Background of the Study
Rural banks in Kontagora Local Government Area play a critical role in providing financial services to local farmers and businesses. However, the adoption and deployment of modern Accounting Information Systems (AIS) remain a significant challenge due to infrastructure limitations, lack of technical expertise, and financial constraints. This study will explore the specific challenges faced by rural banks in implementing AIS and how these barriers affect their operational efficiency and financial transparency.
Statement of the Problem

The absence of a functional AIS can hinder the effective management of financial transactions and impede the growth of rural banks in the region.
