This study raised two pertinent research questions: Has the use of POS filled in as a source of income for entrepreneurs? How do young people in Abia State see the government's contribution to the growth of entrepreneurship in the state? The study was anchored on economic survival theory. The study discovered a significant correlation between young people's perceptions of the role of the government in entrepreneurship development and their entrepreneurial intentions. It was also discovered that entrepreneurial creativity has a positive impact on economic activities, with a correlation of about 84% between the use of POS and the source of income for small business startups. According to the study, local government chairmen should work with the Abia State government to support risk-taking by entrepreneurs by offering soft loans and counterpart finance assistance. This will help those with entrepreneurial intentions grow their businesses and create more jobs for the state and local governments.
