Every local jurisdiction has its unique economic, social and physical  characteristics and its historical tradition which are better understood by its  people. Thus, the Local Government Areas are created to provide the  services which the Federal and State Governments cannot easily undertake due to their remoteness from the local communities. Therefore, the  concept of local government is to bring governance closer to the people at the grassroots, with the aim of caring for the socio-economic and  development needs of local populace. Over the years, it has been observed that massive rural-urban migration and over congestion are heating up lives in the cities. Others have contended that Local  Governments are docile in terms of aggressive revenue collection to  augment allocations from the federation account which they get on monthly basis. Yet, others hinged Local Governments’ abysmal revenue generation on dishonesty on the part of council revenue collectors, who, in most cases, misappropriate collections made on behalf of the council. In the face of  these charges or allegations, it has become pertinent to investigate why  Local Governments in the country have poor revenue generation efforts.  The thrust of this paper therefore is to find lasting solutions to the financial problems hindering local governments in Nigeria, most especially strategies to ameliorate the over-dependence on Federal Government allocation for the up-keep of the Local Government. The paper also recommends  amongst others, that any official who divert local government funds to their personal purse should be punished in accordance with the law of the land, use of council staff for revenue collections should be encouraged and stop using agents who are not council staff. The paper concludes that  undoubtedly, for Local Governments to be able to perform these functions creditably, they need sufficient funds.

INTRODUCTION
The creation of more states from the former region of Nigeria in 1967 and 1976 respectively, was aims at bringing the government closer to the people at the grass root level. It was also aimed at solving the problem of distance and remoteness of the seat of the central or state government from the local people.
In the same vein, the creation of more local governments thorugh the country in 1976, following the recommendation of the Udoji public service review commission of 1974, was a set forward in encouraging full local participation in the art of government upon which the state and the federal government is to be built.
Local government in Nigeria are created to provide efficient social services to the local communities in the most economical ways out of the limited revenue which are being collected from the communities inform of taxes, rate feex profit from commercial undertakings and other miscellaneous earnings.
Inspite of the fact that the 1975 local government reform has invariably established a united local government system, more declaration was made in the budget speech of 1st January 1991 by president Babangida that, local government will be accorded full administrative autonomy and allowed to operate in accordance with split and a letter of the constitution and direction by the state or federal government the discharge of these constitutional responsibilities. The subvention will come to them directly. However, more responsibilities have been given to the local government.
“The full ones and responsibility of providing the basic needs including primary education for their communities are now on them”.
Apart from the above spelled out functions there are other already established functions and since the primary aim of setting up local government council is to bring the administration closer to the people. It the follows that more service attention is to be paid to the communities
For instance provisions of basic health facilities, provision of assess roads, for the farmers and traders to bering their product to the market centers and going about their trading activities.
There are still lots more to be leant from the mistakes problems and achievements regarding  the operation of the system in the various local government areas. It is principally a sainst this background that professional administrations, councilors and individual in the whole past of the country may find if useful to understand the operative system of local government revenue generation elsewhere in Nigeria.
The general public will also like to know how their councils obtain much needed revenue and how such revenue is generated for the development of their localities.
Furthermore, the students of local government and administration cannot afford to continue studying the structure of state of federal government finance without having interests in a vital aspect of the structure which is local government revenue generation.
This project work is therefore intended to provide road information on the system used by our local government councils in their revenue generation in Kwara State.
The Ifelodun Local government shall be the area of study in Kwara state of Nigeria.

• STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

The effectiveness efficiency and survival of any local government depends on the functions, finances and staffs, including the authority that may be granted to it by the enabling laws of the state and federal government.
This study is therefore, intended to examine the relationship between the spelled out constitution of the federal republic of Nigeria 1979 and that of local government revenue and revenue generation included in the president budget speech of 1st January 1991 page 7 respectively.
Is shall among others study the origin of revenue generation objectives of revenue generation, source of revenue, problem of revenue generation if Ifelodun local government and recommendation shall be givesn as to the ways by which effective generation of revenue can be made in the Ifelodun Local government.

1.3   SCOPE OF THE STUDY
        One of the importance of this study is to extend the sphere of knowledge to the direction of Ifelodun local government “the relation between the varied revenue scources and the effectiveness of it generation” since limited study on this topic and issue has been done in this “remote” direction.
This study will not only identify the obstacles militating against effective revenue generation in Ifelodun local government, but also provide suggestive solution to them.
While this study will be of particular value of the general readers, local government practitioner’s and training institutions concerned with local government in developing countries, it is hoped that students of local government who read it will derive more benefits from using it.

1.4   ORGANIZATION OF THE STUDY
