| dc.description.abstract | This thesis aims to assess the general performance of the Directorate of Food Roads and Rural Infrastructure (DFRRI) in Soba Local Government. Area of Kaduna State from 1986 - 1990. Primary data were obtained using designed questionnaires, while secondary data were obtained from Government publications, relevant text books and research works, Journals and News-Papers. Results obtained were worked out in percentages from which discription and inferences were made. A sample population of 300 comprising 150 farmers, 100 Project staff and 50 petty traders and artisans was used for the purpose of obtaining the primary information. Results obtained show that Agricultural inputs and tools (chemicals pesticides, improved crop varieties, tractors, irrigation pumps) as well as extension services, were obtained from sources other than the Directorate. Social infrastructure including, potable drinking water and access roads were also not provided by the Directorate. The foregoing has led us to conclude that DFRRI has not succeeded in its rural transformation mission. Therefore the first working hypothesis that; Non commitment to obligations by policy makers and implementors on rural development creates inefficient and ineffective execution of such programmes, is accepted. The result also accepted the second working hypothesis because there was no evidence of mobilization of the rural dwellers for developmental purposes by the Directorate. Recommendations were proposed for efficient and effective performance in future. | en_US |
