We Will not Return to School Again – Freed Zamfara School Girls

News - Women's Perspective

Some of the Kidnapped school girls of Government Girls Secondary School, Jangebe in Talata Local Government Area of Zamfara State have vowed not to return to school ever again.

Two hundred and seventy (270) school girls were kidnapped from their school on the 25th of February but freed after a few days by their abductors.

Speaking with Sahara Reporters today, Friday, 19th of March, some of the girls insisted they will not return to school for whatsoever reason.

Some others say they are willing to resume their education, but in another school in Gusau.

One of them said that “My friends and I have decided not to return to school again because we don’t want gunmen to abduct us again.”

Another freed student said that even if she wanted to be a medical doctor or a nurse, she was not longer returning to school.

In her words, “My future ambition before was to be a medical doctor or nurse but I won’t be going back to school again. The Nigerian government has failed to protect us.”

One of the teachers in the school said, “With what they experienced in the hand of the kidnappers, some of them told me ‘Mallam, I’m not going back to school again.’ I didn’t say anything because I know what they narrated what the experienced in the bush to me.”
