Educating the girlchild is important for her personal development as an individual, her family and community as a whole. "Forty per cent of Nigerian children aged 6-11 do not attend any primary school with the Northern region recording the lowest school attendance rate in the country, particularly for girls."- UNICEF Girls who are denied an education, tend to be married off early. Some of the negative consequences tend to be increased risks of morbidity and mortality for mothers and infants, illiteracy and poverty. Let us all join hands to contribute towards ensuring that our girls are educated. It can only be a win-win situation for all.
