Abstract: The role of education in engendering and facilitating country’s socio-economic, political and cultural development can never be over-emphasized, most especially in a situation where the education is given due consideration and proper management. This paper argued that Nigeria’s education has fallen below all standards, these falling standards from primary to tertiary institution remain a major problem in Nigeria’s education, the quality of the products of various institutions leaves much to be desired, and graduates of Nigerian tertiary institutions are unemployable for their deficiencies. In fact, the pathetic state of education in the country epitomizes the intensity of decay and degradation as well as illustrates the endemic hopelessness, despair and uncertainty under which Nigerians live, and part of its contributing factor is lack of proper management. However, the paper access Nigeria’s education and the extent at which lack of proper management has affected quality assurance in the education sector. The paper recommended among others: that an adoptive restructuring style and patterns of educational management should be developed to meet the new demands. There is also the need to create hospitable quality culture amongst members of the institution. The paper is divided into six part, the first part contained the introductory part, the second part is concerned with definition of concepts, while the third part examined the Nigeria’s education in historical perspective, the forth section assessed the education’s management tools for quality assurance. The fifth section builds a congruency between a well managed education and national development and sixth is the conclusion and recommendations.
