    (Obafemi Awolowo University, 1985) Jaiyeoba, Modupe Olubunmi; Fasokun, T. O.
    An assessment of the organizational efficiency and effectiveness of Adult Literacy programme in Ondo State from 1977 to 1983 was undertaken. To guide the study it was hypothesized that: 1) There is no relationship between the rank of the Local governments population (demand) and by the number of literacy classes (supply). 2) There is no significant difference in both the organizational efficiency and effectiveness measured teacher/Participant ratio and performance between the Civilian and Military administration and between the local governments with above and below state value. 3) There is no correlation between the aggregate of both efficiency and effectiveness indices in the ranks of local governments, for the period of the study. The study incorporated the use of a Questionnaire and consequent upon carious statistical analyses the following results were obtained: 1) there was a relationship between the rank of the Local governments by population (demand) and by the number of literacy classes (supply) in 1977 and no relationship in 1983. 2) There was a significant difference in both the organizational efficiency and effectiveness as measured by teacher/ participant ratio and performance between the Civilian and Military administration and between the local governments with above and below state value. 3) a positive correlation existed between the aggregate ranks of both efficiency and effectiveness index for the period of study. In view of the findings, the following implications and recommendations an ear justified 1) There is a need for a fairer distribution of literacy classes. 2) It is also recommended that efforts should be made to improve the organizational system of Adult Literacy programmed. Some areas deemed related to the present problems and results were suggested for further research. These include: 1) A replication of the study in other states of Nigeria. 2) A replication of the study in other areas of education. 3) Extension of the study from 1933 till present time.

    A Study of Recruitment, Training and Retention of Adult Education Personnel in Oyo State.
    (Obafemi Awolowo University, 1985) Olagunju, Pius Soladoye; Fasokun, T. O.
    This study examined the recruitment, training and retention of Adult Education personnel in Oyo State. Data were collected from available records in the Ministries of Education, Local Government and the Social Welfare, Youth Sports and Culture. In addition, interview guides and questionnaires were used. Using percentages and tests of correlations where appropriate, the results indicated that the recruitment of personnel for adult education was not based on knowledge, competence and interest in adult education. In addition, there was not enough motivation for adult education instructors to retain them on the job as might be required. Based on these findings, it was recommended that the Government of Oyo State should re-appraise her attitude towards recruitment of staff into various adult education programmes with a view to making it possible to put adult education in competent and interested hands. The study also recommended that the rate of remuneration given to instructors should be increased in order to encourage them to be efficient and effective in the performance of their duties. Finally, the study highlighted possible areas of future research attempts. Such attempts should include a comparative study of recruitment, training and retention of Adult Education personnel in Oyo State with any other State within the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
