Abstract

This study surveys the importance of the Nigeria civil service in promoting national development in Nigeria. The study adopts survey design as it the most appropriate to evaluate social variables. Data were gathered by sampling participants who were randomly drawn from the population of interest using the Yamani statistics. A 5 point Likert scale was used to craft the survey instrument. Reliability of the instrument was ensured by the use of the Guttmann Index Scaling with reported reliability of 90% factor loading; internal consistency coefficient yielded .83 and a factor analysis. Regression statistics was deployed to test the hypothesis, yielding a statistically significant relationship between the Nigerian civil service and national development. The study elucidates the relevant information needed to understand the significant roles the civil service is plays in engendering national development in Nigeria and factors militating against the civil service through both primary and secondary means and data collected were analyzed and a conclusion on the established research questions and hypotheses.
