ABSTRACT
This study is an Assessment of CRBC’s Educational Broadcasting in Nigeria: A Study of Calabar South Local Government Area. The study adopted three research techniques, survey design, purposeful sampling procedure and simple percentage to analyze the data. It was found out that CRBC’s educational broadcasting programmes satisfied the educational yearning and aspiration of 66.5% respondents, the programme were beneficial to its audience and the content was relevant to educational areas of 65.5% of respondents. However, the study revealed some challenges such as the absence of electricity to enable viewers and listeners to power their radio and television sets to be able to access the programmes when aired. The researcher recommended the training of staff to be more creative in the programme production, a specific time or peak hour to air the programme and also government formulation and implementation of polices to enhance educational broadcasting in developing countries.
