The study looked at the institutional framework, the infrastructure and facilities, the others factors hindering revenue collection and the efforts taken in place. The study used a cross-sectional research design with a sample of thirty-four (34) respondents who were selected by using convenience sampling technique. Data were collected by using questionnaires, interviews, and documentary review method. Quantitative data were analyzed by using SPSS while qualitative required the use of Microsoft Word. Findings revealed that within the institutional framework the factor which hindered revenue collection was failure to put in place some of the procedures for revenue collection. The greatest problems were: political interference and or interference by policy markers, shortage of qualified personnel for revenue collection, lack of by-laws for some revenue sources, to mention just a few. These problems resulted to lack of effectiveness of municipal revenue collection to a great extent as affirmed by 83.3% of respondents. However fewer efforts were done to address these problems. The study recommended that the regulations and procedures be put in place, politicians communicate with the municipal council prior to taking any decision, facilities and qualified personnel be increased, corruption be fought, and that further studies be conducted while focusing on the daily challenges facing revenue collectors working under supervision of the accounting department.
