Abstract
Based on what has been said and written, rural development is central
to the survival of the Nigerian State. But there is still an enormous gab
between policy formulation and implimentation and between the multidimensional
nature of rural development problems and practice of rural
development administration.
The failure to adopt appropiate strategies that will recognise and
use locally available resources and knowledge have been mostly
responsible. Thus rural development continues to be a subject that is
attracting a lot of controversy.
This study exmained the introduction of the integrated rural
community based development strategies, the motivation that is required
for the people to embark on their own development activities in
recognition of locally available resources and knowledge. Community
development was seen to be sustainable when it is rooted in the people
themselves and derived from their own enironment.
