  • 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.

  • Analysis of Condition of Rural Road Transport in Kwara State, Nigeria
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by European Scientific Journal (European Scientific Institute) European Scientific Journal February 2014 edition vol.10, No.5 ISSN: 1857 – 7881 (Print) e - ISSN 1857- 7431 ANALYSIS OF CONDITION OF RURAL ROAD TRANSPORT IN KWARA STATE, NIGERIA Abdulkadir Bolaji Usman Department of Geography and Environmental Management, University of Ilorin, Nigeria Abstract Despite the crucial role transportation plays in the socio-economic development of every society most developing countries are characterized by inadequate transport. This study examines the road transport situation in rural areas of Kwara State, Nigeria. The work adopted an integrated approach whereby rural road transport is viewed as a whole complex of the available roads, transport services and Intermediate Means of Transport (IMT). A total of 993 respondents were surveyed across the three senatorial districts of the state. The data collected were analysed using frequency counts, percentages, mean ranking and histograms. Four topological measures were also used to determine the road network connectivity in the sampled LGAs. Overall, road network connectivity, level of road accessibility and transport services are generally poor and inadequate in rural areas of the state. However, spatial variations were found to exist in the area. Kaiama LGA was found to have the least level of road accessibility, road network connectivity and has the poorest transport services among the sampled LGAs. This implies that there is a greater restriction on mobility with attendant negative effects on the economy and general wellbeing of the people in the area. Transportation problems faced by rural residents in the area include that of poor road surface conditions, high cost of transport, overloading and incessant highway robberies.

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 Jonathan Presidency, by Abati, the Guardian, Dec. 17
    The Jonathan Presidency By Reuben Abati Published by The Jonathan Presidency The Jonathan Presidency By Reuben Abati A review of the Goodluck Jonathan Presidency in Nigeria should provide significant insight into both his story and the larger Nigerian narrative. We consider this to be a necessary exercise as the country prepares for the next general elections and the Jonathan Presidency faces the certain fate of becoming lame-duck earlier than anticipated. The general impression about President Jonathan among Nigerians is that he is as his name suggests, a product of sheer luck. They say this because here is a President whose story as a politician began in 1998, and who within the space of ten years appears to have made the fastest stride from zero to “stardom” in Nigerian political history. Jonathan himself has had cause to declare that he is from a relatively unknown village called Otuoke in Bayelsa state; he claims he did not have shoes to wear to school, one of those children who ate rice only at Xmas. When his father died in February 2008, it was probably the first time that Otuoke would play host to the kind of quality crowd that showed up in the community. The beauty of the Jonathan story is to be found in its inspirational value, namely that the Nigerian dream could still take on the shape of phenomenal and transformational social mobility in spite of all the inequities in the land. With Jonathan’s emergence as the occupier of the highest office in the land, many Nigerians who had ordinarily given up on the country and the future felt imbued with renewed energy and hope.

    Arabian Journal of Business and Management Review (OMAN Chapter) Vol. 3, No.12; July. 2014 EXECUTIVE-LEGISLATURE FEUD IN NIGERIA: AN EXAMINATION OF SERVICE CHIEFS CONFIRMATION, 1999-2014 EME, OKECHUKWU .I. OGBOCHIE,ANDREW DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION & LOCAL GOVERNMENT STUDIES UNIVERSITY OF NIGERIA, NSUKKA ENUGU STATE Abstract Until not very long ago, the literature on legislative-executive relations was bifurcated. It had evolved into two separate and independent bodies of work. One thesis focused on parliamentary and the other on presidential systems, which were considered to represent two completely independent and alternative ways to organize the political world. Today a more integrated view of executive-legislative relations in democratic regimes exists. The emergence of this new perspective owes a great deal to the appearance of two seminal books, which, perhaps in a way unintended by the authors, questioned the premises upon which the bifurcated view of parliamentary democracy and presidential democracy rested. Kaare Strom’s Minority Government and Majority Rule (1990) demolished on empirical and theoretical grounds the basic office- seeking assumption that informed studies of parliamentarism. John Huber’s Rationalizing Parliament (1996), in turn, questioned the appropriateness of the conflict model at the root of most thinking about executive-legislative relations in democracies. The specific contribution of each of these authors may be traced to studies of legislative politics that focused on the United States of America congress. As a consequence of these shifts, legislative organization came to the forefront of analyses of executive-legislative relations. In Nigeria, since the transition to civilian rule in May 29, 1999, the country has witnessed conflicts between the legislature and the executive over budget, oversight, and vote allocation matters.
