The direct counting was conducted for seven days of the week in th…
Stakeholders' perspectives of public participation in landuse policy

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate and identify the facilitators and limitations to have effective public participation (PP), and suggest how the practices can be improved in Nigeria. Design/methodology/approach Using Nigeria as a case study, this paper involves interviews of various stakeholders, in…
Environmental hazard and health risks associated with slaughterhouses in Ibadan, Nigeria
Activities in slaughterhouses result in complex multidimensional health risks and environmental pollution due to the high levels of organic waste produced that directly and indirectly can affect the health of residents living in the vicinity through the pollution of surface and underground waters as well as reduced air qualities. This research examined the environmental hazard and health risk associated with slaughterhouses in Ibadan, Nigeria. Da…
Place–time correlation of robbery incidents in metropolitan Lagos
This article investigates the correlation of space and time in the clustering of robbery incidents in metropolitan Lagos. Analysis was carried out on 781 selected robbery incidents in 2013. Using the Mantel index to correlate place and time intervals for pairs of robbery incidents, the results show that robberies are respectively concentrated in residential areas, transport nodes and public places, peaking at midnight during weekdays. The results…

In 2009, 138 cases were officially recorded, of which 22% and 76% occurred in Rivers and Edo states …
