Abstract:

Niamey, the capital of Niger, is particularly prone to floods, since it is on the banks of the Niger River, which in its middle basin has two flood peaks: one in summer (the red flood) and one in winter (the black flood). In 2020, the Niger River in Niamey reached its all-time highest levels following an abundant rainy season. On the other hand, the floods in Niamey have been particularly frequent in the last decade, a symptom of a change in hydroclimatic behaviour already observed since the end of the great droughts of the 1970s and 1980s and which is identified with the name of Sahelian Paradox. This study, starting from the analysis of the 2020 flood and from the update of the rating curve of the Niamey hydrometric station, analyses the rainfall–runoff relationship on the Sahelian basins of the Medium Niger River Basin (MNRB) that are at the origin of the local flood. The comparative analysis of runoffs, annual maximum flows (AMAX) and runoff coefficients with various rainfall indices calculated on gridded datasets allowed to hydroclimatically characterise the last decade as a different period from the wet one before the drought, the dry one and the post-drought one. Compared to the last one, the current period is characterised by a sustained increase in hydrological indicators (AMAX +27%) consistent with the increase in both the accumulation of precipitation (+11%) and the number (+51%) and magnitude (+54%) of extreme events in the MNRB. Furthermore, a greater concentration of rainfall and extremes (+78%) in August contributes to reinforcing the red flood’s positive anomalies (+2.23 st.dev in 2020). The study indicates that under these conditions the frequency of extreme hydrological events in Niamey will tend to increase further also because of the concurrence of drivers such as river-bed silting and levee effects. Consequently, the study concludes with the need for a comprehensive flood-risk assessment on the Niamey city that considers both recent hydroclimatic trends and urbanisation dynamics in flood zones hence defining the most appropriate risk-reduction strategies.

Abstract:

Combining multivariable statistics and geostatistics with landscape metrics, we attempted to quantify the spatial pattern of urbanization in the city of Niamey, Niger. Landscape metrics provided local quantification of both landscape composition and physiognomy while the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) yielded a multivariable summary of the main source of landscape metrics variation across the city. We used the variogram (geostatistics) to analyze the spatial pattern of the PCA outcomes and to characterize the associated spatial scales of variation. In Niamey, the main urban structure corresponded to a gradient ranging from highly diversified, fragmented, and both wooded and built-up areas in the city center and along the Niger River, to less green zones gathering steel-roofed houses whose density diminished towards the periphery. This concentric structure centered on the Niger River clearly reflected the history of Niamey. PCA and geostatistics provided appealing quantitative estimates of spatial patterns, scales, anisotropy and intensity of urban structures. Although these different tools are known in landscape ecology, they are rarely used together. The present paper illustrates how they allow characterizing the marked spatial variation of the urban landscape of the fast-growing African city of Niamey (Niger). Such a quantification of the urban landscapes may be extremely useful for future correlative investigations in various fields of research and planning.

Abstract:

The Niger River is the third more important river in Africa and drains a surface of about 2,120,000 km². It includes six hydrographic regions representing West African ecosystems. Despite the importance of this river at the regional and continental scale, little information has been collected on its biogeochemical characteristics and particularly on its role in the transportation and the transformation of matter (carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus). This study present the results of two years investigation, April 2011 to March 2013 in the middle Niger, upstream Niamey (Niger) city [2.01° E, 13.57° N], according to a bi-weekly observation frequency. The variables measured are temperature, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, pH, suspended matter, dissolved inorganic carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) and particulars organics C and N as well as isotopic composition of these elements. Daily discharges of the river come from hydrologic station measurement of the Niger authority Basin (NBA) at Niamey city. Hydrologic situation was strongly contrasted between the 2 years of survey. The mean discharge of the first year was only 673 m3 s-1 (one of the weakest discharge recorded on the river Niger at Niamey since 1940), while the mean discharge of the second year was 1,096 m3 s-1. Our results show that suspended matter, particular organic carbon, dissolved organic carbon and dissolved inorganic carbon are transported mainly during the local flood, induced by precipitations in July and August. The second flood (Guinean flood) which occurred, during November to January, is characterized by low temperatures and clean waters.

Abstract:

Abstract In their effort to contribute to Islamic reform in Niamey, young Salafi (Sunnance) have embraced preaching and have made it part of their religious practice. As preachers or audience members, they invest time and energy to imagine various ways to popularize the Sunna, the tradition of the prophet Muhammad. Because of the jokes, mimicry, and theatrics that characterize their preaching style, their critics have rejected their initiatives, claiming they are unqualified and therefore should not be allowed to preach. In response, Sunnance have argued that an effective sermon (wazu) requires art, skills, ingenuity and know-how (iyawa, hikma in Hausa). By examining how aesthetics are central to Sunnance popular and street preaching, this article invites a reexamination of Salafism through its aesthetic forms. Wazu is not just a gathering that seeks to deliver a message, be it divine; it is also a way to promote religiosity through particular cultural and aesthetic performances.

Abstract:

Abstract. A dramatic increase in the frequency and intensity of floods due to the Niger River in the city of Niamey (Niger) has been observed in the last decade. Previous studies highlighted the role of the land use changes on the flood increase since 1970s. In the last decade, observations have raised the issue of a possible increase in extreme rainfall in the Sahel, which may have caused the recent and extreme floods in Niamey in 2010, 2012 and 2013. The study focuses on the 125 000 km2 basin between Ansongo and Niamey. This is the drainage area of the monsoon rainfall that leads to the rapid flow rise occurring between June and October. To understand the possible role of rainfall in flood intensification, satellite rainfall estimate is attractive in a region where the operational gauge network is sparse. This paper analyses the evolution of the Niger hydrograph in Niamey based on discharge observations, hydrological modelling and the satellite product PERSIANN-CDR, over the 1983–2013 period. PERSIANN-CDR is first compared with four other rainfall products. The salient features of the observed changes, i.e. a marked change in the mean decadal hydrograph, is well mimicked by the simulations, implying that rainfall is the first driver to the observed changes. The increase of flooded years over the period is also well reproduced but with some uncertainties in the exact number of flood days per year.

In Niamey, hira groups are the most important institution of public culture. More than any other aspect of Hausa social organization, hira groups bring together, in a concentrated fashion, circulating people and circulating ideas and thus offer a prime localized entry into the global reality of modernity.

Abstract:

Women entrepreneurship in the informal sector, such as street food vending, is important for poverty alleviation in West Africa. The street food sector provides employment for women and inexpensive and nutritious food for the urban poor. In this paper, we determine the importance of the cowpea street food sector, evaluate the determinants of successful enterprises and ascertain the impact of economic, cultural, religious and geographic differentials between enterprises in Niamey, Niger and Kumasi, Ghana. Data were collected through in-person interviews with 114 and 122 women street food entrepreneurs in both countries in 2009. Results revealed that women entrepreneurs engaged in the cowpea street food sector can earn incomes 4 times and 16 times higher than the minimum legal wage in Niamey and Kumasi, respectively. Incomes earned from these entrepreneurial activities contribute directly to health, education and needs of their families. OLS regression results indicate that lack of financial resources, stable business locations and religious beliefs are important entrepreneurial success factors. Cross-country comparisons revealed enterprises in Kumasi are larger and more successful than those in Niamey.

Abstract:

Appelée « virus chinois » au début de sa propagation, la maladie à coronavirus 2019 (Covid-19) a bouleversé la planète terre à cause de son ampleur sanitaire, socio-économique, culturelle, géopolitique, etc. Au moment où les pays occidentaux et autres contrées du monde, en l’occurrence l’Amérique Latine et quelques pays asiatiques comme la Chine et l’Inde, comptent leurs milliers de morts et millions d’infectés par cette maladie, en Afrique subsaharienne particulièrement au Niger la Covid-19 a eu très peu d’impact sanitaire sur la population. Mais pour des mesures préventives, les gouvernants nigériens ont pris des dispositifs coercitifs semblables à ceux des pays fortement touchés par la pandémie du coronavirus. Ainsi, il est à constater le confinement d’une importante partie de la population et l’instauration d’un couvre-feu nocturne qui restreint ipso facto les libertés individuelles fondamentales. Cette restriction n’a pas été sans conséquence sur le climat social, provoquant ainsi des remous sociaux, des vives contestations voire la désobéissance civile résultant par des violences policières hors normes surtout à Niamey dans la capitale nigérienne. Cette étude est essentiellement basée sur la méthode qualitative à travers l’usage de la grille d’observation et du guide d’entretien semi-dirigé comme outils d’enquête pour analyser les impacts du confinement contre la Covid-19 sur les personnes victimes et témoins des effets du couvre-feu et/ou des violences policières à Niamey. Leurs perceptions déterminent des comportements qui banalisent ou non les gestes barrières contre le coronavirus. Quant aux résultats de l’étude, ils montrent que les violences policières reflètent le caractère conflictuel de la gestion de cette pandémie et freinent l’adhésion pacifique et totale de la population aux mesures préventives contre la Covid-19. Ces résultats montrent aussi que l’absence des mesures d’accompagnement conséquentes des autorités politiques a considérablement contribué à l’inobservance desdites mesures par la population de Niamey. Some people name it "Chinese virus" as it spreads. The 2019 coronavirus disease (Covid-19) disrupts our planet earth because of its health, socio-economic, cultural, geopolitical scale, etc. At a time when Western countries and other parts of the world, in this case Latin America and some Asian countries such as China and India, count their thousands of deaths and millions infected by this disease, in Sub-Saharan Africa particularly in Niger, Covid-19 has very little health impact on the population. But, for preventive measures, nigérien rulers have taken coercive measures similar to those in countries strongly affected by the coronavirus pandemic. Thus, it is to be noted that locking down a large part of the population and setting of a night curfew which ipso facto restrict fundamental individual freedoms. Indeed, this restriction has consequences on social scale by causing for instance social unrest, strong protests and even civil disobedience resulting in extraordinary police violence, especially in Niamey, the capital City of Niger. This study is essentially based on the qualitative method through the use of observation grid and semi-structured interview guide as survey tools to analyze the impacts of locking down against Covid-19 of people who are victims and witnesses of the curfew effects and/or police violence in Niamey. Their perceptions determine behaviors that may or may not trivialize barrier gestures against coronavirus. As for the outcomes of our study, they show that police violence reflects conflictual nature of management of this pandemic and hinders the peaceful and total support of the population for preventive measures against Covid-19. These results also show the absence of subsequent additional measures from political authorities leading considerably to the nonobservance of these measures by the population of Niamey.

Abstract:

In recent years, sachet water known as "pure water" has gained the confidence of the Nigerien public because of its low price, availability, convenience, and quality perception by consumers. This study highlights the impact of storage on the quality of pure water sold in Niamey. Thus, eleven of the twelve analyzed physicochemical parameters have been monitored during six weeks of "pure water" storage in the sun and at laboratory ambient temperature. From the results obtained, the physicochemical parameters are in norms except the turbidity and the residual chlorine. On the Bacteriological plan, the total germs, the salmonellae, the fecal streptococci and the Escherichia coli have been identified. In addition, the monitoring of the evolution of the parameters analyzed during six weeks of storage revealed a change of the organoleptic quality that appears in the fourth week and a development of Escherichia Coli for the "pure water" exposed in the sun. This study showed, on the one hand, that these "pure water" would be unfit to the human consumption and on the other hand, their storage for a prolonged period and a high temperature affects their qualities. Les eaux conditionnées en sachet plastique, communément appelées "pure water", ont depuis quelques années, gagné la confiance du public nigérien en raison de leur faible prix, leur disponibilité, la commodité, et de la perception de qualité par les consommateurs. Ce travail étudie l’impact du stockage sur la qualité des "pure water" vendues à Niamey. Ainsi, onze parmi les douze paramètres physico-chimiques analysés ont été suivis pendant six semaines de stockage des "pure water" au soleil et à la température ambiante de laboratoire. A l’issue des résultats obtenus, les paramètres physico-chimiques sont dans les normes hormis la turbidité et le chlore résiduel. Sur le plan bactériologique, les germes totaux, les salmonelles, les streptocoques fécaux et les Escherichia colis ont été identifiés. Par ailleurs, le suivi de l’évolution des paramètres analysés pendant six semaines de stockage a révélé une altération de la qualité organoleptique qui se manifeste à la quatrième semaine et un développement des Escherichia colis pour les "pure water" exposées au soleil. Cette étude a montré, d’une part, que ces "pure water" seraient impropres à la consommation humaine et d’autre part, leur stockage pendant une période prolongée et une température élevée affecte leurs qualités.

Abstract:

Despite the interest in detecting the extremes of climate in the West African Sahel, few studies have been specifically conducted on the Republic of Niger. This research focuses on past, present, and future precipitation trends for the city of Niamey through the combined assessment of WMO precipitation indices using RClimDex and the Standardized Precipitation Index. Past daily precipitation data were derived from a 60-year reconstructed meteorological dataset for the Niamey airport station for the period of 1950–2009 and validated through comparison with an observed time series at Niamey airport (1980–2012). Precipitation analysis confirms the literature’s findings, in particular, a decreasing trend in total precipitation over the period of 1950–2009, and a positive trend for data that spans over the period of 1980–2009, suggesting a precipitation recovery after the dry epoch (1968–1985), even if the deficit with the wettest years in the period of 1950–1968 has not been made up. Furthermore, WATCH-Forcing-Data-ERA-Interim projections, elaborated under RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5 socio-economic conditions, show that precipitation will increase in the future. Therefore, the Nigerien population will benefit from increased rainfall, but will also have to cope with the exacerbation of both flood and drought risks due to a great interannual variability that can positively or negatively influence water availability.

Abstract:

AbstractIntroductionChronic pain is a major health problem, considered as a disease in its own right. The prevalence of chronic pain is estimated to be between 2% and 40% in adult populations. In Niger, there are no data on chronic pain.AimsThis study was designed to provide the demographic, clinical and etiological profile of chronic pain in patients from Niger in order to create a database on chronic pain in Niger.Patients and methodsOur study is prospectively conducted at the department of external consultation of the Hôpital National de Niamey over a period of 10 months from 31 May 2016 to 30 January 2017 collecting all cases of chronic pain. The demographic, clinical and etiological characteristics of all patients were collected and analyzed.ResultsDuring the period of the study, 1927 patients consulted at the department of external consultation of the Hôpital National de Niamey, among which 411 patients had chronic pain (21.33% [95% CI: 19.53% and 23.13%]). The average age was 48.28 years (±12.84) with 51.6% of patients aged over 50 years. The male sex was predominant (61.8%). The most common sites of chronic pain were legs (25.5%), back (14.4%), neck (13.6%), knees (13.4%) and feet (13.1%). Osteoarthritis was the most common cause of chronic pain (35.5%), followed by herniated disc (22.2%), spondylodiscitis (14.6%) and migraine (4.1%). Significantly patients aged 50-59 years suffered from neck and legs pain (p value < 0.001). Significantly chronic headaches and rheumatoid arthritis were more common in women while osteoarthritis, herniated disc and spondylodiscite were more common in men (p value = 0.001). Significantly osteoarthritis and herniated disc were more common in patients older than 40 years (p value < 0.001).ConclusionOur study provides demographic, clinical and etiological data of chronic pain in patients from Niger, and shows that chronic pain is a common reason for consultation in Niger concerning 1 in 5 patients with a high prevalence among men and patients aged over 40 years.

Abstract:

This article examines social representations of information and communications technologies (ICT) in high school students in Niamey, Niger, and explores whether these representations are determined by training in and regular use of ICT. A sample of 50 students attending two lycÃ©es (an academically oriented high school) was studied. Only one lycÃ©e offered computer courses. The results of semi-directed interviews show that, whether or not they took computer courses, the students developed social representations of ICT. These representations were associated with favourable attitudes toward computer and Internet use at school. The chi-square test hypothesis shows that studentsâ€™ social representations of ICT were not determined by training in ICT.

Abstract:

Aims: To describe the clinical peculiarities of retinoblastoma and to outline the difficulties in their management in our context. Patients and Methods: We carried out a prospective study in all the cases of retinoblastoma from January 2014 to July 2015 in Niamey National Hospital. We studied: age, sex, first sign, age at first symptoms, time taken to seek medical help, anterior treatment , consanguinity, laterality, stage of tumor, extension of tumor, treatment done, survival rate. Results: The study was about 57 kids, among which 38 boys and 19 girls giving a sex ratio of 2.The mean age at diagnosis was 32 months with extremes of 7 months and 6 years. The range 2 to 3 years were most affected with 35 cases (61, 4%). Leucocorie was the onset symptom in 50 cases (87, 7%), strabismus in 7 cases (12, 3%). Traditional treatment was seen in 45 patients (79%). Consanguinity was found in 45 cases (79%), no family history of tumor was found in this study. In 38 cases (66, 66%) diagnosis was after one year of onset, the left eye was affected in 22 patients (38, 59%), the right eye in 21 patients (36, 84%) and it was bilateral in 14 cases (24, 56%). All our patients were at stage V of Reese classification, the tumor was extra-ocular in 54 patients (94, 6%) and intra-ocular in 5, 4% of cases. Enucleation was performed in 46 cases (80, 70%) and 56 patients (94, 73%) underwent chemotherapy cure. The survival rate after 18 months was of 15, 78%. Conclusion: Late presentation, diagnosis at an advance stage, and limited treatment options are the main factors responsible for the low rate of survival in this study.

Abstract:

Some physicochemical (insoluble content, ionic composition, density, and X-ray diffraction spectra) characteristics of Nigerien evaporites were investigated in this study. The results obtained showed that trona is the main mineral contained in Agadez, Dirkou, Niamey, and Zinder evaporites while thenardite and halite constitute the major minerals in Bilma and Tabalak evaporites, respectively. In addition, all evaporites samples investigated revealed the presence of quartz and halite. Other interesting minerals (calcite, gypsum, sylvite, aphthitalite, nahcolite, illite, burkeite, kaolinite, griceite, and talc) were also detected. The use of Agadez, Dirkou, Niamey, and Zinder evaporites as catalyst to accelerate cowpea cooking is due to bicarbonates ions present in trona. Bilma and Tabalak evaporites employed in animal feeding are due to the halite contained in a significant quantity.

Abstract:

AbstractThis article examines the commodity chain and value chain of half-litre water bags (referred to as ‘pure water’ or ‘sachet water’) in Niamey, Niger. We begin with a focus on the discarded bag and work backwards through the commodity chain to consumers, vendors and finally producers of ‘pure water’ to reveal the underlying power structures, cultural perceptions and assumptions that ultimately resulted in the discarded bag and landscapes of waste. We assert that the economic value of the plastic bag, largely assigned during the stages of its production, is based on four characteristics: the label, the temperature of the water, the time of year it is sold, and the apparent ‘purity’ of the water. We further demonstrate how characteristics of economic value are steeped in cultural perceptions and social relationships in Niamey. Using interviews with agents and actors at all levels of the commodity chain, we reveal how this local, hybrid system is connected to and affected by larger, global economic and political forces.

Abstract:

This study aims to ﬁll two lacunae in the literature on development in Africa: the contribution of women in general to the development of society, and the role that women fulﬁll in the areas undergoing rapid urbanization, a newly emerging focus of research, because of the growing importance of these conurbations to the economies,and therefore the life, of these societies. Based on survey data from interviews conducted under the auspices of the Six Cities Project, the study compares the contribution of women in both the formal and informal economic sectors in Niamey and Bamako, the capital cities and major urban centers of Niger and Mali, respectively, focusing on the household as a unit of analysis, and especially on the "hearthhold," deﬁned as mother-child interactions within a household. This study is a preliminary attempt to draw an ethnographic picture or overview of women's lives in these two urban centers at the aggregate level in order to create baseline understandings which can contribute to social and economic change and raise the position of women in society.Key terms: women in development, formal and informal economic sectors, Mali, Niger, Bamako, Niamey, household, hearthhold, urban ethnography of African women

Abstract:

La présente étude porte sur les représentations sociales, c’est-à-dire les jugements, les opinions et les attitudes exprimés par des enseignants à propos de l’ordinateur. L’étude a permis de rencontrer 20 enseignants de deux lycées de Niamey. À l’aide d’entrevues individuelles, nous sommes arrivés à des résultats qui mettent en évidence des représentations sociales de l’ordinateur. Celles-ci se caractérisent par des attitudes positives à l’égard de cet objet social. Dans le contexte scolaire, l’ordinateur est perçu comme un outil qui favorise la modernisation de l’enseignement et qui permet ensuite de rehausser la qualité de l’enseignant. Des risques liés à l’introduction de l’ordinateur à l’école ont été aussi relevés par les enseignants.

Abstract:

AbstractIn recent years, Niger has gained prominence as a hub for the smuggling of migrants from West Africa to North Africa and Europe. Urged on by European concerns, Niamey has adopted repressive measures to contain such migrations in the region. These, however, have largely failed, and have yielded unintended and unexpected results, which challenge policy predictions. Drawing on extensive fieldwork, the article suggests that contradictory security imperatives have brought about the de facto regularisation of human smuggling. As a result, protection rackets sponsored by the state through patronage networks have severely limited the impact of externally sponsored measures to counteract irregular migration.

Abstract:

Considered as one of the most widespread zoonoses in the world and dangerous for human and animal health, brucellosis has been studied mainly in cattle and small ruminants but rarely in camels. The lack of data in Niger on this pathology in camels has aroused particular interest given the breeding method and the dietary habits of urban and peri-urban consumers. It is in this context that we conducted the first cross-sectional study on camel brucellosis in Niger, in the peri-urban dairy basin of Niamey. The general objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of camel brucellosis and the risk behaviours for its transmission at the animal-human interface. Thus, 275 serum samples and 75 camel milk samples were collected from 20 farms in 11 peri-urban localities of Niamey. The serum samples were analysed by 2 methods, namely the Rose Bengal test and indirect ELISA. The overall seroprevalence obtained with the serum samples was 4%. All 75 milk samples tested by indirect ELISA were negative. In addition, 30 camel farmers were surveyed to assess their knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding brucellosis. The survey revealed that 96.7% of the farmers were not aware of brucellosis, the species affected and the modes of transmission. Most of participants stated that camels were in frequent contact with sheep, goats, cattle, and other species. In case of abortion, the placenta and runt are handled with bare hands and sometimes buried or thrown away. All respondents consumed raw camel milk and stated that the milk sold is not pasteurised. These elements constitute risk behaviours for the transmission of this zoonosis and urgent measures should be taken. However, epidemiological investigations must be carried out continuously in order to monitor the evolution of this major zoonosis and to establish an adapted prophylaxis that takes into account this species, in order to protect the herd but also public health. Keywords: Camel brucellosis, seroprevalence, lacto-prevalence, KAP study, Niamey-Niger.
