Abstract

The Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) which depicts an amalgamation of International Development Goals, whose target year for achieving stated objectives was set at 2015, serves as a platform for increased partnership and cooperation between the developed and developing countries. Through the efforts of global partnership, the MDGs seek to eradicate poverty and enhance human development in the best possible ways. Just like other developing countries, Nigeria which was an enthused signatory to the MDGs did not record an overall progress at the end of the MDGs in 2015. Some natural and made-made factors led to this setback. Nevertheless, this research paper seeks to identify the bottle necks in the achievement of these goals in Nigeria and profound possible solutions with good policy recommendation especially with the adoption of new sustainable development goals.
