Historical Dynamics of Ọjị Ezinihitte Cultural Festival in Igboland, Nigeria
67 International Journal of Modern Anthropology Int. J. Mod. Anthrop. 2020. Vol. 2, Issue 13, pp: 67 - 98 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/ijma.v2i13.2 Available online at: www.ata.org.tn & https://www.ajol.info/index.php/ijma Research Article Historical dynamics of Ọjị Ezinihitte cultural festival in Igboland, Nigeria Akachi Odoemene Department of History and International Studies, Federal University Otuoke, Bayelsa State, Nigeria E-mail: [email protected] (Received 6 January 2020; Accepted 16 May 2020; Published 6 June 2020) Abstract - Ọjị (kola nut) is indispensable in traditional life of the Igbo of Nigeria. It plays an intrinsic role in almost all segments of the people‟s cultural life. In the Ọjị Ezinihitte festivity the „kola tradition‟ is meaningfully and elaborately celebrated. This article examines the importance of Ọjị within the context of Ezinihitte socio-cultural heritage, and equally accounts for continuity and change within it. An eclectic framework in data collection was utilized for this research. This involved the use of key-informant interviews, direct observation as well as extant textual sources (both published and un-published), including archival documents, for the purposes of the study. In terms of analysis, the study utilized the qualitative analytical approach. This was employed towards ensuring that the three basic purposes of this study – exploration, description and explanation – are well articulated and attained. The paper provided background for a proper understanding of the „sacred origin‟ of the Ọjị festive celebration. Through a vivid account of the festival‟s processes and rituals, it achieved a reconstruction of the festivity‟s origins and evolutionary trajectories and argues the festival as reflecting the people‟s spirit of fraternity and conviviality. -

Journal of American Science, 2011;7(2) http://www.americanscience.org Prevalence of fascioliasis among slaughter sheep in selected abattoirs in Imo State, Nigeria Njoku-Tony, R.F and Okoli, G.C Department of Environmental Technology, School of Engineering and Engineering Technology, Federal University of Technology, P.M.B. 1526 Owerri, Imo State, Nigeria. Corresponding author: Njoku-Tony, R.F, Email- [email protected] Abstract: A 12 months study on fascioliasis in sokoto gudali sheep of Hausa origin (northern part of Nigeria) was carried out in five different abattoirs in Imo State, Nigeria between 2004 and 2005.The abattoirs were Obinze, Okigwe, Afor-Enyiogugu, Afor-Ogbe, and Orlu .The objective of the study was to determine the prevalence of fascioliasis among slaughter sheep in selected abattoirs in Imo state. Five grams of feces and liver from freshly slaughtered sheep of both sexes, and from different locations and ages were collected, taken to the laboratory and analyzed for fasciola eggs and adult flukes. Direct smear, formol ether concentration and sodium chloride floatation methods were used to harvest the eggs and adult parasites. Out of 367 sheep examined, 64 (17.2%0) were infected. Infection was highest in Obinze abattoir (29.6%) followed by Afor Enyiogugu abattoir with (29.0%) Okigwe (15.6%), Orlu (12.5%) and Afor Ogbe (12.4%). Infection was highest in females than in males and was also sex dependent. Among adult sheep (>2yrs) examined , 59 (14.9%) were infected while out of 38 young goats (<2yrs), 5 (13.2%) were infected. Infection level rose with increased rainfall with the highest level observed at the peak of the rainy season and dropping during the dry season months. -

The study identified most of all the known rivers in Imo State and provided information like relief, topography and other geographical features of the major rivers which are crucial to aid water management for a sustainable water infrastructure in the communities of the watershed. The rivers and lakes are classified into five watersheds (river basins) such as Okigwe watershed, Mbaise / Mbano watershed, Orlu watershed, Oguta watershed and finally, Owerri watershed. The knowledge of the river basins in Imo State will help analyze the problems involved in water resources allocation and to provide guidance for the planning and management of water resources in the state for sustainable development. Keywords: Rivers; Basins/Watersheds; Water allocation; • What minimum reservoir capacity will be sufficient to assure Sustainability adequate water for irrigation or municipal water supply, during droughts? Introduction • How much quantity of water will become available at a reservoir An understanding of the hydrology of a region or state is paramount site, and when will it become available? In other words, what in the development of such region (state). -

International Journal of Advanced Academic Research | ISSN: 2488-9849 Vol. 7, Issue 3 (March, 2021) | www.ijaar.org Journal DOI: www.doi.org/10.46654/ij.24889849 Article DOI: www.doi.org/10.46654/ij.24889849.e7223 CHARACTERISTICS OF LEACHATE AT IHIAGWA DUMPSITE, IMO STATE NIGERIA AND THEIR IMPLICATIONS FOR SURFACE WATER POLLUTION Nelson-Kalu, C.T1; Amangabara, G.T1; Owuama, C.O.1, Nzeh, C.N and Uyo, C.N Department of Environmental Management, Federal University of Technology, Owerri. [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT Open dumpsite is the most common way to eliminate solid urban wastes in this part of the world. An important problem associated to landfills and open dumpsite is the production of leachates. The leachates from these dumpsites have many toxic substances, which may adversely affect the environmental health. Thus in order to have a better management of characteristics of Ihiagwa-Nekede waste dump leachates, representative leachate samples were collected and analyzed for Physico-chemical properties and levels of heavy metals in them. Results indicate pH7.38, temperature 28.30 ℃ - 28.40℃, total dissolved solid 124.01mg/l-125.45mg/l, magnesium hardness 4.40mg/l-7.32mg/l, sulphate 3.60mg/l- 3.70mg/l, and nitrate 27.00mg/l-27.60mg/l. Other parameters indicated as follows Conductivity1910휇푠/푐푚-1930.00 휇푠/푐푚, total chloride 891.72mg/l-891.74mg/l, carbonate 1708.00mg/l-1904.00mg/l, Ammonia 9.39mg/l-9.40mg/l, calcium hardness 373.17mg/l- 375.61mg/l, total solid 2423.00mg/l-2454.00mg/l, phosphate 13.52mg/l-13.54mg/l. -
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT of GAS FLARING on EBOCHA-EGBEMA, NIGER DELTA, NIGERIA *L. A. Nwaogu and G. O. C. Onyeze Department of Bioch
International Journal of Energy and Environmental Research Vol.8, No.1, pp.1-11, March 2020 Published by ECRTD-UK ISSN 2055-0197(Print), ISSN 2055-0200(Online) ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF GAS FLARING ON EBOCHA-EGBEMA, NIGER DELTA, NIGERIA *L. A. Nwaogu and G. O. C. Onyeze Department of Biochemistry, School of Biological Sciences Federal University of Technology, Owerri, Nigeria. *Corresponding Author’s emails:[email protected] ; [email protected] ABSTRACT: The impact of gas flaring on Ebocha-Egbema environment in the Niger Delta area of Nigeria was investigated. Mbutu Mbaise which has no oil-drilling or gas flaring site, was selected as the control environment. Concentrations of air quality indices: carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulphur dioxide (SO2), methane (CH4) and particulates were determined. Air quality measurements in Ebocha were made, at least, 500 meters from the flaring site. Values of important indices of soil physico-chemical parameters: pH, nitrate (NO3), sulphate (SO4) and percentage carbon were determined for the two environments. Water samples from the two environments were analysed for their physico-chemical parameters. Results obtained revealed that the mean values for air quality indices, soil and water physico-chemical parameters for Ebocha were substantially higher than those for Mbutu Mbaise except pH values obtained for soil and water, indicating that gas flaring exerts adverse ecological effect on the air, soil and water environments in Ebocha. KEYWORDS: air quality, environmental impact, gas flaring, physico-chemical, parameters. INTRODUCTION The threat to human, animal and plant life posed by pollution due to gas flaring cannot be over- emphasized. -
