| dc.description.abstract | This study examined the impact and challenges of local government administration on rural development in Asa Local Government. The study relied on both primary and secondary data. 237 questionnaires were administered while 218 were received and analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Science software. A basic need approach was adopted for this study. The finding from the study showed that Asa local government council has not adequately enthroned development as it has not ensured adequate water supply, road construction, and other social amenities in the local government. Failure of leadership at the local level affects rural development and community development is not adequate as a result of corruption and diversion of projects by local government officials. The paper concluded that rural development is largely undermined and recommended that political appointees and workers in Asa must imbibe the culture of leadership by example anchored on selfless service with total commitment and sacrifice. Government and non-governmental programmes on development should be implemented and executed and there should be periodic monitoring of local government projects. | |
