This paper explores the transformative potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in enhancing social studies education in Nigeria. Amidst challenges such as inadequate resources, large class sizes and a focus on rote memorization, AI offers innovative solutions to improve engagement, personalization and critical thinking among students. By leveraging AI-driven tools, educators can create adaptive learning experiences, provide real-time feedback and develop more dynamic lesson plans. This integration not only enhances student understanding of societal, cultural and historical contexts but also supports teachers in delivering more effective instruction. The paper also addresses the challenges of implementing AI in education, including access to technology, teacher training and ethical considerations. Ultimately, this study highlights how AI can revolutionize social studies education in Nigeria, fostering a more informed, culturally aware and critically thinking generation of students.
