As the coordinator of the National Statistical System (NSS) and authoritative source of official statistics in Nigeria, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) has the statutory mandate of meeting this demand by providing accurate, timely and reliable official statistics. The Social Statistics Report 2017, builds on similar previous efforts to assess socio-economic indicators on Nigeria by reviewing developments during the period 2014, 2015 and 2016. It has been produced to meet NBS' specific mandate of collecting, collating, analysing and disseminating statistical information on all facets of national life, while also reflecting the coordinating role that NBS plays in its relationship with federal and state ministries, departments or agencies (MDAs). The Report, comprising of Part I: Summary Report and Part II: Statistical Appendix, is a compilation of data on the contemporary socio-economic situation in Nigeria. While it does not cover every single topic or sector, or represent the totality of available social statistics, it does present a variety of pertinent social and economic statistics and is indicative of what is available within the Bureau's data systems, both online and in print. Data for this publication was mainly generated from administrative sources, routinely collected from Federal Ministries, Departments and Agencies. In terms of structure, this summary report has been divided into sixteen chapters covering agriculture, civil service, communication, culture & tourism, education, elections, energy & environment, public finance, health, judiciary, labour, petroleum, security, transport and youth. I wish to acknowledge the support of the Planning, Research and Statistics Department of relevant MDAs in supplying data for the compilation of this report. While there are on-going efforts to further streamline the administrative data collection process, it is our expectation that more sectors will be covered in the future, and MDAs that have pending data submissions will be able to make necessary updates by the next reporting cycle. I am confident that this publication, together with the statistical appendix, will go a long way in meeting the needs of policy makers, researchers, students, social advocates and other relevant stakeholders to formulate policies and strategies as well as track changes on various dimensions of socio-economic conditions in Nigeria. It is therefore my pleasure to present this edition of Social Statistics Report 2017 to the various users. We welcome any suggestions and contributions that will help in improving future compilations. Dr. Yemi Kale Statistician-General of the Federation / Chief Executive Officer August 2018 1 Social Statistics – 2017 CHAPTER ONE Agriculture Agricultural production is key to the overall well being of the population. As a result, a lot of importance is placed on agriculture in order to develop and protect the sector, thereby guaranteeing sustainable food security, employment oppotunities, source of livelihood, contribution to national income, source of raw materials among others. Agriculture, for decades, had been associated with the production of basic food crops. Agriculture in Nigeria is a sector of the economy which provides employment for about 17% of the population. The sector is being trasformed by commercialization at the small, medium and large scale enterprise levels. This chapter deals with the cost of production per hectre of some crops in Nigeria. Figure 1.1 shows the cost(? ) per hectare of producing groundnut in 15 Northern states of Nigeria from 2014-2016. In 2016, the highest cost was recorded in Yobe State at the cost of ? 209,000 while the lowest in the same year was in Kwara State at the cost of ? 169,000. The three States of Borno, Kaduna and Nasarawa recorded the same cost of production per hectare at ? 200,000 each in 2014. FIGURE 1.1: COST(N) PER HECTARE OF GROUNDNUT PRODUCTION IN NIGERIA (2014-2016) Statistician-General of the Federation / Chief Executive Officer Table 1.1 shows the average cost per hectare of rice production in Nigeria (2014-2016). In 2015 and 2016, the average cost was N180,000 and N197,000 per hectare respectively. 2 Social Statistics – 2017 Table 1.1: AVERAGE COST (? ) PER HECTARE OF RICE PRODUCTION IN NIGERIA (2014-2016) YEAR 2014 2015 2016 COST (N) 172,000 180,000 197,000 Source: Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development Figure 1.2 shows the cost(? ) per hectare of maize production in Nigeria (2014-2016).

In the last three decades, in particular, international attention has been focused on the challenges of corruption. Recently, the international community has recognized its harmful impact by including a specific target to fight corruption in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Corruption is the bane of any progressive society. It stifles entrepreneurship, professionalism and erodes the values of hard work and honesty, and is one of the root causes of under-development in our society. Sadly, Nigeria as a country has experienced this menace for a long time but now appears to be tackling it head on. This chapter deals with corruption related data that is generated from the activities of Independent Corrupt Practices Commission (ICPC), Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB) and from a report released by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), in collaboration with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) in July, 2017. Table 2.1 shows the number of political office holders who declared their assets (2012-2014). There was an increase in the number of political office holders who declared their assets from 7,602 in 2012 to 9,271 in 2013 and 12,985 in 2014. This was an increase of 22 and 40 percent respectively. 4 Social Statistics – 2017 TABLE 2.1: SUMMARY OF POLITICAL OFFICE HOLDERS WHO DECLARED THEIR ASSETS BY STATE AND YEAR (2012-2014) STATE 2012 2013 2014 ABIA 88 80 35 ADAMAWA 221 401 96 AKWA IBOM 207 112 317 ANAMBRA 219 93 502 BAUCHI 269 - 161 BAYELSA 334 587 78 BENUE 73 1,625 70 BORNO 70 37 34 CROSS RIVER 684 689 689 DELTA 375 324 311 EBONYI 70 98 398 EDO 183 675 287 EKITI 70 109 140 ENUGU 292 285 270 GOMBE 258 189 375 IMO 96 119 147 JIGAWA 25 630 1,032 KADUNA 172 43 145 KANO 46 64 762 KATSINA 1,104 6 1,807 KEBBI 365 54 10 KOGI 107 498 158 KWARA 8 176 343 LAGOS NIL 1 482 NASSARAWA 106 65 148 NIGER 532 210 97 OGUN 278 333 28 ONDO - 99 2,014 OSUN 175 24 92 OYO 360 300 148 PLATEAU 176 119 551 RIVERS 266 113 502 SOKOTO 54 20 321 TARABA 109 20 68 YOBE 32 33 234 ZAMFARA 140 808 110 FCT 38 232 23 TOTAL 7,602 9,271 12,985 YEAR 2012 2013 2014 TOTAL 7,602 9,271 12,985 Source: Code of Conduct Bureau(CCB) 5 Social Statistics – 2017 FIG. 2.1: NUMBER OF POLITICAL OFFICE HOLDERS WHO DECLARED THEIR ASSETS BY YEAR (2012-2014) Fig. 2.2 shows total number of reported cases of corruption by state and year (2015-2016).
