The focus of the study was to ascertain the interrelationship between budget deficit, inflation and economic growth in Nigeria. Various literatures were reviewed. The study period span from 1991 to 2022. Various econometric tests such as unit root test, cointegration test etc were employed. The study employed vector auto regression model and impulse response function and variance decomposition. The findings from the impulse response and variance decomposition analyses provide valuable insights into the interrelationships between fiscal deficits, inflation, and economic growth in Nigeria. While inflation is primarily driven by its own history, the influence of GDP and employment grows over time, suggesting that fiscal and monetary policies targeting both inflation and economic growth will be crucial for stabilizing the economy in the long run. Base on the findings of the study, the researcher recommend among others that given that inflation is largely self-driven in the short term, it is critical for policymakers to focus on controlling factors that can exacerbate inflationary pressures, such as excessive money supply growth or external shocks.

The way we build and use good housing impacts economic growth by influencing jobs, savings, investments, and how productive workers are. People have only recently started to widely accept this idea. Since 1945, experts on housing have had three different opinions about how housing affects economic growth. In the years right after World War II, most experts saw housing as a social cost and something that slowed down economic growth. A few argued that housing could be an important addition to specific development projects, especially in distant areas. Over time, housing has increasingly been seen as something that helps growth, not just because building houses is a major industry with a large ripple effect, but also because housing has social impacts that affect the economy in various ways. This history of how opinions have shifted makes us wonder why the change happened.

The place of women in economic and social life has undergone significant changes throughout history, especially women's entrepreneurship, especially from the Ottoman Empire to the present day, has been shaped with different dynamics. During the Ottoman period, women participated in economic life through trade, tradesmen organizations and foundation system, but had a limited field of entrepreneurship due to social norms (Öztürk, 2020). With the reforms made during the Republican period, women's participation in business life was encouraged and women's entrepreneurship gained an important momentum (Güven & Yıldız, 2018). In the process of globalization, micro-credit practices and state supports for women entrepreneurs came into play, and especially with the digitalization process, e-commerce and social media presented new opportunities in women's entrepreneurship (Kaya, 2021). However, female entrepreneurs still face cultural obstacles, difficulties access to financing and problems in the balance of work-family (Arslan, 2019). Strengthening policies and incentive mechanisms that support women's entrepreneurship in Turkey plays a critical role in economic development. In this study, the evolution of women entrepreneurship from the Ottoman Empire to the present day, the current situation of women's entrepreneurship in today's Turkey, the difficulties encountered and solutions are discussed.
