Received 10 September, 2014; Accepted 24 October, 2014 The composition and diversity of planktonic algae in a sluggish tidal freshwater/brackish mangrove dominated creek (Ipa Itako) part of the Lagos lagoon was investigated for twelve months (February 2010 - January 2011). The surface water pH varied between 6.5 (December 2010) and 8.6 (August 2010) indicating a slightly acidic to alkaline nature of the creek. The salinity was higher during the dry months (November- April) and phosphate - phosphorus and nitrate-nitrogen recorded highesst values (3.50 and 16.70 mg/L) respectively in June, 2010. Ninety three species belonging to forty nine genera from five classes (Bacillariophyceae, Chlorophyceae, Euglenophyceae, Cyanophyceae and Xanthophyceae) were recorded. Bacillariophyceae constituted the most abundant group making up 72.85% of cells/ml followed by the Chlorophytes (18.02%) then the blue green (7.65%), euglenoids (1.40%) and xanthophytes (0.07%) with only Vaucheria sp. recorded as a representative of the group. Higher phytoplankton diversity and cell counts were recorded in the dry months than in the wet months. Navicula, Pinnularia, Cymbella (Diatoms) and Closterium (Chlorophyceae) were more frequently occurring species.

  • Historical Dynamics of Ọjị Ezinihitte Cultural Festival in Igboland, Nigeria
    67 International Journal of Modern Anthropology Int. J. Mod. Anthrop. 2020. Vol. 2, Issue 13, pp: 67 - 98 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/ijma.v2i13.2 Available online at: www.ata.org.tn & https://www.ajol.info/index.php/ijma Research Article Historical dynamics of Ọjị Ezinihitte cultural festival in Igboland, Nigeria Akachi Odoemene Department of History and International Studies, Federal University Otuoke, Bayelsa State, Nigeria E-mail: [email protected] (Received 6 January 2020; Accepted 16 May 2020; Published 6 June 2020) Abstract - Ọjị (kola nut) is indispensable in traditional life of the Igbo of Nigeria. It plays an intrinsic role in almost all segments of the people‟s cultural life. In the Ọjị Ezinihitte festivity the „kola tradition‟ is meaningfully and elaborately celebrated. This article examines the importance of Ọjị within the context of Ezinihitte socio-cultural heritage, and equally accounts for continuity and change within it. An eclectic framework in data collection was utilized for this research. This involved the use of key-informant interviews, direct observation as well as extant textual sources (both published and un-published), including archival documents, for the purposes of the study. In terms of analysis, the study utilized the qualitative analytical approach. This was employed towards ensuring that the three basic purposes of this study – exploration, description and explanation – are well articulated and attained. The paper provided background for a proper understanding of the „sacred origin‟ of the Ọjị festive celebration. Through a vivid account of the festival‟s processes and rituals, it achieved a reconstruction of the festivity‟s origins and evolutionary trajectories and argues the festival as reflecting the people‟s spirit of fraternity and conviviality.

In Nigeria, the issue of rural-urban migration is quite alarming owing to the discriminatory centralization of facilities in the cities as well as widening income gap between the urban and rural areas. In fact this skewed developmental process that favours the urban centers has remained the major problem causing the underdevelopment of the rural areas.

    African Scholar VOL. 18 NO. 6 Publications & ISSN: 2110-2086 Research SEPTEMBER, 2020 International African Scholar Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences (JHSS-6) Study of Forms and Functions of Esu – Oja Representational Objects in Yewaland, Ogun State, Nigeria Ayedun Matthew Kolawole Fine and Applied Arts Department, School of Vocational and Technical Education, Tai Solarin College of Education, Omu – Ijebu Abstract The representational images such as pots, rattles, bracelets, stones, cutlasses, wooden combs, staffs, mortals, brooms, etc. are religious and its significance for the worshippers were that they had faith in it. The denominator in the worship of all gods and spirits everywhere is faith. The power of an image was believed to be more real than that of a living being. The Yoruba appear to be satisfied with the gods with whom they are in immediate touch because they believe that when the Orisa have been worshipped, they will transmit what is necessary to Olodumare. This paper examines the traditional practices of the people of Yewa and discovers why Esu is market appellate. It focuses on the classifications of the forms and functions of Esu-Oja representational objects in selected towns in Yewaland. Keywords: appellate, classifications, divinities, fragment, forms, images, libations, mystical powers, Olodumare, representational, sacred, sacrifices, shrine, spirit archetype, transmission and transformation. Introduction Yewa which was formally called there are issues of intra-regional “Egbado” is located on Nigeria’s border conflicts that call for urgent attention. with the Republic of Benin. Yewa claim The popular decision to change the common origin from Ile-Ife, Oyo, ketu, Egbado name according to Asiwaju and Benin.

  • ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT of GAS FLARING on EBOCHA-EGBEMA, NIGER DELTA, NIGERIA *L. A. Nwaogu and G. O. C. Onyeze Department of Bioch
    International Journal of Energy and Environmental Research Vol.8, No.1, pp.1-11, March 2020 Published by ECRTD-UK ISSN 2055-0197(Print), ISSN 2055-0200(Online) ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF GAS FLARING ON EBOCHA-EGBEMA, NIGER DELTA, NIGERIA *L. A. Nwaogu and G. O. C. Onyeze Department of Biochemistry, School of Biological Sciences Federal University of Technology, Owerri, Nigeria. *Corresponding Author’s emails:[email protected] ; [email protected] ABSTRACT: The impact of gas flaring on Ebocha-Egbema environment in the Niger Delta area of Nigeria was investigated. Mbutu Mbaise which has no oil-drilling or gas flaring site, was selected as the control environment. Concentrations of air quality indices: carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulphur dioxide (SO2), methane (CH4) and particulates were determined. Air quality measurements in Ebocha were made, at least, 500 meters from the flaring site. Values of important indices of soil physico-chemical parameters: pH, nitrate (NO3), sulphate (SO4) and percentage carbon were determined for the two environments. Water samples from the two environments were analysed for their physico-chemical parameters. Results obtained revealed that the mean values for air quality indices, soil and water physico-chemical parameters for Ebocha were substantially higher than those for Mbutu Mbaise except pH values obtained for soil and water, indicating that gas flaring exerts adverse ecological effect on the air, soil and water environments in Ebocha. KEYWORDS: air quality, environmental impact, gas flaring, physico-chemical, parameters. INTRODUCTION The threat to human, animal and plant life posed by pollution due to gas flaring cannot be over- emphasized.

  • Analysis of Beef Consumption Pattern Among Rural Households in Yewa South Local Government Area of Ogun State, Nigeria
    Journal of Sustainable Development in Africa (Volume 17, No.8, 2015) ISSN: 1520-5509 Clarion University of Pennsylvania, Clarion, Pennsylvania ANALYSIS OF BEEF CONSUMPTION PATTERN AMONG RURAL HOUSEHOLDS IN YEWA SOUTH LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA OF OGUN STATE, NIGERIA Akerele, Ezekiel Olaoluwa; Ologbon, Olugbenga Adesoji Christopher; Otunaiya, Abiodun Olanrewaju; and Ambali, Isiaka Omotuyole Department of Agricultural Economics and Farm Management, College of Agricultural Sciences Olabisi Onabanjo University, Yewa Campus, Ayetoro, Ogun State ABSTRACT This study analysed the consumption pattern of beef among rural households in Yewa South Local Government Area of Ogun State, Nigeria. A two-stage simple random sampling technique was employed, and with the help of 120 well- structured questionnaires, data were collected from 120 rural households. The collected data were then subjected to both descriptive and econometrics statistics (regression analysis, Marginal Propensity To Consume (MPC), price elasticity of beef). The results indicated that the highest age of the consumers was within the age bracket of 30-39 years. 65% of the population was married. Secondary education takes the dominance with 49.2% having it. Their major occupation was petty trading (45%). The results showed that beef price and monthly expenditure on food items negatively affected beef consumption in the area, while beef preference, fish price, beef availability, total monthly income and major occupation positively affected beef consumption. Price elasticity of beef was found out to be -0.90006. The Marginal Propensity Consume of beef was 0.0017484. The identified major constraint to beef consumption in the area was low availability of beef. It is therefore recommended that large scale beef cattle rearing should be encouraged which will help to increase the production of safe beef for consumption.

  • Typha Grass Militating Against Agricultural Productivity Along Hadejia River, Jigawa State, Nigeria Sabo, B.B.1*, Karaye, A.K.2, Garba, A.3 and Ja'afar, U.4
    Scholarly Journal of Agricultural Science Vol. 6(2), pp. 52-56 May, 2016 Available online at http:// www.scholarly-journals.com/SJAS ISSN 2276-7118 © 2016 Scholarly-Journals Full Length Research Paper Typha Grass Militating Against Agricultural Productivity along Hadejia River, Jigawa State, Nigeria Sabo, B.B.1*, Karaye, A.K.2, Garba, A.3 and Ja'afar, U.4 Jigawa Research Institute, PMB 5015, Kazaure, Jigawa State Accepted 21 May, 2016 This research work tries to examine the socioeconomic impact of typha grass in some parts of noth eastern Jigawa State, Nigeria. For better understanding of the field conditions with regards to the impact of the grass on the socioeconomy of the area (agriculture, fishing and the livelihood pattern), three hundred (300) questionnaires were designed and administered, out of which only two hundred and forty six (246) were returned. Findings from the questionnaire survey of some communities along river Hadejia show that, there is general reduction in the flow of water in the river channel over the last few years. This was attributed to blockages by typha grass and silt deposits within the river channel. There is also reduced or loss of cultivation of some crops particularly irrigated crops such as maize, rice, wheat and vegetables, fishing activities in the area is also affected by the grass. Moreover, communities have tried communal and individual manual clearance of the typha, while Jigawa State and Federal Governments are also carrying out mechanical clearance work in the channel. All these efforts have little impact. Key words: Typha grass, Irrigated crops, Hadejia River.
