Studies revealed that:
40% Nigerian Adults never finish reading a fiction book from cover to cover after leaving school.
30 million Nigerians have graduated from secondary schools with poor reading skills, attributed to poor habit cultivated during their stay at school.
A turnover of 75% unemployable graduates, and 25% employable ones.
A good percentage of students no longer uphold studiousness or hard work as our school system is plagued with numerous social vices such as academic laziness resulting to examination malpractices, cultism, hooliganism and corruption.
Products of our educational institutions parade mind-blowing certificates and degrees, but are really half-baked and empty-headed.
There is system failure in service delivery in all facets of our national economy.
The mad rush to obtain paper qualification by most Nigerians without passing through academic rigour, thus heightening malpractices and indolence.
And, frequent conflicts, secret cults, sexual abuse, certificate forgery, and drug abuse plus other unvalued lifestyles constitute a fixed pointer to the decline in the positive value system in Nigeria.
According to UN’s report, Nigeria has the highest number of school drop-outs as Children. In addition, UIS records that about 258 million children and youth are out of school. 62 million of lower secondary school age, and 138 million of upper secondary age.
Guess what, 50% of the world population of out of school children are in NIGERIAN. We are changing the narratives!
Education must yield its original result of raising competent, productive, ethical and transformation-conscious human capital for Africa!
We believe reorientation of learners can fix these and reposition young people for invention, entrepreneurship, significance and global recognition.
Formal school system alone cannot produce holistic individuals into the society. Hence, Lead-out answered the call to be an education support institution.
