The RAMP-2 as envisaged by the Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development is aimed at improving and enhancing accessibility and mobility in the rural areas mostly involved in agricultural productivity. Project Description The project in Imo State involves the rehabilitation and maintenance of 76 number existing rural roads, with a total length of 380.4km. Imo state lies within south Eastern Nigeria with the following coordinates; 5.6039oN and 7.0068oE. The State capital is Owerri (5.476310N and 7.025853E). It has a total landmass of 5, 530km2 with an average density of 978/km2. It is divided into 27 local government areas with a 2016 projected population of 5,408,300 (NPC, 2016). Project Components The project is structured into 3 components and subcomponents with detailed descriptions stated in the PIM: Summary of the components that will involve involuntary resettlement and as such concerns this ARAP is covered under component 1 and is stated below: • Component 1: Upgrading and Rehabilitation of Rural Roads o Sub-Component 1.1: Upgrading and/or Rehabilitation of Rural Roads and Related Technical supervision and consulting Services. o Sub-Component 1.2: Upgrading and/or rehabilitation of River-crossings and Related Technical supervision and consulting Services. ES 2: Legal and policy framework This ARAP was prepared in cognizance with the OP/BP 4.12 of the World Bank and the Nigerian extant law on land expropriation (Land Use Act 1978). Specifically, the ARAP team reviewed the Land Use Act, 1978, the Resettlement Policy Framework for RAMP-2, the Project Implementation Manual (PIM) and the Project Appraisal Document (PAD). The proceeding chapters of this document will describe and discuss the minimum elements of an ARAP as required in OP 4.12 - Annex A and paragraph 22. ES 3: Socioeconomics of PAPs Age: the mean age of the PAPS is 61yrs. Majority of PAPs at higher risk of losing their source of livelihood are elderly and hence vulnerable. Gender: Majority of PAPs (52%) are males, while 48% are females. Level of Education: A good proportion of the PAPs can be considered to be literate as 93.1 % of the PAPs have at least primary education. Occupation: 72.4% of the PAPs are farmers or depend on land base resources for livelihood, 20.7% are traders and business people, while 6.8% have other sources of income. viii Income: PAPs in the area have generally low incomes. This can be ascribed to: i) poor access of the predominantly farming population, ii)lack of access to modern farming techniques and, iii) lack of agro value chain infrastructures such as markets and roads. Cost of Transportation: The majority of PAPs (75.9%) spend between ₦1001 and ₦2000 weekly on transportation to market places. Poor road conditions especially during the rainy seasons reduce the number of commercial vehicles plying roads and consequently raise the cost of transportation. This inevitably has an impact on the disposable income available to PAPs. An elaborate description of the PAPs’ socioeconomics is presented in Section 2.

These consultations were carried out between March 20th 2019 and May 30th 2019 through community sensitization and meetings which include town hall meetings and Focused Group Discussions (FGD). PAPs were informed of the census cut-off date, which was on the 15th May 2015, Grievance Redress Mechanism (GRM) available to them and their rights and choices as regards resettlement options via town hall meetings and town criers. PAPs were informed that they will be compensated at full replacement for affected assets in accordance with the entitlement matrix presented in this ARAP before the commencement of civil works. PAPs raised concerns that they want their compensations paid to them directly and not through any community leader or a third party. They also sought to know when the project will commence and if they will receive their compensations before the start of project; while the women were concerned that STD, HIV and AIDS are likely going to spread in the communities, particularly among girls who can easily be deceived with money and material things from the construction workers and labour influx. ix ES 6: Institutional Arrangements for Implementation The importance of cross-ministerial coordination and collaboration of many agencies in the implementation of this ARAP is recognized. Key partners for the ARAP implementation include SPIU, FPMU, Ministry of Environment and World Bank. The SPIU reviews the ARAP report and submits to the FPMU. The FPMU reviews the ARAP report and forward to the World Bank for final review and clearance, while the Ministry of Environment will in coordination with the SPIU disclose the ARAP report in country in line with the extant laws of Nigeria. It is the responsibility of the World Bank to disclose the ARAP in its external website (the infoshop). After the report has been cleared and disclosed, it is the responsibility of the SPIU to carry out the detailed mitigation measures such as payment of compensation to PAPs, implementation of livelihood restoration measures, setting up and funding of grievance redress mechanism. Similarly, the FPMU and Ministry of environment will monitor the implementation of the ARAP compensation and livelihood restoration program. Funding of the ARAP will be the responsibility of the SPIU through its counterpart fund. ES7: Arrangements for Monitoring and Implementation Monitoring and evaluation (M&E) of the ARAP will be carried out throughout the project implementation process. Monitoring will involve internal monitoring and independent monitoring. The activities of the internal monitoring will be handled by the Social safeguard officer within the SPIU while the independent monitoring will be carried out by a firm or an independent consultant to be engaged by the SPIU. The social safeguard Officer shall monitor and record the performance of the ARAP implementation based on the monitoring indicators in this ARAP and the findings will be recorded in quarterly reports to be furnished to the FPMU and the World Bank. In addition to verifying the information furnished in the internal supervision and monitoring reports, the independent monitoring agency will visit a sample of 10% of the project affected population in each relevant district/road route, six months after the ARAP has been implemented to amongst other things, determine whether the procedures for PAPs participation and delivery of compensation and other rehabilitation entitlements were done in accordance with the ARAP recommendations. ES 8: Budget and Implementation Schedule The total budget for administering/implementing the ARAP for the proposed rural road routes for Imo State RAMP-2 is Twenty Seven Million, Three Hundred and Seventy Thousand Nine Hundred and Twenty Naira (N27,370,920). The budget will be funded by the SPIU from the state counterpart fund. Implementation Schedule ARAP implementation will begin after the report has been cleared or approved by the World Bank The implementation activities will include report disclosure, capacity building, payment of compensation and rehabilitation program, grievance redress and ARAP implementation monitoring. Implementation is expected to begin in August 2019 and be completed in October 2019 before handing over the site to the contractor. x ES 9: Grievance Redress Mechanism The grievance redress mechanism is anchored on the need to provide a forum locally to receive, hear and resolve disputes arising from ARAP implementation in the best interest of all parties to forestall the lengthy process of litigation, which could affect the progress of project. Thus, this ARAP includes a mechanism for grievance redress in section 8. ES 10: Disclosure of ARAP This ARAP has been prepared in consultation with the, Imo SPIU, FPMU and all PAPs along the proposed road network to be rehabilitated. This ARAP will be submitted to the FPMU and the World Bank by the Imo SPIU for review and clearance. It is mandatory that after this, the instrument will be disclosed by the SPIU through the FMEnv and will be displayed at easily accessible centers to the stakeholders and also at the World Bank website to ensure compliance with relevant Nigerian legislations and World Bank’s Policy OP4.12 on Involuntary Resettlement. xi CHAPTER ONE: INTRODUCTION, PROJECT LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION 1.0 Introduction The Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development on behalf of the Federal Republic of Nigeria has received financial assistance from the World Bank and the French Development Agency (AFD) towards funding the RAMP-2 in the selected states. The project development objective (PDO) of RAMP-2 is to improve transport conditions and bring sustained access to the rural population, through rehabilitating and maintaining key rural transport infrastructure in a sustainable manner in selected Nigerian states. The RAMP2 as envisaged by the Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development is aimed at improving and enhancing accessibility and mobility in the rural areas mostly involved in agricultural productivity. Most rural areas in Imo State suffer economic backwardness and untold hardship as a result of absence of roads, culverts and bridges and or poor conditions of same. 1.2 Project Components The project is structured into 3 components and subcomponents with descriptions detailed in the table below: Table 1.1: Summary of Project Components S/N PROJECT COMPONENT ACTIVITIES 1 Upgrading and Rehabilitation of Finance design studies for upgrading and/or rehabilitation of Rural Roads rural roads and related technical supervision and consulting for an estimated 1,450 km of existing rural and state roads in the participating states. Finance design studies, safeguard assessments, upgrading and/or rehabilitation costs and related supervision activities for approximately 65 river crossings on rural roads in the participating states in order to ensure minimal access at locations selected for their importance for agricultural productivity or to give access to social services. 2 Community-based road Maintenance of the roads that are rehabilitated under maintenance and annual Component 1, as well as a few other pilot roads/ mechanized maintenance Build up the maintenance system while the roads are being rehabilitated. Pilot programs will be initiated in each one of the 1 tier-one states for up to 50 km of rural roads rehabilitated through other means. This component finances all related activities such as: technical assistance for the conformation of the community-based organization, external supervision, monitoring of activities and road condition, and technical audits. 3 Project Management and Address institutional capacity gaps at the sub-national level Strengthening of State & Federal with regard to rural road assets’ management. Road Sector Institutional, Policy and Regulatory Framework Develop and implement sound rural transport policies. Provide a comprehensive institutional development package at the state and federal levels to: support an effective implementation of the project (including through technical audits, whenever needed); design and implement sound rural transport policies; improve the planning and execution of public expenditures in rural transport; and promote the dissemination of best practices, as well as to prepare a possible scaling up of the project in the participating states Finance Project Management Activities at States Level which includes: preparation or updating of prioritization studies and GIS- based road inventories; operational costs, training, safeguards management and fiduciary support(including SPIU costs except staff costs of civil servants); technical assistance for road asset management, including road condition monitoring and support to road planning and maintenance policies; development of rural transport regulations (including heavy vehicles’ weight control, road ownership), establishment of sustainable road data management systems, and preparation of Intermediary Means of Transport (IMT) strategies; technical assistance for reform of state road sector institutions, including institutionalization of the SPIU within states’ organizational chart for rural roads’ management and coordination with eventual state road maintenance agencies; institutional support and training to local governments (e.g. on safeguards management and compliance, fiduciary 2 management, governance and accountability, infrastructure planning); and Technical assistance for ensuring stakeholders and civil society participation in processes that assures road quality, efficiency of works, transparency and social inclusion. Finance Project Management activities at the Federal level. These include: day to day administration, financial management, procurement, and monitoring and evaluation of Project activities at the federal level; eligible operational costs, training and fiduciary support, including project audits for the tier-one states to be contracted by the Federal Government; technical assistance for monitoring of non-participating states (i.e., monitoring of CPS Governance criteria to consider expanding tier one and two lists) and preparatory activities for program's scaling up; technical assistance for dissemination of lessons learnt and best practices (including consultants and workshops); baseline and impact evaluation surveys; and Development of federal policies for the improvement of rural transport (including road standards for low-volume roads) and alignment with the NATA and with federal transport policies. 1.1 Description of Project State and Locations Imo state lies within south Eastern Nigeria with the following coordinates; 5.6039 oN and 7.0068oE. The State capital is Owerri (5.476310N and 7.025853E). It has a total landmass of 5, 530km 2 with an average density of 978/km2. It is divided into 27 local government areas. The population of Imo state was about 5,408,300 in 2016(NPC, estimated at 3.8% growth rate). Imo state is bounded by Anambra state and parts of Abia state to the north, Abia State to the East, Rivers state to the south and to the west by Rivers state. The people of Imo State are predominantly Christians (80%). The remaining 20% comprises traditional religious worshippers and Muslims. The map of the state showing the 27 administrative LGAs and the project areas potentially affected by the planned RAMP intervention is presented in figures 1.1 to 1.9 below. 3 Figure 1.1: Map of Imo State showing the 27 LGAs including the affected LGAs. (Source: Imo RAMP Site Survey, 2019.) Imo State has almost 80% arable land. About 60% of the state population is engaged in agriculture (this includes full and part time farmers). Survey report shows that 45% of the population comprises farmers, 41% traders and business people, 10% civil or public servants while the remaining 4% includes craftsmen such as masons, mechanics and carpenters (Imo RAMP ESIA Team Report, 2019) 1.1.1 Description of Affected Project Routes and Assets Following screening of the project routes based on the requirements in the engineering report and the necessary avoidance measures outlined in section 1.4 of this ARAP, four project roads will be potentially affected as a result of the road rehabilitation/upgrading. The nature of impact will be minimal and involves: • The demolition of minor structures (balconies) along the road corridor; • Removal of crops and economic trees that occupy the right of way. 4 • Loss of land where few affected structures are constructed • Loss of housing which may have consequences on family cohesion and on mutual help networks • Loss of shop and locations of trade may exacerbate the economic condition of PAPs. This will impact negatively on their ability to provide for their households including support for their education health care and nutrition. The affected roads are presented in the table below: Table 1.2: Summary Details of Affected Roads and Number of PAPs S/N Lot Location/Project route Distance No Of PAPs 1 Lot 3 AforUmuduru – Ikpakwu – Ikpenyi – 7.37km 8 Ndainiche – Ndianyakee – Ndiawa Boundary Onuimo in Ideato North LGA 2 Lot 6 Umuguma – Avu – Obinze in Owerri West 7.61km 12 LGA 3 Lot 6 Emeabiam – EjimolaOkolochi (Section 1) in 5.43km Community Owerri West LGA Primary School owned crops 4 Lot 7 Awogwu – St Patrics Catholic Church – 6.65km 9 Obizi-Umukeada Road in Ngor-Okpala LGA Total 29 1.3 Component Entailing Land Acquisition/Involuntary Resettlement OP 4.12 is applicable to this project because the sub-project activities in component 1 (Upgrading and rehabilitation of rural roads) which include rehabilitation works for the proposed rural roads in Imo state will involve land acquisition to accommodate the required minimum road width of 8m and/or 12m right of way (ROW) for land clearance. The activities might also result in the demolition of structures and economic trees/crops along the ROW. 1.4 Design and Consideration to Avoid and Mitigate Land Acquisition Imo RAMP embarked on the following technical steps to avoid and/or reduce land acquisition in the project area: 5 i. Ensuring as much as possible that the engineering design for the road intervention follows the existing alignments of the roads; ii. the setback for access and buffer on the corridors were made known to the stakeholders to be 12 meters however, the project will utilize 8meters from the center of the road in built-up area. Where the 8 meters required is not available; the project will operate with existing space; and iii. Consulting/negotiating with the PAPs on the time to expect commencement of construction work activities within their respective locations. This was to give the PAPs opportunity to harvest mature crops or remove any valuables before the beginning of civil works. Based on this, PAPs whose crops and valuables can be removed before the start of civil works will not be adversely affected. 6 CHAPTER TWO: CENSUS AND VALUATION OF ASSETS 2.1Census The objective of the census1 was to identify and determine the number of Project Affected Persons (PAPs), their assets, and potential impacts of component 1 activities. The outcome shows a total of 29 Project Affected Persons (PAPs), made up of 15 males and 14 females. Also potentially affected is a portion of cassava farm owned by COMMUNITY PRIMARY SCHOOL OKOLOCHI. The census took place from April 29th 2019 to May 15th 2019 and culminated in the announcement of the cut-off date. 2.1.1 Census Cut-off date PAPs were informed of the census cut-off date, which was on the 15th May 2015. This is the date of completion of inventory of losses during the preparation of the ARAP. After this date, no new improvement on land, cultivation or economic activity on the required corridor for road rehabilitation will be eligible for compensation. 2.1.2 Eligibility Criteria for PAPs PAPs who meets the eligibility criteria listed below shall be qualified for compensation and resettlement assistances. The eligibility criteria are: • Those who have formal legal rights of land (including customary and traditional rights recognized under the laws of the country); • Those who do not have formal rights to land at the time the census begins but have a claim to such land or assets and become recognized during the survey; as well as • Those who have no recognizable legal rights or claim to the land they are occupying 2.1.3 Socioeconomic Profile of PAPs All PAPs are married persons and the average age of the PAPs is 61 years. Table 2.1 below illustrates the age distribution of PAPs. 1 Census was conducted in the impact corridor. 7 Table 2.1: Age Distribution of PAPs CATEGORY Male Female Total PERCENTAGE (%) 10 -19 0 0 0 0 20 -29 0 0 0 0 30-39 0 2 2 6.9 40-49 1 1 2 6.9 50-59 1 0 1 3.4 60-69 7 10 17 58.7 >69 6 1 7 24.1 Total 15 14 29 100 Source: RAMP PAP Survey 2019 The implication of the predominantly elderly aged PAPs (above 60 years old) is that majority of the PAPs are potentially vulnerable and at higher risk of losing their sources of livelihood. Table 2.2 explains that PAPs in the project area are largely literate with 93.1% having at least attained primary education. Those without any form of education are 2 and are both females. Detailed illustration of PAPs educational attainment pattern is presented in Table 2.2 below: Table 2.2: Education Attainment Pattern of PAPs.

It shows as follow: • 21 PAPs (72.4% of respondents) are farmers or depend on land base resources for livelihood, • 6 PAPs (20.7% of respondents) are traders, • 2 PAPs (6.8% of respondents) are commercial drivers. The potential effect of the predominantly farming proportion, particularly those whose economic trees will be affected by the project is that they may become vulnerable even after payment of compensation for the value of affected economic trees and assets. On this consideration, the concerned PAPs who also fall within the class of poor people should be assisted with 8 livelihood restoration measures. Table 2.3: Occupation Distribution of PAPs.

The low income pattern can be ascribed to poor access of the predominantly farming population to modern farming techniques and agro value chain infrastructures such as markets and roads for which RAMP is now intervening on 9 2.2 Valuation of Assets The objective of the asset valuation is to determine the current market value of the asset to be impacted, so that amount for compensation will be equal to that which can adequately replace the asset at present. Valuation of assets to be affected by the implementation of the component 1 activities was conducted using a general principle adopted in the formulation of the compensation valuation, which follows the World Bank policy that lost income and asset will be valued at their full replacement cost such that the PAPs should not be worse-off than the pre-project level. The method employed to arrive at full replacement value is shown in the various sections of the proceeding paragraphs. 2.2.1 Valuation Method for Land In line with OP4.12 of the World Bank on involuntary resettlement, land for land replacement is recommended. The valuation method also considered the size of the land and the location of the land since these two variables are determinants of the land value. While the land acquired for the road rehabilitation is within the 12m RoW of the road corridor. The most preferred compensation for land is by giving another land at the location near the affected land, in which case the community leaders and PAP concern can help to identify the land to be used for the compensation. Where alternative land is not available within a reasonable distance, cash compensation at full replacement cost will be paid. In a situation where cash for land is considered, the valuation will be the cost of land based on current value x the size plus 5% for land preparation and bank charges: This is given as Lc = PC x Ls + Br Where LC = Land Compensation Pc =Current Market Price Ls = Land Size Br = Land preparation and Bank charges In view of the above, the estimate cost of land in the project area is N10,000/sqm 2.2.2 Valuation Method for Structures/Assets The Replacement Cost Method was used in estimating the value of property/structure for this ARAP. This was based on the assumption that the capital value of an existing development can be equated to the cost of reinstating the development on the same plot at the current labour, material and other incidental costs. The estimated value represents the cost of the property as if new. The valuer in the ARAP team embarked on a market survey in the building material market closest to the project area (Ogbuosisi market) to establish the current market prices of the building materials as presented in Table 2.5 10 Table 2.5: Market Survey Result Category Materials Unit Amount per Unit asset (Naira) Land Land 1 square meter N10,000 House Cement 1 bag N2,700 Corrugated iron sheet 1 sqm N3,100 Wooden Door 1 N40,000 Tiles Square meter Not Applicable Block – Cement 1 sqm N3,150 Wood/plant 1 N800 Iron rod 1/16mm N4,000 Labour cost: Mason, Carpenter, 1 artisan Per day N6,000 etc Balcony Lump sum N50,000 1) Estimate for 1 unit of 1 room Block house finished with N1,250,000 corrugated roofing sheet 2.) Estimate for 1 unit of uncompleted house NOT finished to lintel N300,000 level Replacement / N 20,000 Installation Assistance 1 room valued at Rent N48,000 per year Based on the relative uniformity of type of materials (roofing type, wall material, windows, doors, ceiling floor type, etc) of the buildings in the affected area and room sizes, the price for constructing a new room was derived. Therefore, compensation for each affected house is based on the number of rooms in the affected house multiplied by the established cost for constructing a new room. 11 2.3.3 Valuation Method for Crops/Trees Although government harmonized rate for valuation/compensation of crops and economic tree exists (See annex 6), a market survey conducted by an independent valuer to determine if the government rate is in tune with current market rate, showed that government rate is in most cases lower than prevailing market rate. Therefore, to fill the gap, the current market rate is used in this ARAP to fulfil the condition “current market rate” of OP 4.12. To fulfilling this condition, the “Damage Loss Assessment Method” was used to determine compensation for economic trees and crops. Under this method, owners of the economic trees are compensated at market value of yield per tree for the current season (agricultural season) and cost of re-planting and nursery is used to determine the compensation rate for the affected economic tree. Therefore, valuation for economic trees was done using gross market value for one year, i.e. estimated yield (Gross )/year multiplied by year needed to grow trees of the same productivity. Compensation will be paid in cash and the PAPs will be encouraged to invest the fund (cash compensation) in replacement of the loss tree (s) with improved variety that is more beneficial. The formula for calculating tree/ crops is expressed as follow: Tc = Y x Pc x Pg Where: Tc =Tree compensation Y= Yield Pc = Current Price Pg = Growth Period Non-economic trees: Cash compensation should be paid, while considering the wood value of the tree at current market value. The owner should be encouraged to plant another tree preferably economic tree. Cost of re-planting and nursery is used to determine the compensation rate for the economic tree.

Compensation payment to PAPs shall be in kind, cash or other assets given in exchange for the taking of land, or loss of other assets, including fixed assets thereon, in part or whole. The compensation entitlement and eligibility of PAPs is derived from the entitlement matrix which is summarized in Table 3.1 and discussed in the preceding sub-sections.

The compensation cost is N10,907,300. The entitlement and eligibility conditions are as applicable in the matrix Table 3.1, B1. Analysis of the affected structures and compensation cost is presented in Table 3.4 below. Table 3.4: Summary of Compensation and Resettlement for Loss of Structure AFFECTED ASSET Type of NO.

The crops affected are pineapples, maize, cassava, bitter leaf and cocoyam among others. Summary of compensation and resettlement for economic trees and crops is as follow: Table 3.4: Summary of Compensation for Loss of Economic Trees and Crops S/N ITEM NUMBER AMOUNT (N) 1 Economic Trees 193 1,055,500 2 Crops 316 316,000 TOTAL 1,371,500 3.5Impact on Tenants Tenants in occupation of structures are not paid compensation for the structures as shown in the matrix table B2, but for loss of business income and value amounting to one (1) year rent in current premise. The tenants who use structures for business informed the RAP team that they are in business for 6 days in a week. It was therefore, estimated that compensation for loss of income for two (2) months is necessary for the PAPs because it may take about two months for them to stabilize in the new livelihood or new location of business. 15 Table 3.5: Summary of Compensation for Loss of Business Premise Location Monthly Total Annual Total Total Business Loss Business Rental Rental Business Compensation Compensation Allowance Allowance & Rental Allowance (N) N0273805 7000 56,000 48,000 48,000 104,000 E0598325 N0274120 7000 56,000 48,000 48,000 104,000 E0602311 N0274120 7000 56,000 48,000 48,000 104,000 E0602311 N0273801 4000 32,000 48,000 48,000 80,000 E0598319 Total 200,000 192,000 392,000 3.6 Impact on Vulnerable Group Profile of the vulnerable people identified in this ARAP is as presented in the matrix below: S/N CATEGORY NUMBER 1 Male aged 60 years and above 6 2 Female aged 60 years and above 9 3 Widowed female aged below 60 2 years TOTAL 17 As shown in the matrix for impact on vulnerable, the key characteristics of the vulnerable persons identified in the project area are age and widowhood. Also, during focus group discussion with the group, it was noted that the cash compensation they will receive as PAPs may not be sufficient to sustain them in livelihood on the consideration that they depend primarily on economic trees and crops for livelihood, which are the items that will be removed/destroyed by the project. Engagement with this group (vulnerable people) revealed that they can optimized their livelihood if the project could assist them with some cash and assistance to replace their loss economic trees and crops, on their lands not affected by the project and /or other in-kind assistances Therefore, the vulnerable persons whose economic trees and crops are affected are entitled to livelihood restoration support in addition to compensation for loss items. 16 Livelihood restoration plan basically will involve: • Sensitization / training of PAPs on how to utilize their compensation benefits in their chosen productive activities. • Procurement and re-planting of new species of plants and crops or other in-kind assistances Below (Table 3.6) is the Livelihood Restoration Plan indicating estimated cost of the plan and responsibilities. 17 Table 3.6: Livelihood Restoration Plan ACTION NO.

Budget for the witness NGO is contained under the cost component on Implementation, Monitoring and Administrative Cost. Other members of the resettlement committee shall include representative of PAPs (female representative is required), district head or his cabinet secretary, 2 personnel from RAMP2 SPIU which shall include the Environmental and Social Safeguard officers. 3.7.1 How PAPs will be identified for Compensation Eligible PAPs are those whose names, Phone numbers and photographs appear in the PAPs register. Therefore, during the implementation of compensation, PAPs shall be recognized through one or both of the following: 1) Photograph in the PAP register; 2) Certificate of entitlement issued to PAP (containing description of affected items, name of PAP and phone number) 18 3.7.2 ARAP Compensation Process The compensation process will involve several steps in accordance with this resettlement and compensation plan and shall include the following: • Public participation: Public participation with the PAPs which had been part of the process of this ARAP would continue even at the ARAP implementation phase. Using the entire identified medium, PAPs would be contacted, consulted and made to participate in enlightenment workshop in which alternatives and modalities for compensation will be discussed and agreed. During this meeting, eligible PAPs will be issued clearance certificate for entitlement by the resettlement committee. • The resettlement committee will ensure that PAPs are all contacted/consulted, and necessary dossiers are documented from PAPs • PAPs will be issued with an order form that specify clearly their Bank Account Name, Name of Bank, Account Number and Sort Code. • Non-Bank Account holders shall be assisted to open bank accounts. This is necessary for three reasons: • Operating a bank account will be a plausible option to manage PAPs income restoration program • In the case of in-kind assistances such as re-planting of affected economic trees, erecting new structure and/or paying for rent, PAPs will have access to information regarding how much money was provided in the budget for the compensation/assistance. • Notification - Dates of various activities for the resettlement program will be communicated to PAPs for inclusive participation. 3.7.3 Compensation Payment Administration The resettlement budget details prepared in this ARAP shall be the guide for the resettlement committee in implementing the ARAP compensation. After the processes elaborated in the preceding section have been exhausted, the committee will prepare the payment documentation stating the Name of PAP, address, Phone number, Bank account details and amount entitled. The submission will be made to the Project Coordinator at the SPIU. The Project Coordinator will verify the submission by the committee using the ARAP Budget document as a reference. If there are errors, omissions or ambiguities, the attention of the committee will be drawn for reconciliation. When fully verified, the payment mandate/report shall be sent to the government approval officer for necessary endorsement/approval of fund and payment. 3.7.4 Resettlement Implementation Linkage to Civil Works Before any civil work commences, PAPs must have received full compensation/resettled in accordance with the entitlement matrix/budget plan established in this ARAP. Only after the 19 ARAP has been implemented will the SPIU or their contractor mobilize to the sites for civil works activities. CHAPTER FOUR: INSTITUTIONAL ARRANGEMENTS FOR IMPLEMENTATION This chapter lists out the stakeholders and institutional arrangements relevant to the implementation of this project and also tabulates their roles and responsibilities. 4.1 International Stakeholders This is made up of the World Bank and the French Development Agency. 4.2Federal Level Stakeholders At this level, there is the Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (FMARD) and the Federal Project Management unit (FPMU). 4.3State Level Stakeholders This includes State Institutions like the Imo State Ministry of Works, Environment, Agriculture and Rural Development, the State Project Monitoring Unit (SPMU) and the State Project Implementation Unit (SPIU) under RAMP. 4.4Other Stakeholders • Grievance Redress Committee • Local Government Institutions: All the Projects Local Government Authorities • Community: Traditional rulers, village heads of all the areas covered by the project, Community members and PAPs. • Private sector (Contractors, Consultants), NGOs and CBOs and Focal Groups. 4.5Stakeholders and their Responsibilities S/ Stakeholders/ Responsibilities No Institutions 1 SPIU • Establishment of Resettlement Committee (RC);

The independent agency will be either an academic or research institutions, non-governmental organizations (NGO) or an independent consulting firm. They should have qualified and experienced staff and their terms of reference acceptable to the World Bank. In addition to verifying the information furnished in the internal supervision and monitoring reports, the independent monitoring agency will visit a sample of 10% of the Project affected Population in each relevant district/road route, six months after the ARAP has been implemented to: • Determine whether the procedures for PAPs participation and delivery of compensation and other rehabilitation entitlements have been done in accordance with the ARAP • Assess if the ARAP objective or enhancement or at least restoration of living standards and income levels of PAPs have been met. • Gather qualitative indications of the social and economic impact of project implementation on the PAPs. • Suggest modification in the implementation procedures of the ARAP, as the case may be, to achieve the principles and objectives of this ARAP. The terms of reference for this task and selection of qualified agency will be prepared by the SPIU in collaboration with the FPMU and the World Bank at the beginning of project implementation stage. Some of the indicators that will be monitored by the independent monitoring consultant is presented in Table 5.2.

It will be financed through the projects administrative and financial management rules and manuals like any other sub-activity of the project eligible for payment under this project. It is expected that implementation function will rest on the SPIU, but the budget will however be subject to the finalization of disclosure and clearance/approval by World Bank before disbursement or implementation can commence. Since the State government will be responsible for funding the compensation entitlement, final approval for payments above the limit for the Project Coordinator (if applicable) must be approved by the Chief Accounting Officer of the State Ministry of Finance (Commissioner). The total budget for administering/implementing the ARAP for the proposed rural road routes for Imo State RAMP-2 is Twenty Seven Million, Three Hundred and Seventy Thousand Nine Hundred and Twenty Naira (N27,370,920). A breakdown of the budget according to components, project routes/community is shown in Table 6.2 27 28 Table 6.2: Compensation/Implementation Budget for ARAP by Road Location Total Compensation S/N Location Costing (N) No Of PAPs 1 AforUmuduru – Ikpakwu – Ikpenyi – Ndainiche – 8 572000 Ndianyakee – Ndiawa Boundary Onuimo in Ideato North LGA 2 Umuguma – Avu – Obinze in Owerri West LGA 12 18,784,600 3 Emeabiam – EjimolaOkolochi (Section 1) in Owerri 1 50,000 West LGA 4 Awogwu – St Patrics Catholic Church – ObiziUmukeada 9 877,500 Road in Ngor-Okpala LGA Sub-Total: ARAP Compensation for PAPs 20,284,100 5 Livelihood Assistance and training for Vulnerable PAPs 17 1,730,000 Table 6.2B: Compensation/Implementation Budget for ARAP by Cost Item Cost Item Amount for Compensation Proportion of Total (%) Total Compensation for Land 7,613,300 43.8 Total Compensation for Loss of Structures 6.250,000 36.0 Total Compensation for Loss of 1,371,500 7.9 Crops/Economic Trees Total Compensation for Loss of Business 392,000 2.4 premises and Business Income Assistance to Vulnerable group 1,530,000 8.8 Training and Sensitization 200,000 1.1 Grand Total N17,356,800 100% 6.3 Training and Sensitization Based on the assessment of the institutional capacities of the SPIU and other implementing agencies in the understanding and implementation of ARAP, it is recommended that some form of capacity building and enlightenment be provided to the implementers, resettlement committee, Grievance Committee, PAPs and the vulnerable group.

Therefore, the setting of grievance redress committee early during ARAP implementation is desirable. Registration of grievance with the Grievance Redress Committee Treatment of grievance Closure of grievance by Committee Is complainant satisfied with Yes No Committee decision Closure of grievance by Resort to grievance Committee Grievance processing by Committee Response of the Committee Yes Is complainant satisfied Closure of complaint with decision Refer to theor PCU court only as Court last resort Figure 7.1: Grievance Log showing steps for grievance redress As shown in the grievance log above, an aggrieved PAP will have the opportunity to lodge complaint with the GRC at the residence or palace of the community district head. That will be the first channel of grievance uptake. It is expected that the matter should be addressed and determined within 21 days from date of receiving the complaint. If a PAP feels dissatisfied with the outcome of 31 the closure of the matter by the community GRC, he/she is encouraged to go to the higher channel for redress. 7.1.1 Grievance Redress Process Steps for grievance redress shall involve: i. Registration The secretary of the committee will receive grievance from the complainant, register and acknowledge receipt of grievance to the grievant within 2 days. The registration will capture the following data: name of the complainant, date of the grievance, category of the grievance, persons involved, and impacts on complainant life, proofs and witnesses. A registration form will have all these bits of information. ii. Treatment of Grievance This involves the verification of grievance to determine among other things whether the matter has relationship with the project activities, and whether the matter can be handled/resolved at the level where it is presented. This will determine if the matter should be referred to the next level or not. Part of the investigations may also be to assess the cost of lost or risk involved in the grievance. iii. Closing of the Grievance or the Processing of the matter This involves options and approach taken to resolving the case. This may involve site visit for physical inspection and determination of the claim, negotiation with the aggrieved PAP and feed back to the parties involved. iv. Feed back All responses to the complainant in a grievance redress process that moves beyond a unit level must be communicated in writing and/or by verbal presentation to the complainant. This will include a follow up on the corresponding authority where cases are referred, to ascertain the status of reported cases. Feedback on outcome of each case should get to the complainant through the secretary of committee or social contact/safeguard person as the case may be. It is expected that reported complaints at each level will be resolved and determined within 21 days from date of receipt of the complaint. 7.1.2 Grievance Redress Institutions The institutions responsible for redress are as follows: • Resettlement and Compensation Team • PC/ Resettlement/Compensation/Grievance Committee • State Steering Committee Level • National Office • Court of Competent Jurisdiction 32 7.1.3Structure of Grievance Redress for the Road Rehabilitation Works A sequence of five steps will be prepared to give aggrieved PAPs easy access to redress during the ARAP implementation and the Road Rehabilitation Works. The five step sequence is further elaborated as follows: First Level: Dissatisfied PAP forwards complaints to Resettlement and Compensation Team/Committee The first step of this procedure is for the aggrieved PAP to make a complaint to the RAP implementation team. The ARAP implementing team in this case is two-tiered, the first tier being the In-house team, composed of the safeguard unit of Imo RAMP and the Resettlement Committee. Issues of misinformation and expectation management are easily tempered at this stage; and are usually tamed at field/community level. Information received from the field strongly supports that anchoring a GRM under the jurisdiction of the district heads will be an effective and result oriented exercise. The underlying merit is that the district heads leadership system has proven a cordial and notable channel for conflict resolution in the project areas. The district head shall head this committee while membership of the committee will consist of: • The District head or a person appointed by him from his council; • Secretary to the district head • The village/ward head; • The Woman leader in the community or her secretary • 2 Representatives of PAPs in the project • 2 members of the road maintenance committee A log of such complaints shall be kept by the safeguard unit and treated formally, whether such a complaint is made orally, or in writing. Second Level: Intervention by PC/ Resettlement/Compensation/Grievance Committee If the compliant cannot be resolved at the community level or the PAP is not satisfied with the resolution reached at community level, the PAP can appeal to the second level. Complaints shall be presented to the Project coordinator and addressed by a Grievance redress committee constituted by him. This committee will be known as the Project Resettlement Committee; and shall be composed of: • Social safeguards officer; • Other senior officers of Imo RAMP appointed by the PC; and • Representatives of appropriate stakeholders in the area During the grievance redress meeting, the PAP or his/her advocate shall be duly represented. 33 The functions of the Grievance Redress Committee is to look into the case promptly; recommend interim and long term support to affected persons; record the grievance of the PAPs; report to the aggrieved parties about the developments regarding their grievances and the decision of the Project authorities. Level 3: GRC at the State Steering Committee Level: The committee at this level shall be headed by the Permanent Secretary Ministry of Agriculture while the SPC shall serve as the secretary of the committee. Membership of the GRC at this level shall constitute as follows: • The Permanent Secretary; • Director Ministry of Land, Survey and Planning • Director Ministry of Local Government and Rural Development • Director Ministry of Environment • The State Project Coordinator of RAMP • A witnessing NGO Level 4: Intervention by National Office In the event that a complaint cannot be resolved at level 1,2,& 3, the National RAMP office (FPMU) headed by the (NCR) and supported by the National Social safeguards officer shall intervene in PAPs’ grievances . Level 5: Reference to Court of Competent Jurisdiction Upon exhaustion of efforts by the GRC, State and National levels, PAPs’ would be advised to seek full legal redress in a court of competent jurisdiction. This option shall as much as possible be avoided, and only resorted to as a last option and worst case scenario. 7.1.4 Expectation when Grievance Arises Although this ARAP has been carefully prepared in consultation with PAPs which is expected to eliminate the chances of grievance occurrences, it is however not inconceivable for there to be few cases of grievances emanating from the handling of compensation. Expectations of PAPs in grievance is that they receive a fair hearing, and that their complaints should receive quick response and fair judgement. Based on this expectation, the following general expectations apply: 1. It is expected that SPIU would have set up a designated grievance redress committee that have been trained on defined procedures to addressing grievances; 2. It is expected that aggrieved people are aware of where to lodge complaints; 3. That the secretary or chairman of the grievance redress committee or whoever receives complaints should document and acknowledge all complaints and notify the committee in 34 early to take necessary action on the subject matter. 4. That the right of the aggrieved party to anonymity (where applicable) should be observed. 5. That grievance matters should be resolved as early as possible in order not to dampen the confidence of the PAP 6. It is expected that the members of the committee will be fair and upright in their judgement 7. It is expected that PAPs will be informed of their right to seek redress in the court of law and be assisted free of charge in the process. 7.1.5 Management of Reported Grievances The procedure for managing grievances shall be as follows: ▪ The affected person files his/her grievance relating to any issue associated with the resettlement process or compensation, in writing or telephonically, to the project Resettlement and Compensation committee (phone numbers will be provided by the SPIU). When received in writing, the grievance note should be signed and dated by the aggrieved person. When received telephonically, the receiver should document all details. ▪ A selected member of the Grievance Redress Committee will act as the Project Liaison Officer who will be the direct liaison with PAPs in collaboration with an independent agency/person ensure to objectivity in the grievance process. ▪ Where the affected person is unable to write, the local Project Liaison Officer will write the note on the aggrieved person’s behalf. ▪ Any informal grievances will also be documented Table 7.5: Implementation Plan for Grievance Redress Steps Process Description Completion Responsible Time frame Agency/Person 1 Receipt of complaint Document date of receipt, 1 day Secretary to GRC at name of complainant, project level village, nature of complaint, inform the SPIU 2 Acknowledgement By letter, email, phone 1-5 days Social safeguard of grievance officer at SPIU 3 Screen and Establish Visit the site; 7-14 days GRC including the the Merit of the social safeguard listen to the Grievance officer & the complainant/community; aggrieved PAP or assess the merit his/her representative 4 Implement and Where complaint is 21 days or at PC-PIU and Social monitor a redress justified, carry out a time safeguard Officer resettlement redress in line specified in 35 action with the entitlement writing to the matrix/OP 4.12 aggrieved PAP 5 Extra intervention Review the redress steps 2-3 weeks of PC-PIU for a dissatisfied and conclusions, provide receiving scenario intervention solution status report 6 Judicial adjudication Take complaint to court of No fixed Complainant law time 7 Funding of grievance GRC logistics and No fixed The proponent process training, redress time compensation, court process 71.6 Monitoring Complaints The Project Liaison Officer will be responsible for: ▪ Providing the Grievance Redress Committee with a weekly report detailing the number and status of complaints; ▪ Any outstanding issues to be addressed; ▪ Monthly reports, including analysis of the type of complaints, levels of complaints, actions to reduce complaints and initiator of such action. 7.2 The World Bank Grievance Redress Service The GRS is the WB’s corporate problem solving service for project communities. It is an important means of promoting development effectiveness in WB financed operations. The GRS ensures that complaints are promptly reviewed and addressed by its responsible units, particularly for individuals and communities who believe that a WB financed project has caused harm to their community. 36 CHAPTER EIGHT: PUBLIC CONSULTATIONS AND PARTICIPATION 8.1 Method of Participation Public consultation is a continuous aspect of this project and the consultations for this ARAP was built on existing awareness campaigns conducted across the project areas by Imo RAMP. Public consultation has been embarked and will continue throughout the duration of the project. This consultation applies to and involves local government officials, all villages around the corridor of the RAMP-2 project roads and the environs, all farmers whose land and livelihood will be affected and also owners of properties on the corridors of the road all with a view of propagating the objectives and benefits of RAMP-2 to the communities and sensitizing the community leaders on how to mobilize their people to ensure full participation in the implementation of the project. These consultations are through meetings which include general meetings and Focused Group Discussions (FGD). It was ensured that all affected groups participated in the consultations through mobilization through community union leadership and town crier.

PAPs were told that land acquisition will be avoided as much as possible via realignment of the design or reduction of the road width. However, where avoidance measures fail, PAPs will be compensated in line with the guideline of OP 4.12. PAPs were told about their right in ARAP process and compensation, including their right to grievance redress (GR). The channels of GR and process for channeling grievances were also discussed. PAPs were asked to ask questions, make inputs and raise concerns where they deem necessary. They were informed 38 by the ARAP team that their inputs will be taking into consideration in the preparation of the ARAP report. Major concerns Raised 1. There were concerns by PAPs that the project will lead to loss of farm land and by Stakeholders crops along the road corridors which will make them economically worse off. 2. Business owners along the road corridors were concerned that they will be evicted in order to pave way for the road construction activities.
