Abstract

A liberalisation policy would later take effect to ensure that state-owned radio stations did not broadcast beyond their states within Nigeria - this policy, according to the author, was influenced by the IMF and the World Bank. The author familiarises the reader with different scholarly perspectives on public policy actualisation stages, which include problem identification, policy formulation, policy support through legislation, policy implementation and evaluation. The limitation of the liberalisation policy - the available state and private radio stations did little community and development-focused broadcasting - heightened the call for community radio (third-sector broadcasting).
