It is argued that ethnicity is not necessarily incompatible with nationalism and nation-building. Ethnicity and nationalism both play a role in nation-state formation. They are each functional to political stability and, therefore, to civil peace and to the ability of individual Nigerians to pursue their non-political goals. Ethnicity is functional to political stability because it provides the basis for political socialization and for popular allegiance to political actors. It provides the framework within which patronage is institutionalized and related to traditional forms of welfare within a state which is itself unable to provide such benefits to its subjects.

Corresponding Author: [email protected] ABSTRACT Pollutant standards indices (PSI) were computed for each study area to indicate the concentration level of each pollutant in the study area, while air quality indices were computed to show the degree of air pollution effects on human health in Port Harcourt and its environs. The Air Quality index (AQI) revealed the health effects on people in the respective study area may be experienced. Results of AQI indicated that Eleme, Obio/Akpor and Port Harcourt are most polluted areas compared to Oyigbo, Ikwerre Local Government Area (LGA) and Etche in the dry season. Keywords: Pollutant Standard Index, Air Quality Index, Dry Season, Criteria Air Pollutants. 1. INTRODUCTION Generally, the study revealed that Eleme, Obio/Akpor and Port Harcourt areas are exposed to high pollutants concentrations, especially sulphur dioxide, methane, nitrogen dioxide and particulate matter, which may adversely affect public health or aggravate the health conditions of the exposed population (Chelana, et al., 2002; Longhurst, 2005; Efe, 2006; and Antai et al., 2016).

Department of Geography and Environmental Studies Faculty of Social Sciences Ignatius Ajuru University of Education Rumuolumeni, P.M.B 5047 Port Harcourt [email protected] UKPERE, DENNIS T.R. PhD. Department of Geography and Environmental Studies Faculty of Social Sciences Ignatius Ajuru University of Education Rumuolumeni, P.M.B 5047 Port Harcourt [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper examined the relevance of trees for the promotion of Port Harcourt ecosystem. The paper argued that Port Harcourt as a major urban centre in Nigeria is growing in size and complexity. As a major industrial and commercial city, it is presently experiencing an increase in air and noise pollution. This pollution is a function of two primary factors: increase in the use of fossil fuel by the rapid growth in automobiles and industrial domestic power plants (generators) and growing affluence in the life style of city residents. Thus, there is correspondent increase in traffic, noise and emission of C02 (carbon dioxide) and Co (carbon monoxide). As a result of this, air pollution over Port Harcourt had reached a critical stage and efforts must be made to combat this environmental challenge. The cheapest and clearest way of addressing this problem is by massive planting of trees across the length and breadth of the city.
