  1. Aisha was located, she was found frying “Awara” at Tal’udu Roundabout along Kabuga Road, Kano.

 

  1. The search team met and had a chat with Aisha and her elder brother.

 

  1. She is a JSS III student of a public school who attends her classes with passion.

 

  1. She fries and sells “Awara” to make ends meet: use the little profit she earns to help her struggling parents and save enough to sponsor her education.

 

  1. She lacks proficiency in the English Language hence resorts to reading Hausa books while she fries “Awara”. Nonetheless, she’s willing to learn English and read books collections to get energized as she searches for enlightenment.

 

  1. Her parents are committed to supporting her academic pursuits.

 

I and Bashir Almusawi will visit Aisha’s family in the coming days to assess her schooling needs, develop a plan and budget for her education as well as draw a roadmap to support the girl to actualize her dream of attaining scholarship.

We will determine the need for either public fundraising or other channels to finance her education. You shall be duly informed on the next steps after our visit.

 

 

Girls in Kano are known to have excelled in Frying ” Awara” in the evening to earn a living and support their parents, but what draws people’s attention was Aisha’s quest for education as she combines the two, reading and performing her occupation.

 

In northern Nigeria is the region where girl child education is facing a setback especially in the rural areas.

Published

By Salisu Baso

As the crisis erupted within Kano’s ruling party NNPP, with some members calling for the governor to stand independently, the Kano State House of Assembly has denied knowledge of any of its members being involved in the rifts.

The Majority Leader of the House, Hon. Lawan Hussain, representing Dala Constituency, revealed this to newsmen in an interview with journalists over the publication of an online newspaper, Daily Nigeria, stating that some members of the NNPP in the House have joined the factional crisis.

He described the news as a fabricated and mischievous story from unpatriotic elements planning to destroy the peace reigning within the party. He said that as far as the members of the House are concerned, there are no conflicts between the governor and the leader of the Kwankwasiyya Movement, Senator Engr. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso.

The Majority Leader therefore assured the party parliament members of their solid support for the leader of the Kwankwasiyya and state governor, Engr. Abba Kabir Yusuf, adding that the governor considers Senator Kwankwaso his mentor.

On the issue of some party members calling for the governor to be independent (Tsaya da Kafar Ka), Hon. Dala said the governor is operating independently without interference from any person. He therefore accused some opposition politicians from the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, of sponsoring unpatriotic people to ignite a crisis in the state with a view to disrupting the government’s development initiatives.
