African Migrations Workshop
African Migrations Workshop The Contribution of African Research to Migration Theory 16–19 November 2010, Dakar, Senegal Cross-border Networking and Identity Integration among Ejigbo-Yoruba in Abidjan, Cote d’Ivoire Adebusuyi Isaac ADENIRAN Department of Sociology and Anthropology Obafemi Awolowo University Ile-Ife, Nigeria [email protected] Telephone No: +234 8038927900 Abstract While it could seem logical for subjects of identifiable British and French West African states to intermingle freely, at least, on the bases of their respective; shared colonial experiences, the established pre-colonial mode of interaction has ostensibly outwitted such contemporary cleavages in most instances. This study essentially examines the effects of prevalent cross- border networking practices on Ejigbo-Yoruba migrants in Cote d’Ivoire; in measures of identity integration. The specific relevance of trans-border ethnic network in constructing a tenable identity for Ejigbo-Yoruba migrants within Ivorian social space is explored. The study’s specificities are situated within the confines of ‘social network’ and ‘social action’ postulates, while the research design routinely engaged the exploratory tradition. In all, the study surmises that identity positioning amongst Ejigbo-Yoruba migrants in Cote d’Ivoire is usually a product of ongoing interaction between ‘social space’ and ‘extant interest’, especially within the ‘host society’. Key Words: Cross-border, networking, identity construction, Ejigbo-Yoruba, Cote d’Ivoire Introduction While various factors have often been affirmed as precursors to extant migratory processes that extend beyond the immediate national delineate, one common denominator for its prevalence, over time, is that it does serve as a risk-averting strategy for individuals and households. -

Land Use Intensity and Efficiency of Food Crops Production in Osun State of Nigeria
Journal of Natural Sciences Research www.iiste.org ISSN 2224-3186 (Paper) ISSN 2225-0921 (Online) Vol.3, No.9, 2013 Land Use Intensity and Efficiency of Food Crops Production in Osun State of Nigeria *Oladeebo, J.O and S.K. Adekilekun Department of Agricultural Economics, Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, P.M.B 4000, Ogbomoso, Nigeria. *E-mail of corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract This study examined the relationship between land use intensity and food crops production efficiency in Osun State of Nigeria. Primary data obtained from 90 representative samples of food crop farmers drawn from Ede North Local Government Area in the Southwestern Nigeria were used for the study. Data obtained were analyzed by the use of descriptive statistics, indices of land use intensity and stochastic frontier production function. Results showed that majority of the food crop farmers were in their active age, educated and highly experienced in food crop crops production. Maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) shows that farm size had the highest production coefficient and was statistically significant at 5 percent level of significance. Results of the inefficiency analysis showed that while crop diversification, labour use intensity and age of the food crop farmers contributed positively and significantly to inefficiency, land use intensity contributed negatively to inefficiency of food crops production. Major land management methods used by the farmers were mulching, crop rotation and fertilizer use. Keywords: Food crops, land use intensity, Ruthenberg index, efficiency, Osun state 1. Introduction Agricultural development plays a vital role in overall economy of this nation. Nigeria is blessed with substantial natural resources which include fertile soil for growing of different food crops and fresh water resources. -

Opawole 2 1 Department of Quantity Surveying, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Nigeria 2 Department of Urban and Regional Planning, University of Ibadan, Nigeria Abstract Road infrastructure has a very high economic impact on the rural/urban integration especially with the creation of Osun State in 1992. The correlation between road infrastructure and economic development has been well established in literature. This study examined road infrastructure development in Osun State, South-western Nigeria between1999 and 2008. Structured questionnaire administered on 74 construction professionals and 32 financial administrators with official cadre ranging between principal and director in the public service of the State provided quantitative data for the study. In addition, a field survey of (17) road projects budgeted for execution in the State during this period was carried out. Data obtained were analyzed using percentage and relative significance index. The result of the study indicated poor implementation incidence of road projects in the State which is attributed to funding and coordination issues. Findings from the study provide information for rethinking budgeting for road infrastructure development in developing economy where road infrastructure financing depends on public funding.

International Journal of Development and Sustainability Online ISSN: 2168-8662 – www.isdsnet.com/ijds Volume 3 Number 1 (2013): Pages 55-69 ISDS Article ID: IJDS13072701 Analysis of market typology and functions in the development of Osun state, Nigeria F.K. Omole *, Yusuff Lukman, A.I. Baki Department of Urban and Regional Planning, Federal University of Technology, P M B. 704, Akure, Nigeria Abstract Market centres are socio-cultural, political and economic institutions created by man. They are of different types and have land use implications and functions. This study adopts three main methods for its data gathering, namely; inventory survey (to identify the existing market centres and their facilities), documentary analysis of literature and lastly the use of questionnaires directed at the sellers, shoppers and officers in-charge of the market centres. Findings reveal the existence of five related types of markets based on periods and durations of operation. The patronage of sellers and shoppers depends on the types of markets. Market administration was found to be undertaken by group of people called market associations, the local government councils and the community/kingship. Recommendation include: the establishment of more market centres in the state, provision of market facilities, construction and open-up of roads to facilitate easy distribution of goods and services to every part of the state.

Unmet Needs for Care and Support for the Elderly in Nigeria
Unmet Needs for Care and Support for the Elderly in Nigeria: Gaps in Experiences and Expectations of the Aged in Ilesa, South-West Nigeria DOI: 10.36108/NJSA/4102/12(0120) Akanni Ibukun Akinyemi 1 Ambrose Akinlo Department of Demography and Social Statistics Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile Ife, Nigeria 1Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract The study is focused on understanding the broad issues of care and support of the elderly with a view to explaining factors influencing the gaps in their expectations and experiences. This is an empirical attempt with a view to understanding and under- scoring the importance and limitation of the domains of support from core family members (spouses and children) within the available support networks for the elderly. The study utilized primary dataset including quantitative and qualitative data collected in Ijesa communities in South-west, Nigeria. The findings showed that children and spouses ranked highest among sources of support networks rated by the elderly for five patterns of support identified. Logistic regression results showed that individual variables including age, education, family of orientation, and living in same town with children to a large extent determine level of unmet need for support. The study concluded that personal attributes rather than other social variables are important determinants of high level of unmet need for elderly. Keywords: unmet needs, care and support, elderly, Ilesa, Nigeria Introduction Increasing trend in the population of the aged or elderly has been a big challenge for many developed countries. Their prevailing high life expectancy and low total fertility rates, hovering around the replacement level of 2.1, have given rise to a population structure with a large proportion of the aged relative to the working population. -

ADESOJI, Taofeek O. HASSAN, Nurudeen O. AROGUNDADE Department of History, Obafemi Awolowo University ABSTRACT The minority problem has been a major issue of interest at both the micro and national levels. Aside from the acclaimed Yoruba homogeneity and the notion of Ile-Ife as the cradle of Yoruba civilization, relationships between Ife indigenes and other communities in Ife Division (now in Osun State, Nigeria) have generated issues due to, and influenced by, politi- cal representation. Where allegations of marginalization have not been leveled, accommoda- tion has been based on extraneous considerations, similar to the ways in which outright exclu- sion and/or extermination have been put forward. Not only have suspicion, feelings of outright rejection, and subtle antagonism characterized majority–minority relations in Ife Division/ Administrative Zone, they have also produced political-cum-administrative and territorial ad- justments. As a microcosm of the Nigerian state, whose major challenge since attaining politi- cal independence has been the harmonization of interests among the various ethnic groups in the country, the Ife situation presents a peculiar example of the myths and realities of majority domination and minority resistance/response, or even a supposed minority attempt at domina- tion. -

DOI : https://dx.doi.org/10.26808/rs.st.i8v3.02 International Journal of Advanced Scientific and Technical Research Issue 8 volume 3 May-June 2018 Available online on http://www.rspublication.com/ijst/index.html ISSN 2249-9954 Characteristics of Concrete made with Gravel from Selected Mining Sites in Osun State, South-Western. Nigeria 1J.A Ige and 2S.O. Ajamu 1,2Department of Civil Engineering, Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Ogbomoso Correspondence e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Granite is an essential constituent material in concrete production as its inadequate quantity has led to massive application of gravel in construction works. Locally sourced gravels are characterized with impurities which affect the quality of the concrete. Therefore, this study investigated the quality of locally-sourced gravel across Osun State. Gravel samples were obtained from the borrowed pits across the three Senatorial Districts viz Osun West (OSW); Osun Central (OSC); and Osun East (OSE) of the State. The locations are: OSW [Irewole (IRW: 07030’N 04020’E), Egbedore (EGBE: 07040’N 04030’E), Ede North (EDE: 07040’N 04030’E)]; OSC [Ifelodun (IFD: 07055’N 04041’E), Osogbo (OSO: 7046’N 4034’E), Olorunda (OLO: 7046’N 4034’E)] ; and OSE [Ilesa West (ILS: 700N 500E), Ife Central (IFE: 70050’N 4069’E), Ife East (IFEE: 70050’N 4069’E)]. Physical examination in accordance with BS 882, Aggregate Crushing Value (ACV) test, and sieve analysis were carried out on the gravel samples. Concrete cubes were cast, subjected to Slump, Compressive strength and compared with BS 812 Standard. Physical examination shows samples having dry, dark, and brownish gravelly irregular shapes for OSW and OSC while they were predominantly reddish, gravelly irregular shapes for OSE. -

Attendance Dilemma and Its Effects on the Academic Performance of Secondary Schools’ Students in Osun State, Nigeria
International Journal of Humanities Social Sciences and Education (IJHSSE) Volume 1, Issue 4, April 2014, PP 13-20 ISSN 2349-0373 (Print) & ISSN 2349-0381 (Online) www.arcjournals.org Attendance Dilemma and its Effects on the Academic Performance of Secondary Schools’ Students in Osun State, Nigeria Fabgenle, Ayoola Olufunke Elegbeleye, Ayotunde Oluwadamilola Department of General Studies Department of Psychology Osun State College of Technology Covenant University Esa-Oke, Osun State, Nigeria Ota, Ogun State, Nigeria [email protected] [email protected] Abstract: Worried by the dwindling academic performance of students in the various national examinations in Nigeria in recent times, this study examined the causes of attendance challenge and their impact on the academic performance of Secondary Schools’ students in Osun State of Nigeria. To achieve this aim, scores in attendance and examinations for 3,050 students in the last three years were collected from 61 state-owned Secondary Schools out of a total of 208 Schools in the State. Two hypotheses were formulated and tested in this respect while descriptive and inferential statistical techniques were adopted for the analysis. The results indicated that the average attendance scores of students across the ten constituencies in the state are proportional to their examination scores. Also, parents/guardians ranked poverty level (M = 3.96), unbearable extra fees imposed on students by the school authority (M = 3.95) and high cost of instructional materials (M = 3.93) as major significant causes for their wards’ absenteeism at 2 2 school. The results of Chi-square value (χ cal = 26.35 > χ tab =7.32) for the test of hypothesis showed that a significant relationship exists between class attendance and academic performance of Secondary School students in the study area.
