What are the causes of poor writing skills among Nigerian student?

Poor writing skills among Nigerian students can be attributed to several factors, including inadequate foundation in basic literacy due to subpar primary education, limited access to quality learning resources, and a lack of emphasis on writing in the curriculum. Additionally, students often face pressure to prioritize rote memorization over critical thinking and creative expression. Furthermore, the influence of digital communication, such as texting and social media, can lead to informal writing habits that undermine formal writing skills.
