To assess the effect of risk monitoring on project performance of Mogadishu to Jowhar Road Construction project, Mogadishu-Somalia. The study was guided by the Prospect Theory is a theory of decision-making under conditions of risk (Tversky & Kahneman, 2013).The study applied a descriptive research design with a population totaling 160 respondents. However from the study population a Solven’s formula was used to determine the sample size of the study which comprised of 114 respondents. The study used both Interview guides and Questionnaires as the main source of data collection instruments. From the study findings on objective one that is the effect of Risk documentation project performance of Mogadishu to Jowhar Road Construction project, Mogadishu-Somalia presented in table 4.3, had an Average mean=2.71 and SD=1.49 which was rated Satisfactory from the likert scale, implying that majority of the respondents agreed or strongly agreed in response to the study questions. On second objective the researcher established that Risk assessment had a significant effect project performance of Mogadishu to Jowhar Road Construction project. This implies that Risk assessment accounts for project performance of Mogadishu to Jowhar Road Construction projects by low contribution. On the third objective Risk Monitoring alone had a very low effect on the project performance of Mogadishu to Jowhar Road Construction project, Mogadishu-Somalia, Somalia.
