Industrial, Science and Technology Policy in Nigeria Available to Purchase

Given the critical and wider transformational role of technology on industrialisation and socio-economic activities, national governments have become increasingly concerned with drawing up policies that would create the enabling environment for science and technology (S&T) to flourish and accelerate industrialisation for the benefit of the wider society. However, given the flaws in policies largely associated with African countries, including Nigeria, successive policy formulations leave much to be desired. This work sets out to explore the Nigerian context to address policy gaps and advance the wider debate around coherent and implementable policies. We conclude with recommendations to help the Nigerian government make informed decisions when it comes to shaping S&T policies and implementation strategies for future advancement.
