INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Often, we ask ourselves this question: “What motivates people to do what they do? “By this we normally mean” “Why do people behave as they do? However, the answer we got points at motivation which is a term popularly used to refer to the cause or way of behaviour. Because psychologist are aware that many aspects of behaviour are determined by motivation or learning. They confided the concept of motivation to those factors which energize and give direction to behaviour. Usually a motivated person will engage in an activity more vigorously and more efficiently than an unmotivated person. Apart form activating a person or other organisms, motivation tends to direct or focus behaviour. For instance, a thirsty person is always ready to look for water to drink.
Motivation is the act of making workers strive hard in order to achieve the overall objective of the organization and the employer does so in anticipation of attaining specific goals. The word motivation is derived from the word motive, which is impulse or desire that moves one towards a goal. A motive is an inner states that direct a person to seek to satisfy a felt need.
In this country (Nigeria) the positive instrument in the motivation of labour is money. Some management think that by increasing the worker’s pay or wage packet, they have gone a long way to achieve industrial peace, harmony, low labour turnover, increased productivity, employees loyalty, commitment and dedication to duty.
The Nigerian workers does not only want increase in pay, he also wants to be recognized, enjoy the work he is doing, be proud of the work and also to be identified with it
In the time past, Nigerian workers might be satisfied with mere basic necessities of life and cared less about the future. But in recent times, they have been exposed to the good things of life, and are willing to work hard to get them.
Motivation could be channeled towards the wrong direction by management’s concentrations on good payment and allowances only. This means that the motivation will be ineffective. A good motivational factor could be in the form of provisions of transport facilities for workers who experience difficulty in getting to the work place, housing allowance, medical services etc these will help the workers and at the same time induce productivity.

This brings us to the central point of this research motivation. What strategies are being adopted by the different companies in motivating their staff.
