In Ghana there has been a positive change in attitude when it comes to sending girls to school, Aliou says, “When girls are educated, they are going to go for professional courses like nursing, medicine, midwifery, mining, engineering their standard of living rises and they support their family far better than the way boys support. And they themselves, their life is completely improved.”
His children understand that true excellence requires continuous effort, discipline, and perseverance. By setting their sights on the highest rank, they challenge themselves to reach their full potential, both intellectually and personally. Their commitment to academic excellence showcases their determination to make the most of their educational journey.
His oldest daughter Malia wants to be a medical doctor in the future and he supports her and her dreams, he says, “she has her own ambitions and she always tells me that even if she’s not able to eradicate drug abuse, she wants to reduce it to the lowest minimum through medical support. And I’m ready to support her.”
By focusing on their books and investing in their education, Aliou’s children open doors to a future filled with endless possibilities. They recognize that knowledge is a powerful tool that can shape their lives and enable them to make a positive impact on their communities. Through their dedication, they strive to become catalysts for change, bringing about progress and contributing to the betterment of society.
