Survey findings show the huge inflow of migrant remittances not only increases money in circulation but also positively improves households’ standard of living generally. International remittance flows have proven to be more stable than any other external financial flow (Foreign Direct Investment [FDI], Official Development Assistance [ODA] or other forms of external financing). Migrant remittance into Nigeria is impressively high; World Bank indicators show that Nigeria’s remittance stood at 5.4 billion US dollars (2006) and 10 billion US dollars (2010).Text1 digital file (11 p. : ill.)application/pdfenREMITTANCESPOVERTY ALLEVIATIONSTANDARD OF LIVINGNIGERIAECONOMIC GROWTHMONETARY TRANSFERSMIGRANT WORKERSSOUTH OF SAHARAIDRC-Related Report
