“…The devastation caused as a result of oil spillage is one of the adverse effects of hydrocarbon exploration [13], which can lead to environmental degradation [14], soil depletion [15], water contamination and atmospheric pollution [16], all these affect the inhabitants and the environment where such oil exploration activities are carried out [17]. The effects of oil spill go beyond the loss of fertile land and have led to increase in pollution [18], sedimentation in streams and rivers, which clogs these waterways and causes declines in fish and other aquatic species [19].…”

During emergency response to oil spills incident accurate information is required in order to reduce the risk associated with oil spill disasters. This study focuses on Environmental Sensitivity mapping for sustainable environmental clean-up and contingency planning along the 3.0 km of AGIP pipeline at Asemoku in Delta State, Nigeria. Geographic information systems (GIS) techniques were used to create an Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) map in the study area. A 2018 Google Earth Satellite imagery of the study area was downloaded, and landuse/cover classification scheme comprising of Vegetation, Farmland, Water Body, Wetland, built up area and Bare Surface was adopted. Existing categorization, ranking and classification of the inland habitat were adopted and used to create a Landuse/cover Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) map, while the buffer zones of 100 m, 200 m, 300 m and 400 m were adopted. In the ArcGIS 10.8 environment, the landuse/cover map was generated and buffer distances of 100 m, 200 m, 300 m and 400 m were created on the landuse/cover map to ascertain the features that are vulnerable and could be at risk in the event of oil spill. This study established that the Natural Vegetation areas are the most vulnerable and sensitive feature as a result of their size along the created buffer zones. Findings from this study thus provide insight into the most sensitive land-use/land-cover, in the event of a spill or emergency oil spill clean-up response.

This study examines the impact of female economic participation on sustainable development and the moderating role of governance in African countries using data between 2002 and 2022. Despite the significant contributions of women to the economy, they remain underrepresented in economic governance. The study employs the two‐step dynamic system GMM approaches with fixed effects and Driscoll–Kraay standard errors, and to address potential endogeneity. The findings reveal that while female economic participation positively affects sustainable development, poor governance weakens this relationship, suggesting a substitutive rather than complementary role of governance. The study establishes a governance threshold of 2.667, on a scale of 0–5, above which female economic participation significantly enhances sustainable development. Subregional analyses indicate varying impacts, with governance complementing female economic involvement in Central and Southern Africa but acting as a substitute in East, North, and West Africa. These insights underscore the need for enhanced governance and targeted policies to empower women and promote sustainable development across the African continent and the need for incorporating context.
