This is caused by lack of employment, capital to establish businesses to earn income, cultural factor, tradition and religion.Women are supposed to be players in assisting their households and in economic growth and development of any nation. Unfortunately, they are prevented as a result of poverty.Microfinance institutions were established for the past decades to help women in fulfilling their dreams of getting out of poverty.These programs of microfinance institutions have expanded across the globe, to provide the financial needs of poor women who do not have the capacity to access funds from traditional banks.This has been possible due to the intervention of nongovernmental organization and support of governments.This support contributes to economic growth and development of their households, communities and the country at large.The main aim of this study is to examine poverty alleviation in Northeast Nigeria, mediation of performance and the moderating effect of micro finance training.
