Both primary and secondary data were collected to solve the research instrument used for data collection were questionnaires, oral interview frequency tables and percentages were used in presenting and analyzing the data collected. The chi-square formula was also used to test the various hypothesis.

Based on the findings, the researcher recommended the following.
- Entrepreneurship development programme (EDP) should be integrated in our educational system.

- Government should subside imported machinery which would stimulate domestic engineering and machine workshop which potentially important in helping scale business enterprise improve on the equipments.
The conclusion of the study is that promotion of small scale enterprises must occupy a prominent position in both the state and federal government industrial policy. Most especially if the sate hopes to occupy its rightful place as a leading industrial state in Nigeria.

INTRODUCTION
1.1Â BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Nigeria economy far back before the advent of oil exploration in the early 70’s was an agrarian economy. Nigeria was not considered a rich country at the time, but the nation was able to fed itself adequately and the economy was very buoyant.
At this time, 85% of the country’s export earning was from agricultural product. During this period also, Nigeria has been making concerted effort toward the economic development of the sovereign nation.
Most enterprises propelling the activities of the nation were mainly on large scale being set up by the federal government which were capital intensive, these enterprises were being operated mostly by foreigners some other industrial plants in the economy then, were owned by Europeans and also master minded by their experts.
The oil boom era shifted the nation’s emphasis from agriculture to mainly cruse oil. Nigeria had a lot of money, but that was the starting point of the problem of the economy.
The economy could not move forward due to mismanagement by the country’s leadership that led to conspicuous extravagant spending the nation started suffering from economic depression such as inflation mass unemployment, high foreign debts, money devolution’s and so many others.
In response to these weaknesses of large scale enterprises, coupled with the total economic depression government then sought to promote small scale enterprises as a strategy for achieving self reliance and the only way to match on into an industrialized economy. Government has championed the campaign for individuals, most especially the unemployed one’s to be creative and be self employed.
Coupled with this quite a lot of funds programmes and employment scheme have been launched both at state and federal level. Some of these programmes are the national economic empowerment development strategy (NEEDS), small scale industry credit scheme (SSICS), National directorate of employment (NDE),Federal office of statistics, Niger Delta development commission (NDC), which have been providing loan facilities for small scale industrial owners.
To further show the importance of this sector and the potentials it has in promoting an industrialized and self- reliance economy, government national development plan of (2000-2010) explicitly stated the main objectivities of the programme geared toward the development of small scale industries as the creation of employment opportunities mobilization of local resource.
These are to be achieved through complementary assistance to small scale entrepreneur in financial management, technical conceptual and human relations skills. The main vehicle designated for administering development centers (ADC) and the states small scale industrial scheme (SSIS)
Small scale businesses are generally more flexible and more willing to exploit new opportunities. Therefore a small scale enterprise encourages indigenous entrepreneurship which helps to develop our rural areas and reduce rural urban migration. Therefore it is undoptably accepted that small scale business enterprise forms the bed rock of any nation’s industrial take off.
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
For Nigeria to excel industrially there is the need to promote and develop this sector because it serves as the bedrock of the countries industrial development. Unfortunately ,t he sector could not grow fast due to some problems facing the sector both internally and externally. This project work wills therefore investigation on the following:
- a) Managerial problem that hinders the promotion of entrepreneurial development.
- b) Lack of credit and infrastructure deficiencies.
- c) Various administrations in Nigeria that lack the will and power to evolve appropriate institutional strategies to ensure a co-ordinate system of assistance to small business enterprises
Based on the knowledge gathered from this study, small business entrepreneur have limited experience and this should utilize simple and uncomplicated approach to planning their activities. The basic planning process for small entrepreneur development is as follows:
