Data collected was analysed with the aid of descriptive statistics like tables, percentages, and frequency while inferential statistics such as Pearson Product Moment Correlation (PPMC) and regression analysis were used to analyse the formulated hypotheses. Results (MLD, P = 0.856; AMBL, P = 0.867; ESD, P = 0.835; AASP = 0.844; MIC, P = 0.885; and CS, P = 0.661) revealed that there is a significant relationship between MFBs' credit administration and entrepreneurial development. The study concluded that MFB credit administration has a significant positive influence on entrepreneurship development.
