little amount of pocket money to me by my parents is not sufficient
enough to carry out a research project extensively. (b) Time Constraints
The most important using to note is the time limitation combining
lectures, assignment and also coupled with term paper makes getting
materials for the research project difficult. (c) Unavailability of
Textbooks and Journals The information gathered in writing research
project must come from several textbooks and journal, but most of these
textbooks were hard to find and the ones found were outdated editions.

much persistence. (e) Lack pf research skill. Being the first time I’m
writing a research project, I lack the skill required to go about a
research project. (f) Lack of data storage and retrieval budgets.
Getting access to computers connected to the internal is a big problem
for me considering the type of school environment. Most data that should
be gotten from the computer are not there because of the lack of it.
