Employees of different backgrounds are employed to help achieve corporate objectives. The complexities that exist among these employees are expected to be effectively managed through proper organizational political practices.

Using a survey research design, 118 employees of the commission were examined and the findings revealed that scarcity of resources has positive and significant relationship with employees’ diversity in Akwa Ibom State Local Government Service Commission (r = 0.614, p<0.000); and employee’s Personality has positive and significant relationship with employees’ diversity in Akwa Ibom State Local Government Service Commission (r = 0.662, p<0.000). It was concluded that organizational politics has positive and significant relationship with employees’ diversity in Akwa Ibom State Local Government Service Commission. It was recommended that top level managers in the commission should encourage fair and equitable practices in the organization as this would help to lessen high political practices among the employees.
