THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREAS IN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT OF IGBO ETITI LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA OF ENUGU STATE.
Abstract
ABSTRACT
The contributions of local government areas in community
development of Igbo Etiti Local Government Area of
Enugu State identify the roles of local government in
community development, assess the challenges facing
local government in community development, and suggest
strategies for improving community development. A
descriptive survey research design was adopted, and data
was collected through questionnaires and interviews. The
research reveals that local government areas have made
significant contributions to community development in Igbo
Etiti, including infrastructure development, education,
healthcare, and agriculture. However, challenges such as
inadequate funding, corruption, and lack of community
participation hinder effective community development. This
study recommends increased funding, transparency, and
community engagement to enhance the effectiveness of
local government areas in community development.
