Abstract

 Economic growth of a country is measured by the rate of increase in a country’s gross domestic product. While the gross domestic product is a key measure by which policy makers estimate how well the economy is doing, it provides little information on how families and individuals are doing in the country. Lack of employment opportunities and the consequential income disparity bring about mass poverty in most of the developing and under developed countries. Nigeria’s unemployment level is a major concern to all stakeholders in the country as the unemployment rate rises. This study provides empirical findings on the effect of small and medium scale enterprises on employment generation in Ogun State, Nigeria. The study uses 17 item questionnaire in generating its data, which was subjected to different statistics, these are; simple percentage and chi-square in order to answer questions and test hypotheses formulated in the study. The study revealed that there was a significant contribution of small scale businesses to employment generation in Ogun State. It also showed that the quality of employment generated by small scale business in Ogun State is not high. The study recommends that, there is need for small and medium scale enterprise, civil Society, organizations, non -governmental Organizations to collaborate with the State Government in other to provide qualitative employment that can sustained the development of this nation.
