The leather manufacturing industry is one of the most neglected industries of the Nigerian economy. Yet this potent industry contributes a lot to our daily living. It was said sometimes ago that Nigeria eats up her leather. Is it that bad?

…Well….I am currently undergoing a study on the impacts of technology on the informal leather manufacturing industry in Nigeria. This research attempts to answer the following questions:

1. What impact has the use of technological tools had on the work environment in the leather manufacturing industry?
2. Has the advent of technology increased the productivity of leather manufacturing firms in Nigeria?
3. Has technology in any way increased the profit of leather manufacturing firms in Nigeria?

I will update you more on this as I progress. It has been a bit challengiing though, as I have to dig dip into this critical issue; combined with my normal busy schedule.

Let me quickly get back to work. Thanks
