INTRODUCTION
1.1  Background of the Study
Education provides children with the knowledge andskills necessary to advance themselves and their nation economically. To this effect, there are some socio-economic factors and political factors that often affect the level of performance of children who undergo the educational system more especially in Nigeria setting.
