CHAPTER   ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1  BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

The essence of a credit society is to create a pull of fund.  It has from it’s beginning, been charged with designing and building members owned and controlled co-operative Finance System.  The greatest handicap to goal attainment is fund.  This society encourages the extension of micro and other credit facilities to rural and urban to galvanize their economic activities, which will create employment and raise the statement of human existence.

Consequently, co-operators have given much thought and effort to setting up their own financial institutions so as to marshal the financial resources necessary to provide the many services that modern co-operative business requires.  It was largely the credit problems of farmers Co-operative that arose major public concern and caused the first widespread co-operative finance association to be formed in the farming sector, although consumers co-operatives have also encountered the need for more credits.

Those days, the citizens helped them selves by communal efforts as well as embarking on personal or collective savings.  In Ibo land for instance, “Isusu” clubs provided a forum for collection of saving from members of the society.  The members agreed on how the money was to be given out as loans to the members.  Though the weakness of “Isusu” was that members did not always get the money they needed it.  As a result of the problems of lack of credit, there arose a need for co-operative thrift and loan society to combat the problems and shortcomings of the “Isusu Clubs. 

A co-operative Thrift and Loan Society is a co-operative society that provides its members with convenient and secured means of interest.  This is most suitable for workers in one organization.  These workers pay for their saving and loans from the source of their income.

They do not as a rule, have a regular weekly or daily income, but receive a comparatively large sum of money at the end of the month, which enable the deduction of their payment from the extravagant spending which so often occurs when there is money in the pocket.

1.2     STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

But in spite of all the effort of credit co-operatives, it is still experiencing low or decreasing productivity as it relates to the satisfaction of the members need especially in the rural and sub-urban areas.  These are relatively low levels of productivity as some of the members are no more interested in their society.  What are the causes of this low productivity in their services?  Is it as a result of poor management, poor inspection by the co-operatives assistance, lack of co-operation among the co-operators?

1.3     PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
