Two research questions were answered and two research hypotheses were tested using percentage and chi-square statistics respectively. The findings of the study revealed lack of standard classroom, inadequate supply of electricity and inadequate funding The study also showed that there is no significant difference between facilitators and students' perception of the problems associated with resource allocation and organization of the programme It was therefore, recommended among others that course materials, computer-based media and other facilities should be made available at all study centers for students use.
