Sabil Sunlight school celebrates 2025 International day of Girl-child 

Management of Sabil Sunlight Learning Center, a private school in Bauchi State, on Friday, 10th October, 2025, joined in the commemoration of the 2025 International Day of the Girl Child (IDGC), with the theme: “The Girl I Am, the Change I Lead.”

The event was organized by Dr. (Mrs.) Mercy John for Senior Secondary School Students (SS1–SS3), with the aim of letting them know what the future holds for them as girls.

Mercy John stressed that, “It was a significant platform to inspire, educate, and empower young girls to recognize their potential as leaders and change-makers in the society.”

According to her, “The importance of this event cannot be overstated—it provided an opportunity to nurture confidence, self-awareness, and leadership among girls at an early stage.”

She added that, “We must begin to catch them young, for when the foundation is right, the building will be firm.”

“I stand with girls and support their leadership. Their voices matter, and their dreams deserve to be heard,” She added.

Mercy John stressed that, “Let us celebrate their achievements and amplify their voices. Let us create girl-led spaces. Wherever you have influence, support safe environments where girls can connect, learn, and receive the mentorship and encouragement they need to thrive.”

She also encouraged the girls to support one another, building a community of strength and sisterhood stating that,”It was an inspiring and unforgettable moment with them.”
