It is because of social issues like economic inequalities, unemployment that made the state to interfere in the economy of Nigeria. Government choose public sector as a means or medium for economic and social development due to poor managerial skills, weak technological base etc. This enhanced the zeal to establish various enterprise institutions in Nigeria. Due to inadequate capital and lack of finance, public enterprises in Nigeria are confronted with many problems by the employees, managers and political interference in the affairs of public enterprises. The project title is the policy of privatisation and commercialisation of public enterprises with a case study of telecommunication industries. This research made use of some relevant textbooks and also secondary method of data collection, he found out that privatisation is seen as means to harness economy or as measure to increase efficiency of the public sector or organisation and also the privatisation and commercialisation has improved the potential, the efficiency and service delivery in Nigeria by making telecommunication easily accessible and affordable. These are the recommendations: as the privatisation is in the hands of few individuals, government should ensure that before granting the license or opportunity, they should examine and select the competent people who will handle private enterprises and not people of questionable character. The only thing left is for government to hands off from those enterprises.
