Abstract
This study investigated the opinions of the stakeholders (students, PTAs,
Principals, Zonal education officers and the members of the NGOs on the
impact the later have made on the development of women education in the
state. A structured questionnaire was designed by the researcher, was
validated by professionals and administered to 766 respondents selected
from the schools and Zonal offices of the respective Education Areas of the
state through a stratified random sampling procedure. Variables
investigated in relation to the impact of the NGOs activities were their role,
level of coverage, guidelines for their activities, their level of provision of
instructional materials for the institutions within the state, strategies used
and the problems they faced in their service delivery for the development of
women education in the state. Data collected were analyzed using
frequencies and percentages for the demographic variables while, the two
sample t-test and analysis of variance were used in the test of the
hypotheses. 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. However the assistance provided by NGOS was not considered
adequate. No significant difference was observed in the opinions of the
respondents of the different sexes on the variables. Significant difference of
opinions was observed on the guidelines, provision of instructional
materials, strategies and the problems they faced in their activities by
respondents of different categories on the activities of the NGOs. 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.
