Abstract:

This study investigated the air quality of Aluu and Igwuruta communities both in Obio-Akpor Local Government Area of Rivers State, using carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), Sulphur dioxide (SO2), suspended particulate matter (SPM), Methare (CH4), ammonia (NH3) Ozone (03) and Volatile Organic Compound (VOCs) as indices. Sampling was done at eighteen (18) locations within Aluu and Igwuruta at graded distances from the two (2) flare points located within the study area. Ambient air temperature, relative humility and windspeed were also measured for the location. Results showed the follo

Abstract:

The scope of solid waste management practices among residents of the Igwuruta community in Rivers State's greater Port Harcourt city was examined in this research paper. We created four goals, four study questions, and four null hypotheses. Descriptive survey design was the research method chosen. Yaro Yamen's formula n=n was used to pick a sample size of 360 residents of the Igwuruta community using a basic random sampling technique of balloting without replacement. l+N(e)2 The information was gathered using a structured questionnaire, and descriptive statistics such as counts and per

The return to democratic dispensation and the surge to acquire political power had led to increase in violence in the Niger Delta region. This assumed different dimension for national issues as competition for scarce resources are being instigated by “inter-elite” rivalries over contradictions of ethnic diversity. These incessant struggles and the competitions had resulted into outright denial of people’s right and privileges as well as displacement of indigene and non indigene in that area.

Abstract A study was carried out on chemical hazards associated with traditional smoked fish. A total of eighteen smoked samples of two species of Clarias gariepinus and Micromesistus potassou were randomly selected from three major markets (Mile1 market, Choba market and Igwuruta market) in River State, Nigeria. Fish samples were aseptically homogenized and subjected to GC Analysis using Buck 530GC machine. The Benzo[a]pyrene [B(a)P] equivalent was used to determine risks associated with toxicity and mutagenicity of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) found from the smoked fish samples. R
