GOAL 2: ACHIEVE UNIVERSAL PRIMARY EDUCATION Target 2A: Ensure that, by 2015, children everywhere, boys and girls alike, will be able to complete a full course of primary schooling. Indicator 2.1: Net enrolment in primary education. In 2014, The states with very high attendance ratios included Anambra (94%), Delta (92.80), Imo (90.7), Lagos (92), Ondo (92.4), Osun (91.6), Edo (91.0), Ekiti (93.6) and FTC (94.1) while the least were Bauchi (29.9), Sokoto (24.80), Yobe (23.7), Zamfara (37.80). At the national level, the net attendance ratio was 61% in 2008 and it increased to 71% in 2012. In 2014, there was a shortfall of 2.3% and the net attendance for 2014 thus dropped to 68.7%. When classified by sectors, net attendance in the urban (84.3%) was much higher than in the rural areas (62.2%). Across the geopolitical zones, it was very encouraging in the South East (90.5%), South South (88.1%), South West (87%) and North Central (80.2%). But in the North West (50.5%) and particularly North East (42.5%) net attendance was not impressive. Although 100% attendance is expected, the result shows that Nigeria is on track. Indicator 2.2: Primay Six Completion Rate Nationally completion rate according to fig. 2.2 in 2004 was 82%. It increased to 87.7% in 2012 and dropped to 74.0 in 2014. Within the 2014, the completion rate was higher in the urban (84.4%) when compared with the rural (69.7). In the zones, completion rate was highest in South East (98.7%) zone, followed by South West (94.1%). Primary six completion rate was poorest in the North East (49.5%) zone. Nigeria is also on track. Indicator 2.3: Literacy rate of 15 – 24 years, women The literacy rate of youth women between 2004 and 2014 at the national level increased from 60.4% in 2004 to 80% in 2008. In 2012, it declined to 66%. Although it slightly appreciated in 2014 (66.7%), but that is insignificant. At the state level, literacy of youth women aged 15 – 24 was very encouraging in states like Rivers (98%), Enugu (97%), Imo (95%), Akwa Ibom (95%), Delta (94.1%), Anambra (93%), Ekiti (92.7%), Abia (91.3%). Conversely, literacy rate among woman of age 15 – 24 was poor in Sokoto (10.7%), Bauchi (13%), Yobe (16%) etc. Sectorally, the survey showed that there were more literate youth women (85.3%) in the urban as against the 57.8% recorded in the rural areas. In the zones the literate youth women in the South East (93.5%) were much higher than the rest of the zones. North East (33.0%) and North West (35%) had the lowest percentage of literate youth women in 2014. https://www.nairaland.com/2287060/yorubas-truly-most-educated-nigeria/1#33299342 7 Likes |

at least the northern states is a settled issue. they don't want to read and PMB is definitely not interested in pursuing any educational policy to carry national education forward. 95%-5% tag stuff |

scholes0:Of course, the north is responsible for the 60% figure. If you remove the north, I will put the figure at 70% - 80%. BTW, as it pertains to the definition of literacy, we are all aware that there is no definite definition. Not even the popular one that defines literacy as being able to read suffices. Since, we are basing this on education then I can we can define it as anyone who has finished a secondary education. |

Adelaide2: Do you know the difference between total literacy and Youth literacy at all? This is the actual raw data, the report from BBC which you are quoting is based upon (Demography and heath survey 2013) Educational attainment (Male) Educational Attainment (Female) The report shows two things: 1: The SS was the most Educated Zone of the country, on Average. 2: The SW pursues their educational careers to the highest levels, for both Males and Females. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

[quote author=scholes0 post=37092432] There are several levels of highest level. JAMB data shows Igbos leading by far in the first of the highest levels (AKA Bachelor/HND). But there is no data for MSc and PhD levels. Stop claiming crap. Most of the students you see in Nigerian universities in the SE, SW, SS and N are Igbos. 7 Likes 1 Share |

scholes0: [b]ACHIEVE UNIVERSAL PRIMARY EDUCATION Civilization and Development are intertwined. Both of them leverage very much on education. Education is a weapon for liberation from ignorance and diseases. Hence, it cannot be isolated from any development agenda as it is the pivot upon which several other programs rotate. Although the emphasis is on achieving primary education, but it has to be realized that to sustain progress towards other goals such as full employment, poverty reduction, health related programs, etc, attention should be extended beyond primary education. Target 2A: Ensure that, by 2015, children everywhere, boys and girls alike, will be able to complete a full course of primary schooling. Indicator 2.1: Net enrolment in primary education. At the inception of the MDGs, countries were advised to domesticate the indicators to suit their experience. Thus, each country had the privilege of identifying the indicators whose content and estimation procedure were either not applicable to them or completely out of context. In Nigeria, the computation of the primary school net enrolment ratio has faced some challenges because it involves a complete census of both private and public primary schools. Consequent upon this, the net attendance ratio estimated from household survey is adopted as a proxy in this report. In 2014, fig. 2.1 below shows the net attendance ratio according to their distribution by state. The states with very high attendance ratios included. Anambra (94%), Delta (92., Imo (90.7), Lagos (92), Ondo (92.4), Osun (91.6), Edo (91.0), Ekiti (93.6) and FTC (94.1) while the least were Bauchi (29.9), Sokoto (24., Yobe (23.7), Zamfara (37.. At the national level, the net attendance ratio was 61% in 2008 and it increased to 71% in 2012. In 2014, there was a shortfall of 2.3% and the net attendance for 2014 thus dropped to 68.7%. When classified by sectors, net attendance in the urban (84.3%) was much higher than in the rural areas (62.2%). Across the geopolitical zones, it was very encouraging in the South East (90.5%), South South (88.1%), South West (87%) and North Central (80.2%). But in the North West (50.5%) and particularly North East (42.5%) net attendance was not impressive. Although one hundred per cent enrolment and attendance are expected of children within this cohort, the achievement within the sub regions shows that Nigeria is on track of meeting the target. Completion rate is very important in Primary School education as it marks the beginning of transition to secondary school. Children often enroll without attending due to one challenge or the other. Those of them who eventually commence attending may withdraw or drop out without completing. This underpins the education indicator defined as ‘Proportion of pupils starting grade one and reaching final grade’. Final grade in this context is the completion grade. Nationally completion rate according to fig. 2.2 in 2004 was 82%. It increased to 87.7% in 2012 and dropped to 74.0 in 2014. Within the 2014, the completion rate was higher in the urban (84.4%) when compared with the rural (69.7). In the zones, completion rate was highest in South East (98.7%) zone, followed by South West (94.1%). Primary six completion rate was poorest in the North East (49.5%) zone.
