The Issue
Nigeria’s population is now pushing towards 210 million, over 60% of which is under the age of 25 years. There is an overburden on the current system put in place to provide access to economic opportunity for young people. The economy is dominated by the informal economy which makes up more than 45% of our economic system, but do not have access to economic resources because it is unregulated and unstructured. This rids it of access to innovation resources that affects the potential of the sector. However, the undergraduate community can design solutions within the local economy to impact the economic and socioeconomic health of communities across Nigeria. This would be achieved through the creation of an enabling environment for Value creation as outlined in the Venture Matrix for the Future of Africa. We would get it started, but we need to get the Government involved by paying attention to our limitations in making this happen.
