A young girl has revealed her dismay after her father allegedly refused to enroll her in school. According to a report shared online, the teenage hawker who moved from Zaria in Kaduna state to Abuja last year revealed how she misses school as her father reportedly said school isn’t important for girls.

Below is the report which was shared online;

My family just moved to Abuja November last year. My brothers were very happy when we relocated, except me. I really don’t like it here because I miss my friends in Zaria. My brothers are the only ones my father enrolled In school. He said school isn’t important for girls. But my friends in Zaria who are girls are in school. I would always go to their houses once they were back from school, so they could teach me everything they learnt.

They taught me how to recite the alphabet, 36 states and capital and also taught me how to read and write. I do not have any friend here yet who would teach me things. Sometimes when i think of my friends Ada and Bola I become sad.

I really wish to go back to Zaria.
