ABSTRACT
The people ofWajir have a long time and still earning their living from livestock keeping like
camels, cattle, goats, sheep and very few from peasantry agriculture where bananas, maize,
mangoes, tomatoes are grown majorly for subsistence purpose. The minority of people in
Wajir district are dealing in motor vehicles mechanics, taxi drivers. The majority women
inclusive are petty traders with retail and wholesale business in Wajir district:
The research focused on the role played by First Community Bank Ltd as an Islamic
commercial Bank to the society in Wajir District. During the study period oral interviews,
observation, questionnaire, journals and review of library materials were used to collect the
necessary data.
It was recommended that the feasible way to foster welfare improvement in Wajir district is
by extending/offering credit services to the society by Islamic banking institutions and also to
mobilize their saving culture and target them to profitable microeconomic ventures. In this
way, many will get access to funds which can be invested and in time they may raise enough
so as to fend for themselves. It is hoped that when the number of people who get access to
those credit services increase in Wajir district, welfare improvement will be as well be checked.
