The relative success of the Kainji resettlement scheme as compared with that of Volta.
The author compares the population resettlement programs undertaken in connection with the construction of dams at Lake Volta in Ghana and Kainji Lake in Nigeria.  Data are from published sources and from a 1971 survey conducted by the author in Nigeria. Differences between the policies and procedures are outlined.  It is noted that "these differences resulted in the differences in the patterns of adjustment of the resettled people."
