 ABSTRACT

This research work investigated the effect of education and gender on political participation in Nigeria. A case study of Ilorin East Local Government Area. However, it tends to study how education and sex are positively or negatively affect people participation in Nigerian politics. The researcher will look critically at why some people participate in politics and why others are apathetic to political activities. The rate at which the educated and non-educated people involves in politics as well as the exclusive influence of gender (male and female) on people’ concern for politics will be adequately analysed and examined in detail.
