In order words, there is a veritable link between entrepreneurship development and economic development. Furthermore, the Pearson Correlation result shows there is a significant relationship between SMEs and economic development in Nigeria. The study recommend Policy makers should recognize the essence of SME to economic development. Entrepreneurship deserves equal emphasis as is being placed on science and technology; it is the entrepreneur that translates the innovation in science and technology into wealth.
