International Aspects of Nigeria's Economic Reforms

Abstract

This paper attempts to draw a relationship between Nigeria's previous failed economic reforms and external influences from international financial institutions, which had constantly resulted in chronic economic misfortunes. Now that homegrown economic programmes are currently being undertaken in Africa through NEPAD and, particularly, in Nigeria through NEEDS, it is expected that rigorous and consistent implementation of these reform initiatives would enhance the attainment of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) in African countries by 2015.
