| description | This study focused on the contributions of Fadama III Project to the development of Giwa Local Government Area (LGA) of Kaduna State. Rural areas in Nigeria and Kaduna in particular are characterized by high level of poverty coupled with grossly inadequate or non-existent basic economic and social infrastructure. In an attempt to promote rural development, the Fadama III Project was established as a build-up on Fadama I and II Projects. Against this backdrop, the study attempts an assessment of the contributions of
Fadama III to the development of Giwa LGA of Kaduna State with specific focus on the
Small Scale Community-owned Infrastructure Component (SSCOI). The study was anchored on the CDD approach which places beneficiaries in the driver’s seat of development. It adopts the survey research design and was conducted in selected wards of Giwa LGA. Beneficiaries, Fadama officials and Giwa LG staff constituted population
of the study. Data were generated from mainly primary source through the administration
of questionnaires and conduct of focused group discussion. Findings of the study revealed
that the SSCOI projects executed include irrigation scheme; feeder/access roads and
drainages; boreholes and concrete wells; market stores and stalls; and public conveniences. The projects were found to have contributed significantly to the development of Giwa LGA as beneficiary communities have witnessed increased ease of movement of persons as well as agricultural produce; improved water supply and
drainage system; and increase in agric. produce as well as their sales. However, problems
of counterpart funding, intra-group conflict of interest regarding choice of project to
execute, developing good LDPs and poor financial services were found to be obstacles. |
