COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF SCIENTIFIC LITERACY OF PRIVATE AND PUBLIC SCHOOL STUDENTS AT UPPER BASIC LEVEL OF EDUCATION IN KATSINA-ALA LGA

Abel Idoko Onoja PhD & Michael Msugh Toryem

Nigeria is the most populated country in Africa with over 140 million people. The teeming population of Nigeria needs to be educated for the country to move forward socially, economically, scientifically and technologically. This implies that the country needs an education programme that will be readily available and responsive to meet the needs of her citizens. In this regard, Onoja (2015) posits that human development history has shown that sustainable development and self sustaining progress of any nation generally follow the development and application of science and technology education that is responsive to the needs and endowment of the country. This is the more reason why many nations of the World (developed and developing) are investing in the development of science and technology education with a view to attaining high level of self sufficiency and sustainable development in many facets of life.
