| dc.description.abstract | The absence of appropriate public engagement, resource mobilization, project duration, and legal framework were commonly cited as the reasons for disparity in Embakasi South constituency when it comes to national government constituency-funded projects. The purpose of this study was to examine the affect of national government constituency-funded initiatives carried out in Nairobi. The objectives of the study are to ascertain the effect of involvement, to determine the effect of resource mobilization, investigate the effect of time, and the effect of the legislative framework on the execution of these projects in the Embakasi South Constituency. The theoretical framework for this study was anchored in project implementation theory, Stakeholder Theory, and resource-based theory. This study utilized a descriptive research design. The target population of 166 composed of 10 national government officials, and Sub County Accountant, 95 committee members, 59 beneficiary stakeholders, and the manager of NGCDF in Embakasi South Constituency. A sample of 83 was used. The study employed a stratified random sampling method. The study utilized primary data, encompassing both qualitative and quantitative data. Data was collected using questionnaire and Interview schedule, SPSS software was used for data coding and analysis. Data was presented in tables. According to the findings, there is a positive association between the influence of public participation, resource mobilization on implementation. The study established that there is a positive significant association between influences of project and association between influence of legal framework on implementation of national government constituency funded projects in Embakasi South Constituency. The R-Squared is the proportion of variance in the dependent variable which can be explained by the independent variables. The R-squared in this study 57.2% of implementation of national government constituency funded projects in Embakasi South Constituency. The researcher concluded that while there is a perception among respondents that the mere availability of resources might not impact project implementation, specific challenges related to the acquisition of physical resources are acknowledged. The study recommends that various institutions involved in decision making on CDF should develop and implement comprehensive strategies to enhance community engagement throughout all phases of project development, including identification, design, implementation, and project closure. The study recommends that there is need for future researchers to determine effectiveness of monitoring and evaluation of both government and private sector projects in Kenya. | |
