CHAPTER ONE

1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY/INTRODUCTION
The Co-operative thrift and Credit Society is now in existence in many institutions of higher learning. Based on this, one might start to wonder what this research topic is all about, since such a programme is not a new one.

 

All the same, the truth remains that the existence of Co-operative, Thrift and Credit Society in our higher institutions, one side is lower than the other, badly balanced. This is to say that its present existence concern itself with only a particular section of the institution.

 

Institute of higher learning presently doing this programme only operate for the benefits of academic an non-academic staff (who are interested in the movement) in these institutions. Thrift and Credit programme for educational institutions with particular references to the students populace. To this time, student in institutions of higher learning have been deprived of enjoying the benefits of being members of co-operative movement as much as there is the urgency of the needs to inform students with the objective of the co-operative movement.

 

It is important for the cause of this research project to have a knowledge of the cooperative movement, the world over and in particular, Nigeria. This is because such knowledge and understanding gained, provides an invaluable background of the history and patterns of co-operative in different parts of the world.

 

In the modern form, however, the origin of co-operative, thrift and credit societies can be traced to the 19th century and to Germany.
In Germany, many of the farmers have very small area of land but by hand work and skillful farming, there was just enough to keep the farming going. The farmers got their credit from local merchants who charged high rate from them and paid low prices for the farm produce. The result was that the farmers were most heavily indebted and sank into poverty.

 

Fredrick Willhelm Raiffeison (1818 –1888) seeing all the poverty and hardship of farmers, he tried to help in the light of these he thought out a plan for co-operative thrift and credit society in which the good men of the village could join together to make fund available as loans to co-operative members. For each loan made there was the security of the property of the borrowed and two guarantors, who had to be members of the society.

 

History of Institute of Management and Technology (IMT) Enugu. The institute came into existence under the East central state edict NO.10 of 1973, promulgated by the Administrator of East Central State Ajie Ukpabi Asika.

 

Earlier to the establishment of the Institute of Management and Technology heading to the award of Ordinary Diploma, the institute of Administration which provided short in service training for civil servants of various grades, the cooperative studies to cooperative inspectors from the ministry.

 

The institution were autonomous and located differently, the college of technology which was part of the ministry of education were directly controlled by the ministry. The institute of Administration was controlled by the ministry of establishment while the cooperative college was directly under the ministry of Rural Development.

 

All the institutions were staffed by civil servants who were posted there from the ministry and could be reposted to other departments or ministries according to the need of the civil servants.

 

The need to establish a higher institution of learning by upgrading the training of our people technologically, managerial and engineering fields arose in 1970. this need was vigorously pursued in October, 1971. the Ukpabi Asika’s administration decided to merge the farmers college of technology and the college came under the unified control of the cabinet office on 1st April, 1972.

 

In October, 1972 a provisional council was charged with determining and recommending to the government appropriate structure of autonomous institution that would provide higher quality of technologists and technicians, as well as professional and managerial manpower in subject area indicate by the state and national need.

 

Institute of Management and Technology was occupying presently three different campuses but new two campuses. And the two campuses were merged in 1971. Institute of management and technology started with three school but have grown to eight schools and all made up of thirty five (35) departments.

 

 

1.2 STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
It is important at this stage to try and identify the problems that this project seek to address in relation to cooperative thrift and credit society particularly in institute of management and technology, Enugu.
The problems are:
1. To find out if students of institute of management and technology are aware of cooperative thrift and credit society progeamme and the benefit that the potentials…

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

 

• Background of the Study

There are many definitions of cooperatives but for the purpose of this research work. We define Cooperatives, I.C.A. (1995) as “An autonomous association of persons united voluntarily to meet their common economic, social, and cultural needs and aspirations through a jointly owned and democratically controlled enterprise. While Babcolle, H. B. said “A corporative is a legal, practical means by which a group of self selected persons seek to improve their economic position in a competitive society”.

 

From the above definitions one would note that cooperative is a business organization established by the economically weak member of the society with the sole aim of improving their economic circumstances.

 

However economic development does not connote a general increased in the output of goods and services. It is a means of improving the condition of work and living standard of majority of the people. The main objectives that economic development should promote a greater sense of confidence and self-reliance in the economy. Thus economic development is therefore a process in which the problems of poverty, deprivation as well as human degradation is being eliminated or minimized. This means that economic development must seek to transform the society and its people to a better status. Hence this calls for a conscious effort on the part of the authority and people themselves.

 

The cooperative business was initially established to fight against profits and exploitation. It aimed at transferring economic power to the members who established the business. This is evidence by the fact that in developed countries likes Germany, Britain, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Israel. The cooperative sectors played a vital role in socio economic transformation of their people.

 

Given these considerations therefore, the government as well as the general public are required and called upon to give support to the cooperative sector. This is necessary because the cooperatives could be able to improve the socio economic circumstances of the members and also reduce poverty in the society by creating employment and improving productivity. This paves ways for economic growth and development.

 

The idea of CABS Investment and Credit Cooperative Society (Ltd) Kaduna Polytechnic was initiated by Mr. J. J. Buden in May 2005. And by January 2006, the society was fully registered with Kaduna State Government certificate number KDS7030. Membership of the society was ninety-five (95) in December 2006, and rose to 195 members in May 2010. Previously the total assets valued at N10.925m but rose up to N47, 670,000 in June 2010.

 

CABS Investment and Credit Cooperative Society Ltd was established with the aim of advancing and protecting the common economic, social and cultural needs and aspiration of its members, with a specific mission of encouraging and promoting in its members the habits of saving and investment that would be beneficial to them even after their active services.

 

 

• Statement of the Problem

The cooperative business was initially established to fight against profit and exploitation. It aimed at transferring economic power to its members who established the business. This is evidence by the fact that in developed countries like United State of America, Germany, Britain Sweden, Israel, Demark and Norway the cooperative sector played a vital role in socio economic transformation of their people. However, the cooperatives sector is not performing up to…

CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION

Bus 213 is a code given to a course titled Co-operative Development. The course is being offered the whole students in the school of business studies, but housed in the Department of Co-operative Economics and Management (CEM). It was offered during the first semester of my NDII.

The course was provided with the aim to enrich the students involved, with the knowledge of the growth and development of modern co-operative in the world.

The course was in mimeography written by Mr. C.C Bob Igwe, MBA NINIM, a lecturer in the co-operative Economics Department in Institute of Management and Technology, (IMT) Enugu.

As the Bus 213 is Co-operative Development indeed, then what is the meaning of this key words, “Co-operative and Development?”

Co-operative mean people working together to achieve a common objective (STAN .O. UCHENDU (1998:2). It is therefore a general term which covers a wide range of activities in which two or more people work together either formally or informally, temporarily or ad hoc or on a permanent basis to achieve a given legal or illegal, socially accepted or unaccepted goal(s).

The concept of co-operation as economic and social organ started first among people whose means of livelihood were frustrated by the introduction of machine and factory system. They were forced by poverty to submit to long hours of work, harsh discipline and squalor of industrial settlement (Industrial Revolution Period). The basic idea of co-operation is that there is a group action to achieve common goal.

Development on the other hand could be referred to as the act or means of gradual advancement or progression of co-operation from crude or cradle or from a particular speculation to other part of the world. From one stage of maturity to another.

Development of co-operation was not a child of circumstance but a child of necessity as it came on the stage when it was mostly needed to salvage the poor masses from the cruelty of the middlemen and exploitative employers.

 

 
1.1 DEFINITION:
Co-operation can be seen as a union of people with common goal. The people did not unite for thin common goal to fall from heaven. There is business enterprises inclusive in co-operation through which their needs should be reached and satisfied.

According to INTERNATIONAL CO-OPERATIVE ALLIANCE (I C A OF 1895), “Co-operative society is an autonomous association of persons united voluntarily to meet their common economic, social and cultural needs and aspirations through a jointly owned and Democratically controlled enterprises.”

The ICA in addition went further to give out the most important characteristics:
a) A co-operative as an autonomous body means free from government control.
b) Joint voluntarily: They should not be forced to join instead it is through creating awareness.
c) A co-operative is an association of persons not capital. The interest of the members must come before those of capital.
d) The objective of the group is to meet the members needs in the economic field as well as their aspiration in the social and cultural field, religions and political, criminal objective are however excluded.

 
2.0 ORIGIN OF MODERN CO-OPERATION
The history of modern co-operation can be traced as far back as the period of Industrial Revolution known as “Hungry Forties” which took place in England between 1750 – 1850). This Industrial Revolution was brought about by the introduction of machines in industries in England. These machines were very much expensive that it was only the rich people that could afford to provide them. Because these mahines turned out to be cheaper on-mass production, it delivered the inefficient manual spinning, wheels and handlooms useless. Thereby making the peasant workers stranded.

Gradually the manufacturing properly came increasingly under the dominance of the factory system. This is how it has came about that in the civilized countries almost all kinds of labour are performed in factories and in almost all branches of handicraft, manufacturing has to an even greater degree ruined the old niddle class especially the small handicraft men. It has entirely transformed the conditions of the workers. The former independent workers had to migrate to the new industrial centers around Monchester, Rochadale, etc, insearch of employment. The families therefore became dependent on their employers for meager wages, shelter, and consumer items who could then pay them in kind.

CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background of The Study
Cooperatives are classified as one of the business organizations but operate in a special way different from all other forms of business enterprises. The distributive nature of cooperative provided that they must be owned, used and controlled by their members. In view of this, cooperatives are organized and managed through the system of large or small, multipurpose or single purpose and central or federal. All these systems put together are under direct coordination and supervision of the cooperative federation.

Yahaya, (2001) notes the cooperative federation is an organization where there are basic units at each level that determine on their own initiative. The relationship between the federation which is a higher organ and the secondary societies which are lower organs is that there is a dividing line where the lower organs reserve to themselves certain functions and delegate others to the higher organs. Though the cooperative federation controls the activities of cooperative to ensure efficiency, it has by the affiliated societies since such affiliated societies do not surrender their autonomy to the cooperative federation.

In Nigeria where the cooperative development is generally a state affairs, cooperatives are organized on three structures based on geographical locations namely village or town level (primary cooperatives) state or regional level (secondary cooperative), national level (tertiary cooperatives).

In the light of the above, a number of states especially in the northern parts of the country, Kaduna inclusive, the cooperatives activities come under one umbrella known as cooperative federation limited.

In some states, particularly the former western and eastern regions, cooperative movement operates under a central organization called cooperative union. However, there are numbers of tertiary cooperative organizations which equally perform central functions and represent Nigeria cooperative movements at international and regional level. These includes cooperative federation of Nigeria (CFN) which is affiliated to international cooperative Alliance (ZCA), National Association of cooperative credit union of Nigeria (NACCUN) which is affiliated to African cooperative credit and savings association (ACOSCA) and world council of credit unions (WOCCUN).

The establishment of cooperative federation in each state of the country is a reflection of which was obtained in the early cooperative movement in Britain. For instance, the first successful consumer retail cooperative societies in 1844 were united under two national federation known as cooperative wholesale society and cooperative union Ltd. Similarly, the Irish agricultural wholesale society which is popularly known as CWS is the central organization set up by the retail cooperative societies in united kingdom to meet their trading needs.

Other notable countries have similar central controlling bodies for cooperative activities. Like the approach in Israel empowers the Jewish cooperative association known as Hevaratt Ovdim to supervise the activities of various cooperative affiliated to it.

Furthermore, in Denmark, the Danish wholesale society known as (FDB) established in 1964 had entered into agreement with the local cooperation on voluntary basis to create voluntary claim. In this agreement, the FDB provided a number of services to the local cooperatives to ensure their survival and progress.

From all the aforementioned instances, the existence of a central working body to oversee the activities of cooperative societies, the case of Nigeria is not peculiar. The Kaduna state cooperative federation like other state federations regulates cooperative activates under the auspices of the state ministry of Agriculture it should however be noted that in different states, different names are given to the ministries where cooperative federation exists. Whatever their names, such ministries have their responsibilities towards cooperatives and of course cooperative federations.

Like all the other cooperative federations, the Kaduna state cooperative federation is responsible for cooperative efficiency and effectiveness in the areas of promotion, organization, coordination, supervision, limitation, administration, training, interpretation and advice. In Kaduna state, it is doubtful if the cooperative federation is effectively performing these duties as the development of cooperatives, particularly primary cooperatives are yet to obtain desired growth. Besides, most cooperatives societies in the state are incapacitated in one way or the other making it difficult for such societies to impact maximally on the socio-economic lives of the people.

1.2 Statement Of The Research Problem
(ICA, 1995), Cooperatives of whatever types are organized to satisfy members, needs, be it economic, social, cultural or political.

According to Amahahu (2006), people join cooperative for economic motives in most cases while others join for socialization and emotional motives as well as because of outside pressure. In Kaduna state, the Kaduna state cooperative federation. Like other cooperative federation is an apex body concerned mainly with the promotion, administration and legalization of cooperatives through its agency known as the cooperative…

ABSTRACT

Capitalism is seen as an economic system or market economy was there is free allocation of market resources and free private participation in economic activities. The capitalist concept is manifested in the early 19th century, the period of industrial revolution. Since this period to the present date, capitalism has controlled the economic of some developed countries and the undeveloped ones, such countries include Europe, South Africa, America, Israel, Japan, and Nigeria.

 

Despite the effort of the government to help these countries to regulate the excess of capitalism. In the wake of the excesses of capitalism, which resulted, the suffering of the poor masses, co-operative emerged. The co-operative concept tends to oppose the capitalists mod of business practices. Co-operative is a movement, which aims at bringing better living to the poor by returning to them the best economic power and dignity of laboure. This they lost through the shrewd influence of capitalism. This research work was carried out in three commercial towns in Abia state. This piece of work analyses the opportunities that exist for the co-operative alongside with the threats existence of capitalism.
