  • Trends in Owo Traditional Sculptures: 1995 – 2010
    Mgbakoigba, Journal of African Studies. Vol.5 No.1. December 2015 TRENDS IN OWO TRADITIONAL SCULPTURES: 1995 – 2010 Ebenezer Ayodeji Aseniserare Department of Fine and Applied Arts University of Benin, Benin City [email protected] 08034734927, 08057784545 and Efemena I. Ononeme Department of Fine and Applied Arts University of Benin, Benin City [email protected] [email protected] 08023112353 Abstract This study probes into the origin, style and patronage of the traditional sculptures in Owo kingdom between 1950 and 2010. It examines comparatively the sculpture of the people and its affinity with Benin and Ife before and during the period in question with a view to predicting the future of the sculptural arts of the people in the next few decades. Investigations of the study rely mainly on both oral and written history, observation, interviews and photographic recordings of visuals, visitations to traditional houses and Owo museum, oral interview of some artists and traditionalists among others. Oral data were also employed through unstructured interviews which bothered on analysis, morphology, formalism, elements and features of the forms, techniques and styles of Owo traditional sculptures, their resemblances and relationship with Benin and Ife artefacts which were traced back to the reigns of both Olowo Ojugbelu 1019 AD to Olowo Oshogboye, the Olowo of Owo between 1600 – 1684 AD, who as a prince, lived and was brought up by the Oba of Benin. He cleverly adopted some of Benin‟s sculptural and historical culture and artefacts including carvings, bronze work, metal work, regalia, bead work, drums and some craftsmen with him on his return to Owo to reign.

E-mail: [email protected] Telephone: +2348033802694 ABSTRACT Infection with Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) is a public health problem. Worldwide, there are about 170 million people infected with HCV. HCV is transmitted through sex and use of contaminated sharp objects during tattooing or intravenous drug abuse. These routes make youth to be more vulnerable. Transfusion and mother to child transmissions are also documented modes. This study was carried out to determine sero-prevalence of hepatitis C virus infection among in school youth at Achievers University, Owo in southwest Nigeria. Samples of blood were collected from 70 undergraduate students and sera harvested were tested for the presence of antibodies against hepatitis C virus by Enzyme Immunoassay Technique.

    World Rural Observations 2017;9(1) http://www.sciencepub.net/rural Commuting Pattern and Transportation Challenges in Akure Metropolis, Ondo State, Nigeria Gladys Chineze Emenike, Olabode Samson Ogunjobi Department of Geography and Environmental Management, University of Port Harcourt, Port Harcourt, Nigeria [email protected] Abstract: Many urban centers in Nigeria suffer from inadequate facilities that could ensure smooth urban movement. The increase in commuting distance has impact on trip attraction, fares paid by commuters, traffic build- up in some land use areas; and shows the need for different modes of transportation. The study examined the commuting pattern and transportation challenges in Akure Metropolis, Ondo State, Nigeria. A total number of 398 copies of structured questionnaire were distributed to commuters along the selected roads (Oyemekun road, Ondo road, Oba Ile road, Arakale road, Oke Aro road, Hospital road, Ijoka road, Oda road, Danjuma road, and Sijuade road). Data obtained were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Findings showed that 52% were males and more than 70% of respondents were above 20 years. The mostly used type of transport in Akure City was public taxi (40.5%) and majority (49.7%) spent ≤ 30 minutes on the road before reaching their working place while the distance from home to work of more than 50% was ≤ 2km. The main trip purpose for commuters was education (33%) while most of the trips were made in the morning only (29.4%); and morning and evening (32.4%). However, 47.5% of commuters agreed that the peak hour of congestion is always between 7am and 9am.

  • Secondary Sex Ratio in a South-Western Nigerian Town
    International Journal of Genetics ISSN: 0975-2862 & E-ISSN: 0975-9158, Volume 4, Issue 3, 2012, pp.-92-94. Available online at http://www.bioinfo.in/contents.php?id=25 SECONDARY SEX RATIO IN A SOUTH-WESTERN NIGERIAN TOWN TOLULOPE OYENIYI Department of Biological Sciences, College of Science, Engineering and Technology, Osun State University, Osogbo, Osun State, Nigeria. *Corresponding Author: Email- [email protected] Received: July 30, 2012; Accepted: August 06, 2012 Abstract- In this study, the human secondary sex ratio (described as the number of males per 100 female births) in Ondo, a town in South -West Nigeria was analyzed using birth record between 2001 and 2008, obtained at State Specialist Hospital. The analysis of the 11,426 births recorded during the period revealed a secondary sex ratio of 1.14, that is, 114 boys for every 100 girls born. There was a strong correlation (0.236**) between sex ratio and birth outcome indicating that gender has strong influence on child survival. There is however no significant relationship between the sex of baby and the season of birth as the ratio of male to female babies remains unchanged through the seasons. This study reports the first information on secondary sex ratio in Ondo town and gives impetus for further investigations into factors affecting secondary sex ratio among the populations at the study area. Key words- human secondary sex ratio, birth outcome, seasonality, Nigeria Citation: Tolulope Oyeniyi (2012) Secondary Sex Ratio in a South-Western Nigerian Town.

In fact, all countries of the world are faced with this global issue. These delays are usually considered as costly to all parties concerned in the projects and very often results in total abandonment thereby slowing down the growth of the construction sector. The purpose of this study was to assess the causative factors of delays and their effects on building construction projects in Osun. A total of forty two (42) project delay attributes and seventeen (17) effect attributes were identified through detailed literature review. Questionnaire survey were conducted across stakeholders that included among others; consultants, contractors and clients cutting across the building professionals namely; Architects, Builders, Quantity Surveyors, Estate Surveyors and Engineers to gather their views on causes of delay in delivery of projects. The research categorized the causes of delay under four main groups of client related, consultant related, contractor related and delay caused by incidental factors and their effects assessed using relative importance index (RII) as a basis for analysis.
