economic conditions have a vital role to play in people's experience and perceptions of a place. Such economic conditions affect nutrional levels, health, geographic mobility, educational attainment, and overall quality of life. Hence the more reason youth and able working class men and women despise their home land-Nigeria in search of a better life in other countries o the world. This is continually so because socioeconomic status affects almost all aspects of human life. In fact, the more reason for the incessant vandalism activities within the Nigerian state. This is why change is required; the need for some drastic economic measures hence, the relevance of Vision 2020 at this point in the history of the Nigerian economy may just have been the stich in nine to save ten. The book "Vision 20-2020 and the Menace of Vandalism" therefore, is a policy guide and direction signaling material. It pictures this policy agenda called "Vision 20-2020" of President Umar Musa Yar'adua as a dream towards attaining the nation's golden age, which must not b aborted. It also tends to beckon the attention of the Nigerian government as well as her economic handlers who are saddled with strategic planning and responsibilities to see the country emerge as one of the 20 most economically viable nation among other countries of the world by year 2020 to the plaque called vandalism. While, it strives at the same time to crave the indulgence of the relevant arm of the government to the fact that failure to muster and empower the concern institution/parastatal towards bringing the activities of vandals into check within the Nigerian state, untold limitations and hindrances may hijack the way to this fulfillment. It is of important therefore that this vision of our golden age as a people is not left to be choked in the fume of vandalism which has since rent the economic life of the country, especially more, considering the capacity of the oil sector in the sustainability of the socio-political and economy of the state.
