The 2015 Global Monitoring Report
(GMR) has revealed that Nigeria has
the highest number of out-of-
school children in the world and
the figure is still increasing since
2000.
The report with the theme
“Education for All 2000-2015:
Achievements and Challenges”,
stated that Nigeria lacks progress
in almost every EFA goal as
corruption, conflict and lack of
investment have resulted in Nigeria
having one of the worst
educational systems in the world.
The report added that the political
leadership has been identified as
corrupt, losing $21million of
education funding over two years.
It added, “Despite Nigeria’s GNP
per capita growing substantially
between 1999 and 2012,
investment in education remains
low.”
It said that as a result, the most
basic of resources for education
are limited, adding that additional
220,000 primary school teachers,
representing 15% of the global
total, are needed.
It further revealed that the gap
between the poor and the average
in Nigeria has increased with the
number of children from the
poorest households going to
primary school falling from 35% to
25% in 2013.
The report added that no country
in sub-Saharan Africa has achieved
the global Education for All (EFA)
goals, maintaining that “an extra
$22billion a year is needed.
