From the time of creation till date, expect in the recent time, whom
have been seen generally especially by the male folk as second-class
citizens, more especially in the less developed countries.
This has led to various misconceptions and bickering between the male
and female group despite all efforts of women towards the development of
there various communities. Even when it is obvious that women are
taking the lead and vigorously help the spouses in executing various
developmental projects their activities are rarely appreciated.
The purpose of this study therefore was to conduct an investigation
into the contribution of Eku of the community development efforts of Eku
as a case study in the “involvement of women in community development
in Nigeria.” Specifically it is against this background that the
researcher set out six research questions and three-research hypothesis
to aid the study.
A total of 94 respondents were sampled to respond to the
questionnaire, which was the main research instrument. These were
distributed to the women who participate in economic Development through
their community development efforts in Eku. The responses by the women
were analyzed by the use of percentage.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
The study will place emphasis on the community development efforts of women in the economic development in Nigeria.
Community development involves some kind of co-operative actions
by every member of a particular community to improve the well being or
welfare of town members, Battern, R.T.R. (1957, p.8) in recent times,
there has been noticeable change in people’s community development as
the great provider. There is now remarkable awareness that the people
can now develop their community through their own efforts and with their
own resources, since the states or local government, government to
which people look upon her help could not attract enough revenue from
the federal government to come to their rescue.
It is against this background that people organized themselves
into groups for self-help activities in communities most of these
condition of their members and the community in general. Many areas
they focus their attentions include the construction and building of
rural road, schools, health centers, village halls, clinics, market,
garri processing machines, oil processing machines and so on.
In Ethiope East for instance with a particular reference to Eku
where most of these infrastruture are not available, women as vehicles
for community development have now found themselves providing some of
these amenities through their various groups. It is based on this that
the research sought to identify the extent those women groups have gone
in their development activities since their men are chiming to be at the
forefront of every development activities.
But if the recent development in the affairs and attitude of
women towards economics development are anything to go by them, I can be
in a better positions to appreciate the roles played by the recent
past. First ladies of this nation of Nigeria for example. Think of the
development initiatives and activities carried out by Mrs. Maryam
Babangida under the better life for rural women programmes. Recall the
activities of Mrs. Maryam Abacha under FEAP.
In the international forum, mention must be made of reputable
women like Imelda Marcus of the Philippines, Margate Ihatcher of Britain
Winnie Mandela of South Africa and recently modline Albright to mention
but a few.
Women natural are tender hearted, no wonder their roles in the
family are indispensable, those roles are variously carried are into
their immediate environment, hence they (women) are able to identify
easily those economic areas where their activities greatly affects and
enhance the lives of many. It is expect therefore that these work will
contribute its quota to the eradication of this nation that the place of
the women is in the kitchen, they deserve mush more positive
recognition then that as shall be revealed by this work.
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
The problem this study out to examine is the extent women in
Ethiope East with a particular reference to Eku Community have been
involved in community development, since literature an women and
development reviewed depicts women as the backbone of community
development.
The need there arise to discover how Eku women have tried to
accomplish this through their various projects and programmes. How
their efforts have enhanced the quality of life of Eku people in
general.
1.3 PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
The sole aim of this research is to study the various
contributions of Eku women to the community/economic development.
Because of this, the study has set out to investigation that issue with
the following aim:-
i. To examine the characteristics of females regarded as women.
ii. To find out the various community project(s) or programmes(s) embarked upon by these women.
iii. To find out their objectives for embarking on such project(s) or programme(s).
iv. To find out whether their activities promote hamper development.
v. To find out how the project(s) or programme(s) are being financed.
vi. To find out the problems the women encounter in carrying out their community development programme.
1.4 SCOPE OF THE STUDY
This study is intended to examine the various contributions of
women in Ethiope with reference to Eku in Ethiope East Local Government
Area of Delta State. The contribution made by women in other
neigbouring communities are however not be included.
Consequently, the study is going to focus on the various
project(s) or programmes(s) of women groups involved in community
development in Eku. The area to be studied are Igun, Samagidi, Sanubi
and Echi.
In each village, sample of all women groups that take part in
community development project(s) or programme(s) are to be studied. The
study specially will be find out the extent to which women have used
these projects or programmes in contributing to economic/community
development.
1.5 RESEARCH HYPOTHESIS
A hypothesis is an intelligent guess of the solution to the
research problem. A hypothesis may also viewed as a conjectural
proposition, an informed, intelligent guess about the solution to the
problem (Orjih, 1996. 145) the following are the research hypothesis:
Ho: The various community development project embarked by women do not bring new things.
Hi: The various community development projects embarked by women have brought new things.
Ho: Women do not encounter problems while carrying out the projects.
Hi: Women encounter problems while carrying out the projects.
Ho: The objectives of the projects are not well understood by other women in the community.
Hi: The objectives of the projects are well understood by the other women in the community.
1.6 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
Research is carried out because we want to solve a problem(s)
and if the problem is solved that means it will benefit those who are
affected by the problem, Ozo, Odo Anih, Ugwu (1999, p. 30).
It is clear that this that type of study never been made in some
community including Eku. Although the research is carried out to
fulfill an academic requirement it will also go beyond that scope
encouraging more meaningful and conscious development efforts on the
part of women.
This study will also well help to stimulate community
development department of Ethiope East Local Government Area of Delta
State to seek the opinion of women in planning any community
development. This will also serve as a guide to other researcher.
