EUROPEAN ACADEMIC RESEARCH Vol. II, Issue 11/ February 2015 Impact Factor: 3.1 (UIF) ISSN 2286-4822 DRJI Value: 5.9 (B+) www.euacademic.org Incidence of Food Security among Farming Households in Ogbomoso Agricultural Zone T. A. OLAOYE PhD. Candidate Department of Agricultural Economics Ladoke Akintola University of Technology Ogbomoso, Oyo-State, Nigeria W. A. ADEWOLE M. Tech. Candidate Department of Agricultural Extension and Rural Development Ladoke Akintola University of Technology Ogbomoso, Oyo-State, Nigeria Abstract This study examined the incidence of food security among farming households in Ogbomoso agricultural zone. Multistage random sampling technique was used in selecting the respondent for the study. In the first stage, 60% of the total number of villages in Ogbomosho North (3 villages) and Ogbomoso South Local Government Areas (4 villages) were randomly selected while 10% of the villages in Ogo-Oluwa LGA (16 villages) were selected making a total of 23 villages. The third stage, 10% of the number of household in Ogbomosho North and South Local Government Areas were randomly sampled as well as 0.5% of the number of household in Ogo-Oluwa Local Government Area, to give a total of 148 households as respondents for the study. Data were subjected to descriptive statistics. Over 56% of the Farmers had farm size of less or equal to 5 ha: this could encourage food availability for their various families in the study area. Households heads with no formal education had highest insecurity incidence (0.50), while those with tertiary education had the lowest food insecurity incidence (0.25). Food insecurity incidence increased with increase in household size. -

However the health indicators need a lot of improvement to keep the pace setter status. Oyo state has 262 maternal deaths per 100,000 live birth annually These maternal deaths are preventable with the use of reliable and appropriate interventions including family planning/ childbirth spacing (FP/CBS) services. Infant mortality stands at 69 deaths per 1,000 live births The unmet need for contraceptive use is 13.2% While the contraceptive prevalence Rate (CPR) is 37 .4% How to Improve Contraceptive Use in Oyo State. The Need for Specific Budget Line for Family Planning/ Child Spacing The NHIS and under 5/MDG fund initiative introduced by Oyo State as well as the new Health Insurance Agency provide a window of opportunity to mainstream FP/CBS in order to reach the undeserved and less privileged. There is the need to incorporate a specific budget line by creating a sub-code in the newly introduced IPSAS policy for FP/CBS programs. The continuous release of funds will create a huge opportunity to sustain FP services. Nigerian Urban Reproductive Health Initiative Adequate funding for FP/CBS is needed for logistics, capacity building, supervision, monitoring and demand creation to achieve improved uptake of FP/CBS Services. -

E-mail: [email protected] Received: April 21, 2020 Accepted: May 10, 2020 Online Published: May 15, 2020 Abstract The training needs of dairy cattle farmers in Oyo state, Nigeria were assessed. A well-structured interview schedule was used to obtain information from 123 respondents. Data were collected on socio-economic characteristics of the respondents, their dairy cattle production enterprises and their training needs which were ascertained in six major areas of cattle production: feeding, breeding, healthcare, housing and management, marketing and finance, product preparation and processing. Data were subjected to descriptive statistics and regression analysis using SPPS (V.21). Results revealed that most (30.1%) of the respondents were 24 – 29 years old, married, were male, had no formal education. Results also revealed that more than 90% of dairy cattle farmers perceived the training needs in feeding as most important. The training index in dairy farming indicated that majority (91.8%) of the farmers needed to be trained more on dairy cattle production and management. Based on the result of this study, it was concluded that breeding, feeding and health care were perceived as the “most needed” training by the respondents. -

Journal of Education and Practice www.iiste.org ISSN 2222-1735 (Paper) ISSN 2222-288X (Online) Vol.7, No.28, 2016 Factors Affecting Effective Teaching and Learning of Economics in Some Ogbomosho High Schools, Oyo State, Nigeria Gbemisola Motunrayo Ojo Vusy Nkoyane Department of Curriculum and Instructional Studies, College of Education, University of South Africa 0001 Abstract This study was carried out to examine the present curriculum of Economics as a subject in some Ogbomoso Senior High Schools and to determine factors affecting effective teaching of economics in the schools. Variables such as number of students, teachers’ ratio available textbooks were also examined. The study adopted descriptive design since it is an ex post facto research. The target population for this study is Ogbomosho North Local Government Area of Oyo State comprising nine (9) High Secondary Schools. Three (3) teachers of economics and five (5) students from each school were used in answering the questionnaires. The study revealed high number of economics students (5,864) as against 26 teachers in nine (9) public schools under study. This gives a very high teacher-student ratio of 1:225. The findings also showed that there one lack of teaching aids, library facilities and where available, there is lack of textbooks of Economics. All the schools studied were highly dense resulted into high students’ population. Based on the findings of his study, the federal and the state governments should employ more teachers, especially in Economics to checkmate rising teacher student ratio. More senior secondary schools should be built with the increasing student population within the LGA under study. -

Urinary Schistosomiasis Among Vulnerable Children in A
Uchendu et al. BMC Infectious Diseases (2017) 17:487 DOI 10.1186/s12879-017-2591-6 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Urinary schistosomiasis among vulnerable children in a rehabilitation home in Ibadan, Oyo state, Nigeria Obioma Uchendu1,2* , Victoria Oladoyin2, Michael Idowu1, Oluwapelumi Adeyera1, Oluwatosin Olabisi2, Oluwafisayomi Oluwatosin2 and Gbemisola Leigh2 Abstract Background: Schistosomiasis is a disease of public health importance with long term complications mostly common among children, rural dwellers, poor and migrant workers. Studies have not documented the burden among migrant workers and their families. The study aimed to describe the burden of schistosomiasis and demographic characteristics among children of migrant workers residing in a rehabilitation home in Ibadan, Nigeria. Methods: A cross-sectional study using sixty six children, who were tested following complaints of haematuria by six of them. An interviewer-administered questionnaire was used to collect information on demographic and environmental characteristics of the children and urine microscopy, was conducted. Data was analysed using descriptive statistics and correlation. Statistical significance was set at 5%. Results: Mean age of respondents was 11.8 ± 4.0 years and 57.6% were males. The prevalence of schistosomiasis was 19.7% with preponderance among males (64.3%) and children aged 12 years and above (71.4%); 85.7% of infected children were from Kwara State; 78.6% waded in water body and 92.9% had red blood cells and pus cells on urine microscopy. Conclusions: The burden of schistosomiasis is high among children of migrant workers and they serve as reservoirs for transmission of the disease. Government needs to work synergistically with NGOs, FBOs and other partners to achieve schistosomiasis prevention and control among this particular group. -

Summary: CHF 289,282 was allocated from the IFRC’s Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF) on 25 July 2011 to support the Nigerian Red Cross Society (NRCS) to deliver assistance to some 12,500 beneficiaries conduct an in-depth assessment, support 2011 flood preparedness programmes and preposition relief materials. NRCS provided assistance to 7,500 people (approximately 1,500 households) in three most affected areas of Alimosho, Ebute Metta and Agege that was affected by the flood disaster caused by a 17-hour heavy downpour in Lagos State on 11 July 2011. In August 2011, NRCS also provided assistance to Nigerian Red Cross Society volunteers in Agege during and environmental 1,500 persons (approximately 300 sanitation of gutters.
