1.3 AIMS AND OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY
There
is a large consensus among Nigerians that the privatization and
commercialization programme is desirable on rational .economic grounds.
This consensus benefits could accrue from the programme. The exercise
is, for instance expected to minimize waste in P.Es and introduce the
discipline of market forces into public sector endeavors.
Born out of this, this study is undertaken under these broad objectives
(a) To identify with government role in the faithful implementation of the
Privatization and commercialization programmer.
(b) To appraise the overall performance of P.E.'s in order to ascertain its relevance or
otherwise.
(c) To examine the rational for a private sector-led economy.
(d) To change the orientation of all public enterprises engaged in economic activities
towards a new horizon of performance, improvement, viability and overall
efficiency
(e) To emphasize the need for the Federal Government to create an enabling
environment that will promote and enhance transparency, honesty and equity in
the implementation process.
(f) to clearly understand the rational for privatisation and commercialization as
instruments of economic reform.
(g) To uncover germane factors militating against this programme and also· proffer
solutions to the government to fine-tune the exercise and purge it of undesirable
side effect.
(h)
Lastly, the recommendations of this study will provide appropriate
remedial initiatives aimed at identifying and articulating the emerging
socio-economic and political problem3 of the exercise.
