초록/요약
ABSTRACT Nigeria has maintained an impressive growth rate of 5.4%, 8.3%, and 7.8% in 2011, 2012 and 2013 respectively to become the leading economy in Africa and the 23rd according to the world global rank of 2014. With her average growth rate in population rising rapidly, it has a prospect of becoming a leader among the global economic powers. One might presume that, within the past decade, the recent growth is commensurate with the population increase alongside with social inclusiveness in benefit distribution, poverty reduction, social peace, unemployment and satisfactory wages among other, but the reverse is the case while her GDP increases. A paradox exit in the pattern of wealth distribution in Nigeria; a higher GDP had had no effect on the citizen but rather resulted in more terrific situations that risk and threaten the securities of her citizenries and the economy is becoming more hollowed out. This is because in the pursuit of National development, Nigeria is influenced by social scientists with development theories and practices that are obsolete, inadequate and have no prospect in the 21th century. A consequent of inappropriate perception of the nature of the problems and the misappropriation of its core values for a continuous positive improvement, maintenance, resilient and sustainability in the mist of ongoing globalization, are reason why this research was instigated to investigate such minutiae. Based on my technological background, I seek to find and try to redress the core components for such retrogression in the midst of abundance (human, financial and natural resources) and why transformation has failed to provide a better life. The nation must be willing and able to take responsibility for a positive transformation with adequate and quality learning processes and structures. Education of all kinds as well as technical learning are indispensable for endogenous empowerment, human capital formation and social trust building that will consequently yield a dynamic, complementary and a sustainable national green economy. Therefore, lessons from the development experience described as the ‘Korean Miracle’ must be learnt. A thorough reworking is also imperative since Nigeria had begun to exploit the service and non-oil sectors. They are the economic drivers in recent years, thus there is the need to quickly redress the situation to realize a long lasting decade of sustained growth and development. Inclusive strategies involving major effort to sufficiently trickle down to the poor, the national wealth and opportunities that are highly concentrated to few elites is imperative. Hence, the need exist to stimulate social innovations, knowledge society, technologies etc. This research is written to situate Nigeria as a driver and frontier of the 21th century economy by ‘leap forging’ industrialization and its consequences and tries to contribute to the existing knowledge that recognize and emphasizes the relevance and applicability of both formal and informal education and technological learning as an important tool for citizen’s endogenous survival; orientation, reorientation, empowerment for national development and sustainability endeavor of the 21th century.
