    COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF ECOLOGICAL FOOTPRINT OF URBAN AND RURAL HOUSEHOLDS IN MINNA EMIRATE OF NIGER STATE, NIGERIA
    (Journal of Inclusive cities and Built environment., 2021-10-25) Abdrazack, N.T.A.; Medayese, S.O.; Matins, I.V.; Idowu, O.O.
    Nigeria is an unsustainable country due to an ecological deficit arising from the excessive utilization of natural resources. Resources are consumed more than their bio-capacity. Lifestyle and variation in the needs of households have exerted demands on the natural resources and eventually on the global environment. This research therefore aimed at estimating the Ecological Footprints of the average individual in a household in the urban and rural areas of the Minna region in Nigeria. It identifies the types of resource consumption; the impact of consumption on the EF and compares the EF of both about the level of sustainability. Data were collected employing primary and secondary sources for the study. A total of 400 households was selected for the study. Questionnaire administration was employed to collect the data and random sampling was employed. The data were analyzed through explanatory and inferential statistics. The result of the study shows that the EF of Minna and Maikunkele were 1.10 and 0.892 gha. Households require an average of 0.91 and 0.74 planets to sustain their living standard and generate 6.2 and 4.3 tonnes of CO2 annually. 9 and 6 factors influence EF. It is recommended that the lifestyle of the household in the Minna region has to be modified to reduce pressure on environmental resources and the emission of GHG for sustainable development.

    Are Holidays or Festive Periods to blame for Seasonal Spikes in Road Traffic Accidents in Nigeria?
    (Environmental Technology & Science Journal, 2023-12-05) Morenikeji, W.; Musa, H.D.; Micheal, E.; Medayese, S.O.
    Over the years, citizens have characteristically viewed festive and holiday seasons in Nigeria as a period when there are spikes in traffic and road crashes. These spike in road crashes have been ascribed to some spiritual or mystical powers which often possess the road ways especially the intercity or highways within the country. The paper examined the impact of holiday and festive periods on the recorded road traffic accident cases in Nigeria for a period ten years (2012 – 2021) using weekly data obtained from the Federal Road Safety Corps Office, the research adopted exploratory data analysis conducted on the Road Traffic accidents data suggests that the data is not normally distributed (Shapiro-Wilk = 0.94, p = .002) hence Kruskal-Wallis test -a non-parametric statistics equivalent of Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was adopted for test of difference. The aim was to isolate the actual period when road accidents occurred most between ordinary day, non-festive holiday and festive holiday periods. National holiday and festive dates were marked on the data sheet and a hypothesis was tested. A Kruskal-Wallis test was conducted to compare the median ranks of three groups: Festive Holiday, Non-holiday, and Non Festive Holiday. The test revealed a significant difference among the groups (χ2(2) = 11.02, p = .004.). Post hoc tests using the Dunn-Bonferroni method showed that Festive Holiday (FH) and Non-holiday (NH) groups had a significantly different median rank (KW = 58.38, Mdn_FH = 220, Mdn_NH = 180, adj.p = .007). Similarly, the Festive Holiday and Non Festive Holiday (NFH) groups had a significantly different median rank (KW = 84.16, Mdn_FH = 220, Mdn_NFH = 177.5, adj. p = .017). However, there was no significant difference in median rank (Mdn) between Non-holiday and Non Festive Holiday groups (KW = 25.77, Mdn_NH = 180, Mdn_NFH = 177.5, adj. p = .948). The study concluded that most road traffic accidents occur during festive holidays.

    Involvement of Community-Based Associations towards Sustainable Settlement Infrastructure in Ilorin, Nigeria
    (Involvement of Community-Based Associations towards Sustainable …. CHSMJ, 2021-05-04) Kolawole A. S.; Sanni, L.; Popoola, A.A.; Akogun, O.; Medayese, S.O.; Adeleye, B.M.
    To reduce the national housing deficit in Nigeria, numerous government housing estates were constructed and allocated for people to reside. Government housing estates in Nigeria are now characterized by gross discomfort due poor state of the infrastructures. This study appraised the involvement of Community-Based Organisation in the provision of infrastructural facilities in Mandate Housing Estate, Ilorin, Kwara State. Questionnaires were administered to officials of the Kwara State Housing Corporation and committee members of the CommunityBased Organisations in the estate. Findings reveal that communal involvement led to the provision of culverts, parking facility, walkway, and streetlight while the utilities and services provided by associations also include electric pole, electric transformers, waste disposal, deepwell, borehole, and security. The involvement strategies in community development projects by the associations include resource mobilization, special levy, physical participation, and payment of the regular levy. In contrast, factors influencing residents' participation in community projects include affordability to pay, the influence of neighbours and households, and the suitability of projects. Among the recommendations made for improved infrastructural facilities through community-based organisation are upgrading of amenities in the housing schemes, the connection of the schemes to public water mains, spatial control and review of developmental plan in the estates and housing schemes.
