Woman Member of Parliament inspiring adolescent girl to stay and complete school

Dear Hon Driwaru Zaituni,

I am Aninga Edwin from Yumbe District aged 20 years old. I would like to appreciate you for your support of giving advice to all girls to focus on our education. You make us and our parents to appreciate the importance of educating girls. In my free time, I encourage adolescent girls to stay in school just like you do.

I also tell them to report to trusted leaders all experiences that they can lead them to drop out of school. Your words encourage me. I now prioritize studies. I revise my books even during this school closure because I can’t imagine my future without education. 

I avoid bad peer groups and sex. I want to become a nurse so that I can rescue people’s lives by giving them treatment when they become sick.

Thank you for being an inspiration to me and many adolescent girls in Yumbe District. May God bless you. 

Yours sincerely 

Aninga Edwin
