ABSTRACT
This study is on a strong impression of effective management of resources in solving the unemployment problem in Nigeria. This researcher wants to know the impact of effective management of resources in Igbo-Eze south local government area, how they have carried its operations to bring this phenomenon to its best minimum. In order to achieve this an empirical survey and library research were carried out. The source of data used includes both primary sources of data and secondary data. The primary source of data is the administration of questionnaires and oral interviews while the secondary source includes statistical tools used in testing hypothesis. The research reveals that the local government has not put the necessary machinery in place to tackle the managerial skill operation in the area. This factor has been a force militating against solving the unemployment problem. However, it was discovered also that the local government under study engages in various activities and schemes including the provision of pipe borne water, rural electrification projects to attract investors to harness the available natural resources to create employment for the people besides, lack of infrastructure has equally contributed to non-improvement of the unemployment situation.
