Nigerian Women's Quest for Role Fulfillment |
| |
Abstract: | This article examines the nexus between Nigerian women's struggle for role fulfillment and adult education. The women in the study experienced staggering disparities between their illiteracy and their optimal role expectations. As middle-aged workers and mothers of large families, they undertook self-initiated study in adult evening classes. Through the modality of the Focus Group Discussion Method (FGD), the women revealed their role-related problems and the specific ways by which adult education had empowered them to be self-actualizing in their traditional roles. |
