Revitalizing Entrepreneurship Education for Political Stability and Enhanced Security in Nigeria

Abstract

Insecurity and political fluctuations are diseases that bedevil Nigeria nowadays. To cure it, there is a need to revitalise Entrepreneurship Education in both formal and non-formal learning environments. This is to equip the youth with an ability, capacity and competencies to provide themselves with economic and social security so that they cannot be a material for distracting national security. Distracting national security is by practicing undesirable behaviours such as stealing, raping, drug abuse, thuggery, burglary, insurgencies, fraud, kidnapping etc. it will also help in reducing conflict over limited resources and political position. Nigeria will be a great country where stability will feature as one of its features, if Government and stakeholders should provide loans and business empowerment especially for the graduates to start and boost their business so they cannot have a time and interest in fighting for political positions.
