Abstract
This project work examined corruption and local government administration in Nigeria. Corruption is a practical problem involving the outright theft, embezzlement of funds or other appropriation of the state property, nepotism and granting of favour to personal acquaintances. It has been argued that corruption involves behaviors which deviate from the moral and constitutional requirement.
Literatures on corruption and administration of local government were discussed. Survey design was employed with the use of a well-structured questionnaire. Respondents were selected based on simple random sampling technique. A sample three hundred (300) was drawn for the purpose of gathering data. One Hundred (100) out of the Three Hundred (300) were selected from staff of Ikeja Local Government Council and Two Hundred (200) from residence of Ikeja Local Government Area.
Three hypotheses were formulated and tested with the use of Chi-Square analysis. The analysis resulted to rejecting all null hypotheses and hence accepting the three alternate hypotheses.
Based on decisions of the tested hypotheses conclusions were reached that Corruption in the local government administration is the brain behind non performance of local government administration development wise, also Inadequate revenue affects the council administration, and the accounting system of the local government encourage corruption. Recommendations were proffered to Ikeja Local Government, State Government and Federal Government.
