Abstract

Although policy makers and practitioners are aware of the importance of entrepreneurship in reducing unemployment among the Nigerian youths they have failed to give it the deserved attention. This paper examines the impact of viewing enterpreneurship as a platform towards reducing youth unemployment which currently stands at 55 percent. It examines some of the major factors/constraints which hinder an enterpreneurship culture. It concludes by proposing some strategies that promote effective enterpreneurship.
