However, the community banking system have archive to greater extent inculcation of discipline baking habits in the rural community and the promotion of rural development by providing financial assistance as well as other facilities to the community and the management of the community resources. This not to say that thing have all been goosy to the Cbs, there are numerous problem including; local influence, lack of awareness, dependency on the correspondent bank, lack of adequate capital, unqualified and lack of staff training.

RECOMMENDATION

Based on the finding of this research the researchers hereby make the following recommendation

1. The fact that the CBs in the study area has archive the objective of the federal government for the establishing of the community banking system cannot be doubted, they should engage themselves more on programme like agricultural production, financial assistance and extension service with individual with meaningful project the present situation in which the CBs Enugu themselves in mass transit should be discourage as this will affect the performance of the main function as Cbs rather they should assist individual with future interest in the business

2. Ekulu community bank should ensure that well qualifies personnel will help to build and develop the new concept of banking system are recruited. To archives this, salary and other benefit paid t the Cbs should be at the same level with what is obtainable in the commercial bank.

3. The federal government should establish a special type of correspondent bank sonly in charge and rendering s4ervice to the community banks in Nigeria as the case in the developed country like America.

4. The board of director and the management of the CBs should endeavor to keep the guidelines contained in the operational guideline issue by the national board of CBs to ensure greater responsibility and accountability.

5. it is expected that CBs should grant loan on the basis of local knowledge and the ability of the individual, there is noting that prevent the request for the collateral security and grant commitment when this is considered necessary .

In other to control the frequent case of non-repayment of loan, Cbs should request for collateral on the request on guarantor commitment in special circumstances considered appropriate. Apart form this; local influential people should serve as guarantor. Community bank should use any acceptable means to recover their loan.
