A total of 1,272 adult guinea fowls: 425 pearl, 313 lavender, 271 black and 263 white varieties sourced from smallholders in Sokoto, Balle, Bodinga, Shagari, Goronyo, and Illela villages in Sokoto State, Nigeria were used for the study. Data on body weight (BW), head thickness (HT), helmet length (HL), helmet width (HW), wattle length (WL), wattle width (WW), keel length (KL), body circumference (BC), shank length (SL), shank thickness (ST), drumstick length (DL), thigh length (TL) and wing length (WGL) were collected and analyzed using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) procedure and cluster analysis. The PCA showed extraction of three patterns of variation in lavender, two in each of pearl and black and one in white variety. In lavender, the first principal component explained 61.16% of the generalized variance; in pearl, the first principal component explained 73.38% of the generalized variance; in black, the first principal component explained 67.09% of the generalized variance while the only PCA extracted for the white variety explained 84.48% of the generalized variance.

  • Sokoto Research Brief
    Research Brief: Highlights from Formative Research with First-Time Young Parents in Sokoto State, North West Nigeria December 2018 www.mcsprogram.org Background Figure 1: In Sokoto State, girls marry before the age of 15 on average, but delay the first birth for a few years after marriage. In Sokoto State, in North West Nigeria, young people experience major life transitions in rapid succession (Figure 1). By the age of 19, 56.3% of girls in Sokoto will have begun childbearing.1 During this critical period, adolescents, and girls in particular, are at a disadvantage due to limited social support and knowledge about reproductive, maternal, newborn, and child health (RMNCH). In addition, these girls often have poor nutrition, limited resources, and few financial opportunities. Adolescent girls are less likely to use essential health care than are older women. In Nigeria, 46% of mothers under 20 years received no antenatal care and only 26% delivered with a skilled provider, compared with 34% and 40% of women aged 15–49, respectively. Further, adolescents have lower knowledge and use of contraceptives than older women; while 10% of all married/in-union women use a modern method of contraception, just 1% of married/in-union adolescent girls do.1 There is a clear need for interventions to increase the uptake of health care among pregnant and parenting young people to influence better health outcomes. Use of care will also promote healthy spacing of future pregnancies by providing knowledge about and access to family planning. However, there are few evidence-based models/practices for reaching first- time young parents (FTYPs).

  • Trends in Cross-Border Mobility of Pastoralists and Its Implications on the Farmer-Herder Conflicts
    TRENDS IN CROSS-BORDER MOBILITY OF PASTORALISTS AND ITS IMPLICATIONS ON THE FARMER-HERDER CONFLICTS Odunaiya Samson Kebbi State University of Science and Technology Aliero 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Communities in Sokoto have experienced violence between farmers and pastoralists. The latter are divided into sedentary pastoralists, who are Nigerians and mostly herd in communities in Sokoto, and migratory pastoralists, who are transhumant herders migrating into Nigeria through the Sokoto-Niger Republic border in Tangaza local government area and other bordering communities. The destinations of migratory pastoralists in Nigeria have remained the same to this very day; however, there has been a change in the routes and migratory patterns. The alteration of the historical migratory trends and patterns can be attributed to encroachment of grazing routes by farmers, which have caused pastoralists to neglect grazing and seek alternative routes. Hence, roads and farmlands are used for passage. In addition, security challenges in Zamfara state, cattle rustling, superstitious traditional beliefs, unlawful allocation of grazing reserves by politicians for farming, and nighttime herding are other factors that have caused the change in migration patterns. The population of pastoralists migrating into Nigeria has increased significantly when compared to that of the past. This can be attributed to the increase in the population of pastoralists and livestock, and desertification in the Sahel which is forcing more pastoralists into Nigeria. Though the relationship between migratory pastoralists and farmers has been hostile in nature, the same cannot be said of the relationship between sedentary and migratory pastoralists, which has been peaceful and mutual. The continuous dispute caused by changes in migratory trends have tended to spark cycles of reprisal attacks and can cause regional tensions with the bordering country of Niger Republic.

Received 10 December, 2019; Accepted 25 February, 2020 Sokoto State is one of the states in Nigeria that are prone to desertification. This study attempts to identify and delimit areas affected by desertification in the three northernmost Local Government Areas of Sokoto State, namely: Illela, Gada and Tangaza. Field study was carried out to verify the incident and occurrence of desertification and the menace of sand deposition. A simple random sampling method with questionnaire, combined with Focused Group Discussions and Key Informant Interviews was used to derive the local knowledge about sand transport and deposition, and, its socio-environmental impacts. The Digital Elevation Model of Tangaza, Gada, and Illela Local Government Areas for the year 2008 and 2014 were derived from ASTER images. The result indicated that the Gidan Kaura hill grew by about 30 m within the six-year period. This agreed with an overwhelming belief by 95% of the respondents that the area continues to suffer from sandstorms and sand deposition.
