Nigeria's future prosperity relies on the knowledge and capabilities of its people. Every Nigerian child needs access to education that prepares them for the world. The country's youth population, with almost two-thirds under 30, presents an opportunity for growth, creativity, and productivity, according to This Day.
However, Nigeria faces an education crisis. The country has a significant number of out-of-school children, and a recent UNICEF report shows that pupils are not imbibing knowledge, merely going through the motions of learning. This Day describes this as a learning crisis, not just an access crisis.
The world is rapidly changing, with technology transforming work and knowledge becoming increasingly valuable. The outcome for Nigeria's youth bulge will determine whether it becomes a demographic dividend or catastrophe.
