SEPARATED by a distance of approximately 110 kilometers, three individuals Musa Abdullahi (16), Usman Musa (15), and Abubakar Garin-Dawa (17) find themselves bound by a shared destiny marked by suffering and sorrow. These young Almajiri children have become unwilling victims of child labour within the Tsangaya school overseen by Alarama Idi Yusha’u. The Tsangaya schools are the open spaces where children are made to learn and recite the Qur’an.
