Though literacy rate has being growing fairly quickly in recent years, many problems account to the still low literacy rate in the developing nation.
The major factors accounting for it maybe political instability or lack of proper strategies to implement better educational growth.
The nations harsh geography and lack of logistical facilities is also a factor. Tough geography and rural areas also mean educated people do not want to pursue a career in such places. Support from government also has been low.
The main cause is of course, poverty. Poor families can’t afford to pay fees, and on top of that need young family members help to sustain their lives, hence education being a pipe dream unable to be fulfilled.
