dc.description.abstractThe Nigerian Civil Service is an institution that has not only developed since the colonial period but has been the institution that is more matured and equipped to perform creditable role in the development of Nigeria. The paper was an attempt to ex-ray the major contributions of the civil service in the development effort of Nigeria for that period. The study relied primarily on the available secondary data in order to unearth by way of pointing out its major contributions in Nigeria. Such secondary sources, are books, journals, publications, seminar papers, research works published and unpublished, magazines, reports etc. and the personal experience of the researcher. The study found that although there are pejorative roles of the civil service in general, the Nigerian civil service played an important role in the development of Nigeria. However inspite of the identified weaknesses it is recommended amongst others that the civil service should be reconsidered as an agent of development by the political elite and give it back its freedom to serve as a partner in the Nigeria's march to development and bring back the veritable values it is well known for. Such as values of neutrality, anonymity, impartiality, continuity and representations of the people and government interest.
