(a) Five components of the public service in Nigeria
The Civil Service (ministries, departments and agencies).
The Armed Forces (Army, Navy and Air Force).
The Police and other security/paramilitary services.
Public corporations and parastatals (for example NNPC, NPA).
The Judicial Service and the teaching/education service.
(b) Five reasons for the ineffectiveness and inefficiency of public servants in Nigeria
Corruption: Bribery, embezzlement and fraud divert resources and lower productivity.
Poor remuneration: Low and irregular payment of salaries discourages hard work and dedication.
Inadequate training: Lack of regular training and retraining leaves workers with outdated skills.
Poor working conditions and inadequate facilities: Lack of modern equipment and a good working environment hampers performance.
Political interference and favouritism: Undue interference, nepotism and appointment based on connection rather than merit reduce efficiency.
