SOCIETY
Under civil law, Nigeria recognizes civil unions.
In many northern states, the man can get how many wives he could sustain. The
problem is that the southern states are composed of mostly Christians and the Christian
religions don’t allow this practice.
Despite the criticism from the Christian religion
leaders, legally the Christians people can get polygamous unions.
ECONOMY
The Nigerian economy has overdependence on
the capital-intensive oil sector, in turn, greatly hampered by political
instability, corruption, and poor macroeconomic management, is currently
undergoing a substantial economic reform after the restoration of democracy in
1999. The agricultural sector in most subsistence could not keep up with rapid
population growth, and Nigeria, once a large net exporter of food, now imports
some of its food products
POLITIC

EDUCATION
There were fundamentally distinct
education systems in Nigeria in 1990: The indigenous system, Quranic schools,
and formal European-style education institutions.
Islamic education was part of religion
duty.
Muslim education was delivered informally
under the tutelage of mallams or ulama.
Western-style education came to Nigeria,
with the missionaries from Europe in the mid-nineteen century.
The teaching
of English language, which was the language of education beyond the primary
school, had reached so poor levels that teachers of university faculty don’t understand
the writings of his students.
