Social Infrastructure development is the basis of any society be primitive or modern and it is the foundation of good governance. Infrastructure is the medium, the tools and techniques of a project or programme or strategy that is use in building a viable nation and functional state. Even before the independent, social infrastructure is the unique feature that could be attributed towards nation's development. These infrastructures made us realized the amalgamation of 1914 as a way of bringing Nigerians together even though it was purely for the British economic gain. The civilian government as contributed in no small ways toward provision of social infrastructural development in Nigeria. The military era in Nigeria was for the most part of the economic boom succeeded in widening the gap in infrastructure demand and provision. Most infrastructures are now decayed and need repair or replacement. Demand for infrastructural development is higher and resources used in provision of infrastructure are limited. As well the challenges are numerous and include finance, technology for development and maintenance. Ethnic-interest agitation and lobbying are common things in democratic governance. A major reason that has been responsible for her socioeconomic stagnation is bad leadership and corruption which had mar development since 1960 and deter the purpose of nation building. Therefore, there is an urgent need for rapid improvement in the Nigeria infrastructure to avert impending dangers towards nation building. This paper therefore, examines the social infrastructure as a panacea to build a viable and united Nigeria.
