The monoculture economic nature of Nigerian economy a short falls in foreign exchange generation, when the global oil glut reduce the unit cost of barrel of oil to as low as nine dollars ($9.0).

The thesis as well seeks to know whether a continuation and execution of the programme or out right refection based on its findings.
