Rural Non-Farm Income and Inequality in Nigeria
2. BACKGROUND INFORMATION, DATA AND SURVEY AREA The utilized data were collected from five different villages surveyed in rural Northern Nigeria between 2004 and 2005. These villages are situated within the Hadejia-Nguru floodplain wetlands of Jigawa state in Northern Nigeria. Data were collected from 200 households selected using a multi-stage stratified random sampling approach. The first sampling stratum was selection of the dry savanna region of northern Nigeria, which comprises six states: Sokoto, Kebbi, Zamfara, Kano, Kaduna and Jigawa. The second stratum was the selection of Jigawa state. Two important elements informed this choice. First, Jigawa state, which was carved out of Kano state in August 1991, has the highest rural population in Nigeria; about 93 percent of the state’s population dwells in rural areas3. Second, agriculture is the dominant sector of the state’s economy, providing employment for over 90 percent of the active labor force. For effective grassroots coverage of the various agricultural activities in Jigawa state, the Jigawa Agricultural and Rural Development (JARDA) is divided into four operational zones that are headquartered in the cities of Birni Kudu, Gumel, Hadejia and Kazaure. Hadejia was selected for this study, forming the third stratum of sampling. Within the Hadejia emirate, there are eight Local Government Areas (LGAs): Auyo, Birniwa, Hadejia, Kaffin-Hausa, Mallam Madori, Kaugama, Kirikasamma and Guri. Kirikasamma LGA was selected for this study, representing the fourth sampling stratum. Kirikassama LGA was specifically chosen because of the area’s intensive economic development and correspondingly higher human population compared to many other parts of Nigeria. In the fifth stratum of sampling, five villages were selected from Kirikassama LGA: Jiyan, Likori, Matarar Galadima, Turabu and Madachi. -

International Journal on New Trends in Education and Their Implications April, May, June 2011 Volume: 2 Issue: 2 Article: 4 ISSN 1309-6249 UNIVERSAL BASIC EDUCATION (UBE) POLICY IMPLEMENTATION IN FACILITIES PROVISION: Ogun State as a Case Study Prof. Dr. Kayode AJAYI Dr. Muyiwa ADEYEMI Faculty of Education Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ago-Iwoye, NIGERIA ABSTRACT The Universal Basic Education Programme (UBE) which encompasses primary and junior secondary education for all children (covering the first nine years of schooling), nomadic education and literacy and non-formal education in Nigeria have adopted the “collaborative/partnership approach”. In Ogun State, the UBE Act was passed into law in 2005 after that of the Federal government in 2004, hence, the demonstration of the intention to make the UBE free, compulsory and universal. The aspects of the policy which is capital intensive require the government to provide adequately for basic education in the area of organization, funding, staff development, facilities, among others. With the commencement of the scheme in 1999/2000 until-date, Ogun State, especially in the area of facility provision, has joined in the collaborative effort with the Federal government through counter-part funding to provide some facilities to schools in the State, especially at the Primary level. These facilities include textbooks (in core subjects’ areas- Mathematics, English, Social Studies and Primary Science), blocks of classrooms, furniture, laboratories/library, teachers, etc. This study attempts to assess the level of articulation by the Ogun State Government of its UBE policy within the general framework of the scheme in providing facilities to schools at the primary level. -

ISSN(Online): 2319-8753 ISSN (Print): 2347-6710 International Journal of Innovative Research in Science, Engineering and Technology (A High Impact Factor, Monthly, Peer Reviewed Journal) Visit: www.ijirset.com Vol. 7, Issue 7, July 2018 Structural Interpretation of Northern Sokoto Basin, Using Airborne Magnetic Data Ibe Stephen O.1, Uche Iduma2 Senior Lecturer, Department of Physics, Federal University Otuoke, Bayelsa State, Nigeria1 Geophysicist, Nigerian Geological Survey Agency Abuja, Nigeria 2 ABSTRACT: Analysis of high resolution aeromagnetic data was carried out to evaluate the structural complexity of Sokoto Basin, Northern Nigeria. The total magnetic intensity data covering the basin were processed and filtered using First vertical derivative (FVD) and Horizontal gradient (HG) filters. The FVD and HG were computed to enhance faults, fractures and folds. Ten major fault systems were defined trending majorly in the NE-SW direction with minor NW-SE trends. The lineament of the area was extracted and plotted to define the major trends of both major and minor structures. The lineament map and corresponding rose plot show a dominate NE-SW trend with minor NW-SE, EW and NS structures within the study area. The structural complexity was computed using the lineament map. The lineament density map shows that the eastern part of Gwadebawa, Jiga Birne, Jega, Wamako, Sokoto, Raka, Gayawa, Manu, Giden Madi, Matona, Talata Mafara, Moriki, Gada, Dakko and Baban Baki are intensely deformed. Kuka, Birnin Kebbi, Kaingwa, Binji, Satuka, Tureta, Rabah, Isa, Sabon Birni and eastern part of Raka are moderately deformed; and Satuka, Arbkwe, Bui, Kuka, Botawa, Binji, Sabon Birni, southern part of Tureta and eastern part of Manu are less deformation. -

The operational area continues to be impacted by the ongoing violent conflict, terrorism, and criminal activities, which have resulted in the displacement, killing and abduction of civilians as well as the destruction of properties and critical infrastructure. The second wave of COVID-19 also continues to exacerbate the already worsening situation. A total of 43 security incidents perpetrated by NSAG in the BAY States comprised of attacks on civilians, improvised explosive devices, and attacks on security forces. ■ In Borno State, members of the non-State armed groups (NSAGs) continued their attacks on both civilian and military targets, attempted to overrun of villages and towns and mounted illegal vehicle checkpoints for the purpose of abduction, looting and robbery. The main supply routes Maiduguri- Gubio, Maiduguri-Mafa and Mungono-Ngala in the Northern axis were most severely hit. The situation along the Maiduguri-Damaturu road, a main supply route, worsened further in January, forcing the reclassification of the route from the hitherto “Restricted” to “No go” for humanitarian staff and cargo. -

DOI : https://dx.doi.org/10.26808/rs.st.i8v3.02 International Journal of Advanced Scientific and Technical Research Issue 8 volume 3 May-June 2018 Available online on http://www.rspublication.com/ijst/index.html ISSN 2249-9954 Characteristics of Concrete made with Gravel from Selected Mining Sites in Osun State, South-Western. Nigeria 1J.A Ige and 2S.O. Ajamu 1,2Department of Civil Engineering, Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Ogbomoso Correspondence e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Granite is an essential constituent material in concrete production as its inadequate quantity has led to massive application of gravel in construction works. Locally sourced gravels are characterized with impurities which affect the quality of the concrete. Therefore, this study investigated the quality of locally-sourced gravel across Osun State. Gravel samples were obtained from the borrowed pits across the three Senatorial Districts viz Osun West (OSW); Osun Central (OSC); and Osun East (OSE) of the State. The locations are: OSW [Irewole (IRW: 07030’N 04020’E), Egbedore (EGBE: 07040’N 04030’E), Ede North (EDE: 07040’N 04030’E)]; OSC [Ifelodun (IFD: 07055’N 04041’E), Osogbo (OSO: 7046’N 4034’E), Olorunda (OLO: 7046’N 4034’E)] ; and OSE [Ilesa West (ILS: 700N 500E), Ife Central (IFE: 70050’N 4069’E), Ife East (IFEE: 70050’N 4069’E)]. Physical examination in accordance with BS 882, Aggregate Crushing Value (ACV) test, and sieve analysis were carried out on the gravel samples. Concrete cubes were cast, subjected to Slump, Compressive strength and compared with BS 812 Standard. Physical examination shows samples having dry, dark, and brownish gravelly irregular shapes for OSW and OSC while they were predominantly reddish, gravelly irregular shapes for OSE.
