CRITICAL INVESTIGATION OF MOTIVATION LEADERSHIP AND CORRUPTION IN CORPORATE AFFAIRS COMMISSION (C.A.C) , ABUJA

Chapter one

INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background Of The Study

Corruption is characterised as dishonesty, a lack of integrity, or the misuse of a public position for personal gain. Corruption “includes bribery, fraud, and other similar offences,” according to the Corrupt Practices and Other Related offences Act 2000. This has affected both private and public sector organisations across the country.

It is hard to admit that some of our past leaders made fortunes through corruption, such as using their positions for personal gain, bribery, fund mismanagement, and contract price inflation. One of the most important tactics for eradicating corruption in our culture today is motivation and effective leadership.

It is widely accepted in our society that a leader who is concerned about the needs of the people may accomplish effective and efficient results at all levels of endeavour. A good leader can direct and influence the task-related actions of a group of people inside her organisation.

A competent leader dislikes nonchalant attitudes towards work and obligations at all levels of responsibility, as well as corruption at any level that may arise during the task actualization process.

The purpose of this research is to identify some frequent difficulties observed during the course of the study, and it is written under the assumption that corruption was prevalent in the CORPORATE AFFAIRS COMMISSION from 1991 to 2000.

1.2 Statement of Problem

It was discovered that the CORPORATE AFFAIRS COMMISSION has suffered a setback due to inept management in positions of authority, as well as a lack of motivation and good leadership skills, which has resulted in numerous instances of corruption, bribery, and financial mismanagement within the Commission.

In 2001, Mr. Ahmed Almustapha oversaw the establishment of a new management team. A group that is very motivated. Leadership and corruption at all levels of government have resulted in the establishment of the Commission.

1.3 Objectives Of The Study

The overall goal of this study is to conduct a critical inquiry into motivation, leadership, and corruption in the corporate affairs commission. Specifically, the study aims at:

Examining if inadequate leadership skills contributed to a high level of corruption in the CORPORATE AFFAIRS COMMISSION.
Examining whether proper motivation and good leadership techniques can, in one way, eliminate corruption at all levels of the CORPORATE AFFAIRS COMMISSION.

Examining whether providing an adequate livelihood and a solid welfare package will increase productivity.

1.4 Research Hypotheses.

The validity of the following hypothetical propositions will be investigated in the fourth chapter of this research paper.

H01: Poor leadership skills did not contribute to the high level of corruption in the CORPORATE AFFAIRS COMMISSION.

H02: Adequate motivation and good leadership techniques alone cannot eliminate corruption at all levels of the CORPORATE AFFAIRS COMMISSION.

H03: Providing adequate livelihoods and a good welfare package will not increase productivity.

1.5 Significance of the Study

The goal of this project is to look at motivation and effective leadership strategies for eradicating corruption in Nigerian government parastatals, using the CORPORATE AFFAIRS COMMISSION as a case study.

The goal is to draw attention to how motivation and effective leadership teams may eliminate corruption in the general public’s day-to-day operations, resulting in a corrupt-free working environment with efficient and fast service delivery.

During the course of this investigation, it was observed that management implemented manpower training and development to improve a sufficient anti-corruption campaign at all levels of operation within the Commission.

This study will contribute to the current literature on this study domain while also serving as a reference resource for scholars, researchers, and students who may choose to do additional research on this issue or a comparable area in the future.

1.6 Scope Of Study

This study looks critically at motivation, leadership, and corruption in the corporate affairs commission (C.A.C). The research will also look into whether inadequate leadership skills contributed to a high level of corruption within the CORPORATE AFFAIRS COMMISSION.

Furthermore, the study will look into whether adequate motivation and good leadership techniques may help remove corruption at all levels of the CORPORATE AFFAIRS COMMISSION.

And whether providing enough livelihoods and a good welfare package can increase production. Hence, the staff of the CORPORATE AFFAIRS COMMISSION, Abuja, would function as enrolled participants in this study.

1.7 Limitation of Study

The researchers faced financial, material, and time constraints throughout the project.

1.8 Definition of Terms

Motivation is the reason why people or animals commence, continue, or discontinue a specific behaviour at a given time. Motivational states are typically viewed as internal forces that cause an agent to participate in goal-directed behaviour. It is commonly assumed that multiple mental states compete with one another, and that only the strongest mood drives behaviour.

Leadership is both a study topic and a practical talent that refers to an individual, group, or organization’s ability to “lead,” influence, or direct other individuals, teams, or entire organisations.

Corruption, as defined by the World Bank, is a form of dishonesty or a criminal offence committed by a person or organisation in a position of authority in order to obtain illegal benefits or abuse power for personal gain.

Corporate Affairs Commission: The Corporate Affairs Commission is a body of the Nigerian government that regulates and manages Nigerian enterprises.

It was established in 1990 with the passage of the Companies and Allied Matters Act. It is led by a Chairman and supported by the Registrar General/CEO.
