Recently, I noticed the cold attitude of one of my high fliers towards school. It became so palpable that it made me very uncomfortable. She started with late coming and I called her and cautioned her and even though I have tried as much as possible not to be beating them, I used the instrumentality of the cane to threaten her in the quest to make her fall back on the track. From there it graduated to absenteeism. That was when I realized that my sheep has been taken by the wolf and as a shepherd, my eyes became teary. My child I knew hardly misses school, her presence commands an aura and her absence would surely be noticed by the teacher and her mates. At first, I called her to ask what was wrong but she casually told me she was fine. That her aunts often request that she stays behind and assist in the shop or do some chores. when the situation persisted I summoned the courage to visit her home and have a word with the aunt. The response I got from the aunt was not what I expected and it left me with more concerns. This girl in question lost her mom at an early age and probably the father thought his sister might be in a better position to fill in the gap and provide the girl with motherly love and care. I think it was on this note that he handed her over to his sister. Today as usual I was teaching and my once vocal, cerebral and extrovert child was less concerned about what I was teaching. She sat absent-mindedly until one of my colleagues had to call her back to life. After the class, I took her to a corner and pleaded with her to tell me what was wrong. she started crying telling me that she isn't comfortable with where she was staying. That her aunt does insult her dead mum and even caused her that she won't rest in peace. She mentioned that most times she hardly feeds to school and has to stay hungry throughout the schooling hours while she makes sure her children are well fed before sending them to school. I joined her crying all the while placing myself in her shoes. This is a girl whose school uniform was even aewn by one of the teachers just so she could continue schooling on the account of how she was diligent with her studies. In our little ways as her teachers, we are trying our best not to lose this gem. The fact is she has a lot of potentials and is very promising. The major challenge now is her feeding. At least we can have something to give her every day while we keep working on her aunt. If you are willing to be a part of this story and save this little girl you can assist with the little that you have. 08144366761 |

If she's maltreating the girl, report the Aunt to the Police and make sure your Schools management is aware of the case. i.e. The Head teacher, Proprietor and some members of Staff. Its not right coming online to post your own account. Besides if the girl still stays with her Aunt, how do you want the money to benefit her, knowing her Aunt will still be the one in charge of whatever monies you give. 2 Likes |

Reminds me during my service year ,had a lad that'd come to school one week out of a whole term. He was overaged for his class ,always withdrawn but very intelligent.I later queried him and found out he lived with his elder brother's family.His bro lives abroad and comes home every 2 months so the boy lived alone with the wife who had converted him to a sales boy for her boutique. Each time the man comes home,he will come to school ,once he travels back she will redirect him to the shop .The brother is very unaware of the wife's shenignans.I tried to help but the boy was so afraid . Alot of we Women are wicked.Tueh! and the men try to know what is happening around you. If that man took out time to ask the bro what was going on,I'm sure everything will be uncovered. |
