It adopts a survey research design, quantitative and qualitative methods of data collection. One hundred and ninety six respondents were selected thorough a simple random sampling technique to respond to the questionnaire. The research questions were answered using descriptive statistics while hypotheses were tested using chi-square. The findings reveal that there is a significant relationship between public bureaucracy and service delivery in Ogun State; and there are challenges to effective service delivery by Ogun State Ministry of Education. Most of the respondents opined that bureaucratic processes at Ministry of Education impact negatively on service delivery as measured by productivity and efficiency.
