“Nigeria’s educational system is in assorted crises of infrastructural decay, neglect, waste of resources and sordid conditions of service. The country has over 10 million out-of-school children. That’s the highest in the world. Another 27 million children in school are performing very poorly. Millions of Nigerians are half-educated, and over 60 million – or 30% – are illiterate.” – Omowumi Olabode Steven Ekundayo
We are partnering with Education Partners Nigeria to combat these numbers and keep children enrolled in school.
Nigeria faces significant challenges in its education sector, with approximately 10.5 million children aged 5-14 years not attending school, despite primary education being officially free and compulsory.
