This study was to investigate the nature and extent of gender equality on women in Rivers State, Nigeria. Its objectives were to identify and investigate the nature and extent of gender equality in Rivers State in Nigeria; to identify the causes and effects of gender equality in Rivers State; to analyze the legal and policy framework against gender equality; and to establish the findings, recommendations and conclusions on gender equality in Nigeria. Over the last two decades, scholars have investigated the two-way relationship between gender equality on one hand, and economic development and growth on the other. Research findings in this area offers new ways to address the economic stagnation and crisis developing countries have experienced over the last two decades, with particular reference to Nigeria.

This paper contributes to that literature, exploring the channels by which gender equality affects, and in important ways, constrains economic development and growth mostly in Nigeria. Using cross-country and panel regressions, this paper investigates to what extent gender equality in education and employment may reduce growth and development. The paper finds a considerable
impact of gender equality on economic growth which is robust to changes in specifications and controls for potential endogeneities.
