Abstract

This paper analyses Nigeria’s poverty alleviation strategies since 1960. There is an indication that despite attempts at curbing poverty through poverty alleviation strategies, Nigeria’s poverty level continues to increase in a worrisome dimension with poverty remaining a hydra-headed monster. The failure of these strategies to reduce Nigeria’s poverty burden has been attributed to several factors including corruption, the multiplicity of programmes which lead to overlapping functions, and poor funding and implementation mechanisms for such programmes. The paper therefore contends that for existing poverty alleviation strategies to achieve desired results, they must be streamlined and must be well funded. The paper also suggests alternative policy and strategic options for poverty reduction including the need to exploit the opportunities in high potential sectors like Agriculture and Information and Communications Technology (ICT) and the need for the educational curriculum to be refocused on skill acquisition and capacity development.
