Abstract

In recent time, there has been increasing clamour for state withdrawal on social welfare services provision in Nigeria. The argument borders on efficiency, rationality, cost management and optimal resource allocation which is associated with privately provided social welfare services. This paper examines the situation in Nigeria. It explores the gains and losses that accrue to state withdrawal from the provision of social welfare service with a view to determining who benefits most whether it is the public or a privileged few in the society.
