Education Gap in Nigeria's Labor Force
A recent report from the National Bureau of Statistics highlights a concerning gap in educational attainment among Nigeria's labor force ¹. The report shows that a staggering 86% of 88.9 million Nigerians in the labor force lack post-secondary education, with only 12.3 million people (14%) having received post-secondary education. This significant divide in education levels poses substantial challenges for Nigeria's competitiveness on the global stage and hinders economic growth and development.
