Abstract
Two of the most populous and economically varied countries in Africa, Nigeria and Kenya, continue to face significant obstacles to their development: educational inequality. The article examines the various facets of educational inequality in different nations, emphasizing the effects on the political and economic spheres. Differences in educational accessibility and quality between rural and urban regions, as well as between the north and the south, have contributed to social discontent, political disenfranchisement, and economic stagnation in Nigeria. In a similar vein, while there has been improvement in Kenya regarding educational access, notable inequalities still exist, especially in disadvantaged areas, which fuels political polarization and increases the economic divide. This article highlights effective solutions meant to solve these issues while examining the effects of unequal educational resource distribution on political polarization, economic development, and national stability. This study offers important insights into the larger consequences of educational disparity for sustainable development in sub-Saharan Africa by contrasting the educational systems of Nigeria and Kenya.
