ABSTRACT

The study was designed to assess the role of government in poverty alleviation in Kachia L.G.A, Kaduna state. From the NAPEP register, 52 participants and 52 non-participants were randomly selected. Data were collected through the use questionnaire and analysed, using descriptive and inferential statistical tools. Findings indicate that majority (67%) of the participants were male while 33% were female. About 40% of the participants were of the age range of 44-53 and 62% were married with 60% having a household size range of 5-8 persons, with about 38% having trading as their major occupation. The mean income of NAPEP participants increased from N106,556 before the intervention to N249,675.00 after the intervention (134%). Income of the non-participants increased from N98,351 before the intervention to N120,127 after the intervention. The level of living of participant increased from N77,523 before the intervention to N233,268 (200%) after the intervention as a result of participation in the programme. It was recommended that NAPEP should be left to continue irrespective of the administration that initiated it. NAPEP should set up a special monitoring and recovery committee to monitor the disbursed loan transactions right from when it is disbursed to when it is due for repayment.
