AB  - This study noted and  reports on the unacceptable level and the wide gender gap participation in the informal sector of the Nigerian economy generally as against the global trends and presents primary and secondary sources of data to show the present status and the future trend in the informal sector  in  Ekiti state of Nigeria. It thereby argued for  a wider gender participation spread if the expected growth and development in the state would be achieved. It also suggested some the expected roles that the government, counselors and educational managers may have to play in  reorientating the youths towards the offerings of the  informal sector especially in Ekiti state that is rural and agriculturally based.
