I am biased since also author of a funding request to InnovateAFRICA.
But still... it looks like fully copyrighted. Unless I am missing
something ?

Hello

As part of the endorsement phase for #innovateAFRICA, we have released a
new tweet.

Your 12yr old daughter; a bride. Not in the news @WikiLovesWomen places
Wikipedians in Africas media #InnovateAfrica bit.ly/WLWCb

You are welcome to copy paste it and further disseminate it ;)

As a side note... the video mentionned in that tweet was created by
CEE-HOPE, lead by Betty Abah.

The video is part of a campaign against child marriage

RUN is a short documentary film focusing on child marriage in Nigeria.
Though outlawed, the practice still pervades in many parts of the
country with blighting effects on girls’ development. In this
documentary by CEE-HOPE, a Nigerian NGO working with vulnerable
children/girls, a teenager is married off against her wish; but in the
end, her determination wins over as she returns to school after childbirth.
A series of expert interviews, statistical evidence from leading global
bodies on the prevalence rate as well as local (traditional) colours add
spice and substance to this short and compelling production from CEE-HOPE.

Thank you so much for your work Betty

This video was freed as part of the Wiki loves Women project in Nigeria,
thanks to the amazing work conducted by Wikimedia UG Nigeria team, lead
by Shola.
