CHAPTER ONE
1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE
STUDY
Rural
development is one of the arms of the ministry of social welfare in the formal
northern Nigeria government. It was under ministry of education and community
development when kwara state was created in 1967 after about a year, the kwara state
government removed local government community development from education and
also removed local government section from governor’s office and emerged the
two together to become one ministry known as ministry of local government and
community development in the year 1969. (Rural development section was under
this ministry).
Presently,
ministry of rural development now exist. At its inception, kwara state
comprised of two provinces, namely Kabba and Ilorin. The arrangement of rural
development activities was based on provisional administration, but at the end
of 1968, divisional administration was created. Among the division created form
the provinces were Igbomina / Ekiti, Ilorin, Kabba, Kogi etc.
Rural
development is one of the instruments used to obtain popular and renowned participation
in development. The discussion, decision, planning and implementation of
development projects are jointly done by members themselves and the rural
development promotes who parties the programme.
The
attention of local government to rural development activities is due to proper
co-ordination and must do assignment of local government administration.
Nevertheless, most of these developments are initiatives of rural community
members but after all has been said and done, rural community members are not
independent of local or state government assistance and support.
The
contributions of local government towards any rural development can never be
over emphasized.
1.2 AIMS AND
OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
In
view of the importance of local government as an instrument to transform rural
areas, this study aims at highlighting the impact of the local government
(Ilorin East local government) on rural transformation of its jurisdiction.
Also to examine the problems and solutions of economic and social activities of
the area.
Moreover,
the research is conducted to expatiate on the step that has been taken by
various rural communities and local governments in rural transformation
(2005-2008).

study would be useful and beneficial to Ilorin East local government and other
agencies of rural transformation. It will contribute to the existing knowledge
and serve as a reference to future researchers.
1.4 THE SCOPE AND LIMITATIONS OF
THE STUDY
This
project work deals with how Ilorin east local government serves as means of
transforming its rural areas. It covers the period of local government reform
of 1976 to date.
There
are some constraints encountered in the process of writing this project work
among which are collection of writing this project work among which are
collection of information from local government personnel who usually referred
to some document as “classified document” and secret files which could not be
reached or treated for this work.
Also,
finance is another constraint which is the orbit in which every other factors
rotates and since it is limited, then one or two problems were encountered,
like cost of transportation and typing.
