Abstract

The Non-academic staff are professionals providing administrative services and support in the Nigerian higher institutions. The statutory roles of Non-academic staff in the administration and management of public universities cannot be overemphasized. It is rather, unfortunate that, the non-academic staff in the Nigerian public universities are facing legions of problems. This paper identified poor staff development, inadequate infrastructural facilities, inadequate working tools, lack of cooperation among non-academic staff unions, poor motivation, less consideration and insecurity among many others as the problems facing the non-academic staff of Nigeria public universities. The paper made useful and worthy recommendations towards better public universities administration and management.
