Abstract:
This study investigated lecturers’ perception of corrupt practices in Universities in Cross River State, Nigeria. Four hypotheses were formulated and survey design adopted for the study. The population of the study was 2,286 lecturers from the two Universities while 230 of them were sampled using stratified random sampling technique. A researcher’s constructed instrument called Lecturers’ Perception of Corrupt Practices Questionnaire (LPCPQ) was used for data collection. Data obtained were subjected to statistical techniques with population t-test of single mean and independent t-test statistical techniques. Findings revealed that lecturers’ perception of corrupt practices in universities is significantly low. The recommendation among others is that University Management should put measures in place to promote awareness on the eradication of corrupt practices.
