Like comparing 'apples' and 'pears'.....the stats get 'k-leg'

Gateman in Nigeria......@CBN

Recent statistics by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) have indicated that Anambra topped the list of states where married women use traditional contraceptives to control childbirth, with Yobe having the lowest figure at 0.3 percent.

This is contained in NBS’ demographic statistics for 2020 posted on its website on Sunday in Abuja.

The statistics showed that 98.1 percent of married women in Yobe did not use any contraceptives in the year under review.

It categorised the birth controls into traditional contraceptive methods, modern methods, and those not currently using any contraceptive at all.

NBS said that at the national level, the total number of women not using contraceptives to prevent childbirth was 83.4 percent, while those using the traditional method of contraceptives was 4.6 percent with the modern method standing at 12.0 percent.

Sokoto State at 97.7 percent follows Yobe in the category of women not using contraceptives with 0.2 using traditional methods, while 2.1 percent use the modern method.

The report said, however, that the Total Fertility Rate (TFR) for the year 2018 was 5.3 percent, indicating a decrease from previous years.

It added that women in the age group 25 to 29 had the highest fertility rate, while women aged 45 to 49 had the lowest rate.

The report noted, however, that the total national birth registrations between 2017 and 2019 stood at 18.46 million with 2017 accounting for 5.03 million, while in 2018, it was 6.58 million with 2019 recording 6.83 million.

At the state level in 2017, Kano had the highest registered live births with 415,598, while in 2018 and 2019, Borno recorded the highest having 863,592 and 879,524, respectively.

On the other hand, Bayelsa recorded the least total national birth registrations with 220 in 2017; 234 in 2018, and 199 in 2019.

The report indicates, however, that most of the birth registrations were done in urban areas with 63 percent in 2017, 59 percent in 2018, and 62 percent in 2019.

On the statistics of recorded deaths, NBS disclosed that burial or other means of deceased disposal was 38,727 between 2017 and 2019.

Giving a breakdown, it said that the total number of deaths registered in 2017 stood at 15,153 but was reduced to 13,329 in 2018 and further reduced to 10,245 in 2019.

By gender categorisation, the NBS said that 9,555 male deaths were registered in 2017, 8,842 in 2018, and 7,066 in 2019 while 5,598 female deaths were registered in 2017, 4,487 in 2018, and 3,179 in 2019.

In furtherance to the compliance of Imo State Traditional Rulers Acts Number 6 and as amended in 2021 and as part of his strategies in restoring peace, unity of purpose and stability in rural communities Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State has issued Staff of Office to 51 elected traditional rulers of ancient autonomous communities, in replacement of their dead traditional rulers and having fulfilled some statutory obligations with a charge on them to be guided by the tradition and culture of their people.

The Governor also advised them on the need to always stand on the side of truth and justice in the discharge of their duties and to be traditional rulers over everybody in their communities. Earlier, the Governor met with the families of the three traditional rulers from Njaba and Okigwe Councils who were killed by bandits last year.

The deceased monarchs were Eze Sampson Osunwa, Eze Edwin Azike and Eze A.E. Duru Eburuo all from Njaba Council while the fourth monarch from Ihitte Ihube in Okigwe was Eze Paul Ogbo. He regretted the circumstances the monarchs were killed, describing their death as a big loss to their families, communities and government.

The Governor used the occasion to call on politicians to desist from using bandits to terrorise Imo people and said government must show concern about the monarchs who were killed because they were among the best in the State. He later handed over Cheques he called “palliatives”to the widows of the slain monarchs as well as to other traditional rulers who survived the bandits attacks but with harrowing experience.

Performing the Staff of Office ceremony at the Sam Mbakwe Expanded Executive Chamber Government House, Owerri, over the weekend, Governor Uzodimma reminded the new monarchs that they are not just the custodians of their communities culture and tradition but represents the people and government of the State before the outside world. He said apart from ensuring that unity and peace reign in their areas, the security of lives of their people should be part of their primary responsibility.

Governor Uzodimma therefore enjoined them to help fish out the bad eggs in their communities whether operating as bandits or unknown gunmen and ensure that they report the activities of the bad people in their domain to government for appropriate action. He warned that he will not hesitate to dethrone any monarch who chooses to rule over his people from outside his community or makes himself a “visiting Eze.”

The Governor reasoned that the traditional rulers cannot be effective in carrying out their duties, be it tradition, culture, security, peace and unity when they operate from outside, “because security starts with the love of the people.” “When one is not close to his people there is no way he will know their problems and how best to tackle them.”

On the side of Government, Governor Uzodimma said his administration has taken every necessary measures to improve the security situation in Imo State and that what happened in the past has taught everybody a lesson on how to be proactive in order to nip every identified security breach in the bud.

To that effect, he urged all the traditional rulers, both the old and new ones, to always identify any security breach and inform government promptly. He also advised them not to be scared or abandon their people that elected them as their Eze “because of security concerns.”
On politics, Governor Uzodimma reminded the monarchs in Imo State that ‘’whereas the Nigerian Constitution guarantees everyone freedom of association, that of the traditional rulers have been bridged.’’ He therefore appealed to them not to allow desperate politicians to contaminate them with their sweet tongue.

On infrastructural development in their domains, the Governor charged them to be involved in the various projects located in their communities as initiated by government. He advised them to learn how to work in synergy with the leadership of their Town Unions so as to develop and protect their communities, reminding them that they are both the custodians of their people, their investments and facilities in their communities.

He reminded them of his government’s decision to approve N1billion for the renovation of health centres in the 305 INEC Wards in Imo State and charged the monarchs to take ownership of the facilities and ensure the projects succeed. In the same vein, the Governor reiterated the decision of his government to reconstitute Development Centres, where Town Union Presidents will be made automatic members.

“You are ambassadors of your people and the government of Imo State,” he said and prayed for God’s guidance in the monarchs operations, asking them to, above all, “have the fear of God in whatever they do.” In a vote of thanks by the traditional ruler of Umuhu Omuma in Oru East LGA, HRH Eze Dr. Clement Ikechukwu Okonkwo on behalf of the others, he thanked God who using the Governor to make the day a success.

Eze Okonkwo pledged their loyalty to the Government of Imo State and their readiness to ensure there is peace and development in their various communities. He also expressed their gratitude to their people who trusted them enough to preside over their affairs as their traditional rulers by electing them. The event was witnessed by the Deputy Governor, Prof Placid Njoku, the Acting Chief Judge of Imo, Justice Theresa Chikeka, other key government functionaries, the leadership of the traditional and religious institutions in Imo as well as the kits and kin of the newly honoured monarchs.
