Abstract
The Nigerian economy is endowed with enormous human and non-human resources to be one of the world's strongest economies. But it has been observed that the resources which are available are not fully utilized. The inability to positively exploit our resources in the area of socio-economic development is a reflection of the paucity of the development and empowerment of socio-economic entrepreneurs hip. Besides, negligence of entrepreneurial training in our tertiary institutions has aggravated this problem and is quite worrisome. In order to reverse these ugly trends, there is the need to train individuals on entrepreneurial skills. The rationale for this paper therefore stems from the need to create a continuous awareness of the contributions of entrepreneurship in Nigeria economy and also to provide a 'locus standi'for future researchers and young school leavers. In consonance with this, the paper therefore seeks to examine a variety of situations before and after entrepreneurship awareness has been created. The paper further examines the types of entrepreneurship that can be developed within the context of Nigeria. The paper also takes a swipe at the problems of Nigerian entrepreneur ship. The paper concludes with a summary of the entire work and provides a solution to the problems of Nigerian entrepreneur ship.
