IMPLEMENTATION CHALLENGES OF NUSAF INTERVENTION

The findings on this study show that: often it''s claimed that intergovernmental organizations are good at reaching the poor. This claim has been heralded by government practitioners. The local people who were consulted indicated that although there were significant benefits to the poor, yet such levels of benefits were varied from communities to communities. Their analysis was premised on the lacking of adequate productive assets such as access credit, land, education services, never the less the NUSAF presence and support to the communities was widely appreciated by the communities living in the Sub- County. From the findings it was interesting to the researcher to know that NUSAF has not managed to put up strong and logical mechanisms to bring to the targeted group information about its operations which remains a challenge to the project implementation. Given that the main source of income is from agricultural produce, and the land available to the communities is that small, it is necessary to consider high yielding high value crops for food and income.
