摘要

对外援助是过去几十年来在世界事务中占据中心地位的一个概念。在发展中国家,外国援助是否有助于减少/消除贫困也存在争论。但是,本文认为,发展中国家应该利用这种便利来改善其公民的生活。因此,本文讨论了外国援助对尼日利亚拉各斯州减贫和/或根除计划的影响。它审查了关于外国援助和贫穷的文献以及外国援助的性质及其在拉各斯州减少贫穷的战略。它还调查和分析了外国援助如何影响拉各斯州的消除/减少贫穷方案。该研究的方法是探索性的,利用了主要和次要的数据收集来源。数据的主要来源是通过访谈和政府文件收集;而次要数据则是从教科书、图书馆搜索、学术同行评审期刊文章和互联网上收集的。对收集的数据进行内容分析。本文发现,在扶贫项目中有效利用外援存在着严重的挑战,其中包括:挪用资金和缺乏关于谁应该从该方案受益的统计数据。该文件建议政府加强体制框架,以确保充分的监督和部署培训中心,以容纳更多愿意有效监督会议的人。

The Impact of Foreign Aid on Poverty Reduction / Alleviation Programmes in Lagos State , Nigeria
Foreign aid is a concept that has taken centre stage since the past decades in world affairs. There have also been arguments whether or not foreign aids serve a useful purpose in poverty reduction/eradication in the developing nations. However, this paper believed that such facility should be utilized by the developing countries to improve upon the lives of their citizens. This paper, therefore, discusses the impact of foreign aid on poverty reduction, and or eradication programmes in Lagos State, Nigeria. It examined literature on foreign aids and poverty as well as the nature of foreign aid and its strategy for poverty reduction in Lagos State. It also investigated and analysed, how foreign aid has impacted poverty eradication/ reduction programmes in Lagos State. The methodology for the study is exploratory that made use of both primary and secondary sources of data collection. The primary sources of data were collected through interview and government document; while the secondary data were collected from textbooks, library search, scholarly peer-reviewed journal articles and internet. The data collected were content analysed. The paper found out that there are serious challenges militating against the effective use of foreign aid on poverty alleviation programmes, amongst which are; misappropriation of funds, and lack of statistics on who should benefit from the programme. The paper recommended that the government should strengthen the institutional framework to ensure adequate monitoring and deployment of training centres to accommodate more people who are willing, to effectively monitor the sessions, among others.
