Abstract: This study looked into how principals’ capacity-building needs affected the efficacy of administration in public secondary schools in the state of Benue. In particular, the study sought to ascertain the influence of principals’ financial management abilities and students’ personnel management skills on the efficacy of administration in public secondary schools in Benue State, Nigeria. For this study, a survey research design was chosen. The full population of 312 principals of public secondary schools in Benue State served as the study’s sample. Descriptive and inferential statistics, including simple percentage, mean, and standard deviation, were used to analyze the gathered data. In addition, the study’s research questions were tested using the Chi-square. The study’s conclusions showed that principals’ abilities to manage students, personnel, and finances had a major impact on the efficiency of administration in public secondary schools in Benue State. Thus, the study came to the conclusion that principals’ needs for capacity building have a major impact on how well public secondary schools in Benue State are managed. The government should increase the budgetary allocation for principals’ regular training so they can stay up to date on personnel management in schools, among other recommendations made in light of the study’s findings and conclusion.
