    • 1.7     DELIMITATIONS/LIMITATION OF THE STUDY
      The researchers encountered a lot of problems in the course of carrying out this study effectively and efficiently. Prominent amongst them are non disclosure of information and uncooperative attitude of most of the staff of the power Holdings company of Nigeria in responding to some of our questions.
      Another problem is that of finance, the researchers being students and thus dependent on their older relations and greatly limited in their source of finance to travel from school to the organization under study in order to obtain relevant information needed. This was rather difficult and tasking because of the huge transportation fare spent and the risk involved on roads in trying to get in touch with staff who sometimes, seemed not to be keeping appointment schedules. However, reasonable amount of the money was out into achieving out aims.
      1.9DEFINITION OF TERMS
      1.Motivation: According to Charles Ray and Charles Elson (1984) motivation is an internal energize capable of directing behaviour in particular reactions. Carry Dessler (1988) defined it as “a drive which arouses one behaviour in particular way that the person feels will lead towards”. Motivation is also defined as the stimulus that induces a person to behave the way he does.
      2.Leadership: It is managerial ability to accomplish group goals by working with and through people.
      3.Hydroelectric power: Electricity produced from generators that are driven by hydraulic turbines. To ensure the requisite head of water constancy of flow, the turbines are emplaced in dams that impound the stream flow, thus creating reservoirs that can be used for recreation of water supply purpose.
      4.Thermal electricity power: electricity produced by burning any kind of available fuel or by nuclear energy.
      5.Productivity: in economics, it is a term to describe how well or how efficiently any economy’s resources are used in the process of production. The extent to which a given economy reached its full potential and the extent to which it expands that potential depend in part on this productivity.
      6.Current: flow of electricity through and along a wire or cable
      7.transformer: an apparatus that increases or decreases the voltage of an electric power supply
      8.fluctuation: irregular movement, move up and down
      9.Fluorescent: taking in radiations and sending them out in the form of light.
      10.Sinecure: position for which one receives credit or payment but which does not entail work or responsibility.
