Recently, the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) drew the attention of Nigeria’s leaders to the sorry state of the nation’s education sector.

On the occasion of the International Day of Education, the depressing state of education was highlighted especially the issue of out-of-school children who now have an estimated number of 10.5nillion and sadly still, even those lucky to be in school are simply there without learning anything that can translate into good prospects for their future. Such observation by the world’s renowned body calls for a serious concern and could not have come at a better time than now.

Though this was a step forward if compared with that of 2021 which had 5.7 allocation, yet all these paltry sums are a far cry from the real funds needed to put education on a strong footing. The call by UNICEF once again exposes all the grand propaganda aimed hiding the true state of things.
