One woman's hope to bringing education to those in need - BBC Africa
Nigeria has one of the world’s lowest school attendance rates, according to Unicef – one out of every five children out of school around the world is here. One woman is on a mission to reverse that trend by starting a free education initiative. Noro and Edward, who both dropped out of school after losing their parents to violence, are two students who benefited from Prayer Nwagboso's initiative, and now hope to study medicine and nursing at university respectively. This is a heartwarming, positive story that will appeal to our young, underserved audiences.
