dc.description.abstractThe main objective of the study is to evaluate the contribution of National Council for Arts and Culture (NCAC) to National Development. Since its inception in 1975, the extent to which the council has achieved its stated objectives has not been determined. A comparison of reports in the arts and cultural sector reveals an increasing need for information by way of statistics, inventories, evaluation among others to assess and monitor the achievement of the planned objectives of the sector. A descriptive survey method was adopted for this research. The population consisted of all NCAC staff at the headquarters in Abuja and ten zonal offices in the country. Cluster sampling technique was used in the selection of the population. The selection of the respondents was based on the status of the respondents; they include directors, zonal head, heads of department and units. A total of 122 respondents were sampled for the study. Two research instruments (questionnaire and interview) were adopted for the study. A five-point version of the likert scale was used for the responses. These are “strongly agree” (SA) “agree” (A), “neutral” (N) “disagree” (DA) and “strongly disagree” (SD).In analyzing the data, a mean score was selected as the dividing point between acceptable and unacceptable responses. The major findings showed that: the right qualities of staff were employed by the council to run the affairs of the organization and the objectives of the cultural policy as stated by the NCAC are adequate and relevant to the development of the country. The council has been harnessing the various resources from different parts of the country as a way of contributing to the development of the national culture, unity, selfreliance and self-sufficiency. The council contributed to the promotion of research canters, craft canters, inventories of technology, cultural directories, festivals, traditional sports and literature. The council encourages viable industries in Nigerian traditional medicine, fashion, food, architecture and entertainment. As the national secretariat of other cultural agencies in the country, the Council has been able to harness the various resources from different parts of the country in contributing to the development of national culture, unity and self – reliance through the establishment and promotion of national cultural research centers, inventories of technology, national festivals and viable industries in Nigeriaen_US
