G. Maju-Oyovwikowhe¤, W. O. Emofurieta¤ Department of Geology, University of Benin, Benin City, Edo State, NIGERIA. Abstract Groundwater is water beneath the surface of the earth. The primary source is precipitation from rain, snow, and hail. Groundwater commonly occurs as water that fills pore spaces between mineral or rock grains in sediments and sedimentary rocks. This study is to evaluate the physiochemical characteristics and selected heavy metal levels of Water from Hand Dug Wells in Ososo in Akoko Edo Local Government Area of Edo State, Nigeria. A total of twenty (20) water samples were collected in very clean containers from twenty (20) hand dug wells in Ososo town, and taken to the laboratory immediately for physical, chemical and heavy metal analysis using standard laboratory techniques. The physical analysis results from the study show that depth to ground water is very shallow. Ph was below 7.5. Conductivity varies from 167.8-2120.00 /cm. The temperatures were uniform. The ground water is odorless and tasteless. The amounts of total suspended soil (TSS) in all the samples vary from 10–20 ppm. The total dissolved solid content (TDS) concentration for all the samples varies from 132–1320.00 ppm. Total hardness is soft to moderately hard. Total alkalinity values vary between 3.0 to 18.0 ppm.

  • 1 Institutional Fragility, Conflict and State Capabilities: Learning From
    Paper to ‘Confronting Conflict and Fragility in Africa’, Annual Bank Conference on Africa, Berkeley, USA, June 8-9, 2015 Institutional Fragility, Conflict and State Capabilities: Learning from Edo State, Nigeria1 Preamble Since the return to civilian rule in 1999, the politics associated with the distribution of Nigeria’s oil wealth, so-called fiscal federalism, has been both contentious and violent. Political instability and endemic conflict reflects the changing nature of violence itself in the country and, in the oil producing Delta States region2, the rise of ‘youth’ resistance movements animated by crime, ethnic identity, revenue extortion and state corruption, and popular protest over environmental harms inflicted by the oil and gas industry, deepening social inequality and perceived injustice in the distribution of oil wealth. Since 2003 the growing violence associated with the radical Islamism of Boko Haram seems on its face far removed from oil politics, but here too the complex relations between oil wealth and poverty in the north of Nigeria, and the rise of an alienated and disenfranchised youth population emerging from the ashes of economic recession, provide the backdrop to the insurgency that has engulfed the region. While conflicts are endemic on and off of the Niger delta oilfields, they are heterogeneous in form and in their dynamics. The kinds of conflicts that have emerged, and proliferated, since the early 2000s, including extreme violence and what can only be termed armed insurgencies in both the north and south of

  • Exploration, Evaluation and Exploitation in Parts of Igarra Area, Southwestern Nigeria N
    International Journal of Sciences Research Article Volume 7 – January 2018 (01) Crushed Rocks and Dimension Stone: Exploration, Evaluation and Exploitation in parts of Igarra Area, Southwestern Nigeria N. Egesi1, J. I. Nwosu1 1Department of Geology, Faculty of Science, University of Port Harcourt, Port Harcourt, Nigeria Abstract: The study area (Igarra) has been variously studied and is still receiving attention from workers on basement geology. Some investors in the quarry industry still make error in the selection of site for development and production of crushed rocks and dimension stone. The Octopol quarry in Igarra area was abandoned largely due to scanty information on the mineralogy of the schist quarried to ascertain the quality of the rock. However, granites, granite gneisses, charnockites and marbles present in the area can be suitable for dimension stone production. The marble should not be cleaned with wet cloth as the water will react with the rock to form a weak acid which attacks the polished surface and decolourize it to a dull and uninteresting surface. There is need to involve geoscientists in dimension stone site selection and production to ensure that proper rock is chosen, and also for quality control as mining progress rock quality varies. Keywords: Crushed rocks/Dimension Stone, Site Selection, Quarry Industry, Igarra Area, Southwest Nigeria INTRODUCTION schists, calc-silicate gneiss, quartzites, marbles, The Igarra area is part of the Precambrian Basement metaconglomerates are structurally overlying the Complex of Southwestern Nigeria. It is located mica schist unit and probably have been deformed at between latitude 07° 15' to 07° 30' N and longitude least twice during the Pan African Orogeny 550 ± 50 006° 00' to 006° 15' E.

  • Ethnic and Regional Identities in Nigerian Popular Music: a Special Focus on the Edo
    ETHNIC AND REGIONAL IDENTITIES IN NIGERIAN POPULAR MUSIC: A SPECIAL FOCUS ON THE EDO by AUSTIN EMIELU Introduction Nigeria has a population of over 150 million people with a population density of 184.2 people per square kilometre (477 people per square mile and runs a federal system of government and a bi-camera legislature. For administrative purposes, the country is divided into 36 states and 774 local government areas. Nigeria is home to over 250 ethnic groups. However, the three major ethnic groups as recognised by the federal government are: Igbo, Hausa and Yoruba (known in local linguistic parlance as Wa Zo Bia, terms which mean ‘come’ in the three languages). Since independence, these three major ethnic groups have dominated the political scene with many ethnic minorities feeling marginalized. Even among these ‘big three’, the issue of marginalization is still a problem which has led to various zoning formulae in governance. Also, these three major ethnic groups are not entirely homogenous. For example, the Yoruba who inhabit the south-west region consist of various sub-groups such as Ijesa, Ijebu, Eko, Ibolo, Okun and Igbomina amongst others. In the same vein, while Hausa people are generally believed to be the main inhabitants of northern Nigeria, the reality on the ground shows that there are many smaller groups who are generally subsumed under the name Hausa by outsiders. Th is phenomenon further complicates the internal structure of the nation state through over simplifi cation of ethnic group categories. None of the major languages are offi cial. English is the offi cial language of business in Nigeria.
