| dc.description.abstract | Nigeria has developed wonderful policies over the years, but lhe difficulty is that only a small part of these various policies have been implemented. There has been no meaningful progress to show for it. This indicates (hat the creation of policies should not be the primary concern in Nigeria, but rather their success ful execution, because only policies that are well executed may result in nation-state development. In contrast to the past, this study investigates the factors that are more likely to stymie efficient policy implementation in Nigeria, as well as the panacea to the issues. The study revealed that policy summersaults in Nigeria are caused by, among other things, corruption, inadequate policy financing, a lack of consistency in government policies, a lack of political will, insufficient human and material resources, and a lack of clarity of purpose. The implications or repercussions of the public policy summersault on citizens in particular and Nigeria in general were noted, including decreased patriotism, underdevelopment, and nonhuman capital development. Thus, the study recommends that corrupt public servants be severely punished for crimes against the state; budgetary allocation be increased; legislation be enacted to ensure that policies are continued to be implemented by successive governments; attention be paid to Nigeria to ensure loyally to the political party in power; adequate human and material resources be provided through training and retraining of human capital; and, finally, patriotism be instilled. | en_US |
