From the analysis of the data and test of the hypotheses, it was observed that, NGOs were assisting on the development of women education in the state.

Based on these findings, the researcher recommended among others: That, the state government should give more priority to the provision of instructional materials for effective teaching and learning in the state educational institutions. That, efforts should be made to provide facilities like classrooms that, can encourage and facilitate female education in the state. That, the state should encourage the NGOs in their service delivery for the development of women education in the state. That, effort at mobilizing women educational development should be expanded by the state government through scholarship awards and other incentives coupled with consistent maintenance of the available facilities in the schools.
