This beautiful girl in the photo is Nurije Zekaj. She is one of the many girls and women of Kosovo, whose name has joined the glorious history of the Albanian people.
Nurije Zekaj was born on March 11, 1967, in the village of Raushiq, Peja. Nurija was a third-year student at the Pedagogy Department of the Faculty of Philosophy in Pristina, she was a member of the Youth Parliament and one of the young women who joined the great all-people action of Blood Reconciliation.
On February 2, 1990, with the initiative of Anton Çetta, the patriotic and humanitarian action of blood forgiveness began in Kosovo, which took on large proportions, spreading throughout the country. This is also considered the most organized and fruitful year of the Albanian nation, which entered history as the year of unity and reconciliation of the Albanian people wherever they lived, within ethnic lands and in exile.
The student Nurije Zekaj also joined this national initiative with all her energy.
But the girl’s activism was cut short after on April 23, 1990, the UDB organized an accident that took the young activist’s life. Nuhije Zekaj will remain unforgettable in the hearts of the people of Kosovo and an example of its youth.
May her memory be unforgettable!”
