Abstract | The purpose of this study is to determine how adult and non formal education is financed in Nigeria; and to examine areas or forms of and the problems of financing adult and non-formal education in Nigeria. Survey research was used in order to carry out the study. Three hundred and twenty five (325) respondents from government agencies, non-governmental organizations, and private individuals were sampled. Three research questions were generated from the literature review, questionnaire on financing adult and non formal education, and the responses elicited from respondents were numerically quantified, tabulated and analysed using the Likert Scale. The analysis showed that: governments were not funding adult and non-formal education adequately in Nigeria; funds for adult and non-formal education was obtained from other sources; adult literacy, distance, labour and prison education received fund from the government; there was a political will on the part of government to fund adult and non formal education; and some problems were confronting financing adult and non-formal education in Nigeria. Based on the findings, it is recommended that effort should be made by the policy makers to fund adult and non formal education for the benefit of the masses; and other sources of fund should be explored in order to realize the potency of adult and non-formal education.
