The study adopted a survey research design where a primary method of data collection was used, in which a sample of 60 closed-ended questionnaires was prepared based on the research questions and administered to the respondents in the study area. However, for the purpose of analysis, the study uses a 5-Point Likert Scale Rating in the form of tables to analyze respondent information. Based on the findings, the study concludes that the challenges identified in the study underscore the need for urgent reforms in the management of state-local government joint accounts in Bali. Without addressing these challenges, there is a risk of continued fiscal inefficiency, governance deficits, and suboptimal development outcomes at the local level. However, in line with the conclusion, this study recommends that the federal government review existing legislation and policies governing state-local government joint accounts to ensure alignment with fiscal federalism principles. The state government should enhance transparency and accountability in the allocation and utilization of joint account funds. Strengthen capacity-building initiatives for local government officials to improve financial management practices. Foster greater collaboration and consultation with local governments in the formulation of fiscal policies and revenue-sharing arrangements....Preview Download Preview +Other Public Administration project topics and materials you might be interested in»Impact of industrial conflict on the performance of workers in the government parastatal (a case study of Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC)»The influence of effective personnel management practice in organization performance»Human resources as a catalyst for economic growth and development in Nigeria (a case study of Abuja municipal area council) »Local government financial autonomy and grass root development in Nigeria (a case study of Afikpo north local government area)»Manpower training and development as a tool for effective performance in public sector in Nigeria»The impact of poor revenue generation on the development of Local Government Areas»Enhancing political stability in Nigeria through good governance ( a case study of Abia state)»Effects of delayed payment of lecturers salaries and wages on students performance»Niger-Delta crisis and its impact on socio-economic development in Nigeria»Fuel subsidy removal and the Nigerian economy (a case study of Abakiliki local government area, Ebonyi state) »Accountability and corruption in local government in Nigeria (Case study of Bonny local government area of Rivers state)»Political instability a major hindrance to effective policy implementation and good governance (a case study of Nigeria 1983 -1999)»Bureaucracy and efficiency (a case study of Enugu state civil service)»Impact of collective bargaining techniques on industrial relations practice (a case study of two selected firms from NUPENG and NUBIFE)»The influence of employee behaviour on the internal audit function of an organization (a case study of P.Z. industries plc Aba)
