8 Year Old Fatima Braves Natures, Walks 2km To School Every day

Fatima, an eight-year old girl, braves all odds to reach her school every day as she treks a long distance of 2 kilometers from her village in Unguwar Tofa in Zamfara state to Tsafe. According to a post made by Hausawa on Facebook on Thursday, July 30, the little girl does not fail to go to school unless she is sick. 

In the three pictures shared on social media, she is seen walking on bare floor that seems to have been affected by flood.

One Abdullahi Mohammad commented on the post and said, with a picture supporting it, that Hajiya Aisha Bello Matawalle, the first lady in the state, donated a motocycle to the girl on Thursday, August 1.

Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported about the pathetic story of Kokodiagbene primary school in Delta state where a dirty well serves as their only source of water. A boy who was recently spotted at the well said that the well serves as not just their only source of water, but that they rely on it to bathe too. This is despite the fact that the Niger Delta is blessed with crude oil, which is the life wire of the country's economy. It should, however, be noted that over the years, the federal government has tried to step into the situation by creating the Ministry of the Niger Delta Affairs.
