Book excerpt: "Following years of economic stagnation, Nigeria embarked on a comprehensive reform program during the second term of the Obasanjo administration. The program was based on the National Economic Empowerment and Development Strategy (NEEDS) and focused on four main areas: improving the macroeconomic environment, pursuing structural reforms, strengthening public expenditure management, and implementing institutional and governance reforms. This paper reviews Nigeria's recent experience with economic reforms and outlines major policy measures that have been implemented. Although there have been notable achievements under the program, significant challenges exist, particularly in translating the benefits of reforms into welfare improvements for citizens, in improving the domestic business environment, and in extending reform policies to states and local governments." The authors argue that the reform program must be considered as 'initial steps on a long journey'; consequently, they have outlined a number of outstanding issues that need to be addressed by future Nigerian administrations.

Book excerpt: 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 individu

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study is an empirical work that focused on the social economic impact of unemployment in Nigeria. The purpose of the study was to investigate the effect of unemployment on socio-economic development of the country with particular attention to poverty situation and Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Data for the study was generated using secondary sources. Analysis of the data was done with the aid of time series data and Ordinary Least Square (OLS). The analysis revealed that there is functional relationship between unemployment and socio-economic development, with reference to poverty and GDP. In view of the findings of the study, the study concludes that if unemployment problem is not tackled in Nigeria, then the total output generated in the country will continue to fall below its potential level. This implies loss on the entire nation and consequently socio-economic retardation. Based on the conclusion, major policy recommendations were proffered. In addition to improved educational system, provision of necessary infrastructure and enabling environment, Government should encourage and embark on Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) development, improve educational system, provide necessary infrastructure and other vital enabling environmental factors.

Book excerpt: Economic development is a process whereby the real per capita income of a country is increased and sustained over a long period of time subject to some caveats. First, this process is subject to the stipulations that the number below the absolute poverty line does not increase and that the distribution of income does not become more unequai (Meier, 1976 and Aboyade, 1976). Second, such a process must experience some elements of modernisation such as enhanced productivity, social and economic equalisation; improved knowledge, attitudes and institutions; and rationally coordinated policy measures that are capable of removing all obstacles to socio-economic transformation (Abciyade, 1976; Obadart, 1998; Ohiorhenuan, 2000). The World Summit for Social Development held in Copenhagen in 1995 and its follow-up in June 2000 added yet another caveat which is to popularise the human dimension of the issue. With this caveat, human beings are placed at the core of any meaningful economic development. They are the means and ends of economic development. As clearly evident in Nigeria's development documents, the primary goal of economic development policies has been geared towards the actualisation of a solid base for long-term economic and social transformation of the country with a view to establishing peace, progress and prosperity. The realisation of this laudable objective informed the adoption of several economic policies and strategies. in the country. Since independence, economic development policies have been very dynamic. Between 1960 and 1985, government thought that a fixed medium-term National Development Plan framework would transform Nigeria into the type of society it envisaged. The economic crisis of the early 1980s clearly showed the futility of this approach in the Nigerian context. This, therefore, led to the adoption of a comprehensive Structural Adjustment Programme (SAP) which emphasised a policybased economic management strategy (1986-1990). After more than five years of implementing SAP, it became obvious that its performance was mixed and tilted towards non-accomplishment of its major objectives. The adoption of a three-tier planning system since 1990, a framework that comprises a perspective plan, a three-year rolling plan and an annual budget, also left much to be desired in terms of achieving its goals.
