38 of nigerians are illiterates

I think there may be a mistake in your statement. According to the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the literacy rate in Nigeria is around 60% (2019 estimates). This means that approximately 40% of the population, not 38, are illiterates.

It's important to note that literacy rates can vary depending on factors such as age, gender, and geographic location. However, 38 is not a realistic or accurate representation of the number of illiterates in Nigeria.

If you have any further information or context about the statement you're referring to, I'd be happy to help clarify or provide more accurate information.
