Chapter One: Introduction

1.1 Background of the Study

Religious teachings have long had a significant influence on economic behavior, particularly in conservative regions of Nigeria where religious beliefs are tightly woven into daily life. In Bama Local Government Area (LGA) of Borno State, religious institutions play an essential role in shaping the attitudes of individuals towards entrepreneurship, wealth creation, and economic activities. Both Islam and Christianity, the major religions in the region, have specific teachings that promote self-reliance, hard work, and the ethical pursuit of wealth.

This study aims to evaluate how religious teachings in Bama influence entrepreneurial behavior and economic activities. By examining the ways in which religious institutions encourage or discourage entrepreneurship, the research will shed light on the broader role of religion in fostering local economic growth and poverty reduction. It will also explore the relationship between religious principles and the development of entrepreneurial mindsets among local residents.

1.2 Statement of the Problem

While religious teachings have a profound influence on community values and individual behaviors, the specific impact of these teachings on entrepreneurship in Bama is not well-documented. In a region facing economic challenges, it is important to understand how religious perspectives either facilitate or hinder entrepreneurial activity. This study will address this gap by exploring the relationship between religious teachings and entrepreneurial development in Bama.

  2. Religious leaders actively encourage or discourage entrepreneurial activity based on religious principles.

  3. Religious teachings either facilitate or hinder the development of an entrepreneurial culture in Bama.

1.6 Significance of the Study

This study will provide insights into the role of religion in entrepreneurship in Bama and other similar communities. The findings will be useful for religious leaders, policymakers, and development practitioners seeking to harness the positive influence of religious teachings to promote entrepreneurship and local economic growth.

1.7 Scope and Limitations of the Study

The study will focus on the impact of religious teachings on entrepreneurship in Bama LGA, Borno State. Limitations include the challenge of assessing the influence of religious teachings, as it may be difficult to quantify the effects on entrepreneurial attitudes and behaviors.
