Public corporation and modern industries came into an existence
since Nigeria got her independence in October 1960 which brought about
development among the entire societies. Since then, whether profit seeking or

Historical Background of Enugu State
Agricultural Development Corporation
Following the success of earlier agricultural development projects
in some states of the federation, the federal government with the assistance of
the international Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD), decided the
extent the strategy of Agricultural Development (ADP) for integral oral
development to all part of the country, until the first general of (ADP), the multi-states
Agricultural Development Project (MSADP) are phased in wide coverage. But in
contract with the nterprises, the entire staff should be subjected to
development and programmes. Staff training especially in the public sectors
have not received adequate attention of management. Even the selection and
employment of conditions for training programmes have become political issues
where merit had been knocked down.
He went further saying that every staff of any public enterprises
needs to be well educated and adequately trained. He concluded that staffs seek
for employment in an organization to contribute on the ooverall goals, as
well as to solve his personal needs from what he in turn receives from the
organization. This expectation he received is the reward which motivates him to
work harder.
Ani .N. Agbo G, Nwandu E. (2002): They said that, “it is important
indeed to train a staff. They defined training as an organizational
effort aimed at helping employees to acquire basic skills required for
the efficient execution of the functions for which the staff were employed for,
they said that when the staff must have being trained, the enterprise will
benefit from it, thereby leading to an improvement in productivity, better
co-ordination etc.” They also commented on motivating of staff which leads to a
greater performance of employees. Finally, they stated that compensation is a
motivational seed that changes the organization and its staff.
According to the oral interview being conducted at the Enugu State
Agricultural Development Corporation, some of the staff strongly and happily
joined the researcher in the exposition of the importance of training and
proper rewards for staff in different ways, both within and outside of the
office environment, he commented that training makes and modes staff to know
things which are far from their reasoning, he commented badly that due to
lack of financial support from the government, the organization some times
found it very difficult to send her staff for a training programmes.
The staff bitterly concluded that training and compensation are
very vital keys in which must be given to reference in the management of how to
co-ordinate the staff, but the management found it very hard to reward
her staff, due to this, some of the staff took their job as nothing to talk
about.
Another staff of Enugu State Agricultural Development Corporation
said that, he will love it the more if the training will be constantly within
or outside the office environment, due to the high rate of technology in the
society he went further saying that due to lack of training, the untrained
staff hardly performs well. He said that coming to the area of rewarding staff,
that the normally hide whenever work is available.
A book from internet being written by Elsgolts L. (1970): stated
in his book “Human Resources management 7th edition;
that the relationship between the behavious of staff and the outcomes of their
actions is affected by individual factors and organizational factors are reward
system, and training.” The book also stated that for motivated behaviour to
occur three elements are important
