My Biography

The water storage in Shika dam, Zaria-Nigeria is often adversely affected by sedimentation because of severe soil erosion in headwater catchments. The HEC-HMS model is a commonly used tool to simulate streamflow and sedimentation of various processes of the hydrological cycle, depending majorly on their characteristics. The objective of this study is to apply HEC-HMS…

Cancer has been a menace to public health. Among all cancers, breast cancer is the most common in women. This research investigated the preventive effect of tomato and carrot supplementation in wistar rat administered breast carcinogen, Dimethylbenz-[a]-anthracene (DMBA). Tomato and carrot were dried under shade and pulverized. Forty-eight female rats were randomly distributed into 8…

Malaria has been among the dangerous diseases not only in Nigeria but Africa as whole. Artemisia crop has an artemisinin, which is a strong anti-malaria drug. However, despite its importance in curing this disease, it is only produced under rain-fed but hardly produced under irrigation in Nigeria. The experiment consisted of three levels of irrigation…

It is evident that water table depth is one of the most important physical features of a cropped field, and that its measurement is vital for optimum management. The scarcity of such data in developing countries could be attributed to high cost of commercially available sophisticated devices and their limitations due to their deployment for…

Kaolinites are the most widely recognized clay minerals found in the topsoil complex and can occur as a result of weathered silicate rocks and mineral. This research investigates the adsorption of oil using kaolinite and its characterization. This is achieved by determining the effectiveness of kaolinite as oil adsorption material and feasibility of kaolinite re-adsorption…

With emerging participatory trends in governance and sustainable development, African countries are systematically adopting agricultural reforms as part of their national development agenda better than before. Nigeria is not left out in this new found love for agriculture as an international relations tool for private partnership for international financial and technical support. However, it is…
