In Nigeria, the philosophy of people " s participation in rural community development is increasingly gaining acceptance as an important instrument for mobilising resources and organising the rural populace to have cogent interests in providing for their wellbeing. Government at various strata such as the federal, state and local government have come to terms with the fact that there is an inherent imperative in " the traditional democratic theory " , which advocates rural populace active participation in the Decision-making and implementation of policies that affect and shape their lives. In view of this recognition of the impetus of people " s participation, successive governments " proposals for rural community development contain various forms of statements and commitments aimed at maximising people " s participation in ensuring their general wellbeing. In this light, this paper seeks to review the various self-help approaches to rural community development in Nigeria, with vivid emphasis on its group dynamism, which also serve as the thrust of this paper.
