Girl-child education advocate, Malala Yousafzai, accompanied by her dad, met
with Pres. Jonathan today Monday July 14 at the State House. Speaking during
the meeting, president Jonathan said;
“I personally believe that since
about 50 per cent of our population are female, we will be depriving ourselves
of half of our available human resources if we fail to educate our girls
adequately or suppress their ambitions in any way. We are therefore taking
steps to curb all forms of discrimination against girls and women, and have
also undertaken many affirmative actions on their behalf" he
stated. See more photos after the cut...
