1.6 SCOPE OF STUDY
The
study was conducted in Lagos, as the city has the highest number of
high schools with a strong interest in extracurricular activities,
including sports, in Nigeria. It is also the most populous city in the
world, with almost all public, private and international socio-political

people who live and work in Lagos, twelve secondary schools in Ikeja
were used in this study.

researchers faced a series of challenges, including time. The time
allotted to the study was not enough to carry out an intensive and

sufficient to cover all expenses, such as transportation, food
allowances, recruitment of research assistants and stationery.

questionnaires, were unable to complete the questionnaire on time and
others deceived them to the point of requiring the researcher to
redistribute other copies. In addition, many respondents had the idea of
obtaining money from the researcher, especially when they knew he was
researching as a prerequisite for graduation. The letter of introduction
from the university that the researcher had not convinced.
