Data analysis and statistics teaching at the University of Lagos

While I was studying at the University of Lagos, my supervisor asked me to teach final-year and postgraduate students how to analyse the data for their research. That meant using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS), a statistics program, and doing the calculations their projects needed.
