description While abundant literature focuses more on role of National Assembly in SDGs, this study examines people’s perceptions on the role of National Assembly in domesticating Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Nigeria from 2015 – 2023. The study adopted a descriptive survey research design in which data were collected through a questionnaire administered to 200 respondents, out of which, 193 were collected from the respondents. Data collected was subjected to percentage analysis, means and standard deviation. According to the findings there are many challenges associated with the implementation of Sustainable Development Goals in Nigeria, which includes: lack of political will is a significant challenge in the implementation of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), inadequate financial resources pose a challenge to achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), insufficient public awareness and engagement hindering the progress of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Equally, cconflicts and instability in various regions globally impede the implementation of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Hence, the study concludes that these challenges highlighted the multifaceted nature of the obstacles facing SDG achievement in the country and emphasize the need for comprehensive and coordinated efforts across sectors to overcome them. The study recommends that there is need to address conflicts and instability in various regions of Nigeria through prioritize efforts to promote peacebuilding, conflict resolution, and inclusive development to create an enabling environment for SDG implementation.
