Neglecting Public Service Reforms Leads to Repeated Failures, Study Finds
The article compares two public service reforms in Nigeria, one from 1972 and one from 2003, to see how they are similar. The researchers looked at documents about the reforms to learn more. They found that the 1972 reform was like the start of a new way of running the public service, where it's more like a private business. The study showed that because the 1972 reform wasn't fully put into action, there were more reforms in 1988 and 2003. The article suggests that the government should always follow through on the recommendations from these reforms to avoid having to do more in the future.
