(iii) Annual Treatment Objectives: (ATO): the estimated number of persons living in meso/hyper-endemic areas that a CDTI project intends to treat with ivermectin in a given year. (iv) Ultimate Treatment Goal (UTG): calculated as the maximum number of people to be treated annually in rrteso/hyper-endemic areas within the project area, ultimately to be reached when the project has reached full geographic coverage (normally the project should be expected to reach the UTG at the end of the 3'o year of the project). (v) Therapeutic Coverage: number of people treated in a given year over the total population (this should be expressed as a percentage) (vi) Geographical Coverage: number of communities treated in a given year over the total number of meso/hyper-endemic communities as identified by REMO in the project area (this should be expressed as a percentage). (vii) lntegration: delivering additional health interventions (i.e. vitamin A supplements albendazole for LF, screening for cataract, etc) through CDTI (using the same systems, training, supervision and personnel) in order to maximize cost effectiveness and empower communities to solve more of their health problems. This does not include activities or interventions carried out by commun'ity distributors outside of CDTI. (viii) Sustainability: CDTI activities in an arca arc sustainable when they continue to function effectively for the foreseeable future, with high treatment coverage integrated into the available healthcare service, with strong community ownership, using resources mobilized by the community and the government. (ix) Community Self-Monitoring (CSM): The process by which the community is empowered to oversee and monitor the performance of CDTI (or any community based health intervention programme), with a view to ensuring that the programme is being executed in the way intended. lt encourages the community to take full responsibility of ivermectin distribution and make appropriate modifications when . necessary. vll FOLLOW UP ON TCC RECOMMENDATIONS Using the table below, fill in the recommendations of the last TCC on the project and describe how they have been addressed.

However, the slight reduction observed in the population to be covered by a CDD was informed by on-the-spot training / retraining conducted by SOCT during field assignments. The FLHF staff also took the challenge of report rendition of CDDs on monthly basis for educating them on proper record keeping. LOCTs supervisory visits of Oncho field activities equally utilized for the informal training of CDDs during the od under review 5 Reduce absertees The number of either absentees and / or and Refusals refusals was significantly reduced (during the reporting period). This success was attributable to aggressive health education and mobilization of endemic communities. (Please add more rows if necessary) I EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Osun State is one of the States in the South Western part of Nigeria and is located in the B Health Zone. The State has a population of about 2.2million (1991 census). lt is estimated that 830310 people are at risk of Oncho infection in all the 30 LGAs in the State. lt is predominantly Yoruba State. Other ethnic groups like Hausa, lbo, Fulanis and Agatus also reside in all parts of the State. Osun State project is in the seventh year of its implementation. Ennphasis was mostly placed on grass-root involvement and participation for CDTI sustainability. lntegration planning meetings were held as an important strategy to enlist the active involvement of other PHC Programme Officers in the State. Population movements occur with periodic relocation of some farmers from the communities during the farming period, festivity migrations from rural to urban areas, and some mothers travel to look after their sons' wives who have been delivered of babies.

Citation African Study Monographs (2017), 38(3): 147-171 Issue Date 2017-09 URL https://doi.org/10.14989/227071 Right Type Departmental Bulletin Paper Textversion publisher Kyoto University African Study Monographs, 38 (3): 147–171, September 2017 147 THE MINORITY QUESTION IN IFE POLITICS, 1946–2014 Abimbola O. ADESOJI, Taofeek O. HASSAN, Nurudeen O. AROGUNDADE Department of History, Obafemi Awolowo University ABSTRACT The minority problem has been a major issue of interest at both the micro and national levels. Aside from the acclaimed Yoruba homogeneity and the notion of Ile-Ife as the cradle of Yoruba civilization, relationships between Ife indigenes and other communities in Ife Division (now in Osun State, Nigeria) have generated issues due to, and influenced by, politi- cal representation. Where allegations of marginalization have not been leveled, accommoda- tion has been based on extraneous considerations, similar to the ways in which outright exclu- sion and/or extermination have been put forward. Not only have suspicion, feelings of outright rejection, and subtle antagonism characterized majority–minority relations in Ife Division/ Administrative Zone, they have also produced political-cum-administrative and territorial ad- justments. As a microcosm of the Nigerian state, whose major challenge since attaining politi- cal independence has been the harmonization of interests among the various ethnic groups in the country, the Ife situation presents a peculiar example of the myths and realities of majority domination and minority resistance/response, or even a supposed minority attempt at domina- tion.

I (October. 2016), PP 82-88 www.iosrjournals.org Economic Analysis of Cocoa Production in Ilesha Metropolis of OSUN State Akinniran, T. N*,Taiwo, K. B.** *Department of Agricultural Economics, LadokeAkintola University of Technology, Ogbomoso, Nigeria **Department of Animal Production and Health, Oyo State College of Agriculture Igboora Abstract: Before the discovery of oil, agriculture was the main stay of Nigeria economy it was a major component of the gross domestic product (GDP) contributing asmust as 75% to the country economy. The following cash crops: cocoa, oil palm, groundnuts, timber, rubber as well as staple food crops like rice, maize, millet, beans among others are agricultural products in Nigeria then. With discovery of oil in late fifties, agricultural sector was neglected and the country moved from self-sufficient to one of heavily dependence on importation of food crops such as rice, wheat, rice etc. to feed her populace. Cocoa farmers in Ilesha constitute the sampling frame for the study. A two-stage random sampling technique was used in selecting the respondents for the study. Random sampling technique was used to select Nine (9) cells in the study area, followed by purposive selectionof ten (10) cocoa farmers, which gives a sample size of ninety (90) cocoa farmers. Primary data were collected through the use of structured questionnaire and interview schedule. Information collected was analyzed using descriptive statistics, regression analytical tools and budgetary technique to: present the socio-economic characteristics of the respondents,determine the level of relationship between the dependent and independent variables anddetermine the costs and returns, hence profitability of cocoa production.

To achieve this aim, scores in attendance and examinations for 3,050 students in the last three years were collected from 61 state-owned Secondary Schools out of a total of 208 Schools in the State. Two hypotheses were formulated and tested in this respect while descriptive and inferential statistical techniques were adopted for the analysis. The results indicated that the average attendance scores of students across the ten constituencies in the state are proportional to their examination scores. Also, parents/guardians ranked poverty level (M = 3.96), unbearable extra fees imposed on students by the school authority (M = 3.95) and high cost of instructional materials (M = 3.93) as major significant causes for their wards’ absenteeism at 2 2 school. The results of Chi-square value (χ cal = 26.35 > χ tab =7.32) for the test of hypothesis showed that a significant relationship exists between class attendance and academic performance of Secondary School students in the study area.

  • Leveraging Rural Water Supply: Demand Management for Sustainable Healthcare Delivery in South West Nigeria
    Sustainability Today 353 Leveraging rural water supply: demand management for sustainable healthcare delivery in south west Nigeria O. Ojo Osun State University, Department of Geography and Resource Management, Okuku Campus, Nigeria Abstract The study examines the status of rural water supply, demand management, and its implications for sustainable healthcare delivery in selected communities in South West Nigeria. The issue of water availability and accessibility on the one hand and water supply and sustainable healthcare delivery, particularly as related to sanitation and hygiene on the other, were also investigated. Basic data for the study were generated through the use of a questionnaire. Additional information and data were also obtained through pre-tested, qualitative and quantitative instruments and these were analyzed using relevant statistical techniques. The implications of the observed water supply, demand system on sanitation and hygiene practices in the study area were analysed. Some of the challenges facing rural water supply, demand management and their impacts on healthcare delivery in general, and sanitation, and hygiene practices in particular in the study area were also highlighted. The results showed that the present situation of water supply and demand system in the study area is characterized by a substantial water demand deficit with serious implications for effective healthcare delivery in general and sanitation and hygiene practices in particular. Arising from its findings, the study recommends a number of policy options for optimizing rural water supply and demand management for sustainable healthcare delivery in the area. These include the need to identify key variables that influence rural sanitation and hygiene practices, and mainstream such variables into the planning process.

  • Assessment of Runoff Potential for Disaster Risk Reduction Using Geospatial Technology in Opa Watershed, Southwestern Nigeria
    South African Journal of Geomatics, Vol. 10. No. 2, August 2021 Assessment of Runoff Potential for Disaster Risk Reduction Using Geospatial Technology in Opa Watershed, Southwestern Nigeria Orewole Maruf Oladotun National Centre for Technology Management (NACETEM), Federal Ministry of Science and Technology, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Nigeria; [email protected] DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/sajg.v10i2.8 Abstract Flood prediction is very important in land and water resources management. Many flood disasters could be mitigated with adequate preparedness especially in urban watershed. This study assessed the runoff potential of Opa watershed in Southwest Nigeria using remote sensing and the Soil Conservation Service or SCS curve number (CN) techniques. The 2007 NigSat image of the year 2007 was classified into different land cover classes and combined with its hydrological soil groups to determine the curve number of each sub-watershed. The sub-watershed with low curve number is considered to have lower runoff potential while the one with higher curve number is considered to have higher runoff potential. The CN was also used to estimate the potential maximum retention, (S) and potential runoff, (Q) for each sub-watershed using a rainfall event of 2-year return period in the watershed. The weighted runoff was used to determine sub-watersheds with highest and lowest runoff potential. The study showed that urban sub-watershed 9 with average CN value of 85.93 has highest weighted runoff potential (5.53 mm) while the vegetated sub-watershed 10 with average CN value of 69.46 has the lowest weighted runoff potential (0.34 mm).

The study specifically examined the perceived causes of economic recession, investigated the perceived effects and identified the coping strategies adopted by the male and female members of the rural households during economic recession and their level of adoption. A multistage procedure was used to select 120 respondents from 6 local Government Areas of the State. An interview schedule was used to collect data from the respondents. The collected data were analysed using appropriate descriptive and inferential statistics such as frequency counts, percentages, means and independent T-test analysis. The mean ages of the male and female respondents were 45.2 ± 14.1 years and 37 ± 12.6 years respectively. The majority of the males (78.3%) and females (80%) were married with the mean household size of 7 ± 3 people for the male and 6 ± 2 for the female respondents. The cause of economic recession mostly perceived by the male and female respondents was poor economic planning (mean꞊3.87, 3.77), while prioritizing spending (mean=2.80, 2.52) was the most adopted strategy by both males and females.
