In some of my reflections on institutional reforms, I have had reason to critically reflect on grassroots and community-based reforms as catalysts for national development. Community development innovation was first brought to my attention, while researching my doctoral thesis, by the Aboyade-Mabogunje OPTICOM (optimal community) project at Aáwé. This project took the rural localities as the first condition in any reflection about grassroots development.
I have outlined such innovative examples like the Awujale-Mabogunje Ijebu Ode poverty alleviation programme, and the Awujale Chair of Governance at the Olabisi Onabanjo University. No one can fail to have noticed also the Obi of Onitsha and his giant strides at modernizing outdated cultural practices in Onitsha including the outrageous bride-price.
