Abstract
This exploratory study examined 250 stakeholders across Nigeria's six geopolitical zones regarding the implementation of sexuality education. Findings revealed that stakeholder role significantly predicted knowledge and attitudes, whilst urban-rural differences were negligible. Health professionals demonstrated the highest competence; religious leaders showed selective support. Results inform culturally responsive curriculum development.
