    Pedestrians Analysis and Design for Taiwo Road Ilorin, Kwara State, Nigeria

    CARD International Journal of Engineering and Emerging Scientific Discovery ISSN: 2536-7250 (Print): 2536-7269 (Online) Volume 2, Number 4, December 2017 http://www.casirmediapublishing.com Pedestrians Analysis and Design for Taiwo Road Ilorin, Kwara State, Nigeria Braimoh O. S. & Gana A. J. Department of Civil Engineering College of Science and Engineering Landmark University Omu-Aran, Kwara State Email: [email protected], [email protected] Corresponding Author: Gana A. J. ABSTRACT Designing for pedestrians is a research work carried out as a result of the inadequate availability of pedestrian facilities resulting to increased accidents and other environmental and human hazards resulting from intermodal competitions for spaces vis-à-vis Highway capacity. This has helped to consider the possibility of pedestrian facilities for transportation in Taiwo road. The presence of pedestrian in Taiwo road has been investigated and found to be 538 per hour. In this research, Pedestrian facilities were designed for the Ibrahim Taiwo road in Ilorin city which is 3900m distance (from Taiwo salee junction to the end of the road at General Hospital roundabout).The design was done by carrying out pedestrian count on the Sidewalk and Crosswalk for the road in two hours for three days. The Sidewalk designed is 2.0m while the distance between the crosswalk markings is 0.6m and the thickness of the zebra crossing line is 0.6mat 3800m, 3200m 2150m, 650m and 200m from the origin of the road with 3m width, the Island height is 0.15m, the height of the signs above the ground is 2.0m and the Bus shelters are located at 3800m and 650m from the origin.

Department of Physics, University of Agriculture, PMB 2240, Abeokuta, [email protected] 1All correspondence should be directed to 2 above Abstract: A geophysical study using the Vertical Electrical Soundings (VES) techniques has been used to investigate the sub-surface layering in the southwestern part of the Niger Basin in order to determine the nature, characteristics and spatial extent of the components of the aquifer underlying the region. The results of the interpreted VES data suggest that the layering in the region range from three to five layers. The geologic sections derived from the analyzed geoelectric section suggest that the alluvial deposits of sand, sandy clay, medium to coarse sandstones, as well as the weathered and fractured basement constitute the aquifer found in this sedimentary region. Furthermore the results of the interpretation of the VES data indicate that the thickness values of the aquifer vary from 6.01 m to 58.60 m. The geoelectric section generated also suggest that the resistivity values of the aquifer components range from 4.2 Ω-m to 106.7 Ω- m for the alluvial deposits; 33.7 Ω-m to 108.6 Ω-m (weathered basement); and 345.7 Ω-m to 564.0 Ω-m for the fractured basement rocks.

    Implications of Community Infrastructure Provision in the Development of Medium-Sized Towns in Kwara State Nigeria Adedayo, A

    Ethiopian Journal of Environmental Studies and Management EJESM Vol. 5 no.4 (Suppl.2) 2012 IMPLICATIONS OF COMMUNITY INFRASTRUCTURE PROVISION IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF MEDIUM-SIZED TOWNS IN KWARA STATE NIGERIA ADEDAYO, A. and *AFOLAYAN, G.P. http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/ejesm.v5i4.S23 Received 20th September 2012; accepted 1st November 2012 Abstract Infrastructure has been recognized as the crux of human settlement development. This paper therefore examines the implications of community provision of infrastructure in the development of medium – sized towns in Nigeria. Medium-sized towns are settlements with population size of between 5,000 and 20,000. Data were collected from both primary and secondary sources. The findings generally revealed a high level of community participation in the provision of such infrastructure as schools, electricity, roads, water, market stalls, health facilities, and town halls. However, variations exist among the medium – sized towns in the type and number of infrastructure provided by community action. Kendall’s Coefficient Concordance (W) used to test the degree of variations in ranks revealed a significant agreement in the ranking. Hierarchical Cluster Analysis used to classify the medium – sized towns based on infrastructure provision produced three classes. The general implication of this study is that, infrastructure provision by community action can lead to a balanced regional development as other smaller towns around the study emulate the action. Recognizing the role of small – sized towns in a balanced regional development process, government should encourage the people through the provision of financial support, machineries and technical know-how in the provision of infrastructure. This paper recommends the integration of community development plans with those of the local government towards achieving even development.

    Kwara Annual School Census Report 2013

    ANNUAL SCHOOL CENSUS REPORT 2013-2014 State Ministry of Education and Human Capital Development Kwara State School Census Report 2013-2014 Preface The Y2013/2014 Annual School Census exercise began with sensitization meetings with Public Schools Education Managers and Private Schools Proprietors, which was followed by the update of school list (with support from NGOs), clustering of schools and selection of supervisors/enumerators. The State EMIS Committee then met to deliberate on the modality for the conduct of the exercise. This was followed by the training of supervisors and enumerators, and distribution of questionnaires with the technical and financial support by ESSPIN. The success of the previous census was manifest in its wide acceptance and use in planning, budgeting, monitoring/evaluation within the MDAs and as source of reference by other users. This year exercise which was conducted between 24th February to 7th March began with data collection that was monitored by D/PRSs across the MDAs and ESSPIN Team. Completed forms were returned and screened for face and content validity. Forms with errors or incomplete data were returned for corrections. The data entry officers were trained in four LGA EMIS nodes, spread across the State, where data entry took place. Data cleansing and analysis took place at the State central EMIS in the State Ministry of Education and Human Capital Development. There was a great improvement in data quality and slight improvement in private schools participation as a result of the sensitization engagement with the stakeholders. The LGEA EMIS nodes were strengthened and grassroots commitment enhanced with the data entry that took place at the four centres.

    The Conflicting Linguistic and Ethnic Identities of the Fulani People of Ilorin

    International Journal of Language and Linguistics Vol. 5, No. 1, March 2018 Language against Ethnicity: The Conflicting Linguistic and Ethnic Identities of the Fulani People of Ilorin Yeseera Omonike Oloso Kwara State University, Malete Nigeria Language against ethnicity the conflicting linguistic and ethnic identities of the Fulani people of Ilorin Ilorin’s status as a border community straddling Nigeria’s Northern and South-western regions where different languages and ethnicities co-exist makes identity construction complex. Existing literature largely posit an inseparable link between language and ethnic identity implying that language loss constitutes identity loss. This study investigates the relationship between linguistic and ethnic identities among the Fulani people of Ilorin with a view to evaluating the link. Revised Social and Ethnolinguistic Identity Theory was adopted. Structured interviews were conducted with 40 respondents while participant observation was employed. Linguistic identity was established in favour of the Yoruba Language contrariwise for the Yoruba ethnic identity. The majority of respondents (95.0%) identified Yoruba as their first language while respondents’ construction of their ethnic identities was largely influenced by their ancestral ethnicity. Seventy-five percent claimed sole Fulani ethnic identity; 5.0% claimed hybrid identity while 20.0% have become ethnic converts who claim either a civic or Yoruba identity. Keywords: Language shift, Allegiance, Ethnic converts, Revised ELIT. 1 Introduction This article examines the mosaic patterns of language and identity construction among the Fulani people of Ilorin. It shows how an overwhelming shift from Fulfulde, a minority language of Kwara State, did not translate into an equivalent shift of identity by its native speakers.

    Regressive Democracy: the Monstrous Role of Godfatherism in Nigeria

    International Journal of Politics and Good Governance Volume VI, No. 6.2 Quarter II 2015 ISSN: 0976 – 1195 REGRESSIVE DEMOCRACY: THE MONSTROUS ROLE OF GODFATHERISM IN NIGERIA Francis Osadebamwen Osayi University of Benin, Benin City, Nigeria ABSTARCT Godfatherism has become an attribute of modern day Nigeria democracy. With the gradual institutionalization of democracy, godfatherism has taken its toll in the politics of the country, thereby causing disaffection, disharmony, disunity and conflict among various political and interest groups. Its lethargic impact has further heightened political passivism and aparthism, thus retarding Nigeria’s democratic process. Apart from being a game of power play and rivalry, it often engenders political acrimony which tends to divest the people of democratic dividends. Consequently, such features as stagnated development, wanton destruction of lives and property becomes predominant. Nigeria has consistently been rated as one of the most corrupt nations on earth. This corrupt tendency propelled by greed has resulted in Nigerians seeing government as a vehicle for primitive accumulation and self aggrandizement. With these attendant problems associated with politics of godfatherism, Nigeria’s socio-economic structure tends to encourage it. However, the third and fourth dispensations (2007-2014) of this fourth republic have witnessed tremendous change in role from ‘do or die’ style of godfatherism to that of intra party politics. It is this change pattern that necessitated this study. Key Words: Democracy, Godfatherism, Paternalism, Political Conflict, Personal Interest, Clientelism Introduction It is an undeniable fact in Nigeria history that godfatherism has been a major setback in the country’s democratic experience. The drawbacks, political passivism and aparthism witnessed across Nigeria today are traceable largely to the activities of godfatherism in the 1 International Journal of Politics and Good Governance Volume VI, No.
