The objective was to find out the influence of teachers external regulation motivation on learners academic achievement.

Quantitative data collected was analyzed using descriptive statistics, while qualitative data was analyzed using thematic analysis. On the concern of influence of External Regulation Motivation for Teachers on Learners’ academic achievement, study found that teachers lacked external regulation motivation because they are not motivated through monetary incentives, promotions, sponsored in-service trainings and educational tours. The study concludes that most teachers were not being motivated to put extra effort for leadership roles, nor given monetary rewards and free meals by their employers or school administrations at school, through promotions and sponsored in-service trainings. This implies that increase in extrinsic motivation of teachers helps to influence teachers’ motivation which may promote learners academic achievement. The study recommends that the Ministry of education should organize workshops, seminars, educational tours which are sponsored and monetary rewards offered to teachers. Teachers Service Commission should work on incentive salary and remuneration packages to increase teachers’ extrinsic motivation.
