Question 16 • Rulewicz 7 Geography Q2/Q3/Q4 (2025-2026)

What similar challenges do both South Africa and Nigeria face in the future?

Answer

Answer:

Responses may vary but should include some or all of the following information: Both countries have high poverty rates. In Nigeria, 57% live in poverty. Poverty rates in South Africa are also high, especially among non-whites. Both countries also face challenges providing enough schools and teachers for their children. In Nigeria, oil income has not benefited the general population, and the history of apartheid in South Africa restricted access to secondary education, especially among non-whites.
