Nigeria has for long been regarded as the poster child for the 'curse' of oil wealth. Yet despite this, Nigeria achieved strong economic growth for over a decade in the 21st century, driven largely by policy reforms in non-oil sectors. This open access book argues that Nigeria's major development challenge is not the 'oil curse', but rather one of achieving economic diversification beyond oil, subsistence agriculture, informal activities, and across its subnational entities. Through analysis drawing on economic data, policy documents, and interviews, Usman argues that Nigeria's challenge of economic diversification is situated within the political setting of an unstable distribution of power among individual, group, and institutional actors. Since the turn of the century, policymaking by successive Nigerian governments has, despite superficial partisan differences, been oriented towards short-term crisis management of macroeconomic stabilization, restoring growth and selective public sector reforms. To diversify Nigeria's economy, this book argues that successive governments must reorient towards a consistent focus on pro-productivity and pro-poor policies, alongside comprehensive civil service and security sector overhaul. These policy priorities, Nigeria's ruling elites are belatedly acknowledging, are crucial to achieving economic transformation; a policy shift that requires a confrontation with the roots of perpetual political crisis, and an attempt to stabilize the balance of power towards equity and inclusion.

Nigeria has a bold national vision of becoming one of the world s top 20 economies by 2020. However, despite being the 8th most populous country in the world, it ranks 41st in terms of GDP and 161st in terms of GDP per capita. Nigeria has long depended on oil for its exports and government revenues. This dependence has led to rent seeking and a reluctance to examine potential avenues for economic diversification. The authors of 'Knowledge, Productivity, and Innovation in Nigeria' believe that the goal of becoming a top-twenty economy can only be achieved if Nigeria makes the transition to a new economy rooted in the 21st century that harnesses the power of knowledge and avoids a static oil-based growth strategy. Knowledge has always been central to development, but new technologies have made it globally accessible. Countries such as the Republic of South Korea, India, and the United States that have exploited new technologies and know-how have pushed their innovation and productivity frontiers. Countries that have failed to do so risk remaining mired in poverty. In order to achieve Vision 2020, Nigeria must move beyond the stop-start patterns of oil-based development that have characterized it since independence. It must create a stable and prosperous economy based on a critical mass of knowledge workers. Knowledge, Productivity, and Innovation in Nigeria examines how Nigeria can prepare for this century and where its leaders can focus to achieve their vision, presenting the experiences of other countries from which Nigeria can learn.

The global fall in oil prices has caused significant external shocks to developing countries whose sole reliance on oil has seen a drastic fall in revenues that accrues from oil sales. To address this issue, there have been renewed calls for developing countries to diversify their economies so as to protect, mitigate and reduce the external shocks that results from depending on a single source of revenue. Nigeria has made several attempts to heed that call. Still, it has not been very successful in making that transition, although there are indications that it may be heading in that direction. This research set out to examine diversification in developing countries using a case study methodology. The intention is simply to draw lessons from countries who have failed to make the diversification and from those who have made the diversification. The findings of this research reveal that diversification is not only a Nigerian problem, several African countries have diversification issues. Secondly, it is a complex process, and economic diversification needs an enabling environment, the right institutional mix (financial, legal, regulatory and market institutions), the necessary infrastructure, human capital development, entrepreneurship combined with the right policy mix sustained over a considerable period of time. Finally, structural challenges continues to hinder any significant transition in terms of economic diversification in developing countries.

"This book comprises twenty two comprehensive chapters bordering on issues related to the diversification of the Nigerian economy. The chapters are written in plan and easy to understand language for the benefit of the non-professional user. It is a handbook meant to serve the need of undergraduate students in Nigerian institutions of higher learning such as universities, colleges and polytechnics. The emphasis of the first nine chapters was agriculture as the formidable means of diversifying the Nigerian economy. Other chapters explored the nexus between economic diversification and tourism, manufacturing sector, solid, minerals, macroeconomic policies and poverty alleviation. The remaining part of the book elucidated the relevance of foreign direct investment in the quest for diversifying the Nigerian economy towards achieving a broad based as against a mono-economy, relying heavily on oil."--Back cover.
