CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
Public corporations are enterprises which are partly or wholly owned by the government, which private enterprises have been unable to take care of due to lack of adequate capital.
In any organization, there are so many components put together that make for an effective performance. One of these components is the fund. The problem that arises is the adequacy of the fund for effective other of the operations of an organization, through out its life time many organization which started well at the initial stage have failed by the wayside due to shortage of available funds.
Government have generally started playing a major role in economic development and in starting large enterprise in public sector. Many parastatals care into being when it was believed that rapid economic development required the state to table on the role of an enter premier. I should also be known that government movement in running public sector help in shaping its economy. Government ownership of these enterprises is to help improve its social and economic well being of her people and those amenities that the entrepreneurs cannot provide.
Public enterprise could be classified into four categories according to the degree of government participation in ownership and intervention in management. Firstly, governmental enterprises – composed of various government departments. Secondly government invested enterprises, where the government held at least 50% of the equity and appoint to management. Thirdly, subsidiary company of governmental invested enterprises which allow the government to invest indirectly through government invested enterprises and others. Lastly, governmental backed enterprises where the governmental holds less than 50% of the stock.
In developing nation there is a general believe that government should own and control enterprises due to insufficient capital on the side of these enterprises; and government gave majority control of than and appoint top management.
Over the past decades, the number and variety for public enterprises in developing countries have greatly expanded. In a developing country like Nigeria, the overall performance of these enterprises has been rather disappointing. They have supported staggering losses, thereby becoming a major drain on National budgets and the principal source of heavy external borrowing. They have equally purled to generate the expected job opportunities. Before independence, government establishments were the major employers of labour, but these days with many private enterprises set up by entrepreneurs more people have gained employment with these enterprises and this has reduced the dependence on government establishment and large firms for employment.
However, the followings have contributed to the poor performance and poor efficiency in these enterprises:
- Obscure and sometimes conflicting managerial goals.
- inadequate management accountability and autonomy
- Excessive government interference in day to day management.
- poor personnel and incentive systems
- Complicated budgets and procurement processes.
- inappropriate pricing and credit policies
- Poor financing.
They have contributed to poor performances of public enterprises. The financing and management of these parastatals caused a serous problem in our economy. Its only very few government enterprises that are independent in the issue of financing, others solely depend on government. The fate is yearly tied on the national budgets because they are financed by way of grants, subsidies or loan from government. This equally means that if the government budget is delayed or cut down proposed expenditure, the funds of these enterprises will also be affected. This will determine their performance for that very year whether surplus or deficit is to be made.
- BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
The transport company of Anambra state limited (TRACAS) was launched on 12th September 1988 by the military Governor of Anambra state co. Robert Nnaemeka Akonobi under the spices of the federal urban mass Transit programme (FUMTP). This programme is aimed at alleviating the transportation problem of the people which was occasioned by the dearth of computer vehicle (buses, cars).
To ensure that the traces are efficiently managed, the Anambra state government decided to privatize it, thus; TRACAS was incorporated on the 8th December 1988. The Anambra state government has a 30% hold in TRACAS while remaining 70% will go to the public. Staff will also own shares in the company. The motto of the company is service and comfort.
