Also, it \u0000was discovered that the total increase in nomads’ enrolments in nomadic \u0000schools in the country is not proportionate with the increase in government \u0000expenditure on nomadic education. The study attributed this low school \u0000attendance by the nomads to the problems of under-funding, dearth of \u0000teachers, constant migration of nomads, the involvement of the children \u0000of nomads in the productive system, corruption, among others. The study \u0000concluded that the present form of implementation of the nomadic \u0000education would make it difficult for it to be a panacea for achieving the \u0000M Gs in the country. ecommendations were made on how to improve \u0000on the nomadic education system in the country.","PeriodicalId":52427,"journal":{"name":"Nigerian Journal of Economic and Social Studies","volume":"2 1","pages":"147"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85279661","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
