INTERNATIONAL DAY OF THE AFRICAN CHILD
On 16th June 2022 Prof. J. A. A. Agbonika, SAN, the Chairperson FIDA Gwagwalada Branch led members to celebrate the International Day of the African Child with a visit to Paiko Kore Community in Gwagwalada Area Council, to sensitize parents and children, especially women. The men were not left out.
It was an opportunity to tell them the importance of education and ways to help eliminate harmful practices against children in Africa.
It was a bit challenging to communicate with them in English but thanks to our great interpreter, Mrs. Zara Balami, the Welfare Secretary, FIDA Gwagwalada Branch who translated from English to Hausa.
The community came out in their numbers to listen. Apart from the training, FIDA Gwagwalada Branch made a donation of foodstuffs to the women and children.
