The purposes of the trip were: (1) to discuss future plans for in-service training of family planning service providers in Kwara State; (2) to observe members of the Kwara State Training Team as they conducted a clinical service delivery skills workshop; and (3) to discuss with Ministry of Health officials the inclusion of two Kwara State Trainers on the training team for the INTRAH-sponsored Lagos State Ministry of Health Family Planning/Oral Rehydration Therapy/Community Health Education Training project to commence January 1987. Discussions were held with Mr. Saka Saadu, Permanent Secretary of Health; Dr. David Olubaniyi, Director of Health Services and Project Director; Mrs. Florence Tolushe, Family Planning Coordinator; and members of the training team: Mrs. Rachel Ajiboye, Mrs. Victoria Abodunrin, and Mrs. Grace Osunaiye. Present status and future plans for expansion of child spacing activities and plans for in-service training in Kwara State were reviewed. The Ministry of Health operates 70 health facilities which will all have at least two trained family planning service providers by the end of 1988. Fifty-three of these facilities currently offer family planning services and are staffed by one or two trained clinicians. In addition, it is anticipated that 90 Local Government Area facilities throughout the state will offer family planning services by the end of 1988. All health personnel will have been trained by members of the Kwara State Training Team. Three members of the State Training Team were observed as they conducted their fifth Family Planning/Oral Rehydration Therapy workshop. By the end of 1986 the team will have trained 87 nurse midwives in family planning -ii­ clinical skills and 21 community health assistants in family planning community health education and motivation. All training to date has been supported with funds from the Ministry of Health/INTRAH contract. The Ministry of Health is prepared to support fifty percent of the training costs over the next two years and is seeking support from other donors for the balance. Mr. Saadu agreed to release two Kwara State Trainers who will co-train in the Lagos State MOH FP/ORT/CHE training project. A need for training supervisors and community health educators and motivators was identified. Major recommendations include that INTRAH should provide support and technical assistance to the MOH for a Management and Supervision workshop for zonal supervision and a Community Health Education workshop for the community health aides. -iii- SCHEDULE OF ACTIVITIES Monday Arrived in Ilorin.

F) Received verbal agreement from the Permanent Secretary and Director of Health Services for the participation -2­ of two members of the Kwara State Training Team as co­ trainers in the Lagos State MOH/INTRAH FP/ORT/CHE training project. III. BACKGROUND This was the eighth INTRAH visit to Kwara State. A needs assessment and project development visit was conducted in November 1984 (Trip Report #0-06); a sub contract was developed with the Ministry of Health in January 1985 (Trip Report #0-18) A series of 5 training activities designed to develop institutional capabilities of the MOH to provide family pl&nning in-service training was completed in May 1986. These activities were as follows: TRIP WORKSHOP REPORT NO. 1) TOT Workshop and Health Education 0-124 2) FP/ORT Curriculum Development 0-119 3) FP/ORT Service Delivery Skills 0-120 4) Management/Supervision/Evaluation 0-121 5) Project Review & Follow-Up 0-78 This visit provided the initial opportunity for an INTRAH representative to observe Kwara State Trainers conduct in-service training. IV. DESCRIPTION OF ACTIVITIES Activities during the two day visit focused on the following: Meetings with MOH officials to discuss the present status and future plans of the child spacing program in Kwara State and related training needs. The capability of the MOH to sustain in-service training given financial constraints as funds under MOH-INTRAH subcontract are nearly depleted. Visits to FP clinical facilities used for in­ service trainee clinical practica. -3- Observation of members of the training team during the 5th FP/ORT workshop. V. FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS A. Child-BSacing Program 1. Finding The MOH operates 70 health care facilities throughout the state which offer MCH services. Fifty-three facilities offer FP service and are staffed with 1 or 2 trained service providers. It is anticipated that by the end of 1988 all 70 facilities will offer a range of FP services and each will be staffed by 2 trained clinicians. Local Government Areas (LGA) operate 265 facilities which include maternities and dispensaries. LGA officials plan to offer a range of family planning services in 90 facilities by the end of 1988. In preparation, LGA officials have requested the MOH to allocate slots for LGA personnel in every FP/ORT service delivery skills workshop. The MOH has agreed to accept 3-4 participants per workshop. Conclusion The strategy to implement child-spacing services throughout Kwara State, particularly in MOH facilities, has been carefully planned by the Director of Health Services and the FP Coordinator. There is an apparent need to continue in-service training for MOH and LGA personnel in order to meet the established goals. 2. Finding Supervision of FP services and personnel is the responsibility of the State FP Coordinator and the Deputy Coordinator. Logistical constraints and lack of financial support hinder supervisory activities. The MOH has expressed a need to conduct a Supervision and Management workshop to prepare at least 12 zonal supervisors who already have had FP training. Conclusion The MOH recognizes the importance of supervision of FP services and personnel in order to improve and maintain quality of CS services. -4- B. Service Statistics 3 . rn4ing a. A review of MOH/FP service statistics for the period July - September 1986 revealed: a well designed and detailed system of data collection (refer to report in Appendix B). - 6 of the 54 MOH facilities which offer CS services reported an average of 6-15 client visits daily. The 48 remaining clinics average 1.4 client visits daily. b. It was learned that the Pathfinder Fund will sponsor a male attitude survey to determine reasons for under-utilization of existing child-spacing services in the Ilorin area.

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.

Department of Geography & Environment Management University of Abuja, Gwagwalada, Abuja, Nigeria Email: [email protected] Abstract This study aims at looking at the relationship between poverty and spatial pattern of waterborne diseases in Kwara State. The study involved 353 household heads across the three senatorial districts of the study area. Multi-stage sampling technique was adopted to obtain all the relevant data. In all, in-depth- interviews (IDI) were conducted and 664 questionnaires were also administered in the randomly selected settlements of the wards on the subject matter. Data from all these sources were subjected to correlation analysis, thus for Kwara North Senatorial district, the p-value of .008 < 0.05 level of significance stood at a correlation level of 0.530 at 22 df. Additionally, for Kwara Central Senatorial district, the p- value of .352 > 0.05 level of significance stood at a correlation level of 0.199 at 22 df, while for Kwara South Senatorial. This because the p-value of .194 > 0.05 level of significance at a correlation level of 0.275 at 22 df. The study revealed that poverty has much influence on the prevalence of waterborne diseases: it therefore concludes that as a result of poverty, accessing adequate safe water facilities in the study area is a mirage.

  • The Untold Stories of the Esie Stone Figurines
    December 2008 Newsletter Exploring Frontiers of Archaeology and Cultural Resource Management: Untold Stories of the Esie Stone Figurines B y J. O. Aleru and K. Adekola* Abstract The north central Yorubaland homeland of the Igbomina Yoruba, in the modern Kwara State of Nigeria, is endowed with abundant natural and cultural resources. The cultural landscape of the area is indeed very rich. However, the vast majority of these significant elements of cultural heritage remain unexamined. In fact, most of these resources are hardly known. For about seven decades since the first and best known elements of cultural heritage in the area were unearthed in the town of Esie, we have yet to substantially expand the repertoire of knowledge concerning the cultural history of the region. For several decades, a number of scholars have decried the inadequacy of information on the ancient political, social, economic and religious structures that existed in this region (Aremu 1991, 2006; Folorunso, 2006; Obayemi, 1982; Onabajo, 1988, 1994; Pogoson, 1990; Aribidesi et al. 2005; Aleru, 2006). Yet, little research has been conducted to improve the situation. This article reports on the potential elements of natural and cultural heritage in the homeland of the Igbomina people, and of recent archaeological work undertaken by the authors within the region. Introduction Among the most prominent of known elements of cultural heritage in the homeland region of the Igbomina are 800 representational statues carved in steatite (or “soapstone”) found in the landscape surrounding the town of Esie in the modern Kwara State of Nigeria (Figs. 1-3). These figurines, ranging in size from 14 centimeters to over one meter in height, represent both men and women, often in positions seated on stools, kneeling, playing musical instruments, holding machetes, or with their hands placed upon their knees.

Adeoye, Olufemi Ogunsanwo and *Olusegun O. Ige Department of Geology and Mineral Sciences, University of Ilorin, P. M. B 1515, Ilorin, Nigeria *Corresponding author [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] ABSTRACT Urbanization and population rise are major factors that contribute to increase quantity of waste generation and its disposal constraint especially in developing countries. This study investigates the geotechnical properties of five soils from southwestern Nigeria for their use as liners in sanitary landfill for disposal of solid waste. The required parameters for soils to be considered as liners were determined in accordance with the British Standard Institute. Results obtained showed that the percentage of fines range from 42% to 82% and index of plasticity values range from 25.0% to 32.6%. Clay activity varies between 0.47 and 0.88. Thus, the soils are classified as non-expansive clay of low to medium plasticity. The maximum dry density values at standard Proctor energy of compaction range from 1.46g/cm 3 to 1.96g/cm 3 while those obtained at modified Proctor energy range from 1.57g/cm 3 to 2.09g/cm 3 .The highest coefficient of permeability value obtained for all soils investigated is 2.99 x 10 -9m/s.
