THE IMPACT OF PRIVATIZATION ON THE ECONOMY DEVELOPMENT 2
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
In the era of post colonialism, Nigeria has at one time or
another, embarked upon certain policies that have political economic
implications. For instance, from 1960 to date, Nigeria has introduced
indigenization and nationalization policy, operation feed the Nation (OFN),
Austerity measure, structural adjustment programme (SAP), Deregulation of oil
sector, Resource control Privatization and commercialization of public enterprises
to mention but a few. The critical question here remains. How many of these
policies have been able to restructure the political economy of Nigeria to the
tune of alleviating the yearnings and aspirations of the working class.
The world no doubt is moving towards capitalization and any
nation that is not moving towards this direction is seen as either not
developing or even retrogressing. A capitalist economy is a free market economy
which allows most economic decisions to be guided by the twin forces of demand
and supply. Since capitalization discourages monopoly but encourages
competitive market, it therefore enhances efficiency and high productivity
which is very vital in any developing country’s economy. In Nigeria, most
government owned industries and establishments remain citadels of corruption,
studies in efficiency and consequently a heavy drain on the economy. As a means
of curbing this menace, the Brettonwoods institutions (IMF & WORLD BANK)
have advocated the twin policies of privatization and commercialization.
1.2 STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
Privatization and commercialization of public enterprises is
a vital tool for the upliftment of a country’s economy, more especially the
developing countries like Nigeria. Regrettably, the problems facing this
privatization and commercialization program is implementation of privatization
policy and the administrator of privatization and corruption.
However, it is based on these problems that the basic
propositions of this privatization and commercialization program are being
hindered. In trying to look into these discrepancies and proffer a way forward
towards a positive state of privatization and commercialization of public
enterprises in Nigeria, this research work emanated.
1.3 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
1. To
determine the impact of privatization on Nigerian Economy
2. To
determine the post privatization effect on Nigerian economy.
3. To make a
comparative analysis of what innovations the policy has brought into the
economy.
4. To assess
the factors that led to the privatization and commercialization of these public
co-operations and its origin. Thirdly, this work will also evaluate the various
privatization and commercialization programs embarked by the Nigerian
government from 1988 to 2010.
1.4 RESEARCH QUESTIONS
This work will tend to ask some relevant questions like:-
1. What are the reasons why these public enterprises have to
be sold despite the rationales for its establishment?
3. Can these corporations function well under the care of the
state rather than being privatized whether wholly or partly?
4. How far has this privatized enterprises gone in boosting
efficiency and high productivity to benefiting Nigerians as a whole whether
poor or rich, higher place or less privileged?
5. Who are the main beneficiaries of the privatization
program?
1.5 SCOPE OF THE STUDY
The scope of this research work focused strictly on the
impact of privatization on Nigeria economy. Therefore, the area in which data
were collected is within Nigeria.
1.6 LIMITATIONS O F THE STUDY
On the course of this research, the following problems were
encountered, like short time frame. Financing problem, scarcity of information
or data, etc. this is due to mainly, the wide scope of this study which
emphasizes on a complex institution like Nigeria. Now, the implication is that the short time
frame mapped out for this research work posed a problem of assessing these
programs as whole, but that doesn’t threat the authentication and quality of
this work.
Again, enough finance for the accomplishment of this work
became a problem in the sense that gathering information was costly, the researcher
needed enough money to gather them.
1.7 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
This research work will help the government and readers to
understand those benefits that privatization embodies which we have neglected
and politicized with in the past. In understanding this on the side of the
government, it will allow them to rethink and work towards real implementation
of it thereby creating a room for the rapid growth and development of Nigerian
economy. On the other hand, it will go a long way to create an avenue for more
academic research.
