You're watching UNICEF television. 00:00:00
It's a quiet Sunday in this Muslim community of Kasina, a northern state in Nigeria. 00:00:04
While students at this primary school enjoy their day off, 00:00:13
these mothers are busy learning how to read and write, 00:00:17
many for the first time in their lives. 00:00:21
Forty-five-year-old Hadiza was married at age 13, 00:00:25
and she never had the chance to go to school. 00:00:29
Having missed out on schooling for so many years, 00:00:33
she now appreciates education and values it above anything else. 00:00:36
I feel like I've been cheated. 00:00:45
That's why I'm now making sure that my children go to school daily. 00:00:47
I also encourage my neighbors to send their children to school. 00:00:50
Considering the importance of education, 00:00:53
I would not like anyone close to me to lose out on it. 00:00:56
Without it, development is not possible. 00:00:59
At home, Hadiza shares household responsibility with her husband's other wife. 00:01:03
Her two children, 13-year-old Alawiyah and 8-year-old Yusuf, 00:01:10
go to the same school where Hadiza attends her adult literacy class. 00:01:15
In the past, women here were not interested in literacy, 00:01:23
but now they are showing interest. 00:01:26
They study their books until they fall asleep at night. 00:01:28
Through reading, I have also noticed that their cooking is improved, 00:01:31
as well as their personal hygiene. 00:01:34
Hadiza is also actively involved in her community. 00:01:38
Hadiza is also actively involved in her community's school-based management committee. 00:01:42
It's the first time in the village history 00:01:49
that women are allowed to participate in the same forum as men. 00:01:52
With their persistent efforts, 00:01:58
children working during school hours has been banned by many communities, 00:02:00
ensuring all children, especially girls, stay focused on their schooling. 00:02:05
With the $50 million funding committed by the UK, 00:02:13
UNICEF and its government partners 00:02:17
have been able to empower many women throughout northern Nigeria. 00:02:20
Because of this, mothers like Hadiza are now finding a voice in their society 00:02:26
and becoming a driving force to create a brighter future for their children. 00:02:31
In Kasina, northern Nigeria, 00:02:39
this is Kunle reporting for UNICEF Television. 00:02:41
Unite. For Children. 00:02:45
