Abstract
This paper profiles the Nigeria philosophy and goals of education on gender issues. It relies entirely on secondary data and describes the educational situation in the Nigeria philosophy and goals of education on gender issues bringing out the objectives and strategies that the Nigerian government has embarked upon to provide access and quality education for children. The data shows that the educational prospects are dismal in Nigeria. The paper also observes that the National Policy on education in Nigeria has also overlooked the issue of girl-child education to a large extent. The effect of the policy statement on women is negative as man is the main focus. The paper adopts the feminism theory, using the qualitative design method of analysis to describe/appraise Nigeria philosophy and goals of education as they bother on gender issues. The paper concludes that the National Policy on education should be gender neutral to avoid the negative effect on the girl-child education in Nigeria.
