African Girls
This a short video clip of some African girls in Nigeria singing. There are some seven million children in Nigeria who don't go to school, the vast majority of them girls, particularly girls in poorer rural areas.
Its a social norm for girls in Nigeria to get married young, have families and help with the family income, and, as such, many girls are not encouraged to go to school, which inevitably means fewer females become teachers, which, in itself, discourages even more girls who prefer not to be taught by men.
Today there are new programs offering scholarships to girls in Nigeria to undertake teacher training to promote girl engagement in education.
There are also many charities you can contact to help children in Nigeria as well as child sponsor programs. Click here to review them.
