But this study is a particular and pragmatic approach to the nexus between state and infrastructure like road electricity and health consequently, we explores the reciprocity between the state and development of infrastructure. The research questions were (1) Has the Nigeria state provided adequate and motor able roads for its citizen, (2) Has the Nigeria state provide constant electricity supply for the teeming population, (3) To what extent has the National health policies of government provided improved the quality of health for Nigerian citizens. Our methods of data collection was documentary which enabled us to use secondary sources of data like the documentary materials.The study was predicated on the structural functional analysis or structural functionalism as a theoretical framework. We adopted content analysis as the mode of analysis. With regard to validity of the study we adopted the content or face validity method together with the use of external criteria. Our findings revealed that government has not done enough in provision of health facilities, due to bad governance it has not provide adequate road network for the populace also that there is poor power supply. We concluded that if the government is able to provide good health facilities, adequate road network and relative stable electricity supply the situation will improve. The study recommended that Government should assume a renewed commitment to the construction of motorable roads in the six geopolitical zones of the country, it should endeavor to provide electricity supply. This can be achieved by providing money to improve the national grid, finally it should through the National Health Insurance Scheme, be duty committed in terms of the provision of stable and reliable health care services.<\/p>\n<h2>Authors<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>NWANNE JOSEPH  CHINEDUM (DEPARTMENT OF POLITICAL SCIENCE, BINGHAM UNIVERSITY, ALONG ABUJA KEFI EXPRESSWAY, KARU NEAR ABUJA)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Keywords<\/h2>\n<p>Economic development, state, infrastructural facilities, good health, road network<\/p>\n<h2>References<\/h2>\n<p>References not available for this article.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This article was originally published as: IMPACT OF THE STATE ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF INFRASTRUCTURE AN EXPOSITORY ANALYSIS OF ROAD,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":21,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[124],"tags":[1687,2770,2769,2771,2768],"class_list":["post-6090","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-articles","tag-economic-development","tag-good-health","tag-infrastructural-facilities","tag-road-network","tag-state","wpcat-124-id"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.8 -
