Résumé
Cette étude porte sur les facteurs non méritocratiques qui influencent le processus de recrutement.
L’objectif principal était d’étudier les facteurs qui influent sur le recrutement et la sélection dans
la fonction publique de l’État d’Oyo, à l’exception du mérite, et de déterminer les conséquences
perçues de la non-méritocratie dans le processus de recrutement. La méthode de recherche par
sondage a été adoptée. Des techniques quantitatives et qualitatives ont été utilisées pour la
collecte de données. Les résultats montrent que la dynamique des processus de recrutement et de
sélection dans la fonction publique de l’État d’Oyo est davantage motivée par des influences
non méritocratiques telles que l’ethnicité, la religion, l’étatisme, la politisation, etc. Nigeria.
Le mérite est miné, ce qui rend l’efficience et l’efficacité difficiles à atteindre dans la fonction
publique. Nous suggérons, comme beaucoup d’autres, que les principes méritocratiques soient
fermement ancrés dans la fonction publique de l’État d’Oyo et que le processus de recrutement
soit dépourvu de facteurs non méritocratiques.
