Abstract
The desire for mass literacy, suggest the existence of illiteracy in (he
society. Once a society becomes conscious of it's educational gap, it
usually tries to fill this gap in the shortest possible time and always
in the most inexpensive way(s). The paper suggests short: and
inexpensive ways of fighting illiteracy in Nigeria. Nigeria's contacts
with the outside world and the effects of rapid social changes upon
her over the years seem to have helped to make her realize her
education gap. The paper, further, examines what Nigeria is
currently doing having realized her educational shortfalls, and
suggests ways of bridging the educational gap.
