CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Throughout history,
human societies have
continually strove to develop in
one way or the other, although at different place and
measure the development is
a universal phenomenon
commonly linked with human
beings.
Everywhere, man
is faced with the task
of rising above his
material limitations through
providing for his needs
and improving the quality
of his material well
being and efficiency of tools.
In this study, the concept
of development is
taken to the sequence of
changes that is aimed as improving
the socio-economic, political and
cultural life of a people.
In
this content of this work,
community development may be
defined as operationally as the
conscious self help
without the assistance
from the government
for the provisions
of certain basic socio-economic infrastructure that basic necessary or
required in the raising
of the standard of living
of the people while
discouraging rural, urban
drift.
In Nigeria, communities in different
parts of the country have
over years engaged themselves
in several development activities
in an attempt to provide some basic infrastructure that
would make life
more meaning to the
members of their communities. They no longer wait or depend
solely on their local, state or
federal for provision of the development community
has become popular, in
recent times communities
has become increasing more, and the unability
of the various government to provide
for them, all their needs.
This trends of the development
further call on
various local institutions in the
private sector, in other
words non-government organization
(NGO) to supplement
government efforts in
development of their localities.
The
complementary role played by
there community based association (CBA) such
as community friends, age grade unions, woman
associates , member of city
club in the Agulu e.t.c have
created some positive
impact on provision
financial assistance skills and provisions specific services.
Our major concern
here is the communities based associates with
participation reference to Agulu in
Anaocha local government area in
Anambra state.
It is
also patient to
mention that he role
gab in condition of living
existing between the rural and
urban area has posed as services
challenge to success
government n Nigeria. The
methods adopted to bridge
the gap have
even proven more
pragmatic as there
has never been a conscious on
the best approach to
use in developing.
This study is an
attempt to took at a typical
rural area in Anambra state (Anaocha local
government area) and to see how it has been
trying to surmount its development problems.
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
From
the colonial era to the present attempt
have been made to develop
the rural areas
with titles or no
results. This the concept
how has been written and
discussed in recent
years. Majority of rural area
live in sub-standard houses
poor environmental and
unplanned rural communities.
But the most
strictly features is infrastructure such as hospitals, schools pipe-born water electricity, industries, good
roads and recreational facilities
are generally lacking
in most Nigeria
rural areas. Further more,
the problems of unemployment, the
wide different income between intellectual
and manual labour of which is
certain cases have reinforced each other cases have reinforced each other to result in
massive rural urban
migration especially among young
productive age grade group.
In Nigeria at various levels,
government have recognized the problems
suffered by rural residents has
not only been a top of discussion
among lanners, academicians
pollution and the press, but also has
been a subject of significant attestation.
Since
government alone cannot provide
for all the needs of rural
communities, it has
intensified its dall on
the rural communities non- government organizations and
individuals to engage in self-
help project as a way of complementing government efforts. Most
government f federal , state and local levels in this respect
have provided marching grant
to assist communities and completed
self help projects.
To a large extent, this
new orientation is rapidly
yielding some good results as
most rural communities
in recent times embark on various
viable projects that accord hem a face new lease of life. Today a good
number of communities in Agulu
Anaocha local government
area in Anambra state
have in recent times
especially from the 1970’s
became development conscious as various
organizations begin to emerge
and successful embarked
on several development projects
in the area. Indeed
community based on associations
constitute a potential force
in the development other their
communities.
1.3 PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
The purpose of his study
is to ascertain the impact of Community Base Association (CBA) in the
development of communities, particularly Agulu,
Anaocha Local Government Area in Anambra State.
This work aims therefore, to example the
contributions of Community Based Association (CBA) in the developmental process
of rural communities in Agulu, it is also aimed at enlightening the public on
the need or importance and role (CBA) in
buying a face lift to the standard of
living of rural communities development programmes by the association and the
implementation of such programme Vis-a vis their effects on the development and
welfare of the inhabitant of the Agulu people.
1.4 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
The study is intended to asses the role
of community based association in rural development. The importance of this
study lies in the hope that its findings
would help to correct the enormous impression that rural people are opposed to
change the result which would also serve as panacea in bringing about a change
in policy formulation and implementation which fails to incorporate the local
people.. it is hoped that the solutions, if properly adopte4d would lead to the
speedily development of the rural areas and make Nigeria neglect majority to have a
taste of good living.
1.5 SCOPE OF THE STUDY
Scope
of study covers the general evolution of the activities of community
development actors in the areas of rural development in Nigerian local
government and Agulu in Anaocha local government in particular. The analysis
will cover the impact of community based association and community development
committee (CDC) as agents and ling between the various communities and
government in rural development.
The work focused on the former and its
community development programmes such as roads, schools, health facilities,
water projects, electricity supplies.
In the main research, it took at project
aforementioned and the role of community development in Agulu forms essentially
the basis of basis of this study. However, the role of the communities
concerned is also of paramount importance in the study because realize are
considered in the approach which depend largely on the community themselves.
1.6 RESEARCH QUESTIONS
It
is purpose of this research work address and provide answers to the following
question
1. What
are the contributions of good/bad people in community based association?
2. What
are the role of community base association in community development to make
life more meaningful to members of their communities.
3. What
are the contributions of community based association
1.7 DEFINITION OF TERMS
i. DEVELOPMENT;
The
term development means different things to different people depending of the
ideological beliefs on the issue in question and the period.
Perhaps Billy Dudley seems to pose the
basic question about the meaning of the development, when the said “ to ask
about unemployment” what has been happening to inequality.
Having seen the confusion inherent in
attempt that we adopt a single definition as our working definition in this
study. Nwogu observes that development therefore is the ability of a man to
extract the natural and human resources for the betterment of the entire
society.
The definition here, according to him,
development is a multi dimensional process involving changes in structures.
Attitudes and institutions as well as the in quality and eradication of true
development. True development must means the development of a man unfolding and
realization of his creative organized and discipline which is the moving force
behind the socio-economic transformation of society.
ii. RURAL AREA
Available
literature on rural areas revisal that populations is the main characteristic
that differentiate rural from urban area especially in the develop countries.
Base upon this single characteristic (which is inadequately) Nigeria
classifies any area with a population of 20,000 people and below as rural
areas. Using the 1963 census figure of 55.5 million of people, over 44 million
is 80% population in Nigeria
are rural dweller.
Population is not only character feature
of rural areas in Nigeria,
is includes also indicators such as depreciation, degradation and deprivation.
iii. RURAL DEVELOPMENT
In terms of conceptualization more often
than not, we often go back to the united nations definition of development
because it contains some useful element that are relevant to the third world
countries. Community development is thus defined by the U.N.
The process by which the effort of
people are with those of government Authorities to improve the economic, social
and cultural conditions of the community to integrate these communities into
the life of the nation and enable them contribute fully to national progress.
It was also defined at the Cambridge summer
conference of Africa Administration held in 1984.
A movement designed to promote better
living for the whole community with the active participation and if possible on
the initiative is not forth coming spontaneously by the use techniques for
arousing and stimulating it in order to secure its actions interest responses
to the movement.
The distinguishing factor in community
development is that, it signs a move by the people themselves in effort to
improve their level of living through self help projects.
iv. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
ASSOCIATION (CDA)
C.D.A
according to Steve Tamuno constitutes democracy and development. In other
words, they are the vehicles through which the issues and aspirations of the
people or issues affecting their lives are articulated, harnessed and executed.
v. NON GOVERNEMENT ORGANIZATION
(NGO)
Non governmental organization is
organization that is not by government, understand the community where exist
the government agencies. They usually constitute the catalyst for the self-help
in rural communities as they make effective use of traditional customs value
and authority structure.
vi. COMMUNITY BASED ASSOCIATION
(CBA)
This is the third man group within the
non-governmental sector, which operates in various forms and otherwise known as
people association, grass-root association, self-help or membership support
association etc. community based association refers to a broad or self help
process and institutions with different structure and varying capacities and
characterized by voluntary participation mutual benefits and accountable
leadership.
vii. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
COMMITTEE (CDC)
This is a group of elected official of a
community for the purpose of co-ordinating the self help development of that
community.
Membership will include representatives
of improvement Union, development association,
age group, woman and youth organization traditional rulers and community heads.
