Anambra Bans Use Of Vulnerable Persons For Alms Begging by raker300: 7:32am On Feb 18, 2017 |
The state government says it will no longer tolerate the use of vulnerable persons by some unscrupulous elements to source for alms, across the State. It therefore warned that anyone caught using children, sick persons, under any guise to solicit for alms, will be apprehended and made to face prosecution. A release signed by the Commissioner for Social Welfare, Children and Women’s Affairs, Dr Victoria Chikwelu, expressed dismay over the indiscriminate use of children, the sick and other persons in need of medical attention for alms begging, which she noted compounds the medical and mental status of the victims. The release which described Anambra State as child friendly, advised the public to report persons who engage in using children for alms begging to the Ministry of Social Welfare, Children and Women’s Affairs in Awka, or the nearest Police Station for prompt action. http://www.absradiotv.com/index.php/state/6429-anambra-bans-use-of-vulnerable-persons-for-alms-begging#.WKZwHiHYfGM.facebook 3 Likes 1 Share |
