Common Problems of Cooperatives
Poor management/ Poor logistics

- Most cooperatives have weak and

unspecialized management.

Inadequate capital

- Lack of adequate capital to run these

cooperatives is because they rely mostly on
member’s contribution which may not be
enough.

UNCOMMITTED MEMBERSHIP

- Most members of cooperatives becomes less

committed to the society more especially after they
have succeeded in registering and getting certificate to
be a cooperate society by the director of cooperative.
LACK OF CLEAR POLICY
GUIDELINES
- Due to been unable to pay qualified cooperative managers to
manage their cooperative societies, most of they lack guidelines of
required standard by ICA or International Cooperative Alliance.

LACK OF INFORMATION AND KNOWLEDGE

ABOUT PRODUCTION AND MARKETING

- Production and marketing functions are technical functions that

require special skills. This is lacking in most cooperative and this is
affecting both the quality of production and product and the methods
of marketing of the final products.
 PERSONALITY AND
COMMUNITY CLASHES

- Internal quarrels and rivalries among members is

serious problem of cooperatives. As a result of these
internal quarrels, personality clashes and tensions,
where it is not checked, members cease to have
interest in the society and could lead to the decline of
the society.

ABSENCE OF COOPERATION

- In most cases, the cooperative society lacks internal

coercion and harmony among members due to rivalry,
quarrels, disagreements, and possibly personality clash.
These internal issues if not well managed or settled
managed on time could lead to the failure of the
society.
 Unplanned and Highly
Unprofitable Investment

- At times management members may commit the capital of the

society into nosiness ventures or investment on which the
society and its managers lack capacity to handle. In some other
instance, the investment is not properly thought of or it’s a bad
investment from the beginning.

Lack of coordination
with research institutes

- In Nigeria, it has been alleged in many quarters that

most of the researches conducted are not very useful
to members. They may be either not adaptable or too
complicated for the members to understand. Even at
times the expected result are quite different from the
actual result obtained in the field.
