INTRODUCTION

BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY

The effect of bureaucratic administration on secretarial function: Bureaucracy in Government Administration A bureaucratic Administration can said to be a system of administration which provide routine and uninterrupted service especially in government circle such as ministries, parastatals or government establishment to ensure that government policies are carried out effectively and diligently. Therefore it is a step by step way in which official duties are carried out from the executive down to the lowest staff. The Nigeria Government got this idea from British who during their stay in Nigeria have been practicing bureaucracy in their governmental system, through “fixed authority and official jurisdiction” where the authority of all individual is based upon specific grant of power to an office. Modern Practice of Bureaucracy in Government Establishments The practice of bureaucracy in government establishments has changed. The early practice requires the office holder to possess some traditional virtue such as age, skill and knowledge which becomes the basis of his or her authority. However, in today’s practice, bureaucracy has caused a negative effect in civil service as well as secretarial functions.
