The Employment Creation Potentials Of Small Scale Business In Anocha Local Government Area, Anambra State

ABSTRACT

Unemployment situation in Nigeria has regarded economic development and growth ever since 1981  after the declaration of Austeinsy measure. The evil effects of unemployment is a vicious circle that cripples and economy.  

It is against this background that I was motivated to choose this topic to identify how small scale business can provide the necessary solution with particular reference to Aniocha geo political territory. 

I believe that unemployment is a major problem in Nigeria especially in Aniocha local government area and that this problem can only be solved by the establishment of small scale business. This study is embarked upon with qualitatively that employment potentials of small scale business is the necessary solution to our employment and economic malaise. 

The researcher while embarking on this study intends to make use of primary data through the use of questionnaire to be distributed to some selected small business operating in Aniocha. 

This data had been analysed using Test Hypothesis  to show  whether a relationship exist between increase in small scale business and employment in Aniocha local government area. 

Also secondary method of data collection through the use of information from small scale business in Aniocha area; and federal office of statistics would be employed with a view of showing the number of and increase in small scale industry and increase or decrease in unemployment in Aniocha. Besides, there are journals news papers and delivered papers would be examined as they relate to this topic. 

The analysis and testing of the data would suggest whether the null or alternative hypothesis would be accepted. The writer intend to draw an inference from the conclusion given by the result and on that basis recommend to the government, especially  Aniocha local government area, on what direction she is expected to follow and direct her policies, this is because this study is particularly significant to the locality.
