Analysis of Out-Mobility of Population in Gombe Local Government Area, Gombe State By Umar Yusuf Abdullahi, Abubakar Abdullahi & Abdussalam Abubakar Abstract This study examined the effects of out-mobility on households in Gombe L.G.A. Relationship between household and the out-migrants, reasons, destinations, as well as household’s perception of out-migrants in the study area, were studied and analyzed. Purposive sampling technique was used to sampled 317 households in the study area. Descriptive statistic was used to analyze data obtained from the field. It is evident from the results; out- migration has both positive and negative influence on households in the study area. Most of the households (84%) in the study area were happy about their members moving out because of the remittances received from them, only a few households (16%) considered out-mobility of their members as a waste because they are not benefiting from their movement. Other results show most out-migrants (18.3%) from Gombe L.G.A migrated to the nearby regions and most of them (54%) move out from Gombe L.G.A to secure jobs in their destinations, it is also evident that sons (30%) and husband (26%) are more migratory from Gombe L.G.A to other places than daughters (21%) and wives (9%). Hence, the study recommends that out-mobility should be encouraged due to its positive contribution to the social and economic wellbeing of the households of Gombe L.G.A, while those families or households experiencing some of their members wasting their lives outside or they are not contributing anything positive to the family they should be discouraged for out-mobility, and if there is any help the family can render to them morally, politically or economically to empower them and attract them to stay at the origin they should do so. Key Words: Out-mobility, Household, Out-migrant, Origin, and Destination.
