Abstract

It is important in assessing the capacity of public institutions, especially institutions responsible for the design and implementation of rural development projects in Nigeria. The objective of the study is to examine the impact of performance appraisal of public institutions on service delivery and rural areas in Nigeria. The research adopted an expo facto research design. This was necessary because the data for the study were obtained mainly from secondary sources. Extant literature was assessed to explain the variables of the study. The literature was evaluated with content analysis. The issues raised provided the basis for suggestions to improve the Nigerian public sector appraisal system so as to effectiveness in the rural development process.
