| Children attending class in one of the areas in Tanzania. |
I came across this Picture on one of the Tanzanian Newspaper's website. This is the way children go to class, the floor is their desk, slippers are their shoes, and uniforms are a nightmare. they are only lucky to have a book and pencils...OMG
Education is one of the rights that every child is mandated to have. It is however sad that not many children especially in our mother continent Africa get this opportunity.
Despite many Governments efforts to provide affordable education, many children still do not receive the basics the education gives, good example is the UPE in Uganda, it has failed to be fruitful. The good news however is, these programmes can be reviewed to make education better.
We want to see all children enjoying their rights, Governments and all stake holders, we must play our parts in the realisation of a better education for all children. Governments, please allocate funds and review programmes such that Education can be boosted in many especially the remote areas.
