Performance of state owned enterprises in Nigeria reflects the necessity of studying this issue. It seems that in most countries, the performance in public management is more difficult to evaluate in comparison with the private sector. This is because in the case of private companies performance is reflected in their sales volume, in their incomes level, in their production ability, and other indicators. But public entities do not produce, sell, or commercialize products, making it difficult to evaluate their performance.
Therefore, the real question in such cases is how to measure performance in the public sector, and what does performance mean in the case of public management. Certain state owned enterprises can produce and sell certain goods. In such cases, their performance is measured by private sector standards. However, the implication of the state in the management of such enterprises makes it difficult to identify and to analyze their level of performance.
Literature Review
Nigeria Economy
The Nigerian Economy is one of the most developed African economies. The country benefits from a middle income level, determined by developed business sectors like communication, transportation, and financial services. In addition to this, Nigeria has the second largest stock exchange in Africa (Economy Watch, 2010). The country's economy relies on the petroleum industry. Most of the Nigerian petroleum is exported.
However, the country has reduced infrastructure levels. This means that investors are not interested in making efforts in order to address Nigeria's economy. In addition to this, it seems that the Nigerian authorities were not able to develop other industrial sectors.
