Drivers of Nigeria’s Socio-Economic Growth and Development available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2019 in the subject African Studies - Culture and Applied Geography, , language: English, abstract: The popular Aphorism; ‘Black is not synonymous to lack” is constantly brought to check every time the media reveals disheartening news and clips of poverty-ravaged places in Nigeria. Like it or not, current statistics globally relates the black race to skyrocketing levels of wants and poverty. It is forever bewildering when the stats are brought up and a country such as Nigeria- the supposed giant of Africa sits amidst nations perishing in the loosed hands of poverty. It is more perplexing when the resources in the country are taken into consideration. Consisting of virtually all kinds of raw materials capable of changing the socio-economic phase of her people, it is distasteful that a large set of Nigerians live in abject poverty. In a bid to counter the problem at hand, some ‘well-Meaning-Nigerians’ has proffered that the wretched climate of the nation is attributed to the fact that the nation is barely young when compared to other civilizations and hence must not be viewed on a parallel basis. This statement however, is not entirely true as it will spell folly on the nation if we wait to be over Three hundred (300) years before expecting significant change. In my own outlook, we stand a better chance than any nation in the world today. We have the experiences of these nations to learn from, a bountiful land arguably the most blessed in terms of mineral and agricultural resources, and above all, a whooping youthful population capable of rejuvenating the socio-economic facade of the nation. For a country having all it takes to be a major world power, it is typical to wonder why her current status quo says otherwise. It is not with all the acumen in the world if the issues constraining her socio-economic redundancy is attributed to a direct negligence to the Nigerian youth. The youth remains the active set of individuals and thereby responsible for nation building. I consider the Nigerian youth as a fragile bomb. If handled carefully, they possess the prowess to deliver the nation into victory over her socio-economic hurdles. Likewise, neglect will spell catastrophe on the socio-economic development of the nation as they find solace in antisocial vices.

The challenges and opportunities facing the Nigerian youths demand rethinking of new ways of doing things. Youth unemployment and underemployment are at a record high. More than ever, the Nigerian youths are in dire need of finding other avenues to explore in pursuit of life endeavors. Youth employment, underemployment, and unemployment are serious concerns for our society, civilization, and the nation. Ehiobuche and Madueke took a different approach to discussing and presenting a practical approach to youth entrepreneurshipfrom the notion of a shared responsibility for the change of mindset from falling into the victims theory dimensions to intelligent ventures and resilience. Their model presents insight on how a paradigm shift among the youths and the society in general from job search to business development may well lead to entrepreneurs and self-productive citizens. The authors hope to inspire, inform, and encourage todays youths to become tomorrows entrepreneurs, leaders, and good citizens. Making the transition from seeking employment, unemployment, or underemployment to self-employment/entrepreneurship is the primary purpose of this book. The topics include the following: Conquering personal and cultural roadblocks to entrepreneurship Shifting mental and physical focus from employee to employer Avoiding common pitfalls in starting and running a sustainable small business Making the best out of being a youth The authors urge the Nigerian youths to avoid falling into a victim mentality and start their paradigm shift into the mindsets of entrepreneurs.

The extent of poverty experienced by Nigerian youth and its effects on national security, sustainable poverty-reduction, socio-economic development, and the global economy has made youth-poverty a serious concern worthy of timely redress. Accordingly, this study explores potential remedies to curb youth-poverty in Nigeria from the economic-empowerment standpoint. The study adopts four steps to address the research problem. First, it reviews the relevant literature related to the topic. Second, it investigates the extent, nature, and causes of youth-poverty in Nigeria. It also examines the limitations of the national monetary, fiscal, and labour policy processes, and the efforts of the non-government agencies in contributing effectively to the reduction of youth- verty in Nigeria. Third, it gained insight into these investigations through qluilitative in-depth interviews with twenty-two purposely selected macroeconomic and labour policy process officials. Fourth, an analysis of the findings based on a framework approach along with the relevant theoretical outlook, facilitated potential policy recommendations for managing youth-poverty in Nigeria. Amid other fmdings, inadequate economic-empowerment and increased poverty amongst young people in Nigeria is largely associated with the unsatisfactory performance patterns of both past and present governments. The poor socio-economic and politico-legal situations in the country not only limited monetary, fiscal, and labour policy processes but also have hampered the efforts of non-government agencies in achieving economic-empowerment and poverty-reduction for Nigerian youth. The study concluded that both global and national youth-poverty reduction policy frameworks are required to deal adequately with the factors limiting the economic- empowerment and emergence of young Nigerians from poverty. It underscores good democratic governance, as essential tool to attain youth economic-empowerment and poverty-reduction in Nigeria. The study argued strongly that only responsive governance can create the requisite structure to address the problem of youth-poverty.
