    (Lead City University, Ibadan, 2024-12) Alexander Ailendesuan, UKHUREIGBE
    The vibrant youth population in Alimosho is presently facing serious unemployment situation and this has led to political and socio-economic vices which have snowballed to serious crimes including armed robbery, banditry, kidnapping, drug and human trafficking, cultism, insurgency, etc. and this is threatening national unity and cohesion. In the face of this insecurity situation, the attitude and modus operandi of the security apparatuses remain suspect and unsatisfactory. The study employed a descriptive research design, and used a mixed method of questionnaire and interviews. The theoretical review was anchored on Frustration-Aggression Theory postulated by Fererabend and Feirauben (1972). Four research questions and one research hypotheses were formulated to guide the study. Questionnaire was used to collected data from the youth that were involved in this study.

    Comparative Analysis of Post-Occupancy Satisfaction of Selected Residential Properties In Onitsha, Onitsha North L.G.A, Anambra State
    (Lead City University, Ibadan, 2024-12) Raji Taoheed ADEWALE
    This study conducts a comparative analysis of post-occupancy satisfaction across selected residential properties in Onitsha North Local Government Area, Anambra State. The aim is to generate insights that can inform better property development practices. The research utilizes primary data collected through two sets of questionnaires: one targeting household heads in private housing estates, and the other directed at the estates’ management departments. The study focuses on three purposively selected private housing estates: Onitsha GRA, Akpaka Housing Estate, and American Quarters Estate. A total of 280 questionnaires were distributed among the household heads, with 175 in Onitsha GRA, 53 in Akpaka Housing Estate, and 52 in American Quarters Estate, using a simple random sampling technique. Data analysis was conducted using frequency distribution, mean rating, Relative Adequacy Index (RAI), Relative Satisfaction Index (RSI), and Factor Analysis. The findings reveal that the majority of respondents were male (66.5%), aged between 31-45 years (60.85%), married (78.3%), and well-educated, with most households consisting of three persons (66.5%). Satisfaction with bathroom/toilet facilities showed a positive correlation with age, educational attainment, and income. Respondents rated potable water supply, burglary proofs on windows, number of bedrooms, and residence type as highly adequate, while privacy, housing costs, and fire safety measures were deemed inadequate. Management strategies were consistent across the estates, handled internally. Despite overall satisfaction with housing attributes, dissatisfaction was noted regarding noise levels, proximity to work, parking space, social activities, and access to shopping facilities. Key factors influencing satisfaction included managerial practices, utility adequacy, infrastructure, facility maintenance, and accessibility. Together, these accounted for 64.82% of the variance in satisfaction. The study concludes by recommending that future developments focus on addressing these deficiencies to enhance resident satisfaction and promote sustainable living in Onitsha North's private housing estates.
