Combating illiteracy in Nigeria

In the words of former United States of
America President, Bill Clinton, during the
celebration of International Literacy Day in
1994, “literacy is not a luxury; it is a right and
a responsibility. If our world is to meet the
challenges of the twenty-first century we must
harness the energy and creativity of all our
citizens.” Available data indicates that there
are now close to four billion literate people in
the world. In as much as this represents a
positive stride, literacy for all is still a yet to
be accomplished objective. A recent UNESCO
statistics shows that 774 million adults still
cannot read or write – two-thirds of them (493
million) are women. Among youth, 123 million
are illiterate of which 76 million are female.
In Nigeria, in spite of efforts by all tiers of
governments in address rising illiteracy level,
there has not been a progressive increase in
the literary level, especially among the adults.
According to the National Bureau of Statistics,
adult illiteracy rate in Nigeria stands at 56.9
per cent. Expectedly, the states mostly
affected by the Boko Haram insurgents in the
northern part of the country recorded the
lowest literacy level in the country.
A recent USAID study also indicates that an
estimated 10 million Nigerian children are not
registered in school. A disclosure by a former
Minister of State for Education, Chief Nyesom
Wike, equally indicates that the number of
adults who cannot read and write in the
country is estimated at 60 million, which is
about 38 per cent of the country’s population
estimated at 170 million. The revelation was
made by Wike at the flagging off of the 2014
International Literacy Day.
At the 2013 edition of same event it was
disclosed that the number of adult illiterates
in the country increased from 25 million in
1997 to 35 million in 2013. The declining
fortune of literacy ratio among Nigerian
children is, indeed, an embarrassment to the
nation as we currently have over 10.5 million
children out of school. The current Education
for All, EFA, Global Monitoring report ranks
Nigeria as one of the countries with the
highest level of illiteracy. The EFA report on
Nigeria affirmed that the number of illiterate
adults has increased by 10 million over the
past two decades, to reach 35 million.
The current literacy trend in Nigeria, if not
speedily halted, could obstruct the attainment
of the Millennium Development Goals. As it
has been earlier asserted, literacy is vital o
the achievement of every growth index. The
way things stand, the objective of meeting the
national mark of reducing illiteracy by 50 per
cent by 2015 seems largely unattainable. One
of the most compelling way to tackle the
myriad of challenges confronting us as a
nation is to urgently attend to the declining
literacy position in the country. To
successfully confront poverty, disease,
religious fanaticism, political chaos, ethnic
bigotry, gender discrimination, economic
depression among others, efforts must be
made by all to enhance the literary level in the
country.
The general perceptive of literacy is ability to
read and write. But, literacy has bigger
dimensions than mere ability to read and
write. According to former United Nations
Secretary General, Dr. Kofi Anan, “Literacy is a
bridge from misery to hope. It is a basic tool
for daily life in modern society. It is a wall
against poverty, and a building block of
development. Literacy is a vehicle for the
promotion of cultural and national identity”.
The implication of this is that literacy is
central to basic education for all, and crucial
for dropping child mortality, achieving gender
equality and ensuring sustainable
development, peace and democracy in the
society. For individuals, families, and societies
alike, it is an instrument of empowerment to
improve one’s health, one’s income, and one’s
relationships.
Without a doubt, literacy opens up a window
of opportunities to everyone, and is essential
to individual and societal development. For a
society to attain sustainable development,
social development and environmental
integration, literacy is one of the required key
elements. The occasion of the 2015
International Literacy Day is, therefore, quite
timely as it offers another golden chance for
all stakeholders to reflect on the country’s
literacy state and make appropriate concerted
efforts that could ensure the realisation of the
national mass literacy project.
