Abstract

Nigeria remains underdeveloped fifty two years after colonial rule exporting primary raw materials and depending on imports of everything including even the debasing second hand goods. This paper examines the capacity of engineering innovation to transform the economy. Approach of successive governments was analyzed. A linkage was traced between engineering innovation industrialization and the nation’s well-being. We conclude that power and the attitude of the people affect engineering innovation and industrial development.
