Abstract

The primary goal of creating local governments under democracy is to implement democratic ideals at the grassroots level. Establishing a freely chosen local government council is intended to improve grassroots service delivery in an efficient and effective manner. In order to do this, the study looks at how local governments are formed in Nigeria under the democratic system. The existing body of relevant literature was reviewed. The old-fashioned design was applied. The study used secondary data that was subjected to a qualitative content analysis using the content analysis technique. The analysis revealed that the establishment of local governments, whether democratic or military, has not fulfilled its constitutional mandate. The councils of the local governments that are democratically elected are not particularly noteworthy. Among other recommendations made by the study were to stop the state government from interfering with local governments' finances and to stop encouraging more local governments to step up during this critical period by reviewing the allocation upward, which would allow them to continue providing the services that the grassroots population needs.

Abstract

The study examined the connection between participatory decision-making and organizational productivity in Delta State public service. The study specifically examined the effects of employee involvement, commitment, and consultation on organizational productivity in the public service of Delta State. Data was gathered through the survey research design, which involved 643 employees being surveyed. Out of the 643 questionnaires distributed, only 478 were retrieved and analyzed. The investigation's primary theoretical framework was value chain theory. The theory explains how organization can improve quality of decision-making and create superior value to promote organizational productivity. Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 23 was used to analyze the data using percentages, frequency, Pearson's coefficient of correlation, and linear regression. According to the study's findings, organizational productivity in Delta State public service is positively and statistically impacted by participatory decision-making, which involves employee commitment, involvement, and consultation. The study came to the conclusion that employee involvement in decision-making significantly affects organizational productivity based on these findings. Therefore, the study suggests, among other things, that the Delta State public service management should determine and set a scope and level of employee participation in decision-making. The focus here should be on collective bargaining and proper employee recognition through job enrichment in order to affect organizational commitment. Workers should be empowered to take charge of their tasks and engage in decision-making. Their working relationships and workflow will both be greatly enhanced by this.

Abstract

Federalism is one of the best frameworks for managing a pluralistic society, and Nigeria used it to run her multiethnic state. Despite this, there appears to be division, conflict, and discord rather than cohesion, unity, and consensus. Other political strategies, including the quota system and Federal Character, were adopted as a result of the quest for national integration. The application of Federal Character, which was fully adopted in 1979, has been the subject of numerous political disputes and is currently a hot topic in political as well as administrative discourse. Thus, the purpose of this study is to investigate how the federal character principle is implemented in Nigeria's public sector. This study used the historical research design and adopted systems theory as its theoretical framework. The study's conclusion was that Nigerian federalism is far from ideal and that the Federal Character Principle, which aims to foster national loyalty, promotes unity among Nigerians, and gives all citizens a sense of belonging to the country regardless of differences in ancestry, culture, language, or religion, has not been able to achieve this goal. Among other recommendations, the study suggests that there be mechanisms in place for the effective implementation of the federal character and quota system in the Nigerian civil service, including those related to patriotism, honesty, institutionalism, and fairness. This will lessen the likelihood of conflicts between Nigeria's various ethnic groups, which are often the main reason why certain ethnic groups are excluded from civil service recruitment.
