ABSTRACT

This study investigates the issue of staff training and development in

local government in Nigeria by the local government service

commission with a particular focus on Enugu state Local

Government Service Commission from 1999 to 2009. Adopting

structural functional analysis as its theoretical framework of analysis,

three hypotheses were formulated to guide the investigation. To

validate these hypotheses and the principal research questions of the

study, data were collected through primary, sources (observation and

questionnaire as well as interviews) and secondary sources:

textbooks, internet materials, journals, newspaper, and government

documents. The data from questionnaire which contained twenty

structured questions designed in both open and close ended style

was validated and administered accordingly. The data from the

questionnaires were subjected to statistical analysis. Results revealed

that, although Enugu state Local Government Service Commission

implement staff training and development in local government,

inadequate funding of training and development programmes and

selection of staff for training not based on the recruitment needs of

local government hinder staff training and development in the local

government of Enugu state. Based on these findings, the study

recommends among others, enhanced regulatory capacity on the part

of the government for effective enforcement of staff training and

development policies in local government; increase funding of

training and development programmes and adopt measures to

ensure that selection of staff for training and development is based on

the recruitment needs of local government and periodic evaluation of

training and development programmes.
