Panel Session 1: Education - An All-Girls Session
“Amplifying Girls’ Voices to Close the Gap on Access and Quality of Education in Nigeria”
Moderator: @ADEDOOYIIN

Hasana Dauda described education as “an opportunity to dream without fear.” She identified insecurity, lack of access to sanitary pads, and the need for listening ears as key gaps, urging schools to create student parliaments where girls can table issues affecting their education. “Do it intentionally to make the girl brave,” she said.

Fatimah Ali Tijani noted that not all girls have the same opportunity to access education. She highlighted bullying, fear of speaking to teachers, and parents’ inability to afford education as barriers, calling on teachers to become mentors and reminding girls that it is okay to ask for help when school feels difficult.

Dorcas Paul Inji said education goes beyond attending school, it includes protection from child marriage and child labour. She encouraged girls to speak up, express their concerns, and “continue running the race even when it feels difficult.”

Maimuna Ahmad said access means every girl-child has the chance to fulfil her dream. She urged adults to listen to girls and encouraged young girls to speak up and refuse intimidation.

The point of streaks is to keep up with your close friends you don’t text often, not that stupid fire beside it. So when you finally open a streak and you find out they were very ill a month ago, what does that make you? A STRANGER. So get off the streak list.

What is good for Dami is good for Chinkem.

Provocative titles are here to stay.

In any case, I think people should read the prose before slamming their gavels.

“You’re so laid back.”
Thanks. If I lean forward, I’m going to jail.

after heat & poverty, the next thing I hate is public transport

[Kristen @Kica333]

My main goal when I’m out in public is to not run into anyone I know.

[dior. @diorasf__]

the real reason why i don’t like picnics is because we sit on the grass & there’s nothing to lean against

I wish tomorrow was December.

Reading a book without knowing anything about it and being pleasantly wrecked is one of life's underrated joys.

“I have never come back from any holiday feeling relaxed, refreshed & reinvigorated to get back into work.

I come back with the taste of freedom, still fresh in my mouth, a renewed hatred for work, and a strong suspicion that this is not what I should be spending my life doing.”

[Patricia’s Daughter @AnitaDamina]

Translated this to Hausa. I’m hoping to see more versions in a lot more Nigerian languages soon. I hope we win this time.

One day, ʿĀ’ishah (RA) told the Prophet ﷺ the famous story of Umm Zarʿ, a story of 11 women, each speaking candidly about their husbands.
But one woman’s story stood out.
Umm Zarʿ.
A woman who loved hard.
And lost harder.

My life will look so different (VERY GOOD DIFFERENT) by the end of this year.

Will come back to this tweet.
