The chapter intends to deepen the understanding of the study and close the perceived gaps.
CONCEPTUAL REVIEW
TERTIARY INSTITUTION
The tertiary institutions is a higher education, a post-secondary section of the national education system of Nigeria was programmed to educate universities, colleges of education, polytechnics, colleges of Technology Technical Colleges and Universities of Technology (section five, paragraph thirty-one of the National Policy on Education (FGN, 2004). Other functions of the tertiary institutions are higher education such as teaching and research, also to be able to develop students’ man power and to develop nation. Further, section 5 paragraph 32 of National Policy on Education states that tertiary institution are to perform the following such as development, inculcation of proper value – orientation for the survival of the individuals and society. Also, tertiary education is to help in the area of acquisition of an objective view of the local and external environments of individuals and these could be achieved through teaching research, dissemination of existing and new information and service to the community such as seminars, workshops and educative forum etc.
Tertiary institutions generally are to assist in the development of the nation’s development goals. To ensure a success of higher education in Nigeria, though all these functions are still in the tertiary institution. Defining tertiary education may be a little difficult. This is so because it refers to the gamut of all post-secondary educational institutions. It is used synonymously with higher education. These include the University, Polytechnic, College of Education, Vocational Training Centre. Their goals, according to the National Policy on Education (FRN, 2014), include:
- To contribute to national development through high-level relevant manpower training.
- To provide physical and intellectual skills which enable individuals to be self-reliant and useful members of the society.
The question of whether tertiary education in Nigeria plays its role (and significantly too) particularly with respect to the essence of education and the goals set for it in the national policy on education should agitate our minds at this point. In more organized societies, tertiary education is acknowledged and respected as the engine house for research and innovations which are fundamental to social and economic transformation. Responsible and informed governments look upto tertiary institutions for empirically based ideas to support policies rather than base such policies on common sense or political consideration as mostly observed in Nigeria. Governments in organized societies fund tertiary institutions to carry out researches on national priorities such as security, warfare, health, agriculture etc. When will governments in Nigeria respect the place of tertiary institutions in this regard? The recurrent face-off between Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) and the Federal Government of Nigeria (FGN) on the revitalization of the universities looks like the government is being bored in its unwillingness to comprehend the need for a functioning university system nor to fund it.
While playing its primary role of feeding the human mind and liquidating ignorance, tertiary education produces competent managers of available resources. These are persons equipped with appropriate values, thinking, creative and innovative ability and sound knowledge of how the economy can be made to function and grow. One of the major roles of tertiary education as a driver and propeller of the economy is to produce a production-oriented rather than consumption-oriented citizenry.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
INTRODUCTION
In this chapter, we described the research procedure for this study. A research methodology is a research process adopted or employed to systematically and scientifically present the results of a study to the research audience viz. a vis, the study beneficiaries.
RESEARCH DESIGN
Research designs are perceived to be an overall strategy adopted by the researcher whereby different components of the study are integrated in a logical manner to effectively address a research problem. In this study, the researcher employed the survey research design. This is due to the nature of the study whereby the opinion and views of people are sampled. According to Singleton & Straits, (2009), Survey research can use quantitative research strategies (e.g., using questionnaires with numerically rated items), qualitative research strategies (e.g., using open-ended questions), or both strategies (i.e., mixed methods). As it is often used to describe and explore human behaviour, surveys are therefore frequently used in social and psychological research.
