Water availability in a Nigerian sub-catchment of River Niger and its implications for food security
This study aims at assessing runoff characteristics and water availability between 1955 and 2019 in the Nigerian sub-catchment of River Niger upstream of Baro, central Nigeria, and the implication for food security in the nation. The discharge regime of the sub-catchment is characterized by single peak, which occurs in September. The sub-catchment’s runoff coefficient ranged between 23% and 32% for the period 1955−1970; 9% and 22% for 1971–1990; …
Dynamics of inequality, poverty and sustainable development of Delta State, Nigeria
A socio-spatial perspective of multi-dimensional poverty in Delta state, Nigeria
Spatial Dynamics of Urban Poverty in Delta State Nigeria
This article analyzes the sociospatial dynamics of urban poverty with a view to untangle the spatial factors influencing the variations over space. A stratified sampling technique was adopted to administer a structured questionnaire of 2,521 head of household among the three Senatorial Districts of Delta State, Nigeria. There were uneven distributions of poor households. The F values for the one-way ANOVA for the observed spatial factors were sig…
Recent Trends and Patterns in Nigeria’s Industrial Development
This paper analyses recent trend and spatial patterns of manufacturing in Nigeria. In particular, the paper shows that industrial development in the country involved considerable artisanal crafts firms in the early stages and grew progressively in number over the years to large-scale manufacturing. The pattern of the distribution of manufacturing industries at the city level indicates that there is a marked concentration of manufacturing establis…
The Nature and Scope of Production Sub-contracting in Nigeria
This study analyses the nature and scope of production sub-contracting link ages in Nigeria. The basic concepts are integration and industrial linkage, and production subcontracting. Data for this study were collected from the 68 contracting firms among the 15 industrial estates/areas in the Lagos region. The study's finding shows that the dominant form of sub-contracting is speciality sub-contracting. The various products of sub-contracting amon…
