Using the organizational capacity assessment tool model and critical discourse analysis, the responses of five key management personnel of Yobe State Primary Health Care Management Board were analyzed. Organizational capacity strengthening in respect of organizational governance, coordination and partnerships, organizational planning, human resource development and management board dimensions appeared to have salient influences on the utilization of communication for development techniques in primary health care services administration with budgeting and financing dimensions having weaker influences. Perceived sustainability crisis and government political commitment appeared to play a moderating role.</p>}, number={1}, journal={PEOPLE: International Journal of Social Sciences}, author={Ibrahim, Adamkolo Mohammed and Gambo, Danjuma}, year={2019}, month={Apr.}, pages={554–575} }
