Good evening fellow nairalanders, compliments of the season.
I am an undergraduate(final year) in a federal university in Nigeria with plans to further my education(Masters) overseas. I have also been on the lookout for undergraduate scholarship programs for my younger sister. From what I have seen so far, most schools in the USA, UK and say North America list the IELTS as a requirement for application.
My question is this; Since English language is the official language for administration and Teaching across Nigeria, do we really need to take the IELTS test??

Thanks in anticipation of your responses.

Mods, FP please.

I used to ask this same question until I started assisting my father to mark undergraduate examination answer scripts.
