ABSTRACT
This research is geared towards assessing the role of National Population Commission in economic development as well as to investigate the effect of population growth on Nigeria’s development. Specifically, it examined the indices of economic development in Nigeria, interrogated the relationship between population growth and economic development as well as investigated the role of NPC in promoting economic development in Nigeria. The theoretical framework that is used in the course of this study is the Endogenous Growth Theory and the Malthusian Theory. The study adopted the primary and secondary method of data collection which was used to test the following research hypothesis: There are no identifiable indices of economic development in Nigeria. There is no significant relationship between population growth and economic development in Nigeria. After a careful investigation into the study, recommendations were therefore made based on the results obtained. Some of the recommendations include the need for an undiluted conservative ideology where population increase is seen by many especially in Nigeria as the key to control of political power and resources should be thrown away and a more efficient and functional idea adopted. Also, there is need for the introduction of legislation by the law makers to monitor and control fertility rate in the country with an increased education and awareness as to population dynamics.
