Abstract

The study assessed community participation in infrastructure delivery in peri-urban areas of Ogbomoso, Nigeria. The peri-urban areas in Ogbomoso were stratified into old and new peri-urban areas. Due to the nature of the study, the identified 103 Community Based Organizations [CBOs] were purposely selected for the study. Thus, a total of 103 questionnaire were administered comprising of 48 and 55 respondents in old and new peri-urban areas respectively with focus on the head of CBOs. Data collected were analysed using descriptive statistic such as frequency and cross tabulation. Findings revealed that socioeconomic and housing attributes of respondents varied in the two categories of peri-urban areas in the study area. Also, findings on the condition of available infrastructure indicated that only water supply and electricity were moderately satisfactory and this is evident in the new peri-urban areas. Additionally, there is a moderate level of CBOs involvement in infrastructure delivery, particularly in the repair, provision, and mobilization for maintenance of infrastructure. The study concluded that while water supply and electricity are somewhat satisfactory, significant improvements are needed in roads, waste collection, and drainage to meet community’s expectations. The study recommended that government should complement the effort of CBOs in the provision of infrastructure especially in the old peri-urban areas of the study area and other similar settings.
