(A Case Study of Minna, Niger State). (1999-2007) Authors: Makinde, Joseph Kolawole Abstract: The study focuses on the financial implications of disposing the waste generated in an urban area of Nigeria. It aims to establish if proper attention has been devoted to the waste disposal system. Minna the capital city of Niger state is divided into five districts namely: Minna, Tunga, Chanchaga, Maitunbi and Bosso, out of which three districts namely: Minna, Chanchaga and Bosso were randomly selected to test the following hypotheses formulated- that (I) the cost of waste disposal in the selected district has no significant relationship with the volume of waste generated, (ii) there is no significant relationship between the population of selected districts and the volume of waste generated per year. A statistical package (SPSS) of Simple linear regression was employed to determine the relationship between the variables. The result of the findings shows that volume of waste generated and cost of waste disposal depend on each other with coefficient of determination (RSQ) value of 99.7%. and the population of the selected districts has significant relationship with the volume of waste generated in the year under review with RSQ value of 55.5%. From the findings, it is concluded that the cost of waste disposal depends largely on the volume of waste generated by the teeming populace. It is therefore recommended that since most of our cities are plagued with mountains of refuse dumps, State government should partner with private environmental protection organisations in the disposal of refuse. This can implemented through the PPPs initiative. 2008-02-29T00:00:00Z http://irepo.futminna.edu.ng:8080/jspui/handle/123456789/8944 Title: Funding of Environmental Activities in Delta And Edo States of Nigeria (1992-1997) Authors: Oke, Abulganiyu A; Makinde, Joseph Kolawole Abstract: The public sector remains the most important source of funds for environmental activities in Nigeria. The study aims to establish if proportional attention has been devoted to the environmental sector. Summaries of the official annual budgets of the States considered in this study constituted the research data, which was analysed using simple linear regression and analysis of variance. It was found that on the average, 93% of variations in the environmental sector budget were due to variations in the total budget of the States. Conclusion were drawn that funding for the environmental sector had been dictated by the level of funding available for the States concerned as a whole, with estimated values of environmental budgets being 10%- 15% of total annual budgets. It was recommended that the consistency in the trend of financial allocations revealed by this study should be maintained and improved upon. Private sector participation (PSP) through Private Financed Initiatives (PFI) in areas such as water supply, sewerage, and housing could also be explored. 2 Makinde, J.K (2006) Social Infrastructure Development in Nigeria: The Roles of Public and Private Sectors (2006). First Annual Conference of URP, SET, FUT, Minna This paper discussed some of the contemporary issues on social infrastructure in relation to the roles of the public and private sectors in infrastructure deliveries in Nigeria. it explained the effort being put in place directly and indirectly to achieve one of the three aims of the millennium development goals (MDGs) which call for improvement in infrastructure deliveries by 2015 in order to conform with international ethos where multi-national exploit the gains of decentralization, privatization, and sustainability of public infrastructure to the disadvantage of developing countries. It further pointed out that the financial responsibility undertaken by the Nigerian government to execute social infrastructure could be lessen if the private sectors are encouraged to participate in the infrastructure development. In order to achieve this, it was suggested that appropriate policy should be instituted at federal, state and local government level which could be assessed on four criteria (I) access to the infrastructure services (ii) quality of the infrastructure services, (iii) affordability of the infrastructure services (iv) financial sustainability of infrastructure services. The Nigerian governments political and logistic supports will be necessary to shore-up the efforts of the emerging private sector participation. 2002-01-01T00:00:00Z
