The Nigerian primary education sector has through the years been plagued by a number of phenomena amongst which are child labour and child abuse. The Almajiri system in another light has not always been considered a problem to the primary education system not until recent studies and developments proved contrary.
As a preliminary remark, one may be tempted to point out the quasi insignificant contribution of Nigeria’s gaming industry to the gross domestic product (GDP) of the largest economy in Africa. Yet this imposing margin could not have been created if not for Nigeria’s overreliance on its petroleum exports which has over the years formed the bedrock of its economy. Hence, against other constituent sectors of Nigeria’s economy, the gaming industry stands heads up and also promises to be a big contributor to Nigeria’s economy in the near future. However, a whole lot of factors mitigate its development and threaten its prospects, chief amongst them being its regulatory frameworks which has over the years remained verycomplex. This article attempts an exposition of the prospects and challenges of the Nigerian gaming industry against its complex regulatory frameworks with a view to determining the way forward.
