  • Nigeria Last Updated: May 6, 2016
    Country Analysis Brief: Nigeria Last Updated: May 6, 2016 Overview Nigeria is currently the largest oil producer in Africa and was the world's fourth-largest exporter of LNG in 2015. Nigeria’s oil production is hampered by instability and supply disruptions, while its natural gas sector is restricted by the lack of infrastructure to commercialize natural gas that is currently flared (burned off). Nigeria is the largest oil producer in Africa, holds the largest natural gas reserves on the continent, and was the world’s fourth-largest exporter of liquefied natural gas (LNG) in 2015.1 Nigeria became a member of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) in 1971, more than a decade after oil production began in the oil-rich Bayelsa State in the 1950s.2 Although Nigeria is the leading oil producer in Africa, production is affected by sporadic supply disruptions, which have resulted in unplanned outages of up to 500,000 barrels per day (b/d). Figure 1: Map of Nigeria Source: U.S. Department of State 1 Nigeria’s oil and natural gas industry is primarily located in the southern Niger Delta area, where it has been a source of conflict. Local groups seeking a share of the wealth often attack the oil infrastructure, forcing companies to declare force majeure on oil shipments (a legal clause that allows a party to not satisfy contractual agreements because of circumstances beyond their control). At the same time, oil theft leads to pipeline damage that is often severe, causing loss of production, pollution, and forcing companies to shut in production.

Olu Oylnlade and Jeffery M. VIncent CULTURAL OVERVIEW The People The Ogoni are a minority ethnic people who live in the Western Niger Delta Region of southern Nigeria. During the 1970s, Ogoniland, or the Ogoni Nation, became part of the Rivers State of Nigeria. There are ap­ proximately 500,000 Ogoni who represent less than 0.05 percent of Ni­ geria's 100 to 120 million people. The population density of this region equals 1,233 people per square mile, making it one of the most densely populated areas of Nigeria. Reliable information about the origin of the Ogoni is limited. Archaeo­ logical and oral historical evidence suggests that the Ogoni have inhabited the area for over 500 years. Presently, two theories exist about the origin of this people.

  • 61 Traditional Settlement of Dispute Amongst Ikwerre Ethnic Nationality in Rivers State, Nigeria: an Appraisal

This system of resolving disputes has been the African traditional way of resolving conflicts in Nigeria, the sub-saharan societies and the entire Africa before the advent of European colonialism. The system therefore is a time tested exercise with many variations as one moves from one linguistic locality to another. Nevertheless, we are going to examine the practice as it is done by the Ikwerre ethnic nationality in Rivers State. Ikwerre ethnic nationality is the most populous ethnic nationality in Rivers State and from where the current Governor, Chibuike Amechi hails.

  • Assessment of Physicochemical Parameters in Nta-Wogba Stream in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, Nigeria
    Available online www.jsaer.com Journal of Scientific and Engineering Research, 2020, 7(8):124-132 ISSN: 2394-2630 Research Article CODEN(USA): JSERBR Assessment of Physicochemical Parameters in Nta-Wogba Stream in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, Nigeria Kpee, Friday; Edori, Onisogen Simeon; Nwokanma, Victor Chinenye Department of Chemistry, Ignatius Ajuru University of Education, Rumuolumeni, P.M. B. 5047 Port Harcourt, Rivers State E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Physicochemical parameters concentration reveals the physical and chemical states of a water body. Water samples were collected from Nta-Wogba stream in Port Harcourt metropolis and analyzed for physicochemical parameters. This was done in order to assess the portability of the stream water for use. Some physicochemical parameters such as pH, electrical conductivity (EC), salinity, phosphate, turbidity, sulphate, biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5), chemical oxygen demand (COD), dissolved oxygen (DO), chlorine, total dissolved solids (TDS) and total suspended solids (TSS) were analyzed in the month of August and November, using appropriate techniques. The mean values of the results were: pH (6.40±0.09), EC (1406.67±80.09 µS/cm), salinity (359.33±17.58 mg/L), Chlorides (219.03±10.11mg/L), nitrates (5.51±0.38mg/L), BOD (35.42±3.55mg/L), COD (48.00±1.63mg/L), DO (4.01±0.44mg/L), phosphate (0.90±0.03mg/L), Sulphate (158.50±2.50mg/L), turbidity (69.27±9.27 NTU), TDS (585.75±229.74mg/L) and TSS (37.78±4.61 mg/Lmg/L). The results obtained showed that pH, TDS, TSS phosphate, nitrate, COD and sulphate were within DPR and WHO permissible limits, while EC, turbidity, BOD5 and DO were not within the permissible limits of DPR and WHO.

  • The Andoni People of Rivers State
    The Andoni people of Rivers State, of Nigeria, are considered to be an Ijaw tribe by some, a distinct ethnolinguistic group by others, and a people closely related to the Annang, Igbo, Ibibio and Efik people of Akwa Ibom State and Cross River State in Nigeria. Like these people, the Andoni people refer to God as Awaji or Owaji.[1] Historically, the Andoni (Idoni or Indo) Is the first son among the many sons of Ijo (Ujo) heir to the throne of Oduduwa (Adumu) of Ile-Ife before the colonial era and had commercial contacts with European traders and with neighboring Ijaw clans, such as the Bonny, Okrika, Kalabari, and Nkoro. The Andoni frequently fought wars with the Kingdom of Bonny. The Andoni people speak Obolo as the only native language. Obolo language is a combination of words from Igbo, Efik, Ibibio, Annang, Okrika, Ijaw, and Nembe [2] . There is a historical link between the Okrika and the Andoni people. The Andoni people are the fiercest warriors in the Niger Delta, they have fought many wars with the Ogonis yet they are the best of friends. The Andoni (Obolo) clan of Ijaw is very wide with Ohafia and Aro (Arochukwu) people in Igbo land, Eastern Obolo, Ibeno-Eket and Oron in Akwa Ibom states and Andoni, Kala-Ido and Ogoloma in Rivers State. The Andoni people are very cultural, among the key towns are Ngo (Gogo), Ebukuma, Ikuru (Ikwut), Ataba, Ekede, Agwut-Obolo, Okoromboko, Okoroete, Iko, (Eastern Obolo axis), Asarama, Unyeada, Dema and Ilotombi. The Nwantam masquerade of Andoni celebrated every first January is one of the highlights of Obolo festivities, which they share with the Opobo, Nkoro, Bonny and Ndoki Ijaws.

  • International Journal of Contemporary Research and Review Assessment of Corrosion of Mild Steel Buried in Soils of the Niger
    International Journal of Contemporary Research and Review Available Online at: www.ijcrr.info ISSN: 0976-4852 Volume 11|Issue 01, January, 2020| Assessment of Corrosion of Mild Steel Corresponding Author: Buried In Soils of the Niger Delta, Nigeria G.C. ONWUGBUTA Received: 2019-12-20 1G.C. ONWUGBUTA 2G.N. JOHN Accepted 2020-01-18 Publish Online 2020-01-21 1 Department of Biochemistry/Chemistry Technology, 2 School of Science Laboratory Technology, University of Port Harcourt DOI: https://doi.org/10.15520/ijcrr.v11i01.780 Abstract: This study determines the corrosion rate and percent weight loss of mild steel buried in soils of the Niger Delta Area of Nigeria. Six geologic zones representing the upland and wetland soils were used for the assessment. The corrosion rates of mild steel in these soils were monitored to assess the extent of corrosion. However, the upland soils (Odagwa, Ogoni, Ahoada and Omoku) were more resistant to corrosion than the wetland (Kaiama and Elebele) soils. The corrosion rate of mild steel at the 24th month was in the following order of corrosivity: Elebele > Kaiama > Omoku > Ahoada > Ogoni > Odagwa. The percent weight loss was higher at the 24th month, with the highest values found at the Meander Belt Deposits of Elebele. Alternately, the Coastal Plain Sands were found to have the least percent weight loss with the lowest value recorded at Odagwa site at the 24th month. The percent weight loss at the 24th month is in the following order: Elebele > Omoku > Kaiama > Ahoada > Ogoni > Odagwa. The variation in corrosion rate and weight loss of mild steel buried in the different soil types is caused by the aquic moisture regime of the soils, anthropogenic activities carried out, microorganisms present in the soils, and also, the physico-chemical properties of the soils.

A total of 80 genetic soil samples from 16 soil profiles and one hundred and twenty (120) random surface samples taken from farm plots along eight (8) transects in the area were studied. The ranking of the eight transects in a descending order was: Akabuka/Obite > Umuoru/Ndoni > Omoku/Egbegoro > Obagi/Ogbogu > Obiafu > Aggah/Egbema > Ebocha/Okwuzi > Omoku/Elele. From the results obtained the top three ranked transects: Akabuka/Obite, Umuoru/Ndoni and Omoku/Egbegoro were rated 59.0, 52.0 and 42.7% respectively of the various parameters qualifying for high fertility indices while the three transects with lowest quality (Aggah/Egbema, Ebocha/Okwuzi and Omoku/Elele) had only 28.8, 22.7 and 21.0% respectively of sample stations that qualified them for high soil quality status. Five soil properties: drainage, depth, total organic matter, soil colour and texture, were delineated as the minimum data set needed for soil quality determination in the area. Most of the fertility indices were below critical limits as expressed by low ECEC, low organic matter and low available P.
