In a related development, Mr. Richard Baku, the partnership facilitator for the Tongu Cluster of Projects, said that Compassion International shall continue to partner parents, churches and other stakeholders to give sound education and welfare to children in a bid to eliminate poverty.

“Let us stop paying mere lip service to the protection of children’s rights. Let us be proactive in advocating for children’s rights and accelerate our collective efforts to end child abuse in our communities now,” Mr. Baku urged.

Speaking as a guest, Mr. Israel Akrobortu, the Volta Regional Director for the Department of Children, told the participants that failure to protect the rights of children is a crime against children and that efforts should be made by all stakeholders to protect children against child marriage, child labour, defilement, trafficking, kidnapping, substance abuse, among others.

On security issues, Detective Sergeant Courage Akpaloo, of the Sogakope Divisional Criminal Investigations Department (CID) of Ghana Police Service, told the participants to report quickly abuse and criminal cases against children to the right authorities for actions to be taken on them.

The Tongu Cluster of Projects, with 4, 102 beneficiary children, operates in 14 communities: Sogakope, Mafi-Adidome, Mafi-Kumase, Mafi-Dove, Mafi-Devime, Mafi-Asiekpe, Mafi-Gidikpoe, Mafi-Anfoe, Mafi-Zongo, Vome, Volo, New Bakpa, Kpoviadzi and Afiadenyigba.

Reports say as at June, last year, Compassion International (Ghana), a Christian non-profit organisation, has been partnering 337 churches in Ghana to run child and youth development programmes and to release 86, 734 children and young people from poverty in Jesus’ name.
