It is in recognition of this problem that the Nigerian governments (federal, state and local) are now mounting series of programmes designed to intimate people to appreciate the importance of cooperative business and its employment potentials.
A typical example is the establishment of people's bank, cooperative inspirations in both the rural and urban areas, Owerri North local Government inclusive.
