Abstract
This study assessed the impact administrative efficiency on staff salary, promotion, and transportation in state owned tertiary institutions in Sokoto State. The study was guided by four objectives, four research questions and three null hypotheses. The study adopted a correlational design. The population of the study consisted of 4287 subjects. 357 participants were drawn using Research Advisors (2006) as sample of the study. Purposive sampling technique was employed in selecting the respective institutions, and proportionate sampling technique was used in selecting the participants from the selected institutions. Two sets of self-designed instruments were used for data collection and these are, Staff Welfare Rating Scale (SWRS) and Administrative Efficiency Rating Scale (AERS.). The reliability of the instruments was obtained using test-re-test method and reliability indexes of 0.88`and 0.78, were obtained. The study found among others that the extent of staff salary in state-owned tertiary institutions in Sokoto state was low. The research concludes that there was low extent of adequacy of staff salary in state-owned tertiary institutions in Sokoto State. It is thus recommended that, the management of State-Owned Tertiary Institutions should ensure regular review of staff salary scale by the state governments in order to ensure adequate staff salary in state-owned tertiary institutions.
