Abstract

This research reports a comparative study on revenue management at the Local government level with focus on Local councils of Ogun and Lagos States. Survey and the historical methods were adopted to generate the data used to investigate the research problems. The respondents comprised of 400 people made - up ·of 100 staff of both Ado - Odo/Ota and Ali,:wsho Local Councils of Ogun and Lagos States as well as 300 residents of both Local Councils. Hypotheses tested showed the following results: 1. That the level of infrastructural development on ground in these Local Councils did not measure up to the amount of revenue available to them. 2. That proper revenue management has not taken place at the Local Government level of the two States. 3. That Local Government Councils are instruments of grass - root development.
