Sampling
A sample of 6000 respondents were selected using a combination of probability proportional to size and equal size sample i.e (mix Design) in appreciation of the spread and peculiarities of the state inhabitants and landscapes.
The entire twenty (20) Local government Areas (LGAs) in the state was divided into two Zones: ( North comprising 9 LGAs and South having 11 LGAs) with sample size of 3052 respondents and 2948 rspondents respectively.
The first level of stratification comprised the Local Government Areas, with each of them divided into Political Wards (between 10 and 25).
These wards formed the second level of stratification.
No deviation from sample design
At both levels of stratification ie Local government Areas (LGAs) and Political Wards,
the Response Rates were 100 percent respectively.
No weight computed for this version

Survey methodology used a technique of hand-held pocket computer where interviewers entered responses of the heads of households while on the field. Before the commencement of the fieldwork, the pockets PCs were loaded with the copy of the final questionnaire using the Perseus Survey Solutions 6 software which was used to design the questionnaire.
The software was used to automate the entire process of data capture, evaluation, validating and storage of the data. It permitted fast processing of data and timely release of results. Data were synchronizing from Pocket PC to laptop every day of the survey week. As part of data quality control, editing was carried out to ensure that the household name, address and Questionnaire number was correct. Also automatic correction was done for some selected fields by the Perseus Survey Solutions application based on some validation rules within the system.
The dataset were later transfered /exported to SPSS format in order to allow for disaggregated analysis at Local government and ward level. Frequency tables and some list of crosstabulation were generated
