This paper examines the formal procedure followed in allocating residential land and describes the people that benefited from the allocation in Katsina State within the period 1999 – 2018. The research employed the use of qualitative data on formal procedure of residential land allocation and quantitative data on the number and socio-economic characteristics of the beneficiaries. Primary data were sourced from Katsina State Ministry of Lands and Survey and the state’s Urban and Regional Planning Board through interviews with some officials. Applicants’ files were used to gather socio-economic and demographic data of the beneficiaries. Systematic sampling technique was employed, to select a sample of 374 files. Qualitative data were aggregated, summarized and the formal procedure of land allocation was presented in diagram and narrative forms. Frequencies and percentages were used to analyse the quantitative data. It is found that the procedure for residential land allocation in the area followed eight steps and many paper works are involved in the process. It is observed that there are many delays encountered in the procedure especially at the stage of the issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy. The process is skewed in favour of the politicians and political office holders which received 70 % of the total allocation. It is recommended that the allocation should adequately consider the low-income categories of people. The procedure of land allocation should also be smooth and seamless so as to reduce unnecessary delays. L'attribution légale des terres est faite pour assurer l'équité dans la répartition des ressources foncières pour le  éveloppement socio-économique des citoyens d'un État.

Mohammed","doi":"10.54222/afrigist/jgst/v2i2.1","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.54222/afrigist/jgst/v2i2.1","url":null,"abstract":"Fuelwood consumption has for a while been assumed to be the ultimate cause of forest degradation, and if not checked could lead to forest disappearance. This is owed to the fact that over 90 per cent of the population of Sub-Saharan Africa is dependent on the resource as a source of energy. Hence, this paper investigates the conformity of the major fuelwood source regions of Northern Nigeria to the Fuelwood Gap Theory. The objectives are; to examine the source regions' vegetation cover and identify the regions' major activities. The methods employed include triangulation of field surveys, Maximum likelihood supervised classification and Post Classification comparison. On average 77 trees were cut down for every 3600m2 of farmland. From the maximum likelihood supervised classification result, six major classes were identified namely: forest, water body, woodland, farmlands, built-up area and bare surface. From the post-classification done, Dukku Forest Reserve lost 132.9km2 of the forest class from 1990 to 2018. For the same period, the forest class in Falgore Game reserve increased by 173.36km2. Lastly, in Rafin Chiyawa Forest Reserve the forest class decreased by 276km2 from 1990 to 2018. The major activities at the sites include agriculture, sand mining, fuelwood collection and rearing of animals. This indicated that the Fuelwood Gap Theory does not hold for the three Forest Reserves. It is recommended that The Fuelwood Gap Theory be modified to look at forest degradation from a fuelwood consumption-agricultural activities nexus. \u0000ResumeLa consommation de bois de feu a longtemps été considérée comme la cause ultime de la dégradation des forêts qui, si elle n’est pas maîtrisée, pourrait entraîner la disparition des forêts. Cela est dû au fait que plus de 90% de la population de l’Afrique subsaharienne dépend de la ressource comme source d’énergie. Par conséquent, cet article étudie la conformité des principales régions sources de bois de feu du nord du Nigéria à la théorie de l’écart de bois de feu. Les objectifs sont les suivants : examiner le couvert végétal des régions sources et identifier les principales activités dans les régions. Les méthodes employées comprennent la triangulation des enquêtes sur le terrain, la classification supervisée du maximum de vraisemblance et la comparaison des postes de classification. En moyenne, 77 arbres ont été abattus pour 3600m2 de terres agricoles. À partir du résultat de la classification supervisée selon la probabilité maximale, six grandes classes ont été identifiées, à savoir : forêt, plan d’eau, boisé, terres agricoles, zone bâtie et surface nue. D’après la post-classification effectuée, la réserve forestière de Dukku a perdu 132,9 km2 de la classe forestière de 1990 à 2018. Pour la même période, la classe forestière dans la réserve de Falgore a augmenté de 173,36 km2.

Three major suburban settlements of Ganaja, Felele and Zango were selected for this study. An inventory of residential development within the last ten years was made through a questionnaire survey of one hundred and forty-five households in the three sampled suburbs. Data were obtained on the socio-economic status of the residents, driving forces for location in the suburbs, and the characteristics of facilities. The study used both descriptive and inferential statistics, which revealed that a significant number of those who lived in the suburbs were of mixed social and economic status, constituting 49% and 51% for low - and middle-income groups respectively. The majority of the residents in the suburbs (79%) once lived in the adjacent urban area and moved to the suburbs within the last ten years. Results of the Relative Importance Indices (RII) indicated that homeownership was the most important reason given for location in the area. Furthermore, insufficient infrastructure and their performance constituted sources of dissatisfaction in the area. The ANOVA test revealed that the level of satisfaction with the performance of the facilities does not significantly vary across the suburbs of Lokoja. the study recommends that the government should implement a housing policy that will stimulate the easy house ownership for the residents of urban areas. \u0000 \u0000Cet article a examiné la motivation de l’emplacement résidentiel dans la banlieue de Lokoja, au Nigeria.

Understanding and finding the means to deal with conflicts related to the utilization of forest resources became an important research area under the Governance for Sustainable Forests related to the livelihoods programme. The study aims to examine the nature and form of conflicts over Bakabé, Dan Kanda and Kandamo classified forest resources in the Maradi Region. Data were collected through literature review, questionnaires and focus group discussions within villages around classified forests. The method of analysis applied involves descriptive and inferential statistics (Chi-square test). The research identified major types of conflicts as a farmer - farmer, pastoralists - farmers and agro-pastoralists; conflicts between farmers and village chiefs and conflicts between local communities and the forestry departments. There was a significant difference in the frequency of conflicts between seasons around Bakabé and Dan Kada classified forests with χ2-values of 15.53 and 9.20 which are all significant at 0.05 level. There is no significant difference in the frequency of conflicts between seasons in the Kandamo classified forest because the forest is not subjected to cropland contract. The effectiveness of both the traditional and modern mechanisms of protection is generally weak, with huge implications for sustainable development. There is a need for government at all levels to prioritize the management of conflicts over classified forests so that there will be a sustainability of crops and livestock productionConflicts for better livelihoods in the rural communities. \u0000 \u0000La gestion des conflits est un élément clé de la gouvernance forestière; il n’a reçu que peu ou pas de considération dans la plupart des réformes de gouvernance en cours en République du Niger.

Over recent decades, research has brought to light the importance of urban greenery and its role in sustaining the environment of cities and towns around the world. Urban growth in the Kano metropolis has been quite significant over a few decades and activities have been enhanced towards intolerable limits, making proper management of the outcomes of such activities near impossible; resulting in degraded environments. This growth is attributed to several factors which include an increase in population, rural-urban migration, unplanned settlements and increasing built-up areas. This continuous increase in urban population has put a lot of strain on existing infrastructure and the natural environment. This study examined the relationship between changes in land use land cover (LULC) and the implications on vegetation density in the Kano metropolis. Data used were sourced from Landsat images for 1998, 2002, 2013 and 2018 from which the Built-Up Index (BUI) and Normalised Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) were extracted and the Correlation coefficient analysis was carried out. Results of the correlation between NDVI and BUI for the periods of the study show there is a strong negative linear relationship between vegetation density and building density indicating that there has been decreasing vegetation density with increasing building density. The study recommends that Urban Policies should be developed towards encouraging urban greening as well as the enactment of strong laws to protect green areas. \u0000 \u0000Le développement urbain perturbe l’équilibre écologique en augmentant l’imperméabilité des terres et en diminuant la couverture végétale. Au cours des dernières décennies, les recherches ont mis en lumière l’importance de la verdure urbaine et son rôle dans la préservation de l’environnement des villes et villages du monde entier. La croissance urbaine dans la métropole de Kano a été assez importante pendant quelques décennies et les activités ont été renforcées vers des limites intolérables, rendant presque impossible une bonne gestion des résultats de ces activités; entraînant des environnements dégradés. Cette croissance est attribuée à plusieurs facteurs, notamment l’augmentation de la population, l’exode rural, les établissements non planifiés et l’augmentation des zones bâties. Cette augmentation continue de la population urbaine a mis beaucoup de pression sur les infrastructures existantes et l’environnement naturel.

The Maximum Likelihood Classifier (MLC) algorithm was used for classification. Post classification change detection technique was conducted using ILWIS 5.2 and later converted to shapefiles where it was imported to ArcMap 10.2 GIS software. The result of the classification was presented in tables, which were subsequently compared using the Post Classification Comparison (PCC) technique to estimate and compute temporal and spatial changes as well as the rate and area extent of changes between the four images. The result shows that desert encroachment has occurred in the study area at the rate of 5.65km2/yr over the 20 years. A composite Land Cover map and NDVI map of 2017 was created and superimposed with the localities within Dambatta LGA, where the settlements requiring intervention were then drawn out. It revealed that almost all parts of the LGA require intervention. . However, some areas have more serious land degradation issues than others.

The consequence of this is the increasing spate of conflicts between and among communities. In Nigeria like in most African countries, the individuals have strong attachment. This is so strong that they can go to war over even the smallest dispute on land. Despite the enactment of Land use Decree of 1978, Land use decree does not address the fundamental challenges that can avert land disputes. While some people hold large parcels of land beyond what they can effectively utilize, many are denied access to land. This is the basis of tensions in several communities and is contributory to the challenges insecurity everywhere in the country. A pro-poor land administration is anchored on the thesis that no matter how poor a person may be, he should not be denied access to land as a natural resource endowment to mankind. Access to land should be guaranteed for all, thus a pro-poor land administration agenda that will curb insecurity of land tenure, conflicts and disparity in access to land among different social strata is required. This paper examines the concept of pro-poor land administration strategy and how its adoption can help mitigate conflicts on land and thereby promote human and food security in the country for national development. It concludes that the existing land administration system in Nigeria needs to be revisited to forestall impending doom over land war in the near future in Nigeria. \u0000L’un des principaux effets de la croissance démographique incontrôlée dans la plupart des pays en développement, y compris le Nigéria, est la pression sur l’accessibilité à la terre. La conséquence en est la vague croissante de conflits entre et entre les communautés. Au Nigeria comme dans la plupart des pays africains, les individus ont un fort attachement. C’est si fort qu’ils peuvent entrer en guerre même pour le plus petit différend sur terre. Malgré la promulgation du décret sur l’utilisation des terres de 1978, le décret sur l’utilisation des terres ne traite pas des défis fondamentaux qui peuvent éviter les litiges fonciers. Alors que certaines personnes détiennent de grandes parcelles de terre au-delà de ce qu’elles peuvent utiliser efficacement, beaucoup se voient refuser l’accès à la terre. C’est la base des tensions dans plusieurs communautés et contribue aux défis de l’insécurité partout dans le pays.

Moreover, between 300 and 500 m, there is a decrease of 52.46 % in the spatial cover of unbuilt space and a spatial expansion of urban areas by 49.17 %. Around the temples between 100 and 500 m, the spatial cover of urban areas decreased by 15.42 % and that of unbuilt spaces increased by 13.48 %. In contrast, the spatial cover of undeveloped areas around sacred places within 100-300 m increased by 3.23% and the area of urban areas decreased by 3.94 %. Within the 300 and 500 m radius, there was a 2.45 % decrease in the area of unbuilt space and a 1.74% expansion of settlements. The structure of the space shows that settlements and open spaces have the highest rates of spatial occupation around sacred places.","PeriodicalId":277751,"journal":{"name":"AFRIGIST JOURNAL OF LAND ADMINISTRATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130233788","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
