BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Education, as defined by Fafunwa (2004), is an aggregate of all the process by means of which a person develops abilities, attitudes, and other forms of behaviour of positive values in the society in which he lives. Whenever we hear of word “Education, the first place our mind goes to, is the school. Most of the time, we tend to think of education in terms of what teachers and their student do in school. Indeed, education is a process that starts the very moment a person or child is born and ends whenever he finally dies. The process of education is which involves a number of activities and people including the teachers, the students, parents, the government and every citizen of the country. Teaching is a key factor in education and learning is another; the first teachers a child ever has are his parents, and the learning process starts as soon as he enters the world. Since the teaching-learning process starts with the child’s parent, the mother in particular matters a lot. For instance, if the mother of the child is an educated one with a good means of livelihood, that is, a good earning, one can be sure that the child will be well fed and taught a lot of things that another child from a less enlightened family is not likely to have.
