ABSTRACT
This study is aimed at finding out the role  government should play in promoting small scale industries. This study has been divided into five chapters thus;
Chapter one is the introduction, sitting out the background of the study. The researcher highlighted that the performance of small scale industries should be promoted by the government. This study is of paramount importance because it helps to discover the problems facing the small scale industries in the course of not been promoted by the government
Chapter two is a review of related literature, it started by the definition of small scale industries, the government involved, assistance provided by the government to small scale industries, government policies for promoting small scale industries.
Chapter three decals with the research design and methodology employed in the study. here data were collected from secondary source
Chapter four, stated the findings or result collected in the course of this research work.
Finally, Chapter five states the conclusion and recommendation of the study.
CHAPTER ONE
1.0 INTRODUCTIONS
Large — scale manufacturing has been the main thrust of Nigeria’s development program over time. However, it is being widely acknowledged that Nigeria should be the Centre Piece for effective short and long run development of any nation such as Niger. Both the federal and state government on one hand and general public on the other attest to the fact through their efforts toward the development of the country side of Nigeria.
In realization of this and in pursuance of its attainment, the federal government created the directorate for foods, roads and rural infrastructure (FRRI) to work in partnership with the rural communities toward provision of amenities such as rural roads, water boreholes and
production of more foods As well several states, which Anambra is one of them have adopted rural development program which is charged with the responsibility of developing and coordinating Nigeria activities in the state. From the on-going, there, it is clear that the government and people of the country now attach much importance to rural development the nee to achieve integrated this study with the objective of determining the role of government in promoting he establishment of small scale industries in the rural areas can play in this regard.
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
The successive development plans of Nigeria have laid
Emphasis on the attainment of self reliance. The need for this national objects is because must of expected from individuals from the view point of providing employment opportunities self reliance in basic food and material production high per capital income, foreign exchange and the production of industrial raw materials.
Okporobie (1989) observes that Nigeria small scales continued to decline despite the so called priority given to the sector. However, the discovery by the state government aht this policy as not enough by itself led to the state government request with effect from 1970/80 that all local government must reserve a proportion of the minimum credit allocation to indigenous borrowers for small scales Nigeria enterprises. The target prescribed in 1979 was ten percent (100/c) which subsequently rose to sixteen percent (16%). Even though available data showed that performance of local government against this directive has beer disappointing. The state government intends to spare no effort in ensuring that governments fully comply
without compromising the smooth functioning of the nation banning system. He observed also, that without the development of small scales in Nigeria, the nation’s quest for industrialization must address the basic issues of creating linkages without the economy to begin to produce real input to our government council activities. Priority attention must therefore be given to these local governments for which domestic inputs could easily be produced. This will bring about agro allied local government like food processing and other by-products.
The objectives should be to maximize the value added in their processing and local government council as final goods immediately inputs.
Nzewi and Oze (1985:56) observed that empirical evidence indicates that strong producer incentives to small scales industrialists are necessary not also only meet the food requirement but also to provide growing input supplies and demand as a foundation for sustained industrial growth.
The present economic constraint may well turn out to be a blessing in disguise to our industrialization effect particularly for dynamic local government. For instance, the market determines exchange rate through seeing with its result id nigh cost of imported inputs may
as an impetus for industrialists to intensify their search for local substitutes.
EKEANYONG AND Nyong (1992) observed that small scales enterprises are regarded as an organic part of a viable structure for the attainment meaningful economy development in developing economy like Nigeria.
They are significantly more cost effective in bringing about development than large enterprises because of the perceived linkage and multiple effects which small scale enterprises have no the performance of the economy and economic growth in general.
Osayameh (1989) observes that the strength that make small scales enterprises more amendable for assistance areas as follows:
– Personal commitment of the proprietor whose Life saving usually form the start up capital
– Low initial capital out lay requirement
– Ease of entry and exit and prevalence of just Minimal legal constraints.
Amenability to business advisory services because of their small size which makes them more responsive to improvement suggestion less Olashore (1987) observes that the four main sources of enterprises financing open to small scales industry in Nigeria are:
