dc.description.abstractNigeria, identify the challenges and propose options for addressing the challenges. To this end, a comparative analysis of the state of these infrastructural facilities in Nigeria and the usual comparator countries is adopted. The comparator countries are China, Indonesia, Malaysia, South Korea and South Africa. China is included among the comparator countries because of its population size and the remarkable growth and development feat mit achieved over time; Indonesia because it is a large oil producing country; Malaysia and South Korea because their initial conditions were similar to those of Nigeria in the 1960s and South Africa because Nigeria overtook it to become the largest economy in Africa only in 2010. It is anticipated that insights and lessons drawn from this approach will provide useful basis for identifying infrastructural challenges in Nigeria and proposing options for addressing them.en_US
