dc.description.abstractRural Development has been a front-burner issue in Nigeria simply because the majority of Nigerian people is rural dwellers. The importance of rural areas and its people cannot therefore be overlooked in a bid to have sustainable development, due to the fact that it is bedrock of the nation’s development. The development of rural areas as the bedrock of rural transformation has long been neglected in Nigeria with the ascendancy of crude oil as the mainstay of the nation’s economy. Despite the pivotal role of rural areas in production, the productivity of the rural masses is still low because of lack of effective transformation which, if properly done will obviously stimulates rural development, encourages rural industrialization and checks rural-urban migration and promotes the national economy. It is believed that despite the potentials attached to the rural areas and rural dwellers, emphasis and major focus of people and government are in the urban areas. But the major emphasis supposed to be placed in rural areas and how it is to be transformed by allocation of resources between physical, economic and social services. If rural areas are developed through proper transformation, it can develop the rural areas where most nations’ resources are tapped as well as promote the economy of Nigeria. This review work suggested that all hands must be on deck to ensure that Nigerian rural communities are effectively transformed.en_US
