Africa-Press – Lesotho. <\/strong><\/span>It\u2019s 8:30 on a Thursday evening, and dozens of young men are crammed into a classroom, elbowing each other and competing to look at battered old English and math books. Thabo Kobo, 17, is among them.<\/p>\n

He attends lessons every weeknight at the Good Shepherd Night School run by the Good Shepherd Sisters of Quebec in this tiny mountainous village in central Lesotho, where sisters offer Thabo and other herders like him an education.<\/p>\n

<\/a>At age 12, Thabo dropped out of school \u2014 grade 3 \u2014 after his parents told him to look for a job as a herder to help them take care of the family and educate his sisters.<\/p>\n

However, after becoming a herder in a nearby village, he enrolled at the sisters\u2019 night school to continue his education. \u201cI wanted to continue studying, but my parents couldn\u2019t allow me.<\/p>\n

They only wanted my sisters to go to school,\u201d he told Global Sisters Report, noting that the move did not dampen his dreams, and he was now in grade 5 at the school.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter getting a job, I decided to go back to school to achieve my dream of becoming an accountant one day.<\/p>\n

<\/a>He added: \u201cDuring the day, I am always busy in the fields taking care of my employer\u2019s sheep, goats and cattle, but I attend classes at night when the animals are resting.<\/p>\n

He is among thousands of young men in the southern African nation of more than 2 million people who are being empowered through education by religious sisters.<\/p>\n

The sisters started the school in 2003 to cater to boys who have culturally been barred from accessing formal education but work as herders and shepherds.<\/p>\n

Lesotho, a high-altitude, landlocked kingdom encircled by South Africa, is one of the few countries in the world where more girls go to school than boys.<\/p>\n

In many poor African countries, families choose to educate boys because of scarce resources and cultural practices that keep girls from receiving formal education, but here, the gender gap in education favors girls.<\/p>\n

<\/a>According to recent UNICEF data, Lesotho has 1.6 girls enrolled in secondary school for every boy, making it the highest ratio in the world for female education attainment.<\/p>\n

Other recent UNICEF reports show that about 22% of children between ages 5 and 17 are engaged in some form of child labor. More boys are involved in child labor than girls, the report says, which has led to the decline in school attendance for boys.<\/p>\n

Sister Jacintha Sefali, who is in charge of the Good Shepherd Night School, said the country\u2019s culture expects boys to protect and herd cattle, sheep and goats for their families or look for jobs as herdsmen, which requires them to drop out of school.<\/p>\n

High unemployment and poverty in Lesotho have also led many teenage boys to withdraw from school to migrate to South Africa to work in mines or find other employment, she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn our country, education for the boy child is the least of people\u2019s concerns,\u201d Sefali said.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo one bothers about the future of the boys. When a boy gets to 10 years old, the parents see him as old enough to earn money, while girls are allowed to go to school. \u201d<\/p>\n

Sefali said the trend has created hatred between siblings. \u201cThe majority of the boys feel that only girls have been empowered and are treated better than them,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

At the school, the sisters teach the boys basic education using a normal school curriculum, including how to read and write, and provide meals to ensure the boys attend their lessons. At the end of every year, the boys are given exams. Those who pass are promoted to the next grade.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor those too old to study or marry, we teach them hands-on skills on how to read and write, focusing on subjects such as mathematics and English to help them run businesses,\u201d she said, noting that thousands of boys have gone through the school since it started.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have lessons every day, and we have committed ourselves to making sure that the boys are also empowered, just like the girls.<\/p>\n

\u201d Nkieane Lillane is one of the beneficiaries.<\/p>\n

The sisters enrolled him at the institution in 2012, when he was in grade 6, after his parents forced him to withdraw from school and look for a job as a herder.<\/p>\n

Lillane, now 29, attended night lessons until he graduated after completing grade 12 in 2016. \u201cThe sisters changed my life. They gave me money to start a small business after graduating,\u201d said the father of two.<\/p>\n

He now owns a tavern in Semonkong. \u201cThe sisters are doing a good job. They have assisted very many herd boys in getting an education. \u201d Other congregations in Lesotho also run night schools to empower boys.<\/p>\n

The Sisters of St. Joseph of Saint-Hyacinthe run a night school in the northeastern city of Mokhotlong, where herders take animals in search of dwindling pastures.<\/p>\n

The sisters also raise awareness of young men\u2019s rights among the communities and appeal to parents to empower them by providing an education. \u201cWe are talking to parents and other stakeholders to ensure boys are not denied the right to education,\u201d said Sister Anna Lereko, provincial superior.<\/p>\n

Thabo agreed with her, saying the government should prosecute parents who do not take their sons to school. \u201cThe government and parents should give more opportunities to the boys just as they give to the girls,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
