It is believed that generally education in Nigeria has lost its salt. The standard seems to have fallen and continues to fall.

This study looked into the challenges being encountered by teachers and students in the course of teaching and learning of religious education in secondary schools in Onitsha urban. In doing this, survey method was adopted to get acquainted with the fact being investigated and data collected were analyzed using four Likert method of interpretation.
