Fruits and vegetables have numerous health importance but can act as vehicles in the transmission of foodborne diseases of public health importance. This research examined the presence of parasites and microbial organisms on fruits sold at Otuoke community, Ogbia Local Government Area, Bayelsa State, Nigeria using six fruits types, including pineapple (Ananas comosus), cucumber (Cucumis sativus), lime (Citrus aurantiifolia), garden egg (Solanum aethiopicum), guava (Psidium guajava) and orange (Citrus sinensis). The parasites were concentrated by sedimentation and were examined using a light mi

Abstract:

The objective of this paper was to examine the rainfall and temperature trends in Ogbia Local Government Area (LGA) Bayelsa State, Nigeria from 1993 to 2023 by obtaining a 30-year dataset from the Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMet) using the SARIMA model, which combines seasonal and non-seasonal components to capture periodic variations effectively. The results revealed a significant increase in annual rainfall from 1993 to 2023, with an annual trend of +15.86 mm/year. Rainfall ranged from 2,252.9 mm in 2020 to 4,658 mm in 2021, with an average of 2,962.31 mm, showing notable interannual v

Abstract:

Crude oil spillage in the Niger Delta region has led to significant environmental degradation and health concerns. This study investigated the levels of heavy metal contaminants (lead, cadmium, chromium, Iron, and Cobalt) in top-soil, sub-soil, and groundwater at Ibelebiri, Ogbia, Bayelsa State, where there are indices of crude oil spillage. Samples were collected from three locations A, B, and C with C as the control. Collected samples from these locations at the topsoil, sub-soil, and water were analyzed using Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) and results were then compared using WHO stan

Abstract:

How is the oil extractive industry affecting the livelihoods of women in the Niger Delta? This study explores the nature of the oil extractive industry in Nigeria and its impact on the livelihoods of women. The paper further focuses on the role of civil society in reconciling the interest of the oil industry and local economy of women in the Niger Delta. Relying on primary and secondary data as well as feminist theories, the study examines the case of Ijaw, Ogbia and Ogoni women, who have traditionally relied on fishing and farming as major means of income.
