The rate of illiteracy in this country is still high. According to the UNESCO’s information in its last record of 2010, we still have over 53 per cent who are still illiterate in Nigeria. The answer to that question is straightforward: we don’t have enough adult educators in this country. To have enough Adult Educators, it means at every local government, you must have between five and 10 Adult Educators in the various ministries or secretariats. The Adult Educators in this country have not been able to permeate all nooks and crannies of Nigeria, and that is why the level of illiteracy is still there.
