Abstract
This paper deals with the strategies for enhancing entrepreneurial
skills in Nigerian youths. It examines the characteristics of
entrepreneurs and their need for entrepreneurial education. It also
points out the role of tertiary institutions in developing
entrepreneurs and also deepening entrepreneurial attributes in
individuals. It presents that argument that the traditional system of
education does not promote entrepreneurship skills but rather
stifles them, and that for entrepreneurship to be promoted, there
ought to be changes in both the process and content of learning. It
suggests that tertiary institutions should gear the learning process
towards enhancing the entrepreneurial skills of youths.
