This study is directed towards the relationship
between the economic environment in Nigeria and its
indigenous private sector from 1960 to 1980. Nigeria
practices mixed capitalism aided by the national
government, foreign governments and international
agencies.
The 1972 and 1977 Indigenization Decrees were passed
to eliminate foreigners from certain economic fields to be
replaced by Nigerian citizens. The economic environment
of Nigeria is less than suitable for the operation of
modern business. Roads, telephones, telex services,
electricity services, law and order and a few other
critical underpinnings of business are inefficiently
provided for in the economic system of the country.
Despite the unfortunate economic environment Nigerian
Entrepreneurs, especially the Ibos, have been particularly
industrious. However, indigenous private enterprise in
the country has not been especially successful.
