A sample of one hundred and twenty(120) was drawn from the population and questionnaires were administered to them, out of the 120 questionnaires, 109 were returned, while 100 were validated. For the purpose of drawing reasonable conclusion from this research, three hypotheses were formulated and tested. The hypotheses were tested with the use of chi-Square analysis.
