Why is it important?

The article concludes that the National Universities Commission's directives should be monitored for effectiveness. Practical entrepreneurship facilities can be established to harvest entrepreneurship ideas among students. University entrepreneurship ecosystem requires sufficient boost to ensure the transition of intentions of students into entrepreneurial actions.

Perspectives

Development experts have argued that entrepreneurship education (EE) equips students for job creation and reduces the rate of graduate unemployment. Several studies examined entrepreneurial interest and practice among the undergraduates in Nigeria before and after the introduction of compulsory entrepreneurship education in 2006. However, the perception of students on EE and university entrepreneurship ecosystem has not been investigated.
