As the world prepares to celebrate the International Education Day tomorrow, the 24th of January, Nigeria has an array of challenges facing its education

sector. The Minister of State, Education, Chukwuemeka Nwajiuba, recently revealed that Nigeria has the highest number of out-of-school children in sub-Sahara Africa. There are about 10,193,918 million out-of-school children in spite of the free and mandatory primary education offered in the country.

The education sector still struggles against not only infrastructural decay – structures constructed many years ago that have not been renovated, or worse, buildings destroyed by kidnappers and bandits but also high illiteracy levels and deficits among others.
