Description

Explore the complex history of economic progress in Africa with Development in Nigeria: Promise on Hold?. This Routledge publication examines the trajectories and challenges of development in Nigeria from its independence in 1960 to the present day. Despite possessing vast human and material resources, the nation has faced significant hurdles in meeting its growth expectations. This book looks at the various factors that have shaped development initiatives and efforts across the country. It addresses the recurring theme of near-misses, where immense potential exists alongside a lack of practical output. By studying these patterns, the text seeks to identify lessons that can help Nigeria move toward achieving its full economic and social potential. It is an essential resource for students, researchers, and professionals interested in African economic policy and the realities of national development.
