This project is an attempt to record for posterity, government's effort at alleviating poverty among millions of our people through finance administered bank. Poverty is a well known phenomenon, especially in developing countries. It stares us in the face. It is a condition of lack of funds, powerlessness, dependence on others for daily living and for almost every good things of life, as it is also a lack of the necessary wherewithal to make ends meet. Yet, poverty is little documented. Perhaps, the fear of poverty accounts for the paucity of literature on this all important
subject until recently when international organizations like the World Bank and the United Nations Development (UNDP) started showing interest in human development statistics which are also relevant to eradicating the phenomenon of poverty among nations.
