Abstract

This study explored women education to fertility in the Ihugh (rural) and Makurdi (urban) settings in Benue State. The purpose of the study was to test whether women with substantial schooling do have lower fertility than those without schooling. The study revealed that there is fertility differential in rural and urban settings, and that schooling is an index of the differentials. The study presents its findings and puts forward some recommendations that can help the government to address the issue of women education, especially the girl-child education.
