  • Spatial Distributions of Aquifer Hydraulic Properties from Pumping Test Data in Anambra State, Southeastern Nigeria

The study area lies within longitudes 06° 38I and 007° 15IE and latitudes 05°42I and 006°45IN within an area extent of about 4844sqkm (1870sqmi), underlain by four main geological formations. Pump testing was carried out in over one hundred (100) locations in the study area. The single-well test approach was used, employing the constant discharge and recovery methods. The Cooper-Jacob’s straight-line method was used to analyze the pump test results. This enabled the computing of the aquifer hydraulic properties. Correlated borehole logs show total depth range of 80meters to 250meters, with lithologic sequence of top sandy clay – medium to coarse grained sand – clay/shale – sand/sandstone, with the medium to coarse grained sand thickly underlying the central part of the study area. Static water level ranges from 100meters to 260meters at the central part and 10meters to 90meters at the adjoining areas. Aquifer transmissivity values range from 5m2/day to 80m2/day, indicating variable transmissivity potentials, while hydraulic conductivity values range from 0.5m/day to 6.0m/day.

Father Vincent NWOSU ABSTRACT Recent studies in African church historiography have increasingly shown that the generally acknowledged successful planting of Christian Churches in parts of Africa, especially the East and West, from the nineteenth century was not entirely the work of foreign missionaries alone. Africans themselves participated actively in p la n tin g , sustaining and propagating the faith. These Africans can clearly be grouped into two: first, those who were ordained ministers of the church, and secondly, the lay members.

  • Research Report
    1.1 CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Soil erosion is the systematic removal of soil, including plant nutrients, from the land surface by various agents of denudation (Ofomata, 1985). Water being the dominant agent of denudation initiates erosion by rain splash impact, drag and tractive force acting on individual particles of the surface soil. These are consequently transported seizing slope advantage for deposition elsewhere. Soil erosion is generally created by initial incision into the subsurface by concentrated runoff water along lines or zones of weakness such as tension and desiccation fractures. As these deepen, the sides give in or slide with the erosion of the side walls forming gullies. During the Stone Age, soil erosion was counted as a blessing because it unearths valuable treasures which lie hidden below the earth strata like gold, diamond and archaeological remains. Today, soil erosion has become an endemic global problem, In the South eastern Nigeria, mostly in Anambra State, it is an age long one that has attained a catastrophic dimension. This environmental hazard, because of the striking imprints on the landscape, has sparked off serious attention of researchers and government organisations for sometime now. Grove(1951); Carter(1958); Floyd(1965); Ofomata (1964,1965,1967,1973,and 1981); all made significant and refreshing contributions on the processes and measures to combat soil erosion. Gully Erosion is however the prominent feature in the landscape of Anambra State. The topography of the area as well as the nature of the soil contributes to speedy formation and spreading of gullies in the area (Ofomata, 2000);. 1.2 Erosion Types There are various types of erosion which occur these include Soil Erosion Rill Erosion Gully Erosion Sheet Erosion 1.2.1 Soil Erosion: This has been occurring for some 450 million years, since the first land plants formed the first soil.

  • Assessment of Human Capital Attributes Influencing Occupational Diversification Among Rural Women in Anambra State, Nigeria
    International Journal of Sustainable Agricultural Research 2015 Vol.2, No.2, pp.31-44 ISSN(e): 2312-6477 ISSN(p): 2313-0393 DOI: 10.18488/journal.70/2015.2.2/70.2.31.44 © 2015 Conscientia Beam. All Rights Reserved. ASSESSMENT OF HUMAN CAPITAL ATTRIBUTES INFLUENCING OCCUPATIONAL DIVERSIFICATION AMONG RURAL WOMEN IN ANAMBRA STATE, NIGERIA † Ajani, E.N1 --- Igbokwe, E.M2 1 Department of Agricultural Extension and Communication, University of Agriculture, Makurdi, Nigeria 2 Department of Agricultural Extension, University of Nigeria, Nsukka, Nigeria ABSTRACT The study was carried out in Anambra State, Nigeria to assess the influence of human capital attributes on occupational diversification among rural women. Simple random sampling technique was used in selecting 462 respondents for the study. Data was collected using questionnaire. Descriptive statistics such as percentage mean scores, standard deviation; factor analysis and correlation were used for data analysis. Results show that the respondents were mostly influenced by certain human capital attributes namely; possession of entrepreneurial skills (59.5%), number of dependants in the household (55.4%), access to information on changing demand patterns (52.6%) 52.4% and perceived health status (52.4%). They were also highly constrained by lack of women empowerment training programmes in rural areas (M= 3.5), poor skill training (M= 3.5), inadequate training opportunities (M= 3.4), poor educational attainment (M= 3.3), among others. Developing skills in rural women are keys to improving rural productivity, employability and income-earning opportunities, enhancing food security and promoting environmentally sustainable rural development and livelihoods. It was recommended that adult literacy programmes should be introduced by government and non-governmental organizations in order to help the rural women to acquire necessary education that will help them in occupational diversification.

Dept. of Geoinformatics & Surveying University of Nigeria Enugu Campus * E-mail of the corresponding author: [email protected] , [email protected] The paper was written from a project on erosion sponsored by World Bank/Federal Ministry of Environment (Nigeria Government) under NEWMAP project Abstracts Erosion has been described as the washing away of the top soil as a result of the actions of agents such as water and wind. Gully erosion, being the predominant in Southern Nigeria, is also a type of environmental degradation with a lot of disastrous consequences caused mainly by flood as a result of high precipitation, which is fallout of climate change. It can be determined, especially in terms of extent and scope, monitored and controlled. Surveyors’ contributions through provision of the necessary data, which includes, the topographic map of the area, DTM, catchment and watershed information, both centreline and cross sectional profiles of the resultant gully, the plan view of the gully and its tributaries, etc., for the research and design works on erosion control, have been examined. The data provided was also used for the computation of the volume of runoff from the catchment passing through the gully channel as well as the appropriate slope that would reduce the flow speed.

  • Household Water Demand in the Peri-Urban Communities of Awka, Capital of Anambra State, Nigeria

Accepted 22 July, 2013 The aim of this paper is to determine relevant factors contributing to the water demand in the peri-urban communities of Awka capital city. Towards achieving this aim, questionnaire were developed and served on the households in various communities to collect relevant data on the 13 physical and socio- economic factors we earlier identified as influencing water demand in the area. Water quality was ascertained through microbiological analysis of water samples. The major analytical techniques used were multiple correlations, the result of which was subjected to Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Principal Component Regression. Result shows that the 13 variables combined to contribute 90.0% of water demand in the area. Furthermore, the low standard error of estimates of 0.029 litres shows that water demand in the communities could be predicted using the 13 variables. Policy and planning measures to improve the water supply situation of the area were suggested. Key words: Capital, communities, factors, peri-urban, water demand.
