Abstract

Education the world over is recognized as the agent of change. Educationists and economists also agree that human beings are very important sources of the wealth of nations. That is to say that human capital has the capacity of creating more wealth if properly developed. In Nigeria, the education system turns out graduates who are unemployed, underemployed or unemployable. This means that the education system should embark on innovative curricular ways of tackling this ugly monster. One of such moves is the introduction of Entrepreneurship Skill Acquisition Programme(ESAP) in the curricula of our tertiary institutions. This paper agrees that a viable education system should entrench entrepreneurship education as one way of developing the potentials of the prospective graduates towards self-employment and wealth creation. The main purpose of this paper is to establish that any entrepreneurship acquisition programme will also include language skills to equip the entrepreneur for managing the business enterprise. It was recommended that language and communication skills should be entrenched into the entrepreneurship programs because this is essential for the successful management of any business enterprise.
