Background of the Study
Effective financial decision-making is critical for the sustainable development of local government areas. Kebbe LGA faces challenges in making timely and informed financial decisions due to the lack of reliable and accurate data. The introduction of an Accounting Information System (AIS) can enhance the quality of financial decision-making by providing real-time data and reports. This study will evaluate the effectiveness of AIS in improving financial decision-making in Kebbe LGA.

Financial decision-making in Kebbe LGA is often hampered by inaccurate data, delayed reports, and insufficient financial oversight. The implementation of AIS could potentially address these issues by automating data processing, thus ensuring that decision-makers have access to accurate and up-to-date financial information. However, the effectiveness of AIS in improving decision-making has not been fully explored.
