英文文献摘要：
Despite an impressive level of privatization activity across Africa and the upsurge in research on the operating performance of privatized firms in both developed and developing economies, our empirical knowledge of the privatization programme in Africa is limited. This study appraises the post-privatization performance of some privatized enterprises in Nigeria. The specific indicators examined are profitability, productive efficiency, employment, capital investment, output, prices and taxes. The study measures the change in any given indicator of performance by comparing its average value five years before and five years after privatization. Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is also deployed to assess changes in the level of technical efficiency in the selected enterprises. The results, albeit mixed, show significant increases in these indicators. Privatization is also associated with increase in technical efficiency in the affected enterprises. Reduction of politically motivated resource allocation has unquestionably been the principal benefit of privatization in Nigeria.

尽管整个非洲的私有化活动令人印象深刻，而且发达国家和发展中国家经济中对私有化公司经营业绩的研究急剧增加，但我们对非洲私有化方案的经验知识是有限的。本研究评估了尼日利亚一些私有化企业私有化后的绩效。具体考察的指标包括盈利能力、生产效率、就业、资本投资、产出、价格和税收。这项研究通过比较私有化前五年和私有化后五年的平均价值来衡量任何给定绩效指标的变化。数据包络分析(DEA)也用于评估所选企业的技术效率水平的变化。尽管结果喜忧参半，但这些指标显著上升。私有化还与受影响企业技术效率的提高有关。减少出于政治动机的资源分配无疑是尼日利亚私有化的主要好处。
