A child rights advocate has applauded stakeholders for their immense roles in bringing out issues of child labour and exploitation. According to Bright Appiah, the system put in place by the Police administration as well as the Ministry of Women and Children’s Affairs is bringing to the fore the activities of child labour. In just a week, three high profile cases of child trafficking has been recorded across the country. The first was from the Upper East Region where two people were arrested when they attempted to traffick children down South, ostensibly to take part in menial jobs. The second was in Cape Coast where but for the timely intervention of the police, a total of 118 children would have been trafficked to Half Assin to work. Some 284 children were again intercepted Sunday in Ada when they were en route to the Volta Region to work. Whilst Bright Appiah is full of praise for the police for being proactive he wished stakeholders will rather provide immediate care to the children. In an interview with Joy FM's Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, the advocate called for stringent laws that will clearly spell out what children can and cannot do, adding the image being created by the endless reports of child labour and trafficking does not augur well for the country. According to him, the fishing industry has gained notoriety for the use of under aged children because the children are known to be agile and industrious. He called on stakeholders to seek support from International Organisations who are ready to support the fight against child labour. Story by Nathan Gadugah/myjoyonline.com/Ghana
