dc.description.abstractPoverty, a global phenomenon that is dynamic, complex and multi-dimensional is currently one of the most serious problems in our contemporary Nigerian society and the world. In view of the above, efforts are being made at the levels of government, the organized private sector, international donor agencies and NGOs to alleviate poverty so that man can live a meaningful life. The paper adopts historical method for its findings. The paper finds out that despite various strategies employs by successive government and other agencies at eradicating unemployment and youth restiveness in Nigeria, the scourge seems unbolting as a result of lack of seriousness on the part of government, lack of reliable population figures as benchmark for planning and neglect among others. The problem of poverty and unemployment continues to rare its ugly head because the prescribed solutions have failed to find out the root causes of poverty. The paper therefore recommended conducting a reliable and acceptable population census, government transparency and elimination of tribalism and favouritism by our political and religious leaders among others for sustainable poverty alleviation in Nigeria.en_US
