Mercy Makinde, a Nigerian entrepreneur, writer, speaker and a good Samaritan has released a letter touching people’s hearts.
The letter urged parents to pay more attention to their kids to avoid the rampant amount of child abuse happening in the country at the moment.
The revelations was made during the ‘Touch Me Not Campaign’ which is an Awareness Program for Nursery, Primary and Secondary Schools Nationwide to sensitize the public to child abuse.
Read what she shared on her social media page yesterday;
It’s been another depressing day today as we embarked on the TOUCH ME NOT CAMPAIGN and listened to the woes of our dear children of this country!
They are going through so much and we can’t just keep watching some evil people destroy the lives of these innocent children.
Parents, please listen to your children. Believe them if they report any case of abuse to you. Our children are dying in silence!
They live in fear. They are being threatened by Abusers right under your roof. No matter the high-class school you put them… no matter the plenty school fees you are paying… these kids won’t thrive if they are dealing with this trauma.
Parents, please keep an eagle eye on your child. If you can’t deal with the reality of them being abused, rather than sweep it under the carpet please seek help. Call us!
Below are pleas in the form of letters from different children being abused
