Abstract

Infant survivability remains a critical public health concern, particularly in regions where access to healthcare and essential knowledge about child-rearing practices are limited. Parental education, especially for mothers, has been recognized as a vital tool in improving infant health outcomes. Educated parents are more likely to adopt healthy practices such as exclusive breastfeeding, immunization, and the early recognition of danger signs in infants. This study examines the impact of parents ‘educational status on infant mortality in Wukari Local government area of Taraba state. The paper used a descriptive, cross-sectional survey research design. A sample size of 400 respondents was selected from the total population of 374,800 using the Tare Yamane formula. Questionnaires were distributed to 400 respondents who were randomly selected across the wards in Wukari LGA. Interviews were also conducted with six key informants to complement the data gathered from the questionnaires. Responses from the questionnaires were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Quantitative data were analyzed while outlining the key point presented by the key informant. The study revealed that Infant mortality rates are positively correlated with parents who have neither formal nor secondary education, indicating that low levels of education may be a contributing factor to lower infant health outcomes. The study recommended that increasing access to high-quality education, especially for women, through community programs and adult literacy initiatives is essential to giving parents the information they need to make better health decisions and take better care of their children.

Abstract

Illegal immigration remains a pressing concern in Northern Nigeria, driven by economic, political, social, and environmental factors. This study explores the causes, prevalence, and socioeconomic implications of illegal immigration in the region, highlighting its impact on labour markets, national security, social cohesion, and economic development. The study adopted the social conflict theory by Karl Marx as its theoretical framework. The research utilizes documentary evidence, analyzing existing reports, scholarly articles, and policy documents to provide a comprehensive understanding of migration trends and their consequences. Findings reveal that economic hardship, political instability, porous borders, and historical ethnic ties significantly contribute to irregular migration. Northern Nigeria serves as both a source and transit region, with migrants from neighboring countries such as Niger, Chad, and Cameroon entering the region for employment opportunities in agriculture, trade, and informal sectors. The prevalence of illegal immigration is exacerbated by weak border control mechanisms, corruption, and inadequate legal frameworks. The study further identifies key socioeconomic challenges, including job displacement, pressure on public services, security threats, and human rights violations. While illegal immigrants contribute to informal labor markets, their presence often leads to tensions with local populations and governance difficulties. The paper recommends strengthening border security, enhancing regional cooperation, creating legal migration pathways, and promoting economic development initiatives to address the root causes of migration. A holistic approach that balances enforcement with humanitarian considerations is essential for effective migration management. Future research should focus on data-driven policy interventions and cross-border collaborations to mitigate the adverse effects of illegal immigration while harnessing its potential benefits.
