Nigerian Woman, Edith, Counsels Parents On Sending Minors Abroad To Study
A Nigerian woman, Irorere Edith, in a series of tweets explained why parents should not send their minors abroad to study on their own without a guardian.
The Twitter user who narrated her 17-year-old cousin’s plight, disclosed that the young girl who arrived Russia to study less than a year ago is already 4 months pregnant and completely distraught.
According to Edith, the teenager’s mum blocked her on Whatsapp after the school contacted and told her they need $600 to terminate the pregnancy. The Nigerian lady who maintained in her tweets that parents should not send a minor abroad to study on her own, explained that the freedom they get outside Nigeria is intoxicating.
