INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background Of Study
Contemporary Christian religion is largely recognized as one of the most important subjects in contemporary Nigeria. It is obvious that studying Christian religion is critical for the moral development of pupils in the majority of Nigerian society. According to Onyeka (2013), the subject was brought into the Nigerian educational system by European Missionaries as a way of converting Nigerians to the white man's religion (Christianity).
Additionally, the introduction of CRS as an arts subject coincided with the introduction of other categories, including as scientific and technology subjects, when the federal government of Nigeria took control of the majority of Nigeria's schools (Omeke, 2013).
