Abstract


In an attempt to develop, most developing nations have adopted different developmental policies, giving little or no attention to the principal factors of development. This paper investigated the importance of entrepreneurship when qualifying and quantifying the aggregate indexes of development. The writers argued that in accomplishing the quest for development in Nigeria by 20:2020, entrepreneurship should be considered as the most viable tool. The article structured and synthesized the existing scholarly works, thereby generating new knowledge. The results can be used to enhance fruitful development policy. The article integrated Entrepreneurship and National Development by first identifying conceptual problem of development and then concentrated more on the role of entrepreneurship in National development. The benefits and problems of entrepreneurship in Nigeria are discussed as well as the way out.
