Abstract:

Population distributionof Pycnanthus. angolensis was carried out in two locations of three States (Osun, Ekiti and Oyo) due to abundance and availability using direct enumeration. A total of 58 stands of plant viz Osun state 58.93%, Ekiti State 28.57% and Oyo State 12.50% were assessed. Variation occurred within each State (Osun State: Ila 32.35% >20.59% Olooyo and Mojapa, Gbongan 17.65%, Ile Ogbo 5.88% and least in Ajaba (2.94%). In Ekiti State, Osan 43.75% > Otun 31.25%. > 25% Ayetoro Ekiti. In Oyo State, Adewumi, 28.57% > 14.29 %> Idito, Erumu, Sapara (U.I), Mosque (U.I) and Amina (U.I), 39 juvenile and 19 mature trees (flowering and fruiting) varied in ratios 30:6 Osun State, 9:7 Ekiti State and 0:6 Oyo state respectively. Osun State had the highest number of juvenile trees (30), 9 in Ekiti State and zero juvenile in Oyo state. Ekiti State had the highest number of mature tree 7> Oyo and Osun (6). Osun State had greater number of juvenile trees than Ekiti and Oyo States. P. angolensis was found growing in fallow or abandoned land, marshy areas, farmland, river side, new site areas and Quarters. P. angolensis could be found on different habitats among the States and within the States. Given the high rate of forest destruction in the country, there is need to ensure sustainable conservation of the forest area to avoid further destruction by provision of alternative means of livelihood for the local population so as to reduce their dependence on these forest.

Abstract:

The diversity in people account for how they seek information and this is what has prompted this study. This paper investigated the Information-Seeking behaviour of students of Ajayi Crowther University, a private university in South Western Nigeria. The survey research method was used and questionnaire administered to five hundred (500) students randomly selected from the three (3) faculties in the university. The data gathered from the questionnaire was analysed using the frequency count and simple percentage. It was discovered that majority of the students (66%) sought information for academic purposes and the library (62.8%) was their preferred place of searching and using information resources. Also, that their course of study (47.6%) influenced the format (55.4%) they want information in. Majority of the respondents (53.2%) also expressed satisfaction with the library for being able to meet their information needs. Recommendations were then made that the library should increase and improve its stock to meet the demands of the students, provide working internet connectivity to enhance ease of electronic search and databases and train its staff in interpersonal relations to improve staff- user relations. And lastly, that periodic user education should be carried out in the library to educate users on effective and efficient use of the library to get maximum satisfaction.

Abstract:

Abstract Islam as a (dÊn) religion and a perfect way of life was the first vehicle that conveyed education to the people of Oyo Alaafin, as it has done so in many parts of the country (Nigeria). This form of education is termed here as Arabic/Islamic education. Later on, Christianity came in with another system known as Western education. Generally, education is seen as a catalyst for knowledge acquisition as well as an instrument of growth, development, transformation and civilization. Be that as it may, the paper depicts the geographical location of Oyo Alaafin on the map, discusses the emergence of Islam in Oyo and talks about what is meant by education. It analyses how the Oyo people were acquainted with the Arabic/Islamic system of education before other forms of education. The study also exposes the challenges that the Western type of education posed on the Arabic/Islamic form and the resistance from the latter. It also sheds light on the gradual development(s) that led to the harmonization and amalgamation of the two educational systems. The research provides some suggestions for further enhancement of Muslim education not only in Oyo Alaafin, but also in Nigeria as a whole. This paper is essentially a library-oriented research, which involved acquisition of materials and data from books, journals, online journal articles and magazines. Furthermore, some interviews were also conducted. Keywords: Arabic/Islamic, Challenges, Developments, Education, Muslim, Oyo Alaafin, Western. Abstrak Islam sebagai agama dan cara hidup yang lengkap menjadi pengerak kepada pembangunan pendidikan dalam kalangan penduduk Oyo Alaafin, dan tersebar di banyak kawasan di Nigeria. Pendidikan yang sebegini dikenali sebagai pendidikan Arab-Islam. Setelah itu agama Kristian masuk dengan membawa sistem pendidikan Barat. Pada umumnya, pendidikan dilihat sebagai pemangkin kepada penhasilan ilmu pengetahuan dan pada masa yang sama menjadi pengerak kepada pertumbuhan, pembangunan, transformasi dan tamadun. Walau apa keadaan sekalipun, kertas kerja ini akan menyatakan kedudukan geografi Oyo Alaafin. Kertas kerja ini membincangkan sejarah kedatangan Islam ke Oyo serta menghuraikan apa yang dimaksudkan dengan pendidikan serta menganalisis bagaimana penduduk Oyo mengenali sistem pendidikan Arab-Islam pada peringkat awal sebelum ketibaan sistem-sistem yang lain. Kajian ini juga cuba mendedahkan cabaran-cabaran daripada sistem pendidikan Barat terhadap sistem pendidikan Arab-Islam dan usaha yang dilakukan orang Islam bagi menyekat pengaruh sistem pendidikan Barat. Kajian ini turut menyatakan secara berperingkat proses pembangunan ke arah mengharmoni dan mencantumkan kedua-dua sistem berkenaan. Kajian ini turut mengemukakan beberapa cadangan ke arah penambahabaikan pendidikan Islam, bukan sahaja di Oyo Alaafin tetapi juga di Nigeria secara amnya. Kajian ini banyak menggunakan bahan-bahan perpustakaan bagi mendapatkan data-data kajian menerusi buku, jurnal dan majalah di samping wawancara dan temubual. Kata Kunci: Arab-Islam, cabaran, pembangunan, pendidikan, orang Islam, Oyo Alaafin, Barat.

Abstract:

AbstractThis study assessed the level of community awareness and participation in ecotourism in Old Oyo National Park, Nigeria. Data were collected in communities located in four ranges (i.e. administrative and protection zones) of Old Oyo National Park, Oyo State, Southwest Nigeria. The ranges are Tede, Marguba, Sepeteri, and Oyo-Ile. Seven (7) communities out of 27 that are in Tede range were selected, eight (8) were selected from 12 communities in Marguba range, eight (8) were selected from 17 communities in Sepeteri range while eight (8) were selected from 30 communities in Oyo Ile range. The study was a questionnaire survey involving 150 respondents that were randomly selected from communities in the four (4) ranges of the Park. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, one way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Tukey’s HSD, t-test and logistic regression. Results revealed that 48% of the respondents were aware of ecotourism while 52% were not. Also, 46% participated in ecotourism while 54% did not participate. A relationship exists between ecotourism awareness and participation (p<0.01). Community type (p<0.01) was the only predictor of community awareness of ecotourism while community type (p<0.01) and awareness (p<0.01) were the predictors of participation in ecotourism in the park. Awareness, active involvement of communities in stakeholder meetings, decision-making and provision of start-up capital are important for ecotourism development in the park.

Abstract:

The study examined the water sanitation facilities utilization among the rural households of south west Nigeria. The study specifically described the socio-economic characteristics of the rural household heads; identified various sources of water supply and their providers; examined the rural household heads’ knowledge of water source contamination; examined respondents’ awareness of adequate water treatment methods and the awareness of waterborne disease. The population of the study comprised of all the rural households in Ondo and Oyo States in Southwestern of Nigeria. The sampling procedure employed was multistage sampling technique to select 355 household heads comprising a total of 167 rural household considered out of 278 rural households from the selected cells in Oyo state while a total of 188 rural household heads selected out of 314 rural household heads from the selected cells in Ondo State for the study. The data for the study were analyzed with descriptive statistics such as frequency count, percentage, mean and standard deviation while inferential statistical tool such as logistic regression analysis model The mean age of the respondents from Ondo State was 47 years while that of respondents from Oyo State was 45 years. Rain water collection was the major source of improved water supply from Ondo State (87.4%) and Oyo State (86.7%). In both Ondo and Oyo States, the knowledge of water source contamination is still on moderate level. Households in Ondo State (WMS = 2.98) and Oyo State (WMS = 2.91) were more aware of boiling of water as the major adequate water treatment methods. In both states, the awareness of adequate water treatment methods is still on moderate level. In both States, the awareness of water-borne diseases is still on moderate level, majority had favourable attitude towards utilization of water sanitation facilities while the level of utilization of water sanitation facilities is still on moderate level. The result of the Regression analysis model indicated that years of schooling (t=-3.758***; p=0.000) and households’ size (t=-2.089**; p=0.037) were significantly related to utilization of water sanitation facilities. It was therefore concluded that the utilization of water sanitation facilities was influenced by income level, knowledge of water source contamination, awareness of adequate water treatment methods, awareness of water-borne diseases, household size. The local council being the agency saddled with water provision, should be more empowered in terms of resources and facilities in order to be able to do their work of water provision and water sanitation information dissemination effectively

Abstract:

The low agricultural productivity level of farmers in Nigeria has been partly attributed to their low educational level relative to their counterparts in the developed nations. This study was therefore conducted to find out farmers’ education and their agricultural activities in Oyo–West Local Government Area (LGA) of Oyo State. Multi–stage sampling technique was adopted for the survey. The survey area was divided into two zones, and each zone divided into five quarters making 10 quarters in all, and a total of 100 questionnaires were administered. The data were processed and subjected to descriptive analysis using frequency count and simple percentages. From the results obtained, all the respondents had a minimum of primary education but 68% of them didn’t have formal training in agriculture. Also, the study revealed that 90% of the respondents were visited by extension agents on a yearly basis while 60% claimed extension services had positive effects on their farming activities. Also, 84% of the respondents claimed education enhanced access to finance, market and information. The paper concluded that education can make farmers better and take them out of subsistence agriculture. The paper then recommended well structured extension services by the use of mass media, Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and adult literacy classes for uneducated farmers.

Abstract:

Seedling growth performance is germane and pertinent in plant variables when analyzing tree provenance trials as it indicates its adaptability of the seed to the environments/habitat. The study was undertaken to examine the comparative studies on seedling performance of Khaya senegalensis at nursery stage in Forestry Research Institute of Nigeria. Seeds from four sources in different States in Nigeria: Oyo, Borno, Jigawa and Kano States were collected and planted to observe their morphological attributes. Seedlings variables (Plant height, collar diameter and number of leaves) were observed and recorded fortnightly for sixteen (16) weeks after germination was completed. It was observed that seeds from Oyo state performed best while seeds from Kano state had the least performance. Provenances variation indicate genetic and environmental differences that can be utilized for afforestation programmes and thus, this study recommends the seeds from Oyo state for large scale afforestation since it performed best. Keywords: Khaya senegalensis, seed provenance, seedling height, collar diameter and number of leaves.

Abstract:

Increased rice productivity for years is not a solution if rice farming efficiency cannot be sustained for the next hundred years. The study analysed the efficiency of rice farmers in Oyo State. A multistage sampling procedure was employed to select 128 rice farmers for the study. Primary data were obtained with the aid of well-structured questionnaire and interview schedule. Descriptive statistics and stochastic frontier model were employed in the analysis of the data. Majority (78.1%) of the rice farmers had one form of education or the other while the age of rice farmers ranges from 25 to 78 years and mean age of 47 years. The stochastic frontier results (Maximum Likelihood Estimates) revealed that farm output increases with farm size, hired labour, and fertilizer but decreases with herbicides. Also, technical efficiency of the farmers increases with formal education, farming experience, household size, extension contact and distance of farm to market. The mean technical efficiency, allocative efficiency and economic efficiency of 88.5 percent, 66.9 percent and 58.3 percent respectively showed that there is room for improvement in technical efficiency by 11.5 percent, allocative efficiency by 33.1 percent and economic efficiency by 41.7 percent with the present technology. Policy option requires the rice farmers to reduce the use of agro chemical. Farmers should expand their farm land to ensure efficient utilization of resources. Above all, formal education and adult literacy education should be strengthened among the rice farmers.

Abstract:

Water quality determines the distribution of aquatic organisms within aquatic ecosystem. Deterioration of water quality is of a great concern in freshwater ecosystem because of its adverse effects on freshwater organisms. Therefore, the physico-chemical parameters of Ikere-gorge were examined in this study to determine its suitability for fish production. Air and water temperature, transparency, electrical conductivity and totaldissolved solids were determined in-situ. Dissolved oxygen, alkalinity, hardness, phosphate and nitrate were determined with standard analytical methods. The selected parameters examined in this study were determined monthly between January 2017 and December 2018. The mean monthly values of physico-chemical parameters of Ikere-gorge obtained are as follows: air temperature (27.46±1.82 ºC), water temperature (28.14±1.57 ºC), pH (6.50±0.63), water transparency (1.34±0.12 m), dissolved oxygen (5.93±0.29 mg/L), electrical conductivity (130.59±7.59 μS/cm), total dissolved solids (67.67±4.37 mg/L), total hardness (56.70±15.76 mg/L), total alkalinity (58.97±9.53 mg/L), total phosphate (2.22±0.67 μg/L) and nitrate (2.90±1.23 μg/L). Likewise, it was observed that surface water temperature had negative significant relationship with dissolved oxygen at P < 0.05.Transparency has negative significant relationship with phytoplankton abundance at 0.05 (P ˂ 0.05) and with phosphate and nitrate at 0.01 significant level. The annual mean of Trophic Status Index based on total phosphate is 15.04±1.63. This classified Ikere-gorge trophic status as mesotrophic at stage 2. The result of this study reveals the mesotrophic status of Ikere-gorge and water quality are within the ranges recommended for fish production and should be adequately managed for sustainable fish production.

Abstract:

Feed mills play a vital role in the success of the livestock industry. Feed mills operation in Oyo zone of Oyo state, Nigeria is as old as the livestock industry in the zone. However, very little information on the activities of the feed mills in the zone is available. This study was therefore carried out to elicit information on the activities of the feed mills in Oyo zone, Nigeria. A multistage sampling method was adopted for this study. In the first stage, Oyo zone was divided into four, while in the second stage 10 questionnaires were administered to feed millers in each of the four Local Government Areas (LGAs), making a total of 40 in all. All administered questionnaires were recovered, processed and subjected to descriptive statistics using frequency counts and percentages. From the result obtained, majority of the respondents had tertiary education (70.00%) and 65.00% of them were casual workers. The study also shows that majority of the feed mills in the study area were for commercial purposes (70.00%) and semi-automated (65.00%). Also, 67.50 claimed they had separate structures where they stored the feed ingredients and feeds and 72.50% of the feed millers claimed awareness of mycotoxins in feed ingredients and feeds. The study reveals that majority of the respondents financed their feed mill businesses through their personal savings (40.00%). It can be recommended that low interest credit facilities be provided to the feed millers by the concerned authorities to further boost their businesses. Les usines d'aliments des animaux jouent un rôle essentiel dans le succès de l'industrie de l'élevage. L'operation des usines d'aliments des animaux dans la zone d'Oyo de l'État d'Oyo, au Nigéria, est aussi ancienne que l'industrie de l'élevage dans la zone. Cependant, très peu d'informations sur les activités des meuneries de la zone sont disponibles. Cette étude a donc été réalisée pour obtenir des informations sur les activités des usines d'aliments des animaux dans la zone d'Oyo, au Nigeria. Une méthode d'échantillonnage à plusieurs degrés a été adoptée pour cette étude. Dans la première étape, la zone d'Oyo a été divisée en quatre, tandis que dans la deuxième étape, 10 questionnaires ont été administrés aux minotiers dans chacune des quatre zones de gouvernement local (LGA), pour faire un total de 40. Tous les questionnaires administrés ont été récupérés, traités et soumis à des statistiques descriptive utilisant des comptages de fréquence et des pourcentages. D'après le résultat obtenu, la majorité des répondants avaient une formation supérieure (70.00%) et 65.00% d'entre eux étaient des travailleurs occasionnels. L'étude montre également que la majorité des meuneries de la zone d'étude étaient à des fins commerciales (70.00%) et semi-automatisées (65.00%). En outre, 67.50 ont déclaré qu'ils avaient des structures séparées où ils stockaient les ingrédients et les aliments des animaux et 72.50% des fabricants d'aliments des animaux ont déclaré qu'ils étaient conscients des mycotoxines présentes dans les ingrédients et les aliments des animaux. L'étude révèle que la majorité des répondants ont financé leurs activités de meunerie grâce à leurs économies personnelles (40,00%). Il peut être recommandé que les autorités concernées fournissent des facilités de crédit à tauxfaible aux meuneries afin de stimuler davantageleurs activités.

Abstract:

Background: Members of the Anopheles gambiae s.l. remain the most efficient vectors of malaria parasite in Africa. However, for timely and effective vector control activities, the distribution of these important vectors in local communities is crucial. We therefore determine the distribution of the members of Anopheles gambiae s.l. in Oyo State, Nigeria Methods: Larval stages of Anopheles mosquitoes were collected from identified mosquito breeding sites in six localities (Oluyole, Eruwa, Oyo, Ojoo, Bodija, and Ogbomoso) in Oyo State and reared to adults. Three to five days old adult emergence were identified morphologically using standard methods. A total of 100 mosquitoes were selected from each of localities for molecular analysis. DNA were extracted and Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR-ID) followed by restriction endonucleases digestion was used for molecular identification. Results: A total of 58 larval breeding sites were sampled out of which 12 (20.7%) had Anophelines only, 21 (36.2%) contained Culicines only and the remaining 25 (43.1%) had both Anophelines and Culicines. The mosquitoes were mostly found in footprints, followed by tire tracks, pools, puddle and ponds. The habitat type distribution for Anopheline and Culicines were not different (χ2=5.25, DF=5, P>0.01). A total of 1,725 Anophelines emerged from the collection out of which, 823 were females. All the female samples were morphologically identified as members of the Anopheles gambiae s.l.. A total of 600 (72.9%) of the female Anopheline population was subjected to PCR. PCR-ID showed that the mosquito populations contained higher numbers of Anopheles arabiensis (58%) than Anopheles gambiae s.s. (42%). Enzyme digest indicate that samples from Oluyole, Iwo road and Bodija were man-ly the M form (now called An. coluzzii), while both M (An. colizzii) and S (An. gambiae) form occur in sympatry in Oyo town and Eruwa. Conclusion: This study presents information on the distribution of Anopheles arabiensis, Anopheles coluzzii and Anopheles gambiae in Oyo State. This has implication on the vector control activities in the State as members of these Anopheles mosquitoes exhibit varying feeding behaviours, transmission pattern and resistance profiles. Such information is useful in planning vector control activities for the State
