THE IMPACT OF EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT OF
RESOURCES IN SOLVING UNEMPLOYMENT
PROBLEM IN NIGERIA (A CASE STUDY
OF IGBO-EZE SOUTH LOCAL
GOVERNMENT AREA,
ENUGU STATE
ABSTRACT
THIS STUDY IS ON A STRONG IMPRESSION OF EFFECTIVE
MANAGEMENT OF RESOURCES IN SOLVING UNEMPLOYMENT PROBLEM IN NIGERIA. THIS
RESEARCHER WANTS TO KNOW THE IMPACT OF EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT OF RESOURCES IN
IGBO-EZE SOUTH LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA, HOW THEY HAVE CARRIED ITS OPERATIONS TO
BRING THIS PHENOMENON TO ITS BEST MINIMUM. IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE THIS AN
EMPIRICAL SURVEY AND LIBRARY RESEARCH WERE CARRIED OUT. THE SOURCE OF DATA USED
INCLUDE BOTH PRIMARY SOURCE OF DATA AND SECONDARY DATA. THE PRIMARY SOURCE OF DATA ARE THE ADMINISTRATION OF QUESTIONNAIRES AND ORAL INTERVIEWS WHILE THE SECONDARY SOURCE
INCLUDES STATISTICAL TOOLS USED IN TESTING HYPOTHESIS. THE RESEARCH REVEALS
THAT THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT HAS NOT PUT THE NECESSARY MACHINERY IN PLACE TO TACKLE THE
MANAGERIAL SKILL OPERATION IN THE AREA. THIS FACTOR HAS BEEN A FORCE MILITATING
AGAINST SOLVING UNEMPLOYMENT PROBLEM. HOWEVER, IT WAS DISCOVERED ALSO THAT THE
LOCAL GOVERNMENT UNDER STUDY ENGAGES IN VARIOUS ACTIVITIES AND SCHEMES
INCLUDING PROVISION OF PIPE BORNE WATER, RURAL ELECTRIFICATION PROJECTS TO
ATTRACT INVESTORS TO HARNESS THE AVAILABLE NATURAL RESOURCES TO CREATE
EMPLOYMENT FOR THE PEOPLE BESIDES, LACK OF
INFRASTRUCTURE HAS EQUALLY CONTRIBUTED TO NON IMPROVEMENT OF UNEMPLOYMENT
SITUATION.

CHAPTER ONE
1.0 INTRODUCTION
Unemployment
can be defined as the situation where by some people leaving in a specific
given area, who are capable and willing to work but are not gainfully employed.
For an example, in developing countries, like Nigeria, unemployment is a serious
social evil that have seriously eating up Nigeria economy and have affects
growth and development.
The
production sector of the economy is one of the most important in terms of
providing access to basic societal needs such as employment, income and
services. Management is the act of controlling or running a business or an
organization with the aim of making profit by an individual, firm or
government. The implementation of effective management of available resources
can be a remedy to the problem of unemployment in Igbo-Eze South Local
Government Area in Enugu
State as a case study.
Evidently,
most of the developing Asian economic have sincerely realized the need to turn
some attention to the development of resources which will generate employment
at Local Level (Igbo-Eze South Local Government Area in Enugu) as well as provide cheaper goods at
affordable prices to the vast majority of rural areas. Federal government in it
1997 national budget laid more emphasis on the establishment of cottage
industries as a measure of curtailing the influx of people from the rural to
the urban centres in search of what they term better job (employment). This led
to the establishment of the family economic advancement (FAP) whose sole aim is
to exploit the potential of the rural communities so as to facilitaties the
setting up of productive cottage industries that will use local labour, locally
available raw materials and fabricated equipment in the rural areas. With the
presence of enormous raw materials exist in almost all parts of the country
(i.e. Igbo-Eze South Local Government Area in Enugu State)
and therefore, effective resource management should be carried out and sited
areas where there is labour availability in the aim of salvaging the problem of
unemployment in the given area. The family economic advancement programs which
encompasses cottage industries and other relevant production is designed, among
other things to promotes local designed and fabrication of plant and machinery
and equipment by engaging other youths of Igbo-Eze South L.G.A. as a way of
reducing unemployment. Provide facility for the procurement for
machinery/equipment for Nigerians to set up and run cottage and effective
managed industries, utilize all available local resources for the benefit of
all Nigerians through improved production, preservation and provide an enabling
environment for private sector and UN agencies participation in the program.
It is
expected that this will initial the much needed technological development and
effective management of resources in the given area as a case study.
1.1 BACKGROUND
OF THE STUDY
Igbo-Eze
South Local Government Area in one of the Local Governments in Enugu State.
Igbo-Eze South Local Government Area was established in the year 1991 under the
governorship of Dr. Okwudili Nwodo and Felix Agada as the First Chairman.
Formally,
she was under Igbo-Eze North Local Government Area, but because people from the
community were not receiving government attention, they were denied social
amenities like electricity, pipe born water, health facilities etc. the
community started to agitate for establishment of local government in their
community since they have attained constitutional requirement, then after much
deliberation, she was established in 1991.
Igbo-Eze
South Local Government Area lies approximately at latitude of 0.4C° east, some
fifteen kilometers (15kms) South of Nsukka.
Igbo-Eze
South is made up of eight communities such as Itchi, Unadu, Alor-Agu, Nkalagu
Obukpa, Iheakpu-Awka, Iheaka, Ovoko, Ihunowere and Ibagwa-Aka which is the
headquarter of Igbo-Eze South Local Government Area.
The
population of Igbo-Eze South Local Government Area accommodated about thousands
of people including the immigrants that formed fifteen percent (15%) of the
total population. She shares the same common boundary with such Local
Government Areas as Udenu Local Government Area to the East, Nsukka Local
Government Area to the South, Igbo-Eze North Local Government Area as the North
while the Kogi State to the West.
Igbo-Eze
South Local Government Area was blessed by God with natural endowments which
include: the rain forest trees such as palm trees, Iroko trees, Mango trees and
other economic trees which occupied the lower part of her headquarter.
This
Local Government has affected the communities positively through the
achievement of the followings.
1)
Adequate
provision of educational opportunities
2)
Industrialization
3)
Job
opportunities
4)
Good and
adequate health care facilities
5)
Clean
environment
6)
Application of
modern technology for production.
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
The
problem of how unemployment can be solved by the effective management of
resources is the core of the study, the researcher intend to find out what
effect, effectively managed resources will have in the reduction of
unemployment rate in Igbo-Eze South Local Government. The population on which
the study will be based the researcher intend to look at the operations of the
establishment within the area and hope effective the manager of these business/
establishment will contribute in the study area.
1.3 PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
The
purpose of the study is to elicit the jobs, which with the changing economic
trend and high labour cost becomes very expensive for the employer who will
proffer to improve the skill of his staff or computerize his company thereby
cutting labour cost and maximizing his profit. When this becomes unemployment
with little or no hope of getting employment because of the changing trends;
modernization and technological development of labour management based on this
short fall in employment becomes a problem. One way to improve unemployment is
through the effective management of resources in an establishment.
Effective
management of resources in an establishment in Igbo-Eze South encourages
specialization and division of labour which means that more people will be
needed to perform the certain function and more and more will also be
encouraged to exhibit dexterity in certain skill so as to perform the certain
task more effectively at a higher rate of output so as to meet the demand of
their customers by this specialization is encouraged as opposed to the use of
computers which needs few people to feel information into them.
Effective
management of source resources in Igbo-Eze South will reduce unemployment and
the dependence on government corporate bodies as the last hope of job seekers
for engaging in income generating ventures. As a matter of fact, this will put
smile on use of effective management of source resources as a means of reducing
unemployment problem within Igbo-Eze South Local Government.
1.4
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY

benefits from the research and how the study will go a long way in helping to
achieve the strong impression. The effective management of resources will
create in solving unemployment problem in Igbo-Eze South Local Government and Nigeria in
general. It will also reduce the mismanagement of resources that leads to
termination of worker in an establishment thereby create unemployment in the
local government.
