into set of nodes and edges. These nodes were subsequently weighted according to their number and functions. Also, the Pearson's Product Moment Correlation Coefcient was employed as well as the students 't' test. The analysis reveals a certain pattern of association. That the high correlation coefcient between specialist hospitals and post secondary institutions (r = 0.60) does not mean that occurrence of a hospital, necessarily lead to the occurrence of post – secondary institutions, but it does imply that both tend to be located in the same place within the study area. On the basis of the ndings of this study recommendations were suggested on how to improve accessibility and promote the equitable provision of public facilities in Delta State, Nigeria.

    CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION Background to the Study The work explores the evolution of the local government institution in Urhoboland from 1916 to 1999. As a study on grassroots administration in the area, it invariably covers the impact of the system, especially in terms of political and socio-economic development. Scholarly studies have demonstrated the relevance of grassroots political institutions to societal development and indicated that they started with the earliest political systems. On the other hand, local government is the modern terminology for this concept. Therefore, the study analyses the traditional grassroots institution in Urhoboland by 1916 before exploring the gradual creation of totally new grassroots structures and paradigms and their attendant dynamics which in some cases were more complex and also different in many respects from the traditional system among the Urhobo. It has been observed that local government administration is yet to live up to expectation in Nigeria1 even though it could be a key instrument of promoting national development. This has made it imperative to examine the index details in each locality in order to pinpoint the extent to which they are reflected in analysis of the general factors in the evolution of the system at the national and regional levels. For instance, the experience of the Urhobo and other ethnic groups in the former Warri District,2 shows that what is now known as the “Niger Delta Question”3 has some link with the nature of the management of grassroots administration. 1 On the one hand, the major policies of British colonial local government system in Urhoboland gradually eroded some of its basic elements of political dynamism and compounded the nature of grassroots politics and inter-group relations.

  • Application of Electrical Resistivity Survey to Sand Mining at Ewu Near the Coastal Area of Delta State, Nigeria
    Available online a t www.pelagiaresearchlibrary.com Pelagia Research Library Advances in Applied Science Research, 2013, 4(1):291-299 ISSN: 0976-8610 CODEN (USA): AASRFC Application of electrical resistivity survey to sand mining at Ewu near the coastal area of Delta state, Nigeria Okolie E. C Physics Department, Delta State University Abraka Nigeria ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT In recent time, utilization of sand has increased greatly and commercialized because many road-construction companies now use a lot of sand to enforce their roads to give face-lift. This is common near the coastal areas in Niger Delta region where the roads are often flooded in the rainy season. It is therefore necessary to empirically source for and ascertain sites with appreciable sand deposits for effective mining. Hence, Electrical resistivity soundings were made in five stations in Ewu, Delta State to investigate the occurrence of sand in relation to its economic viability. The field data were measured using a sensitive terrameter and were plotted on bi-log graphs. The sounding curves were analyzed and iterated with computer software. The results obtained were used to generate geoelectric sections from which the available sand deposits were quantified. The sections show that Ewu has six and seven subsurface layers of near homogeneous stratification with AQH, KHH, and KHA - curve types. They also indicate that Ewu has huge loose sand deposits to far depth of over 27 m which can be mined appreciably and commercially. From the study, it is also obvious that viable aquifer at Ewu is within 30 - 45 metres and the static water level is about 26 metres.

  • Impact Evaluation of Agricultural Infrastructure on Small Holder Farming Production Indelta State, Nigeria
    Nigerian Agricultural Policy Research Journal. Volume 1, Issue 1, 2016. http://aprnetworkng.org Impact Evaluation of Agricultural Infrastructure on Small Holder Farming Production inDelta State, Nigeria D. E. Oyoboh Department of Agricultural Economics and Extension Services, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Benin, Benin City, Edo State, Nigeria Abstract Crop production in Nigeria is dominated by small holder farmers with less than 5 hectares. They make up about 70 percent of the farming population and produce the bulk of the food crops. However, with their immense contributions to the food needs of the country, they are still bedeviled with enormous challenges of inadequate agricultural infrastructures. This study examined the structure of the government agricultural infrastructure and estimated the impact of these infrastructures on the agricultural production of farmers in Delta State. Data were obtained from cross-sectional survey of farmers via the use of a well structured questionnaire. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data. The analysis of the result on the structure of infrastructure using test of difference in proportion showed agricultural infrastructure has significantly improved the structure of rural social infrastructure. However, they have not improved the structure of agricultural infrastructure in Delta State on the general basis. The infrastructures so far provided have increased lake and pond (aquaculture) fishing, livestock number, improved health, farming techniques, produce evacuation and marketing. The recommendations made include: need to increase in agricultural infrastructural base especially in rural physical and institutional infrastructure, with engine boats and articulated agricultural extension programmes. These will be necessary for increased agricultural production and the transformation of rural farmers from socio economic stress.
