Using Baruten and Ilorin West Local Governments as case studies, this research study assess Local Government Administration in Kwara State. The essence of the research was to find out why there has been low grassroots development in Kwara and to proffer solution to this perennial issue. Based on this, the study has three objectives to determine which are as follows: whether or not the statutory allocation of Baruten and Ilorin West Local Governments is adequate for the development of the areas, to find out whether or not the funds allocated are utilised in ensuring development of these local governments, and to also find out whether or not there are other factors militating against development of both Baruten and Ilorin West Local Governments in Kwara State. The scope of the study covers the period of 1999 – 2007 being a period of democratic government. Data for the study was generated from both primary and secondary sources. The instruments used for primary data include interview and questionnaire while secondary sources include, books, articles, unpublished materials and so on. Based on the formulated hypotheses which says that, the amount of statutory allocation received by Baruten and Ilorin West Local Governments does not affect their developmental performance, and that interference of Kwara State government in the activities of Baruten and Ilorin West Local Governments has positively affects their performance we analysed data generated using tables, simple percentage and chi-square as statistical tools. And therefore the study reveals that, the amount of statutory allocation received by Baruten and Ilorin West Local Governments affects their developmental performance, that Baruten and Ilorin West Local Governments must seek for approval from the Kwara state government before embarking on any capital project, besides, that, the Kwara state government does not remit, the ten percent (10%) of her Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) to Baruten and Ilorin West local Governments and also that the operation of joint account among the local governments in Kwara state has hindered Baruten and Ilorin West Local Governments from meeting the yearning of the people at the grassroots. Inline with the above findings, we recommended that tax base and financial allocation of Baruten and Ilorin West Local Governments should be increased and Baruten and Ilorin West Local Governments should also judiciously make use of the available fund. Baruten and Ilorin West Local Governments should be given freedom in carrying out their constitutional functions, autonomy to embark on viable projects and federal government should ensure that, state governments comply with the 10% remittance of her Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) to Local Governments and finally, federal government allocation to local governments should be direct funding from the Federal Government to Local Government’s Accounts. vi TABLE OF CONTENTS Title Page - - - - - - - - - i Declaration - - - - - - - - - ii Certification - - - - - - - - - iii Dedication - - - - - - - - - iv Acknowledgement - - - - - - - - v Abstract - - - - - - - - - vi CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background to the Study - - - - - - 1 1.2 Statement of the Problem - - - - - - 5 1.3 Objective of the Study - - - - - - 7 1.4 Hypotheses - - - - - - - - 7 1.5 Scope and Limitation of the Study - - - - - 8 1.6 Significance of the Study - - - - - - 9 1.7.1 Method of Data Collection - - - - - - 10 1.7.2 Method of Data Analysis and Presentation - - - 10 1.7.3 Sampling Techniques - - - - - - 11 1.8 Definition of Terms - - - - - - - 12 CHAPTER TWO LITERATURE REVIEW AND THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK 2.1 Introduction - - - - - - - - 13 2.2 Concept of Local Government - - - - - 13 2.3 Evolution of Local Government Administration in Nigeria - 15 2.3.1 Pre-Colonial Period - - - - - - - 15 2.3.2 The Colonial Period - - - - - - - 17 2.3.3 Post – Colonial Period - - - - - - 19 2.4 Status and Functions of Local Governments in the 1999 Constitution 22 2.5 Need for Local Government - - - - - 25 2.6 The Contribution of Local Government to Development - 28 vii 2.7 Review of Past Empirical Studies - - - - - 34 2.8 Theoretical Framework - - - - - - 36 CHAPTER THREE HISTORY AND STRUCTURE OF BARUTEN LOCAL GOVERNMENT AND ILORIN WEST LOCAL GOVERNMENT 3.1 History of Baruten Local Government - - - - 41 3.2 History of Baruten Local Community - - - - 42 3.3 Economic Activities - - - - - - - 46 3.4 Education, Health and Tourism - - - - - 47 3.5 History of Ilorin West Local Government - - - - 47 3.6 History of the Local Community - - - - - 49 3.7 The Economic Activities - - - - - - 50 3.8 Education, Health and Tourism - - - - - 51 3.9 Structure and Administration of Baruten and Ilorin West Local Governments - - - - - - - 52 3.9.1 The Local Government Council - - - - - 52 3.9.2 The Chairman - - - - - - - 53 3.9.3 The Vice Chairman - - - - - - - 53 3.9.4 The Secretary - - - - - - - 54 3.9.5 The Director of Personnel - - - - - - 54 3.9.6 Portfolio and Non-Portfolio Councillors - - - - 54 3.9.7 Special Adviser (Political) to the Chairman - - - 55 3.9.8 The Internal Auditor - - - - - - 55 3.9.9 Area Auditor - - - - - - - - 55 3.9.10 Local Government Inspector - - - - - 56 3.9.11 Traditional Council - - - - - - - 56 3.9.12 Health Department - - - - - - - 57 3.9.13 Education Department - - - - - - 57 3.9.14 Agriculture Department - - - - - - 57 3.9.15 Works - - - - - - - - 58 viii 3.9.16 Finance - - - - - - - - 58 3.9.17 Women Unit - - - - - - - - 58 3.9.18 Personnel Department - - - - - - 58 3.9.19 Registries - - - - - - - - 59 CHAPTER FOUR DATA PRESENTATION AND ANALYSIS 4.1 Introduction - - - - - - - - 61 4.2 Test of Hypothesis One - - - - - - 64 4.3

  • 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.

Bee colony establishment rate were below 15% in Oyun, Asa, Irepodun and Ilorin west LGAs. In Ifelodun and Moro LGAs, 73.33% and 65.85% of the 60 and 41 bee hives mounted, respectively established bee colonies. The animals encountered in the hives within the state include ants, Campanotus pennsylvanicus Degeer (Hymenoptera: Formicidae); small bee beetle, Achina tumida Murray (Coleoptera: Nitidulidae); large bee beetle, Hoplostomus fuligineus Oliv. (Coleoptera: Dynastinae); greater wax moth, Galleria mellonella Linn. (Lepidotera: Pyralidae); lesser wax moth, Achroia grisella Fab, (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae); spider, Latrodectus mactan Fab. (Arachnid: Arannae); Termite, Macrotermis militaris Fuller (Isoptera: Termitidae) and Wasp, Polistes fuscatus Saussure (Hymenoptera: Vespidae). A description of each of these animals, their mean density per hive, interaction with the bee population as well as their distribution per LGA was highlighted.

  • 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.

Clays from five major towns in Baruten Local Government Area, Kwara State, Nigeria were examined using ASTM guidelines to determine their suitability for refractory applications. The clay samples were classified as Alumino-Silicate refractories due to high values of Al2O3 and SiO2. The results showed apparent porosity (19.4-25.6%), bulk density (1.83-1.90 g/cm3), cold crushing strength (38.7-56.1 N/mm2), linear shrinkage (4.4 – 9.3%), clay contents (52.71-67.83%), moisture content (17.0-23.6%), permeability (68-82 cmsec-1), plasticity (16.7-30.4%), refractoriness (>1300oC) and Thermal Shock Resistance (23-25 cycles) for the clay samples, which were measurable with the established standards for fireclays, refractory clays/brick lining or alumina-silicates and kaolin.
