ABSTRACT
In this study on “Comparative Analysis of the Role of Mass Communication and Interpersonal Communication in Rural Development, a study of my town; Obeagu in Awgu Local government Area, Enugu State. I studied the respective role of Mass Communication and interpersonal communication in rural development in order to find their exact roles, their differences and similarities, advantages and shortcomings and the likely ways both can help to enhance speedy of rural development.
The survey method of social science research was employed in this study. Questionnaire and oral interviews were used in the data collection.
My findings revealed that:
(1) Mass Communication is ore effective in creating information awareness than interpersonal communication.
(2) Interpersonal Communication is more persuasive than Mass Communication
(3) Interpersonal Communication is more effective in decision making than Mass Communication.
(4) Government ownership of most media does not affect the rural dwellers belief of media content or messages.
Mass Communication and interpersonal communication play a vital role in rural development and both should be combined effectively in order to achieve the desired goal in rural development.
