    Mohammed et al. CABI Agric Biosci (2021) 2:25 https://doi.org/10.1186/s43170-021-00046-7 CABI Agriculture and Bioscience RESEARCH Open Access Appraisal of cowpea cropping systems and farmers’ perceptions of production constraints and preferences in the dry savannah areas of Nigeria Saba Baba Mohammed1,2, Daniel Kwadjo Dzidzienyo2* , Muhammad Lawan Umar1, Mohammad Faguji Ishiyaku1, Pangirayi Bernard Tongoona2 and Vernon Gracen2,3 Abstract Background: Low plant density and wide intra-plant spacing in traditional cowpea cropping systems are among the factors responsible for low yield on farmers’ felds. Sole cropping and improved intercropping systems have been advocated in the last few years to increase yield in the dry savannah areas of Nigeria. This study investigated the level of adoption of high yielding cowpea cropping systems including factors that infuenced their use and farmers’ perceived production constraints and preferences. A total of 420 farmers across 36 villages of northern Nigeria were interviewed, and data collected was analyzed using descriptive statistics to appraise farmers predominant cowpea cropping systems and factors that determine the use of sole versus intercropping were identifed with the aid of binary logit regression. Furthermore, pairwise comparison ranking was deployed to understand farmers’ view of cow- pea production constraints and preferred traits. Results: The results revealed that, many of the farmers (42%) still grow cowpeas in the traditional intercropping and a good number (25%) cultivate the crop as a sole crop, while 23% had felds of cowpeas in both sole and intercropping systems. Farmers reported the incidence of high insect pests, limited access to land, desire to have multiple benefts, and assurance in the event of crop failure as reasons for preference for intercropping over sole planting.

Howeyer, the endemic areas are generally located in the Sudan savannah. The Ivermectin Distribution Programme (IDP) is in the 7th treatment round in some of the LGAs while in the 6th treatment round in others. However, CDTI strategy started in 1999. The CDTI project is therefore implemented in 779 communities of the 18 APOC approved local governments. Mobilization of the community members was conducted in all the targeted communities.

    Report on Campaign against Electoral Violence – 2007 Plateau State With the collaboration of YARAC - Youth, Adolescent, Reflection and Action Center YARAC Creativity & Service REPORT ON ACTIVITIES DURING THE CAMPAIGNS REPORT ON THE CAMPAIGN AGAINST ELECTORAL VIOLENCE IN NIGERIA INTRODUCTION As a prelude to the Campaign against Electoral Violence in Nigeria, a survey was conducted with the aid of the annual Afro-Barometer/PSI surveys. The specific targets though in relation to the CAEVIN Project in Plateau state included two local government areas in just six(6) states. The whole essence of the survey was to determine change in perceptions before and after sensitization through campaigns in these states which have been noted to have a propensity towards conflict and other negatives during periods of election. Surveys in Plateau state were conducted in two local government areas. Jos-n North and Qua’an Pan. In Jos-North there were two designated enumeration areas, and these were; Those for Jos-north were; - Unity Commercial Institute - Alhaji Sabitu Abass Those for Qua’an Pan were; - Agwan Dan Zaria in Piya (or Ampiya) - Mai Anglican, Pandam From the surveys taken, one clearly noticeable drawback was the fact that the names of designated enumeration areas had been extracted from an obsolete source, thereby creating a drawback in locating these places. All of the designated places have had their names replaced, and it was later discovered that the names were extracted from a 1970’s census document. Places like Unity Commercial and Angwan Dan Zaria for instance had lost their names due to the either the change in the name of the landmark, as was seen with Unity Commercial, which was the name of a school, and is now called Highland College.

While she initially wanted to be a journalist, in 1983 she was encouraged to take education courses at the tertiary level in order to serve as a principal in girls’ secondary schools in Kano State. While other women had served in this position, there has been no women from Kano State who had done so.

  • Inequalities in Access to Water and Sanitation in Rural Settlements in Parts of Southwest Nigeria
    Inequalities in Access to Water and Sanitation in Rural Settlements in Parts of Southwest Nigeria Isaiah Sewanu Akoteyon Abstract Access to water, sanitation, and hygiene is a major human right necessary for achieving Sustainable Development Goals. The study examined inequalities in access to water and sanitation in rural settlements covering Apa, Ikoga, Ibeshe, Itori, Eruwa, and Lanlate in parts of Southwest Nigeria. Purposive and random sampling techniques were employed to select six settlements and administered 400 questionnaires to households respectively. Descriptive statistics, chi-square, and factor analysis were employed for data analysis. The result shows that the majority of the households interviewed are adults with secondary school certificate. The major available water supply and sanitation facilities in the study area are boreholes and an open pit latrine. About 50.8% and 48.1% of the households gained access to improved water and sanitation respectively in the study area. Badagry and Ewekoro recorded the highest access for improved water and sanitation respectively. Only 8% of the households gained access to safe water supply in the study area. The sanitary condition in the study area is poor. The chi-square shows a significant relationship between the dependent variables (water sources/types of toilet facilities) and independent variable (marital status, age, and income) at p<0.01. Factor analysis explained 68.86% of the total variance and extracted five components. The five factors revealed three major factors namely; demographic, environmental and water source as the main factors affecting household access to water and sanitation. The study is significant because it contributes to knowledge in the areas of WaSH and environmental sustainability.
