Abstract: Entrepreneurship development is often regarded as a key driver of economic growth and long-term development in any given economy. This research examined the influence of entrepreneurship development on the Nigerian economy, as well as how to implement particular principles and get the greatest results for long-term growth. The results show that entrepreneurship makes a significant contribution to job creation and economic growth. The study found that entrepreneurial development inevitably results in employment creation, which leads to economic development. As a result, Nigerians should take advantage of the many economic possibilities available to them; likewise, the government and other institutions should focus their efforts on the purposeful growth of entrepreneurship.
