Photos: Only three out of these children in Kebbi State go to school

Aisha Augie-Kuta, a Nigerian photographer and SSA New Media to Kebbi State Governor posted the photos, revealing that only three out of the children pictured here attend school. "The future! Only 3 of them go to school, we must work together to uplift the girl child. They create brooms on farms." she wrote.

A recent report by UNICEF said that about 10 million children are currently out of school in Northern Nigeria. Most of these out-of-school children are girls residing in rural areas. Unifef officer in Katsina State, Shehu Mohammed, identified poverty and socio-cultural and economic environment as reason for poor enrolment of children in schools.

    1. Sometimes it is not about the fund. North had serious socioeconomic, cultural and religious issues. You can fund but do they have the will power? Because so many are out of school they see it as normal not to go to school. A lot of work needs to be done.
