Abstract of The Challenges and Prospects of Poverty Alleviation Programmes in Lagos State a Case Study of Ikeja Local Government Area
There has been a high and growing incidence of poverty in Lagos State in the last two decades. Overtime, what can be discerned in the various approaches to poverty alleviation in Lagos State is that the State is determined largely by making a choice between growth promoting policies and poverty focused strategies. The reality however is that, the two approaches are not after all mutually exclusive. They are complementary to the extent that the former serve only as a long term the latter constitute an immediate and direct shot at the poverty itself.
This research work is designed to examine clearly the challenges and prospects of poverty alleviation programmes in Lagos State. Ikeja local Government was the case study. The various definitions and categories of poverty, causes of poverty, profile of poverty in Nigeria and programmes in Nigeria among others were discussed.
