communities, which are part of the entire political system is struggling, to
facilitate socio-economic growth. Idemili South Local Government Area in Anambra
State, which represents a good sample of rural administration in Nigeria
reflects a number of rural development concerns.

Government Area’s are supposed to be engines of national development. A rural
community, grows into a bustling city and the local leader makes this possible.
Idemili South Local Government Area was created out of Idemili Local Government
Area in 1989. It is bounded on the north by Idemili Local Government Area, on
the east, by Anaocha Local Government Area, on the South by Nnewi North and
Ekwusigo Local Government Areas and on the west by Ogbaru Local Government Area.
However Idemili South Local Government Area is not immune to the challenges of
rural development in Nigeria. According to Arowolo, D. (2008), as important as
this tier of government, there seems to be some impediments, that have been
infringing on its performance and functions in recent times. These impediments
range from political to include, interference by the higher levels of
Government i.e federal and state governments, bribery and corruption,
embezzlement and gross inadequacy of well-trained and qualified personnel to
mention a few.

of the perceived challenges in rural administration, using Idemili South Local
Government as a case study.
