Abstract:

This study sought to examine the accountability and economic development in Nigeria. Specifically, the study determined the effect of accountability on the level of gross domestic product in Nigeria and evaluated the effect of accountability on the level of public capital expenditure in Nigeria. Ex-post facto research design was employed, and data was gathered from the World Development Index (WDI) and Central Bank of Nigeria (2014-2023). In order to evaluate the analysis, two hypotheses were tested using an auto-regressive distributed lag approach. The findings revealed that there is a signif

This study examines capital expenditure and economic development: implications for economic planning in Nigeria from 1990-2020. Specifically, the study seeks to examine the effect of capital expenditure on economic growth as a prerequisite for planning, and to examine the effect of some selected sectors as a tool for planning in Nigeria. The study employs the Autoregressive distributed lag bound (ARDL) technique and descriptive statistics to address the specific objectives. The study reveals that capital expenditure significantly impact economic growth both in the short run and in the long run

Abstract:

This research investigated the nexus between public spending on infrastructural development and economic growth: evidence from Nigeria. As a matter of urgency, there is a need for the Nigerian government to invest in infrastructure for sustainable economic growth since infrastructural development touches all human fields of endeavors in one way or another. Notably, despite the countryâ€™s pole position in the economic ranking in Africa, Nigeriaâ€™s infrastructural state still falls short, which has led to negative economic growth in recent years. Therefore, it is pertinent in this study to unr

Corruption has a way of influencing social economic and political factors of any nation directly and (or) indirectly through the country’s institutional framework. The basis of both ‘grease the wheels’ and ‘sand the wheel’ hypotheses of corruption lie in the interaction between corruption and institutional features, hence the need for democracy. This study empirically investigated the impact of corruption on economic development by incorporating the institutional feature (democracy) in Nigeria. The study used primary source of data.

Abstract:

For many years, the Nigerian economy has been precariously reliant on crude oil, a single, volatile commodity, for its sustenance. As a result, its growth trajectory has been uneven and influenced by fluctuations in oil prices. It is concerning that Nigeria has neglected the development of its non-oil sector over the years and has become increasingly dependent on the oil industry to raise money.

The language policy in Nigeria granted the English language as the status of being the sole official language, and the language of instruction in the country. This approach influenced the educated people's competence, and subsequently, attitudes towards others within their locality and global arena.

Nigeria is richly endowed with vast but largely untapped natural resources including solid minerals and arable land. Mining industries have been viewed as key drivers of economic growth and development process, as lead sectors that drive economic expansion which can lead to higher levels of social and economic well being. Contributions from mining as a percentage of GDP in rich countries are usually between 2-8 percent. In Nigeria, the contribution is still low at 0.15 percent, one of the major factors responsible for this is as a result of over dependence of the Nigerian economy on the procee
