Abstract

In Nigeria today, Ministers not only make policy decisions without the advice of their senior civil servants, but they also seek to supervise even the detailed implementation of these policies. ... It is time that the politicians gave much more consideration to the objective advice of the civil servants and allow them a freer hand in defining and administering government programmes. R. L. Harris (1965) 1
