INTRODUCTION

1.1   Background of the Study

This research work focuses on the effects of credit administration and control on the development of cooperative society. Credit administration and control functions as a good instrument that brings about rapid development in the cooperative  sector. It can be regarded as the essence of   financial  instruction in an  economy, therefore the formulation  and implementation  of sound and  solid credit polices  and  control are among the  most crucial responsibilities of the management of an organization.

Among the most essential functions of credit cooperative is to provide loans to members and ensure the repayment of the loans given to them,  it is  therefore important to develop policies that will ensure the security of loans extended to members.

Due to  lack of credit administration and control, credit facilities made available is spread among members of the cooperative societies and considered more  of gift than loans to be paid within a specific period of time and therefore cooperatives find themselves cripple economically.

The implementation of credit administration and control is a necessary condition of the society so as to  achieve its objectives, to serve the  members  in an efficient manner and  more importantly ensure safety of funds for  continuity  and development  of the society.

According to Iyowu (1985) an articulate credit management policy  not only  seeks  to  balance profit and liquidity.

Furthermore, in most cases, the members  savings are embezzled or misappropriated. As a result societies do not live long due to dishonesty in  handling funds.

Providing members with easy access to credit facilities  being among the aims and objectives of most cooperative societies cannot be realized if such credit given to the members are not efficiently and effectively administered to ensure productive utilization and ability of the members to repay loans extended to them.
