Researches

Completed

  1. 1992-1994 Education for AIDS Prevention in a Nigerian Old city (Ibadan). Research Grant from American Foundation for AIDS Research (AMFAR) A community-based AIDS education program funded by the American Foundation for AIDS Research (AMFAR) was carried out in some traditional Areas (Oje, Agugu, Aremo) of Ibadan to raise knowledge, influence negative Attitude and change risky sexual behaviour among residents of these areas.  A pre and post-test design was adopted.  The interventions consisted of community Mobilisation, training and drama.  Results showed those residents in experimental Areas gained significant knowledge on AIDS but no significant changes occur in Sexual behaviour.
  2. 1997-1999 The Effects of Education of Reproductive Health Knowledge, Contraceptive use and sexual Behaviour of Adolescent Female Hawkers in Motors-parks in Ibadan, Nigeria.  Grant from the Union for African Population Studies, Dakar, Senegal.This study assessed the effectiveness of peer education on the reproductive health knowledge and behaviour of adolescents working in four motor-parks in Ibadan, Nigeria.  The study consisted of a baseline survey of 210 hawkers, training of 40 peer educators in the experimental two motor-parks, and a follow-up survey.  Findings showed that although experimental group had superior knowledge of reproductive health and AIDS, the intervention did not have any significant impact on sexual behaviour of the subjects.
  3. 1998-2001:  Controlled Trial of Peer Education for AIDS Prevention among Female Apprentice Tailors in Agbowo, Ibadan, Nigeria.  Grant from the Center for AIDS Prevention Studies (CAPS) San Francisco, USA. This experimental study tested the efficacy of peer education on knowledge of AIDS and sexual behaviour among female apprentice (FA); randomization of shops into experimental and control groups, training of 35 peer educators selected from the experimental shops, and follow-up survey.  The results showed that the intervention led to significant increase in knowledge of AIDS, reduction in risky sexual behaviour among the experimental groups compared to the control.
  4. 1999-2001: Sexual Coercion in Adolescents in Ibadan, Nigeria.  Grant from the World Health Organization’s Special Program of Research, Development and Research Training in Human Reproduction. This research explored the perceptions of adolescents to sexual coercion.  The project consists of three components. The first adopted a qualitative approach and used a narrative workshop to explore the perceptions of adolescents.  The second phase is a survey of 1025 subjects on their personal experience of coercion.  54% of the subjects reported at least one coercive behaviour; 4.3% had been raped.  In the last phase of the study, eight rape victims were interviewed in-depth.  The implications of the research are being discussed.
  5. 2001-2002: Training of health workers in the University College Hospital on HIV/AIDS Prevention. Grant from the AIDS Prevention Initiative in Nigeria (APIN). The main aim of the study was to provide different categories of health workers including doctors, nurses and pharmacist the latest scientific information about HIV/AIDS especially as it relates to the perinatal transfer of the virus from an infected mother to her baby.  The project is a collaborative effort of the College of Medicine, The Harvard School of Public Health and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, USA.  A total of 450 health workers were trained.  A pre- and post-test were conducted to determine the outcome of the training on health workers.
  6. 1999-2001 Prevalence of gender-based violence among Young Female Hawkers in three cities in South-western Nigeria. Grant from the United Nations Fund for Women (UNIFEM). A total of 345 young female hawkers from six motor-parks in South-Western Nigeria were interviewed to determine the nature and extent of violence against them-particularly sexual harassment, economic violence, forced marriage and involuntary withdrawal from school. Beatings and childhood sexual abuse were reported. The most common perpetrators of violence were drivers or bus conductors and neighbours and these acts occurred mostly in the motor-parks and at home. About a quarter of the sample had experienced attempted rape while about one in 20 had actually been raped. The rapists were spouses and boyfriends. Most victims did not seek redress.  Violence is a major problem affecting this population.
  7. 2000-2002 Evaluation of reproductive health interventions for the out-of-school youths in Oyo state, Nigeria. Grant from the Rockefeller Foundation. In an attempt to address the reproductive health needs of the out-of-school adolescents, an innovative intervention research was implemented for this group of persons in Ibadan South East and Ibarapa Local Government Areas of Oyo state. The study consisted of baseline data collection, interventions designed and implemented by coalition committees and a follow-up survey. The results show that overall the intervention had positive impact on the knowledge that adolescents had about reproductive health and HIV/AIDS. There was also a significant decrease in the proportion of respondents who had sex in the previous month at baseline and post-intervention.
  8. 2003 to 2006 Evaluation of training workshops on research ethics for scientists and Clinicians in the College of Medicine, University of Ibadan, Nigeria. Grant from the Fogarty International Center. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the outcome of training workshop on participants’ knowledge of research ethics and ethics competency. A total of 133 professionals drawn from the College of Medicine and University of Ibadan attended three rounds of workshop for three days. The contents covered were history of research, principles of research ethics, informed consent, functions of IRB, ethics of research design, confidentiality/obligations of researchers, ethical issues in HIV treatment/vaccine trials, conflicts of interest and scientific misconduct. A pre-post test was completed by the participants. Consenting participants also completed the same questionnaire one month after the workshop. The results of the study showed an increase in knowledge of international guidelines and principles of research ethics. 

In Progress

  1. 2006 to date Effects of peer education on use of voluntary counseling and testing services among young persons in Nigeria. Grant from the Joint Clinical Research Centre, Kampala, Uganda  
    The purpose of the study is to determine the effects of peer education on use of VCT services among both secondary school students and apprentices in Egbeda and Ibadan North Local Government Area of Oyo state. The project consists of a baseline survey of apprentices and students from six secondary schools and approximately 100 apprenticeship workshops. The interventions consist of training of peer educators recruited from schools and apprenticeship workshops. A follow-up survey had been conducted. The data analysis of the data is ongoing.  

Dissertation and Thesis

MPH Dissertation

  1. 1989-1990: Socio-cultural practices that may favour the transmission of AIDS in a rural Yoruba community.This MPH dissertation utilized qualitative techniques namely, key informant interview, focus group discussion and participant observation to identify and describe the nature of cultural practices that may favour the transmission of HIV/AIDS in Ago-Are, a rural Yoruba community in Oyo state Nigeria. The results showed that female and male circumcision, extra-marital sexual relationship during the traditional post partum abstinence, are the practices with great potential for transmitting the virus in the community. 

PhD Thesis

  1. 1996-1999: Effects of Educational Intervention on Knowledge, Attitude and Practices of Reproductive Health among Selected Secondary School Students in Oyo State, Nigeria. This quasi-experimental study compared the relative effects of three interventions, namely, peer education alone, instructional methods delivered by teachers and a combination of the two on the reproductive health knowledge and sexual behaviour of secondary school students in three rural Local Government Areas of Oyo state. The results show that over all, the combined intervention had greater positive impact on  knowledge, attitude and sexual behaviours of students. Peer education alone was however found to be superior to instructions alone on these variables.
