Adda Girl Education Foundation marked the International Day of the Girl Child (IDGC) on 18 October 2025 at Government Girls Mega College (GGMC), Doma, with a meaningful event focused on confidence, life skills, and creating safe spaces for girls to thrive.
Launch of the “Muyi Magana” (Let’s Talk) Club
A key highlight of the day was the establishment of the “Muyi Magana” (Let’s Talk) Club in the school. The club is designed as a safe space for girls: a supportive community where students can connect, learn, share ideas, and build skills that improve their wellbeing and future opportunities.
The club will be facilitated by Mrs. Martina Mansur, who will guide discussions and activities to ensure the space remains empowering, inclusive, and girl centred.
Learning Through Interactive Sessions
To make learning practical and engaging, the girls participated in sessions that combined education with fun. They were introduced to a Period Diary, shared with us by “She’s the First” and took part in a “What To Do” game—an interactive activity that presents real-life questions with multiple response options. Students read the options they received and discussed them together, selecting the best answers as a group. This helped the girls explore healthy decision-making, self-awareness, and better ways to respond to everyday situations.
The session was led by the presenter and resource person, Hajiya Fatima Alu, who guided the girls through the discussions with clarity and encouragement.
Support From School and Ministry Representatives
The school leadership was represented at the event on behalf of the Principal, Haj. Fatima Ali Baba. The Ministry of Education was also represented by Haj. Aishatu Saidu, who praised the Foundation’s efforts and encouraged students to participate actively in club activities to benefit fully from the opportunities it offers.
Earlier in the programme, the Foundation’s Programme Coordinator, Abubakar Abdullahi Hussain, shared an overview of Adda Girl Education Foundation’s mission and work. He expressed appreciation to the school management and the Ministry of Education for their support and warm reception, and encouraged the girls to listen closely, participate, and ask questions whenever they needed clarity.
A Strong Finish and a Promising Start
At the close of the event, the students expressed heartfelt gratitude to Adda Girl Education Foundation and offered prayers for more programmes in their school. Many of the girls also pledged to become active members of the “Muyi Magana” Club, recognising its importance and the value it brings to their lives.
Adda Girl Education Foundation remains committed to creating safe, supportive spaces where girls are heard, equipped, and empowered: today and always.
