The secondary data will come as a review of documented materials, while the primary data will be obtained with the help of questionnaire and oral interview, and will be administered to the ruralites with the help of the researcher, who will help the uneducated ones to fill in the boxes by explaining the questions to them. A total of 382 questionnaires will be distributed precisely to the residents of Iwollo Oghe community. The data collected will be tabulated and analyzed using percentages.
