dc.description.abstractThe Nigerian federation has undergone significant political re-engineering over time, just like many other political arrangements. The ability of local governments to deliver services, their financial stability, and their administrative and managerial autonomy have all been crucial factors in Nigeria. Therefore, the study aimed is to investigate the local government operations, revenue generation and community development in Ogun State, Nigeria. The study was anchored on fiscal federalism theory, constitutional foundation theory, social capital theory and theory of empowerment. The study adopted the descriptive research design. The population of the study included all revenue generating means of Yewa South local government in Ogun State, 3 top executives of Yewa South L/G, Monthly Statutory Allocation to Yewa South L/G and three communities in Yewa South L/G in Ogun State. A sample size was selected using purposive sampling method to deal with different components of the study variables. From the findings, the study concluded that there is a substantial negative association between local government capital funding and rural development at the 0.05. Based on the findings, the study suggested that there should be sufficient fund by government and non-government organization. Local government should equally diversify, and strengthen her internally generated revenue base through tax, levies, rates and other charges. Avoid using IGR for political patronage.
