  • Jalabi Practice: a Critical Appraisal of a Socio-Religious Phenomenon in Yorubaland, Nigeria
    ISSN 2411-9563 (Print) European Journal of Social Sciences September-December 2015 ISSN 2312-8429 (Online) Education and Research Volume 2, Issue 4 Jalabi Practice: a Critical Appraisal of a Socio-Religious Phenomenon in Yorubaland, Nigeria Dr. Afiz Oladimeji Musa [email protected] International Islamic University Malaysia Prof. Dr. Hassan Ahmad Ibrahim [email protected] International Islamic University Malaysia Abstract Jalabi is an extant historical phenomenon with strong socio-religious impacts in Yorubaland, south-western part of Nigeria. It is among the preparatory Dawah strategies devised by the Yoruba Ulama following the general mainstream Africa to condition the minds of the indigenous people for the acceptance of Islam. This strategy is reflected in certain socio-religious services rendered to the clients, which include, but not limited to, spiritual consultation and healing, such as petitionary Dua (prayer), divination through sand-cutting, rosary selection, charm-making, and an act of officiating at various religious functions. In view of its historicity, the framework of this research paper revolves around three stages identified to have been aligned with the evolution of Jalabi, viz. Dawah, which marked its initial stage, livelihood into which it had evolved over the course of time, and which, in turn, had predisposed it to the third stage, namely syncretism. Triangulation method will be adopted for qualitative data collection, such as interviews, personal observation, and classified manuscript collections, and will be interpretively and critically analyzed to enhance the veracity of the research findings. The orality of the Yoruba culture has greatly influenced the researcher’s decision to seek data beyond the written words in order to give this long-standing phenomenon its due of study and to help understand the many dimensions it has assumed over time, as well as its both positive and adverse effects on the socio-religious live of the Yoruba people of Nigeria.

  • Analysis of Management Practices in Lagos State Tertiary Institutions Through Total Quality Management Structural Framework
    Journal of Education and Practice www.iiste.org ISSN 2222-1735 (Paper) ISSN 2222-288X (Online) Vol.7, No.8, 2016 Analysis of Management Practices in Lagos State Tertiary Institutions through Total Quality Management Structural Framework Abbas Tunde AbdulAzeez Faculty of Education, Lagos State University Ojo Campus, Ojo, Lagos State, Nigeria Abstract This research investigated total quality management practices and quality teacher education in public tertiary institutions in Lagos State. The study was therefore designed to analyse management practices in Lagos state tertiary institutions through total quality management structural framework. The selected public tertiary institutions in Lagos State were Lagos State University (LASU) Ojo, University of Lagos (UNILAG) Akoka, Michael Otedola College of Primary Education (MOCOPED) Inaforija, Epe, Federal College of Education Technical (FCET)Akoka, and Adeniran Ogunsanya College of Education (AOCOED) Oto-Ijanikin. A descriptive survey research design was adopted. A Total Quality Management practices and Quality Teacher Education Questionnaire (TQMP-QTEQ) was used to obtain data for the study. The structured questionnaire was administered on 905 academic and non-academic staff members and final year students of sampled institutions using purposive sampling technique. The questionnaire was content-validated using expert opinion method and Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) statistics of sampling adequacy. In terms of the measure of reliability, the Cronbach’s Alpha values for the two major constructs of the study are satisfactory – quality teacher education (0.838) and TQM (0.879). Their Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) statistics of sampling adequacy were equally above the acceptable standard of 0.7. The hypotheses were tested at the 5 percent level of significance.

    Nigeria DATA USE BRIEF Improving Initiation of Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis among Key Populations in Akwa Ibom, Cross River, and Lagos States INTRODUCTION Key populations (KP), such as sex workers and men who have sex with men, have the highest HIV prevalence in Nigeria.1 To reduce the HIV infection rate, Nigeria’s HIV program integrated the use of oral pre-exposure prophylaxis2 (PrEP) as a substantive additional measure to existing services for KP. The USAID-funded KP CARE-1 project, implemented by Heartland Alliance Nigeria, established KP one-stop shops (KP OSS) to provide oral PrEP to KPs in three states—Akwa Ibom, Cross River, and Lagos. Each KP one-stop shop was provided with yearly targets for A staffer at a community one-stop shop for key populations distribution of oral PrEP.

HOW DATA.FI SUPPORTED THE PREP DATA REVIEW AND USE PROCESS Data.FI collated, validated, and analyzed weekly high-frequency report (HFR) data on the PrEP indicator to assess the achievement of FY20 targets against performance. The results of these weekly HFR analyses were disseminated to Heartland Alliance and discussed during Enhanced Site Management (ESM) cluster meetings supported by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). During these meetings, Data.FI facilitated discussion among all USAID implementing partners (IPs) to review performance, identify gaps, and institute cause-corrective measures.

  • Effect of Accommodation Pressure on Housing Affordability in Ikeja, Lagos, Nigeria
    FUTY Journal of the Environment Vol. 11 No. 1 November, 2017 Effect of Accommodation Pressure on Housing Affordability in Ikeja, Lagos, Nigeria Enisan, G. Department of Urban and Regional Planning, Federal University of Technology, Akure, Ondo State, Nigeria Correspondence mail: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract This study analyzed the effect of accommodation pressure on housing affordability in Ikeja, Lagos State. Data used for this study were obtained from both primary and secondary source. 10 wards were covered for this research and a total number of 180 questionnaires were administered in the study area using the housing stock of each ward. These questionnaires were used to obtain information on level of housing satisfaction and perception of housing affordability and effect of accommodation pressure from respondents in the study area. The study was sub-divided into four sectors to ensure accurate description of the area. Descriptive statistics were used to present independent variables in the data set. Frequency distribution was used to assess the socio-economic characteristics of the respondents and related data to determine the nature of housing affordability among various respondents in the study area. The study revealed that income, household size, occupation, education, housing finance and family expenses are the key determinants to secure convenient, satisfactory and affordable housing in the study area. The government’s inability to tackle these factors in an appropriate manner has rendered many people inability to live in satisfactory, convenient and affordable apartments. However, it is important that the government get involved in the provision of mortgage facilities as one of the recommendations in solving housing problem in Nigeria.
