Statement of the Research Problem
Owolabi et al. (2014) observed that the major variables responsible for the inefficiency and ineffectiveness of the maintenance work in Nigerian tertiary institution buildings are; the occurrence of poor contract management, unavailability of material and the incidence of inaccurate estimate. Additionally, Olatunji et al. (2016) reported that lack of funding is not the only problem militating against the maintenance work of Nigerian tertiary institution buildings but cost overrun and underestimating also contribute to maintenance problem in tertiary institutions and this frequently result in failure of management to recognise the value and need for realistic budget and in return affect the maintenance work of tertiary institution buildings in Nigeria. Hence, Kunya (2012) carried out maintenance operation on sub structural and super structural components in housing facilities, on substructure he catalogue rising dampness, foundation failure and floor slab failure while in super structure he catalogue peeling of wall surfaces, openings defects (doors and windows), sagging of beam and leaking roof. From his findings he opined that maintenance culture requires the correct diagnosis of defects, sound 3 technical knowledge of material usage, current remedial measures, management resources as well as the formulation and implementation of integrated plan and policies to sustain utility. According to Oluwole, (2018), maintenance culture is the way of thinking, values, perception, behavior and the underlying assumption of any group or society or person that considers maintenance as a matter that is vital and practices it in their life. Notwithstanding, it will be reasonable enough if maintenance culture is revived with concise and effective mode of operation, this will result to an appreciable reduction in cost of building maintenance; eradication of building collapse will evolve, high risk of endangering the life of students and their properties in the tertiary institutions of Kwara state will come to the end. It is to this effect that this study assessed the maintenance management of tertiary instittution buildings in Kwara state
