Decentralization and Economic Development in Nigeria
Author: Nwafejoku Okolie Uwadibie
Publisher: University Press of America
ISBN: 9780761815051
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 164
Book Description
This is the only book of its kind to address the effect of agricultural decentralization on the Nigerian national economy. In his effort to demonstrate how decentralization promotes development that can economically empower individuals, Uwadibie thoroughly analyzes three key aspects of Nigeria's decentralization policy. These are the Local Government Reform Act of 1976, the creation of new states, and the implementation of the Structural Adjustment Program (SAP). Together, these policies reduced the overall role of the federal government in the national economy by diverting revenue to states and dissolving the federal government's direct ownership of agricultural enterprises. Based on his extensive research, Uwadibie concludes by making a number of additional policy recommendations that he believes are essential for Nigeria to become self-sufficient in food production. Those with an interest in African studies, economic development, or agricultural production will find much to their liking in this work.

State, Class and Underdevelopment in Nigeria and Early Meiji Japan
Author: Sakah Saidu Mahmud
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 1349139416
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
This book compares the social processes that explain Japanese development, beginning with the Meiji Restoration in 1868, with similar processes in post-independent Nigeria in its effort to achieve capitalist development. Before the Restoration and independence, both Japan and Nigeria lacked any prospects for further development. Japan, however, pursued fundamental social transformations of society leading to capitalist development, whereas Nigeria, following independence, has lacked any transforming ideals resulting in underdevelopment and social stagnation.

Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1504935365
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 378
Book Description
The Book The Kolade’s Canons are published in three volumes containing what might best be described as Christopher Kolade’s ecclesiastical declarations over the last 40 years. The volumes contain first-class materials, based on highly cherished African values with foundations in universal principles, from a first-class mind. This volume, Kolade’s Canons 2, focuses on Business and Economy, Nation Building and Ethics. Without sound ethics builders of lives, organisations or nations build on a false foundation. The first volume, Kolade’s Canons 1, focuses on People, Leadership and Management. In it he directs readers to enduring leadership principles which, if put into practice can lead to the transformation of individuals, enterprises and nations. The third volume, Kolade’s Canons 3, is devoted entirely to Broadcasting, Christopher Kolade’s second career start up. The volumes are not textbooks but a collection of a refined gentleman’s speeches and teachings. They provide teachers, students, policy makers and policy executors deep insights to think and talk about, as well as test in the arena of practice. The earliest papers date back 40 years, yet they remain relevant because they are principles-based; and because Dr Kolade was also thinking for future generations.
