1.2. Statement of the Problem
It
is not out of place to say that in most rural communities in Nigeria,
there are no community newspapers through which the rural folks could be
informed about government policies and programmes and above all
mobilized towards improved condition of living. This unfortunate
situation has compelled many people to lastly conclude that the print
media have no relevance in community development in Nigeria.
It is
also known that there are some other communities in Nigeria which are
not development, just like Urhobo community at this jet age when even
the smaller countries around us are boasting of continues supply of
electricity.

farmers do not have the means of knowing how to make use of the modern
farming implements and other things like fertilizer, so farm produce in
that community do not yield well. To add to the fact that the traders
among them have no means to advertise their products.
This research
is therefore undertaken to find out whether community newspaper has
impact on development, with particular reference to the Urhobo voice.
