ROLE
OF GOVERNMENT IN CO-OPERATIVE DEVELOPMENT
ABSTRACT
The Role of Government in Co-operative
Development emphasis on the economic growth of the nation and the
eradication/alleviation of poverty among the populace.
The significant of the contribution of government
towards the growth of co-operative society in the country (Nigeria) cannot be
over emphasized because it has brought about the reduction of dependency rate
of the country. This increasing the national income of the country.
The government take no special interest in the co-operative movement
outside providing it with the necessary legal basis for registration and
under some circumstances, granting minor privilege in the form of reduced
tax rate.
The aim of this project is to find out
the role of Anaocha Co-operative society development, Anaocha local
government area in Anambra state. The subjects used for the study
consisted of four hundred and ninety-nine (499) Anaocha co-operators from six
(six) registered Anaocha co-operatives in the same local government.
Sample size was used in selecting these four hundred and ninety-nine (499)
co-operators from the population of six registered Anaocha co-operatives
societies in the local government. Questionnaire and oral interview were
the major instruments used for the study.
A total of 550 questionnaires were
administered to registered members of the co-operative societies. Out of
this number, 499 were completed and returned, one more questionnaire was
administered to the Divisional co-operative officer of Anaocha local government
area. He also stressed on the need for the co-operative officers in
Anaocha local government area to encourage the women to invest more to
productive ventures than collection of individual loans from the co-operatives.
This will help provide employment opportunities for the members and the people
of Anaocha in general.

Eastern Nigeria (CAP.28) of 1956 co-operative society is an association which
has its objective the promotion of the economic interest of or the
