Abstract

The study examined the assessment of Challenges of insecurity in the administration of primary schools in Shiroro local government in Niger State post-Covid-19 Era. A survey research design was adopted for the study. A population of one hundred and nineteen (119) primary school teachers of Shiroro local government were sampled using simple random techniques. A structural questionnaire consisting of fifteen (15) items was used for data collection. The reliability coefficient of the instrument was 0.80 using Pearson Product Correlation Coefficient, while three experts validated the instrument. The study was guided by three research questions and one hypothesis tested at a 0.05 level of significance. The data collected was analyzed using mean and chi-square. The finding revealed that as a result of insecurity in Shiroro local government there was disruption of the academic programme, suspension of teaching and learning as well as distraction of admission and enrolment.
