Abstract:
The study examined a time series analysis of marriage registration in Ilorin, Kwara State between (2000 – 2011). The data used was collected from the marriage registry, ministry of social welfare, Ilorin, Kwara State. Moving average, simple linear regression was used for the analysis. The result on-trend value clearly show that there is a steady decrease in the number of marriage from the second half of the year 2002 up to January 2003, and from there, there was a shape increase in the number of marriage.
Also, the trend of marriage contains seasonal variation, which has been smoothed by the moving average method. Thus, the trend value appears to follow almost identical patterns during the corresponding month of the successive years. This indicated that Christmas and New Year festivals have an influence on marriage as can be seen on the trend values.
