The inside perspectives', which this paper describes as enemies within’ are spiritualisation of business, godly financial spending, substituting business time for religious programme, problem of trust, bad character and unhealthy competition among entrepreneurs. They were discussed thoroughly and methods of conquering them were suggested as moral therapy for healing Nigerian entrepreneurship.enConquering ‘enemies within':a moral therapy for healing nigerian entrepreneurshipArticle
