Most local areas farm not only to make a living, but also to provide food for the nation. People come from the cities to deceive them, buy them at low prices and bring them back to the cities to make money. yet there is a demographic return.

Nigeria has more than 10 million non-school children, about half of whom are girls - and it is no coincidence that the country with the most non-school children has the most people in extreme poverty. Two thirds of this population is concentrated in densely populated local areas of Nigeria. The lack of public investment in local education has resulted in an educational crisis that has affected more than 2 million children in the area.

This means investing in the potential of human capital and creating jobs for women and young people, improving economic access and opportunities for these groups in rural areas and promoting technological innovation.

Engaging partnerships with the private sector through incentives and reducing social impacts, as well as supporting business ecosystems, are important ways in which the government can help increase growth, as implement in others country.
