Both primary and secondary data were used for data collection. Purposive sampling technique was adopted in selecting a total number of sixty -six event centres. Both descriptive(charts and tables ) and inferential statistics(multiple regression analysis) were used to analyse data collected to achieve the set objectives. results obtained indicate that there were two major categories of event centres; attached (54%) and detached(46%) and with respect to ownership, privately owned event centres are more than 63% while those owned by institutional and religious bodies came at 37%.the result of multiple regression analysis showed that accessibility, cost of land, security, parking lot, internal floor space occupied, distance to the tarred road and fence contributed (67.2%;p<0.05) to all the factors influencing the distribution of event .

    (Centre of Human Settlement and Urban Development, Federal University of Technology Minna, 2015-06) Tunde, Afolabi Monisola; Afolayan, Ganiyu Popoola; Adeniyi, Enekole Esther
    House rent has always been guided by principles of demand and supply, This Study analyzes trends in rent in Ilorin metropolis. Specifically, identifies the factors influencing increase in house rent; it also determines the effects of change in rent on household size and on the inhabitant in the study area. The twenty political wards within were used and five hundred (500) tenants were sampled systematically. The period covers twenty years (1992-2011). Focus Group Discussions (FGDS) were organized in different locations with tenants, landlords. caretakers and estate agents. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data gathered. The Trend reveals an increase over twenty year period considering rental classes. However, the low income group experienced highest rate of increase. Spearman's rank correlation coefficient revealed there is a significant relationship between income and rent paid. Factors that determine increase in house rent are population growth/demand , location, type of house, building materials, facilities in the house. environment and basic amenities available in neighborhood. Based on these, recommendations made include government assistance in providing more housing units at affordable rate. Since increase in population has been identified as one the factors influencing house rent, rural areas and medium-sized towns should therefore be developed so as to curb rural-urban migration.

    The importance of improving resiliency in tourism sector in Nigeria cannot be over emphasized. This is especially germane in hydro-tourism industry where tourist destinations are often located in areas of intrinsic scenery that are exposed to hazards which can transform into disasters. Among the hazards that can develop in hydro-tourism destinations include flooding, high winds, sea level rise, swell waves and electrical shocks which can occur through switches, cables and circuits, especially when such destination is an hydro-power project. Myriads of vulnerabilities in hydro tourism destinations which can transform into disasters when not properly managed in the country have been categorized into three groups in this paper following Lindell, et. al.(2006) while different techniques of preventing such vulnerabilities from transforming to disasters were discussed
