Additionally, chi-square tests were employed to analyse the relationship between National Assembly constituency projects and their effect on the availability of educational infrastructure development in selected rural communities, FCT, Abuja. Key findings revealed that National Assembly constituency projects have significantly affected the availability of educational infrastructure development in selected rural communities, Federal Capital Territory, Abuja. The study recommended that policymakers should sustain funding of National Assembly constituency project interventions on educational infrastructure development in the rural communities, FCT, Abuja and beyond.
