%U https://www.hausarbeiten.de/document/374982
%X The contemporary Nigerian schools do more of theoretical than practical knowledge impartation cum acquisition. The media also do/pay little or no attention to the promotion and marketing of entrepreneurship and technical and vocational education (TVE), which they ought to drive with their agenda-setting role. Graduates keep roaming the streets of towns and cities for white-collar and paid private jobs in vein. The imperative of changing their mentality cum addressing un/underemployment issues in some practical ways is why this work is put forward. It reveals that school curricula are deficient of the practical TVE and entrepreneurial skills education that could adequately prepare graduates for self-employment and job creation. Also, most graduates and other members of the public would have been widely involved in entrepreneurship if the media had duly marketed it, and if the government had supported (begins to support) technical/vocational education and entrepreneurship development. It also discovers that emerging young entrepreneurs easily fall out of their ventures as a result of lack of capital and the requisites skills and other harsh contending challenges. It submits that the wide marketing of TVE and entrepreneurship is the panacea for poverty alleviation and un/underemployment issues. It prevails on these state agents to begin to live up to expectation by extensively promoting and supporting TVE and entrepreneurship that have huge uneven development potentials and opportunities. The study relied basically on secondary data along with observation and intuition. The descriptive survey method, the qualitative approach and the text-guide content analysis were employed.
