Abstract

Bringing to a layman's understanding the ideas, issues and concepts of important healthy living conditions and strategies is no doubt an ever impressive and effective pattern of solving health related issues especially in developing countries like Nigeria.

In this part of the world, complications and deaths arising from poor health education awareness has been tremendously on the increase until lately when sensitization campaigns and proper health education on killer diseases and related complications were given a good fight by organisations like United Nations, UNICEF, World Health Organisation and governments of various countries to mention but a few.



In this research work, one of such major issues- maternal and child health care-which have recorded the highest death rates in history of health was treated in detail though with a local scope. The study was carried out with reference to a location -Abeokuta, Ogun state Nigeria.



This research study like every other is made up of five chapters and contains all necessary sections needed for careful data analysis and discussions.

A sample population of Yoruba married women between the ages of 18-49 years and the sample size of one thousand (1,000) respondents was drawn from these set of respondents in both rural and urban areas. The areas covered were five local government areas including Abeokuta the state capital.



Interview and questionnaire formats were used to gather data from the respondent using formulated questions derived from the title of the research work.The data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics which includes frequency and percentages; Chi-square test of association was also done to determine the difference in the various views of the respondents.
