Rabiatu Yahaya is 16 but only attended primary school till basic basic 3. She dropped out of school due to rising insecurity, poverty and long distance of school to her home. She supports her parents by hawking peanut oil, powder and cake.. She is one of the 15 girls we reached last week via our WomenPRIDE.Africa STEM Outreach in digital literacy. Girls were taught how to safely conduct business online using simple tools like Whatsapp.
These girls, though out-of-school; are brilliant and willing to go back to school after going through basic digital literacy programs.
