Abstract<br />

The study examined the effect of motivation on labour turnover among university<br />

teachers in southwestern Nigeria. Subject for the study were four hundred and forty-two<br />

teachers drawn from two federal and two state universities in the southwestern zone of<br />

Nigeria. The stratified random sampling technique was used in the selection of subjects.<br />

Questionnaire method was used to collect relevant data for the study. The data collected<br />

from the survey ere analysed using both descriptive and inferential statistics such as<br />

percentages, t- test and two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). Each of the two<br />

hypotheses postulated was tested at 0.05 level of significance and the results showed that<br />

motivation actually affect the labour turnover of the university teachers in southwestern<br />

Nigeria the findings also showed that the motivation strategies available for university<br />

teachers in Nigeria are inadequate for their continued stay in the university system and that<br />

techniques were relatively more motivated by non-economics factors. Economic<br />

incentives were found to be grossly inadequate for the retention of lecturers in the<br />

university system. It was therefore recommended that both economic and non-economic<br />

forms of motivation be employed to keep the university teachers on their job. Also, for<br />

continued stay, and reasonable level of effectiveness, the environment of the universities<br />

should be made more conductive for teaching.<br />
