CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1              BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Poverty is still the first name of most rural dwellers whose day today are like a journey through hell- fire. Over the years, development in the country, even in states was virtually urban centers. Houses, god roads, potable water, electricity and other social amenities were regarded as the exclusive preserve of town dwellers which ruralities made  to do with wonly what benevolent nature could provide them.
As a result a strong bridge appears between the nations urban centers and rural communities and rural inhabitant crossed the bridge in their thousand to have a taste of the urban amenities. This influx quickly created its own problems for both government and the people as it led to food storage, scarcity houses, the growth of urban slums, unemployment, and increased crime wave- for this improvement or development to take place, the people concerned must realize implement and positively forty the discharge or impartation of  better affairs of the community. it is the crating of this awareness as well as the need to better the television broadcasting are expected to perform.
The effect of radio broadcasting is not automatic. Frankly speaking radio broadcasting ahs a positive effect on people, especially the ruralities, we learn a lot from radio messages, discussion, quizzes, talks, documentaries, lectures, drama both comic and tragic, interviews etc
Besides, communities gain information on the existence locally produced products or imported ones mainly through the radio as well as government polices and programmes. Radio can be used for information dissemination on political and economic development.
It would therefore be good to find out how effective the Enugu state broadcasting services (ESBS) radio FM and television are in dealing with these functions in promoting rural development efforts of the state government
It is an open secret that there has been communication imbalance between the urban dwellers and people in the rural areas are this negative trends militated against imbalance in the development of the state.
In  its own part, the Enugu state broadcasting services (ESBS) radio is committed to reach people in the rural areas through its programes along the lines of the need and this is why I have decided to write on this topic.
If we assume that Enugu state broadcasting service (ESBS) radio enjoys ten percent conscious listenership of the populace in urban areas, what about the ruralities and the effect it has on them. this is why  the study of the role of electronic media in the development of rural areas, using the that Enugu state broadcasting service (ESBS) radio FM as a case study is a welcome project. Besides many people living in rural areas have no other  way of hearing about ambitious  government programmes except through the broadcast  medium particualry the radio which they depend on for their information. The mobilization of the masses for government programmes, is such in crucial factor.
Rural programmes like Dirri, rural health ORI EPI had al used the electronic media extensively to reach out and educate both urban and rural dwellers who are hundreds kilometers away from the point of action of discussion. The role of radio in Enugu state in brining about rural development  and transformation cannot be easily quantified. This is why in many advanced  countries, government, private organizations and individuals compete in the provision of electronics media organs. In this part of government because  they are the quickest means by which government speak to the people as well as feel the pulse of the public.
Due to the importance of radio that the research wants to know whether the  that Enugu state broadcasting service (ESBS) radio is doing what it is expected to doing respect of rural development.
