Evaluation Of Local Government Chairmen In Akwa Ibom State For Better Performance
ABSTRACT
The study sought to evaluate the Performance of local Government chairmen in Akwa Ibom State. Ex-post facto research design was adopted for the study. The study was conducted in Akwa Ibom State. The population of the study comprised of acting Local Government Councils and teachers in each of the Local Government Areas within the three senatorial districts in Akwa Ibom State. Stratified random sampling technique was used to select 180 teachers and 30 Local Government Councils in the State giving the total of 210 respondents that constituted the sample size for the study. The Instrument used in this study for data collection was a questionnaire titled “An Evaluation of Local Government Chairmen in Akwa Ibom State for Better Performance Questionnaire “(ELGCBPQ)â€. Face and content validation of the instrument was carried out by an expert in test, measurement and evaluation from University of Uyo to ensure that the instrument has the accuracy, appropriateness and completeness for the study. Cronbach Alpha technique was used to determine the level of reliability of the instrument. The reliability coefficient obtained was 0.80 and this was high enough to justify the use of the instrument. The researcher subjected the data generated for this study to appropriate statistical techniques such as independent t-test analysis. The test for significance was done at 0.05 alpha levels. The study concluded that the challenges relating to better performance of local government chairmen are not insurmountable given the sincerity of purpose on the part of the Federal and State government. The study also recommended that local government chairmen should invigorate their extractive functions in order to boost internally generated revenues to enable them support community development initiatives and activities effectively.
