Three young Nigerian girls, Nafisa Abdullahi, Rukaiya Mohammed Fema, and Khadija Kashim Kalli, have been awarded life-changing scholarships by the Atiku Abubakar Foundation (AAF) after emerging as global winners at the TeenEagle Global finals.
The fully-funded scholarships will cover the girls' education from secondary school to university, enabling them to pursue their academic dreams without financial burden.
The AAF's gesture aligns with its commitment to supporting quality education, particularly for girls and vulnerable groups. The foundation recognizes that empowering young women is a powerful investment in Nigeria's future.
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar emphasized the importance of investing in girls' education, stating that it has a ripple effect on families and communities.
The scholarships are a testament to the girls' hard work and academic brilliance, and serve as a beacon of hope for young Nigerians, demonstrating that dedication and support can help achieve their dreams regardless of background or social class.
