{{Short description|Repatriation of the Nigerian public service}}
'''Nigerianisation''' was the policy of training and posting [[Nigerian]]s to positions of responsibility previously occupied by [[expatriate]]s in the public service of the government of [[Nigeria]].{{sfn|McStallworth|1961|p=104}} The process was largely implemented in the 1950s. It was gradual and involved reorganizing government agencies and expanding educational facilities at selected high schools and colleges. Nigerianisation became important as [[Nigeria]] marched towards independence, the Nigerian Council of Ministers and the House of Representatives both supported the idea of a Nigerian control of the Public Service' senior positions such as [[Permanent Secretary|permanent secretaries]].
