Abstract

This study examines the food and feeding habits of Synodontis species in River Benue, with emphasis on seasonal dietary variations and overall fish health. Thirty-five specimens were collected from Mayo Ranewo, Ardo-Kola Local Government Area, Taraba State, and analyzed using standard morphometric measurements and gut content examination. Results indicate a predominantly herbivorous diet in the early months (August and October), marked by high intake of stems (43.7% and 48.0%) and seeds (42.1% and 42.6%), with limited consumption of animal matter such as insects and crustaceans. In November and December, a dietary shift occurred, with greater proportions of insects (11.7% and 23.5%) and crustaceans (8.4% and 15.7%) consumed. Stomach fullness was consistently high, with 90–100% of specimens containing food across all months. The length–weight relationship revealed negative allometric growth (b = 0.85; R² = 0.95), while the average condition factor (K ≈ 0.23) suggested generally poor health, potentially due to environmental stress or limited food availability. The findings underscore the adaptive feeding strategies of Synodontis in response to seasonal resource fluctuations and highlight the ecological need to preserve riverine health for sustainable fisheries management.

Abstract

This study examines the food and feeding habits of Hydrocynus species in River Mayo Ranewo, Ardo-Kola Local Government Area, Taraba State, Nigeria. Hydrocynus, commonly referred to as tigerfish, is a predatory freshwater species of notable ecological and economic value. The research investigates dietary composition, length–weight relationship, and condition factor to better understand the species’ ecological role. Seventy-five specimens were obtained from local fishermen and analyzed in the laboratory. Stomach content analysis revealed seasonal dietary variation, with Tilapia and catfish as predominant prey items, supplemented by decayed fish and fish bones. The length–weight relationship showed a strong positive correlation (R² = 0.99997), indicating isometric growth, while the condition factor (K ≈ 1.20) suggested a healthy population. The results indicate that tigerfish adjust their feeding strategies according to prey availability and environmental conditions. These findings contribute valuable information for sustainable fisheries management and conservation planning, supporting both ecological stability and the economic viability of inland fisheries in Taraba State.

Abstract

This study presents a comprehensive demographic and transportation analysis of students and staff at Bells University and Covenant University, examining commuting patterns in relation to socio-economic characteristics such as age distribution, marital status, and income levels. Results indicate that Covenant University has a higher proportion of younger respondents (38% aged 15–18) compared to Bells University (28%), with the majority at both institutions being single (77% at Bells; 83% at Covenant), reflecting a predominantly young, unmarried student population. Income data show that 56.5% of Bells staff earn above ₦114,000, while 44% of Covenant students receive allowances between ₦30,001 and ₦50,000. Trip analysis reveals that most journeys are under 30 minutes (69% at Bells; 76% at Covenant), with longer trips over one hour accounting for 17% and 11%, respectively. Car use is higher at Covenant, reflecting greater access to private vehicles, while walking and public transport use remain relatively low at both institutions. Trip purposes shift over the day, with initial trips primarily for educational purposes, especially at Covenant followed by increased shopping and recreational travel, suggesting a balance between academic and social activities. The findings highlight the need for targeted, sustainable transportation policies that address the mobility needs of university communities while enhancing campus accessibility and livability.

Abstract

Goat Weed (Ageratum conyzoides L.) is a tropical medicinal herb traditionally employed for wound healing, fever reduction, and inflammation management. This review consolidates evidence confirming its antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and wound-healing properties, primarily attributed to bioactive constituents such as precocenes, flavonoids, and terpenoids. Despite its pharmacological promise, the presence of pyrrolizidine alkaloids presents hepatotoxicity risks, underscoring the need for standardized formulations. Studies highlight its efficacy against various pathogens, its capacity to modulate inflammatory pathways (TNF-α/NF-κB), and its ability to stimulate collagen production during wound repair. Beyond therapeutic applications, A. conyzoides exhibits potential as a natural herbicide and biopesticide. Future research priorities include well-structured clinical trials, nanoformulation development to improve bioavailability, and biotechnological approaches for optimized production.

Abstract

Intestinal helminthic infections (IHIs) remain a major public health concern, particularly among school-aged children in resource-limited settings. This study examines the occurrence, risk factors, and socio-demographic determinants of IHIs among primary school children in Yorro and Zing Local Government Areas (LGAs) of Taraba State, Nigeria. A cross-sectional survey was conducted with 500 randomly selected pupils, and stool samples were analyzed using standard parasitological techniques. The overall prevalence of intestinal helminths was 75.7%, with Yorro LGA recording a higher rate (78.8%) than Zing LGA (72.7%). No statistically significant difference was observed between boys (76.4%) and girls (74.8%) (p > 0.05). The high prevalence underscores the urgent need for strengthened public health measures, including regular mass deworming, improved sanitation facilities, access to safe drinking water, and targeted health education for schoolchildren, parents, and teachers to reduce transmission and reinfection rates.

Abstract

Internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Nigeria face severe nutritional challenges, with pregnant women and children particularly vulnerable to malnutrition and its associated health risks. This study evaluates the effectiveness and impact of targeted nutritional interventions implemented in IDP camps across Nigeria, focusing on both immediate health outcomes and longer-term developmental indicators. Using a multidisciplinary assessment framework, the study examines comprehensive interventions designed to address maternal and child malnutrition within the context of a protracted displacement crisis. The results demonstrate significant improvements in maternal and child health outcomes following the implementation of nutrition-specific programs. However, persistent barriers, such as supply chain disruptions, cultural resistance, and inadequate sanitation infrastructure—continue to hinder program sustainability and reach. These findings highlight the need for sustained, multi-sectoral strategies that integrate nutritional support with broader health system strengthening, improved camp infrastructure, and culturally sensitive programming. The study offers critical insights for policymakers, humanitarian actors, and health practitioners seeking to enhance food security and resilience among displaced populations in Nigeria.

Abstract

This study investigates the contribution of development financing to poverty alleviation in Nigeria between 1990 and 2023, with a focus on the impact of education and health funding. Time series data were obtained from the Central Bank of Nigeria Statistical Bulletin. The Augmented Dickey–Fuller unit root test indicated that education and health expenditures were stationary at first difference (I(1)), while poverty reduction was stationary at second difference (I(2)). Johansen cointegration results confirmed a long-run relationship among the variables. An Error Correction Model (ECM) was applied to assess the effects of development funding, revealing that government expenditure on education significantly reduces poverty in the long run (p = 0.0225 < 0.05), whereas health expenditure showed no significant short-run impact (p = 0.3210 > 0.05). The results suggest that a 1% increase in education expenditure leads to a 0.0731% reduction in poverty in the short run. The study concludes that development funding can substantially alleviate poverty when resources are efficiently managed and productively invested. It recommends effective implementation strategies and structural reforms in public spending to achieve sustainable poverty reduction in Nigeria.

Abstract

This paper explores fundamental applications of topological spaces and stereographic projection derived from the properties of the circle, employing key concepts such as continuous functions and homotopy theory. By examining the behavior of mappings and deformations within topological spaces, the study demonstrates how the circle serves as a foundational structure for understanding more complex topological constructs. Special attention is given to the use of stereographic projection in visualizing the relationship between the circle and the unit sphere, illustrating how these mathematical tools contribute to a deeper understanding of continuity and homotopy in topological analysis. The discussion offers a concise yet insightful introduction to the interplay between geometric intuition and topological formalism.

Abstract

This study investigates the fish species diversity of Tagwai Lake, Minna, Niger State, Nigeria, over a four-month period from August to November 2020. A total of seven fish species were identified during the study. Clupeid sierrathrissa was the most abundant, accounting for 4,780 individuals (43.30%), followed by Allestes macrolepidotus with 2,500 individuals (22.65%), and Oreochromis niloticus with 2,494 individuals (22.60%). Other species included Synodontis courteti (935; 8.47%), Clarias gariepinus (316; 2.86%), Mormyrus hasselquisti (13; 0.12%), and Labeo senegalensis (1; 0.01%). Analysis of sex ratios revealed a predominance of females in Tilapia, Allestes macrolepidotus, Clarias gariepinus, Clupeid sierrathrissa, and Mormyrus hasselquisti (ratios of 1:3, 1:7.3, 1:11.1, 1:5.6, and 1:2 respectively). Labeo senegalensis showed no female representation (1:0), while Synodontis courteti exhibited a slightly male-biased ratio (1.3:1). The study found that fish species diversity in Tagwai Lake is influenced by intensive fishing activities involving a variety of gear types, including different mesh sizes, traps, and hook-and-line methods. These findings highlight the need for sustainable fishing practices to preserve biodiversity in the lake ecosystem.

Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of solid waste management policies and their implementation in the Agege Local Government Area of Lagos State, Nigeria. Utilizing both primary and secondary data sources, the research employs descriptive statistics and analysis of variance (ANOVA) to evaluate respondents' socio-economic characteristics, levels of community satisfaction, and the predictive capacity of existing waste management policies. The demographic findings reveal that the majority of respondents are aged between 41 and 60, with a gender imbalance favoring males (60.3%). An unemployment rate of 17.9% highlights the need for targeted employment strategies within the area. A strong positive correlation (0.929) was found between the effectiveness of waste collection services and community satisfaction, indicating that improved collection significantly enhances public contentment. Key influencing factors include the professionalism of waste collectors and the level of public awareness regarding proper waste practices. The predictive model yields a moderate correlation (R = 0.413) and an R² value of 0.171, suggesting that 17.1% of the variation in policy implementation effectiveness can be explained by the studied variables. The study concludes that sustainable waste management in Agege requires comprehensive policy reform, increased public engagement, and improved service delivery. These measures are essential for enhancing environmental quality and public health across Lagos State.
