    • 1.7Limitations of the Study
      The study is limited in scope because of underlisted factors.
      a.Cost
      It is a well-known fact that a study of this nature usually consumes large sum of money. It is very unfortunate that these days institution do not sponsor student’s project rather students are made to bear the entire cost. Thus, the study is expected to consume a lot of money for a detailed study and non availability of fund prevented the researcher from embarking on the study of the whole local government area or state.
      b.Time
      As a familied man, with a lot of responsibilities, the researcher found it cumbersome to combine his daily responsibilities with the study.
      c.Literacy Level
      The literacy level of some of Ukehe communities is highly discouraging in carrying out a study of this magnitude. As a result, problems were encountered in the completion of the questionnaire.
      d.Apathy
      Many respondents displayed a great deal of apathy in answering questions. This reduced the possibility of completed avoidance of bias on the side of the respondents.
