Abstract: 
Industrialization is the key for country’s economic development and growth. In African, most of their government refused to fully sponsor or fund MSE’s and industrialization ideologies. Their infrastructural development and economic policies are of very minimal for strong industrial development. Nigeria faces such situation and the government has refused and neglects the industrialization sectors, yet they want to be a developed country. The solution to industrialization is for the Nigerian government is to reform their economic policies, industrial policies, Develop infrastructures, promote MSEs, research and development (R and D). There is also a very significant need for the Nongovernment organizations to aid the Nation to industrialize and promote the manufacturing systems.
