This research determined to explore how to encourage self-reliance and develop abilities for digital entrepreneurship. Two null hypotheses and research questions were established to direct the study to meet the research’s objectives. A survey study strategy was chosen for this study. Out of the two thousand undergraduates (2000) in the population, a sum of one hundred eighty-seven (187) respondents were chosen for the sample. Simple random sampling was used to make the selection. The key tool was a study questionnaire titled "Building Skills for Digital Entrepreneurship and Motivating Self-Reliance," approved by two specialists from the University of Maiduguri's Computer Engineering and Computer Science departments. The researchers distributed the questionnaire. A statistical study using Pearson product-moment correlation was done to test the hypotheses. With 276 degrees of freedom and critical values, every hypothesis was meaningful. The University of Maiduguri found that the self-reliance drive substantially correlates with skills in Point of sale (POS) operation and recharge card business.
