THE ROLE OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT IN RURAL DEVELOPMENT IN NIGERIA. A STUDY OF IKORODU LGA LAGOS STATE

Abstract

The role of local government in rural development is critical to the socio-economic progress of communities in Nigeria. This study examines the contribution of local government to rural development, with a specific focus on Ikorodu Local Government Area (LGA) in Lagos State. Rural development encompasses a wide range of activities aimed at improving the quality of life and economic well-being of people living in relatively isolated and sparsely populated areas.

The study employs a mixed-methods approach, combining both qualitative and quantitative research methods. Data were collected through structured questionnaires, interviews with key stakeholders, and a review of relevant documents and reports. The research aims to identify the extent to which the Ikorodu LGA has been successful in implementing rural development projects and the challenges it faces in fulfilling this mandate.

Findings indicate that the Ikorodu LGA has made significant contributions to rural development through initiatives such as infrastructure development, healthcare services, educational improvements, and agricultural support programs. However, the study also reveals several challenges, including inadequate funding, bureaucratic bottlenecks, lack of skilled personnel, and limited community participation in decision-making processes.

The study concludes that while Ikorodu LGA has achieved some success in promoting rural development, there is a need for improved funding mechanisms, capacity building for local government officials, and enhanced community engagement to ensure sustainable development. The recommendations provided aim to guide policymakers and stakeholders in addressing the identified challenges and optimizing the role of local governments in rural development across Nigeria.

This research contributes to the broader understanding of local governance and rural development in Nigeria, highlighting the importance of strengthening local government capacities to achieve meaningful and lasting improvements in rural communities.
