Folasade Yemi-Esan, the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation,  has attributed the failure of past civil service reforms in Nigeria to poor funding, inadequate provision in MDAs to fund implementation of reforms, lack of skilled manpower as well as poor communication at planning and implementation stages.
