dc.description.abstractThis paper focuses on gender inequalities and access to education, A 3 - section, 10 item questionnaire was used to elicit information from the respondents comprising of literate and illiterate individuals in the society. Section A comprises of respondents bio - data, section B contains 10 items and C provides space for the respondents's opinion that may not have been listed in section B. The responses were collated and the common opinion are as summarised below: 1. Girl children will finally find themselves in their husbands' houses so there is no need placing them on a strong footing education. 2. Girl children are not always interested in science and technological based courses which are now the order of the day. 3. Girl children have phobia for scientific enquiry and discovery. It is therefore suggested that girl - children have to be encouraged to take up challenges with their male counterparts in order to be relevant to the contemporary society. Illiterate parents should be educated and literates be encouraged to allow their girl - children good access to education. Government should provide free and compulsory education for girls up to university levelen_US
