Research Aim • The aim is to explore the perception through which
neighbourhood markets are contested among local
residents of diverse ethnic groups residing in rural
community, as a precursor to establish effective
theoretical planning models.

Research Questions
• ( RQ1): Does the residents’ perception of markets differ among
the three ethnic groups?
• ( RQ 2): Are there any socio-cultural relationships based on
place attachment between residents and the market?
• ( RQ 3): Are there any variations in the usage, satisfaction and
sharing of market among the three ethnic group residents?
• (RQ 4): Do the market possess the good physical condition
and attributes that enable communal sharing among the ethnic
groups?

Objectives • (RO1): To investigate the perception of market spaces among
the three majority ethnic groups residents within the
community.
• (RO2): To establish socio- cultural relationships based on place
attachment between residents of the three ethnic groups and the
market in the local community.
• (RO3): To investigate the variations , level of utilization and
satisfaction degrees with market among the three ethnic
groups.
• (RO4): To identify physical attributes and characteristics of

PLEMINARY REPORT ON FOCUS GROUP INTERVIEW
11
Introduction
Plethora of research work have adopted qualitative techniques in open
space studies, such as in-depth interviews (Burgess et al 1988; Ho et al,
2005; Krenichyn, 2006), however, fewer studies have adopted focus
group method. Focus groups offer several advantages such as (i) cost
and time effective (ii) foster interactive research (iii) enables researchers
to investigate sensitive issues ( Cameron,2005; Goss,1996; Morgan &
Krueger,1993); (iv) provision of rich descriptive data (Krueger,1994), (v)
facilitation of easy accessibility to “hard to reach populations”(Wolf et al,
1993). (vi) Respondents’ words could be quoted appropriately when
reporting results (Cameron, 2005; Krueger,1994; Morgan and
Krueger,1993; Stewart and Shamdasani,1990).

Preliminary findings from Focus group interview
(Content analysis)
22
Questions Findings
Research Objective 1
What is your own interpretation of Neighbourhood market?
Yorubas: An heritance gotten from forefathers. Igbos & Hausas: An economic centre.
Research Objective 2
Why residents are so much attached to the present location of Neighbourhood market? And do they wish to be relocated somewhere else?
Long habitation (100 years) at
the market square formed the
basis for the residents’
attachment. NOS’s poor
planning and lack of essential
amenities has affected its
effective utilization capable of
enhancing ethnics’ interactions
and social bonding. They are
not willing to be relocated,
rather preferred the present
market space to be improved
upon.

Questions Findings
Research Objective 3
Is there any perception
of conflicts, dominance
and miss-use of
Neighbourhood market
among ethnic groups
during interaction? If
yes, how do you resolve
the conflicts or did not
bother to resolve it?
(i)There are conflicts among the ethnics, however, the conflicts are resolved by the community leaders and market leaders ( “Iyalojas” and “Babalojas” ) (ii)It was evidently identified that there exists a communication barrier (language differences) among the ethnics which has been the major challenge faced.( this could be addressed through the creation of social interaction arenas within the market square, where people can often time gather to associates.

Questions
Findings
Research Objective 4
Have you ever been involved in (or heard) situation where residents (individual or groups) get involved in planning and design as well as improving the quality or condition of Neighbourhood market? ( summary)
(i)Findings revealed that resident’s opinion, views, aims, suggestion and objective in decision making at various stages of open space planning has not been practising . If this is done it will go a long way in resolving open space planning and problem currently faced in Nigeria.
