PREFACE
ix
The National Mass Household Survey remains the largest survey organized by African
Peer Review Mechanism (APRM). APRM is an instrument voluntarily acceded to by
member states of the African Union as a self – monitoring mechanism for African states.
The primary purpose of the APRM is to foster the adoption of policies, standards and
practices that lead to political stability; high economic growth; sustainable development;
and accelerated sub – regional and continental economic integration through the sharing of
experiences and the re- enforcement of successful and best practices, including identifying
deficiencies and assessing the needs of capacity building.
The National Mass Household Surveys was designed to capture the perceptions of
Nigerians at all levels of the society, particularly at the grassroots.
Four thematic Areas of governance were covered by the survey. These were: Democracy
and Political governance, Economic governance and Management, Socio – Economic
Development, and Corporate Governance.
Each thematic area had its set broad objectives which were addressed in the
questionnaire. These were mostly the issues addressed by the millennium development
goals (MDGS) as domesticated by Nigeria.
The outcome of the results would help to provide National Plan of Action (NPOA) for good
governance and poverty reduction by government and could also be used by Research
Organizations.
This Report is being recommended to government, programmed managers in the private
sector, policy formulators and evaluators, the multi- nationals and other international
agencies. However, your further comments on the improvement of this report would be
highly welcome.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
African Peer Review Mechanism (APRM) is the flagship programme of New
Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD). APRM is an instrument voluntarily acceded
to by member States of the African Union as a self-monitoring mechanism for African
States. The mandate of APRM is to ensure that Policies and Practices of Participating
States conform to the agreed political, economic and corporate governance values, codes
x
and standards contained in the Declaration on Democracy, Political, Economic and
Corporate Governance. Nigeria acceded to APRM in 2003. In the process of being
reviewed, APRM-National Focal Point Secretariat (APRM-NFP) decided to conduct a Mass
Household Survey (MHS) in the country in order to provide scientific data on the
perceptions of Nigerian citizens on the governance in Nigeria, taking account of the four
thematic areas of APRM and the objectives of each of the thematic areas. National Bureau
of Statistics was given the responsibility to conduct the MHS. It was specifically charged
with the responsibility of capturing the perceptions of Nigerians on governance and socio-
economic development, rule of law, national ownership and popular participation in
governance, transparency, accountability, credibility, inclusiveness, technical competence,
independence of the electoral process and also independence from political manipulation.
Essentially, the survey covered the 36 States of the Federation and the Federal
Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja.
All the four Thematic Areas of APRM were covered. These were:
(a) Democracy and Political Governance
(b) Economic Governance and Management
(c) Socio-economic Development
(d) Corporate Governance
In the Sample Design, three Senatorial Districts/Local Governments Areas were
covered. There were 200 households covered in each LGA, and 22,200 households
covered throughout the federation.
The Survey was monitored by APRM team of Monitors, the National Orientation
Agency (NOA), and NBS Senior Technical Staff.
SUMMARY OF FUNDINGS
Socio- Demographic Characteristics
Gender
The gender issue was taken into consideration among the respondents as 51.5
percent were males and 48.5 percent were females.
Inclusiveness
xi
The youths formed the largest group of respondents as age group 12-24 years
constituted 35.5 percent; and 25-35 years formed 22.1 percent of the respondents with the
percentage decreasing with other age groups.
Religion
Nigeria being a secular state, NBS tried to categorize the respondents by religion.
They were; Muslims (49 percent); Christians (47.7 percent); traditional religion (1.6 percent)
and others unspecified (1.7 percent).
General Knowledge about APRM
Only 11.1 percent of the respondents contacted had knowledge about APRM with
88.9 percent claiming ignorance of it. Those who knew about APRM indicated that their
source was mainly through radio (78.4 percent), television (34.9 percent) and Newspapers
(33.9 percent).
Instruments and Standards
On the extent to which Nigeria has taken measures to sign, ratify, adopt and comply
with the international and regional instruments and standards listed in the APRM
questionnaire, only 21.5 percent considered the extent as “very high”; “moderate extent”
was 26.7 percent; “low extent” was 14.5 percent and “very low” was 16.5 percent while
those who “did not know” about it were 20.9 percent. Only 24 percent of the respondents
had knowledge of NEPAD and their perceptions on the challenges facing government in
implementing the NEPAD Initiative were identified as:
(i) Political insecurity/instability (70.1 percent)
(ii) Illiteracy among the people (68.9 percent)
(iii) Indiscipline (13.2 percent)
(iv) Others - unspecified (91.5 percent).
Thematic Areas
Democracy and Political Governance
There are nine broad objectives in this thematic area.
Prevention and reduction of intra and inter State conflicts
xii
The major factors contributing to the occurrence and/or increase of internal conflicts
in the country were identified as “ethnicity”, and “political exclusion/marginalization” (41.0
percent); “poverty and unemployment” (39.3 percent), particularly in the South South and
South East geo-political zones.
When the sources of conflicts between African countries were examined, the
respondents considered “cross-border crime” as ‘very high’ (31.0 percent). Others include:
“political difference” (like the ownership of Bakassi between Nigeria and Cameroon), “illicit
arm trade”, “resource control” and racial difference”.
Constitutional Democracy, Political Competition, the Rule of Law, Citizen Rights and
Supremacy of the Constitution
About one third (37.0 percent) of all the respondents believed that the laws made by
the legislatures have positive impact on their lives especially at the State level, such as
Niger (71.3 percent), Benue (57.3 percent), Borno (52.9 percent) and Ekiti State (52.7
percent).
It was the considered opinion of the respondents that their political representatives
were not representing their interest adequately as they were not satisfied with their
performance. On the rule of law, 67 percent of the respondents were of the opinion that the
rule of law was not adhered to in Nigeria and that there was inequality in its application.
Promotion and Protection of Political, Civil, Economic, Social and Cultural Rights
Elections conducted in Nigeria in 1999 and 2003 had been described as not being
free and fair and particularly worse in 2003 (68.3 percent). About 30.0 percent of the
respondents reported that culture, economic, social, civil and political rights are partially
protected in the country. The Labour Union was rated highest among the organizations
protecting and promoting individual rights in the country.
Fighting Corruption in the Political Sphere

Since the inception of the present Administration, fighting corruption has been one of
its major concerns. About 62 percent of the respondents agreed that the fight against
corruption has been on the increase. The respondents (53.1 percent) rated the level of
corruption as ‘very high’ in the country, with 30.3 percent considering it as ‘high’ and 10.9
xiii
percent as ‘moderate’. The bottom - line is that 83.4 percent of the respondents believe
that there is corruption in Nigeria. They have rated “inadequate welfare” (55 percent) and
“poverty” (51 percent) as very serious factors contributing to corruption in the country.
Other factors include; “lack of job security” (42 percent); “societal/cultural values” (40
percent) and “unequal distribution of rights” (36 percent).
Among the Institutions established to combat corruption in Nigeria, Economic and
Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) was rated highest (64.2 percent), followed by
Independent Corrupt Practices and related offences Commission (ICPC), and the Due
Process.
Promotion and Protection of the Rights of Women
Giving women equal access to education was seen as a strong measure to promote
and protect gender equality. “Economic empowerment” of women and their “appointment
into positions of decision-making” were also identified as crucial. About 35 percent of the
respondents have said that involvement of women in the executive in all tiers of
government and other sectors would help to prevent and protect the rights of women.
Promotion and Protection of the Rights of Vulnerable Groups

Poverty was identified as one of the major factors militating against the promotion of
“child rights” in Nigeria. Most of the child abuse and human trafficking have been traced to
poverty in the households.
On the attitude of government at all levels towards the Protection of Rights of the
vulnerable groups, the present Administration have been scored below 40 percent.
However, it is believed that more can still be done by government.
ECONOMIC GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Economic Governance and Management focuses on five broad objectives.

Promotion of Macro-economic Policies for Sustainable Development
xiv
The objective relates to issues such as inflation rate, exchange rate, growth in real
GDP, the fiscal deficit to GDP, and resource mobilization et cetera.
The outcome of the survey showed little or no improvement in the living standards of
most Nigerian citizens in the past two years and that the value of the currency (naira) had
reduced. The cost of living over the past 2 years had increased with most citizens
struggling to survive. Though the inflation rate has reduced officially, the impact was not
reported in the survey. Income of some Nigerians has been reported to have increased but
the purchasing power remains low. Obtaining credit or loan in the past years had not been
easy for most citizens as reported by the respondents because of “inability to provide
collaterals” and also because of the “high interest rates” apart from “long loan processing
period” by the financial institutions.
In the last five years, the respondents reported increase in the prices of goods
despite government’s lower rate of inflation. The exchange rate was said to have been
fairly stable though with some slight increase.
Promotion of Sound Public Finance Management

The respondents were of the opinion that the “Reforms” carried out in Nigeria Custom
Service brought about increase in domestic resource mobilization.
The re-capitalization and re-consolidation of 89 Banks into 25 strong Banks in
Nigeria have received the support of Nigerians (50 percent). The respondents believed
that businesses could be better if the people have access to micro-credit facilities. The
respondents have thrown their weight behind the establishment of Revenue Allocation and
Mobilization Committee. The publishing of Statutory Revenue Allocation by the Federal
Ministry of Finance was applauded by most respondents as it has encouraged
transparency and accountability in Public Finance.
The respondents decried government’s not prioritizing its development projects and
the way the implementation of the projects were carried out. They complained of not
involving external bodies/independent organizations like the Civil Society Organizations in
supervising/monitoring and evaluating the development projects. They also complained of
not been informed about the financial management of development projects carried out at
the State and Local Government Level.
xv
Fighting Corruption and Money Laundering
The survey revealed that corruption was very high in Nigeria and that the process of
accountability was inefficient. Some of the Public Officers were reported to be demanding
bribes before performing their normal duty. The respondents rated EFCC highest in the
fight against corruption in the counting over ICPC, Code of Conduct Bureau, and the “Due
Process”.
They also commended the efforts of NAFDAC for fighting against “killer drugs” and
NDLEA for its role in preventing the smuggling of drugs and narcotics.
Accelerating Regional Integration
About three-quarters of the respondents were aware of regional bodies in Africa
such as Economic Commission for West African States, Economic Commission for Africa,
African Development Bank (ADB) and African Union (AU). Some respondents believed in
the use of the same currency by ECOWAS members-States, who to them, it will promote
sub-region economic trade or exchanges in the region.
SOCIO-ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
This thematic area focuses on six broad objectives.
Promotion of Self-Reliance and Sustainable Development

The National Poverty Alleviation Programme is seen as a pet of the present
Administration to fight poverty in the country. The respondents rated the effectiveness and
efficiency of the programme low, as it has not met with the needs of the citizens.
The domesticated Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and Economic Reforms
introduced by the present Administration were seen as good but faulted the application and
implementation strategy. NEEDS programme was said to have made some impact in the
financial sector all over the country but SEEDS and LEEDS are yet to be fully integrated in
the States and LGAs respectively. The level of awareness of LEEDS is very low at the
LGA level.
The provision of basic facilities and/or services to the community was seen to be
mainly the responsibility of government. The huge allocation of funds to provide
facilities/services like education, health care, potable water, energy (electricity supply),
financial services were said to be unjustifiable at the end of every financial year. Electricity
xvi
supply which could have cushioned businesses and generated employment particularly in
the “informal sector” was rated ‘very low’ by the respondents.
The UBE was hailed by most respondents but that the quality of teachers, and the
welfare of the pupils should be improved upon.
Accelerating Socio-economic Development

The respondents saw subsistence agriculture as the mainstay of Nigerian economy
but would want government to encourage agriculture with the provision of inputs.
Commercial agriculture was seen to be practiced by only a few individuals and groups. If
there were constant supply of electricity, provision of potable water and other infrastructure
like housing, and provision of good roads, the country would have developed better, and
more citizens, as reported, would have gone into small-scale businesses.
The level of poverty was rated very high in the country. The factors identified to be
responsible for poverty were: Unemployment, Low level of education, Lack of farm input,
absence of social infrastructure, non access to loan, and inflation in the country.
Strengthening Policies and Delivery Mechanism

Government policies on education have been described as quite dynamic. Policies
on education were applauded but they have to be given time for effective impact in the
country.
Water supply is yet to be adequate for Nigerians as most citizens in the South South
geo-political zone rely on rivers/stream for their drinking water. Most of the citizens in the
same geo-political zone defecate on “surface water” (87 percent), while those in the
northern zones still make do with “traditional pit toilet”, and “ventilated improved pit latrine”.
Most of the citizens use “firewood straw” for their cooking with others using “kerosene”
frequently.
Progress towards Gender Equality

Government is gender sensitive and has allocated more women to positions of
decision-making than in previous administrations. It has also encouraged more women to
xvii
go into politics. The respondents gave government “kudos” in this direction, but solicited
for more encouragement.
Promote and encourage broad-based participation in development by all
stakeholders at all levels
The respondents were of the opinion that the planning and development of
programmes, policies and projects, and the budgeting process have not been broad-based.
They believed that they have been inhibited by factors like: “bribery and corruption”;
“political influence”; “lack of transparency” and “god- fatherism”.
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Corporate Governance focuses on five broad objectives.
Promotion of enabling environment and effective regulatory framework for economic

activities
Nigeria is an agrarian society. Agriculture still remains the mainstay of the economy.
Only about 25 percent of the respondents owned a business. However, business
ownership varies from one geo-political zone or urban centre to another. More people are
into small-scale business in the southern part of Nigeria than in northern part of the country.
About half of the respondents confirmed that their business was better today than it was
since 2003.
Corporate social responsibility and environmental sustainability
Some Corporations in Nigeria were said to be observing Labour Laws. Most of the
Labour Laws existing today were recommended to be revised by the Legislature. Nigerian
workers were said not to be adequately protected in their place of work. For environmental
protection laws, the respondents were of the opinion that the mechanisms put in place were
effective.
Promoting the Adoption of Good Business Ethics
xviii
Less than 20.0 percent of the respondents were engaged in “formal” employment.
Most of them are engaged in employment in the “informal” sector like it is commonly found
among the Nigerian citizens in the South East zone.
Corruption in Nigeria
Like in other thematic areas, corruption was rated “very high” in the country. On the
effectiveness of agencies tackling corruption in Nigeria, EFCC was rated highest as been
the most effective agency. This was followed by ICPC, Code of Conduct Bureau, and “Due
Process”. A lot of ‘lootings’ from the Treasury were said to have been uncovered, and some
funds saved through the stringent application of the “Due Process.”
Rights of Shareholders and Stakeholders

Only about 2.0 percent of the respondents owned shares in companies compared
with 98.0 percent who did not own any. About 60.0 percent of those who own shares
confirmed that they received regular information from their companies. About 83.0 percent
of those who own shares also reported that they were treated with respect and fairness.
Accountability of Corporations, Directors and Officers

About 66 percent of those who own shares in companies reported that shareholders
received audited accounts from their companies every year. About 65.0 percent of the
shareholders among the respondents also confirmed that the audited accounts represented
the correct position of what transpired in the companies.

INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT
The African peer Review Mechanism (APRM) is a programme of the New

Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD) for fostering good governance in
African countries. It is basically a mutually adopted instrument for self-
monitoring by African countries, using agreed African and international
standards. The peer review process is designed to enthrone and deepen good
governance in the continent. As part of the APRM process, each country is
expected to carry out a self-assessment of its performance on
(a) Democracy and Political Governance;
(b) Economic Governance and management;
(c) Socio-Economic development; and
(d) Corporate Governance.
This interview forms part of the effort to assess Nigeria’s performance on the
four thematic issues. The National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) is responsible for
the mass household survey. NBS is the foremost National Information resource
centre selected because of its competence in carrying out such research.
Your views will be helpful in giving the public a good picture of the performance
of the country on the various aspects of good governance of concern to the
peer review process.
Whatever views that you express during this interview will be treated with
utmost confidentiality and shall not be disclosed to anyone unconnected
with the research. You are not required to disclose your political
affiliation
