Why is your relative, or your friend’s relative, not in secondary school when they should be?

BACKGROUND

In October, we asked you, our listeners, if you had cousins or siblings of secondary school age who were not going to school. We received SMSs from 64 people saying that yes, they had a relative not in school, and 29 of you said No, you don’t have a relative not in school.

For those who said yes, we would like to know the various reasons why your relative, or the relative of someone you know, is not in school.
