Abstract

Entrepreneurial development has become one of the foci of Nigerian government in the diversification of the country’s economy. This situation, perhaps, informs why the government has been financially committed to the growth and development of small and medium enterprises (SMEs). This paper, therefore, examines the growth and development of entrepreneurs in Amuwo Odofin Local Government in relations to how effective communication has been promoting this subsector of the economy. Quantitative and qualitative methods of data collection were adopted. In the quantitative approach, quasi�empirical method of focus group discussions (FGDs) was adopted. The participants/respondents were drawn from trade unions/associations to have a relative reliability of the information gathered during the focus group discussions. The data/information gathered revealed that communication also plays pivotal roles in the growth and development of entrepreneurial development in Amuwo Odofin Local Government and Nigeria in general. The play concludes that the government needs to be more committed to entrepreneurial development across the country. Key words: Entrepreneurial development, Nigeria’s mono-economy, the economy of Amuwo Odofin
