Various authors work were reviewed in line with the existing literatures on civil service and its impact on policy implementation. The researcher used primary and secondary sources to collect data for the research while questionnaire were distributed to the 323 officers of different ranks in the state. All the questionnaires retrieved were analysed using simple percentages and frequency table. Findings reveal that corruption, nepotism, tribalism and ethnicity is a cog in the wheel of Kaduna State Civil Service.
