My students
Kenya 🇰🇪 “I am a student counsellor at Garissa University. After the terrorist attack there, I rushed to the hospital and bought food for the survivors. I held the girls in my arms to give them some sense of motherly love. I could feel their pain. And I was in shock, I thought to myself: “How could the girls I was counselling yesterday be dead today?” More than anything else, I want girls to be given enough priority for jobs. As you know, when they are poor, you can even see in Nairobi, some of the girls work as prostitutes. Why do you think they are prostitutes? Because they don’t have anything to eat at home and they don’t have anybody to buy clothes for them. So as a mother, I can say, ladies should be given education.”
