The Nigeria Association of Women Journalists, B Zone is appealing to all stakeholders in the society to stop any forms of violence, discrimination, stigmatization, molestation and exploitation against children as they are an integral part of our society.
The Zone, in a statement to commemorate year 2024 Children’s day and jointly signed by the Vice Chairperson of the Zone, Adeola Adekunle and the Secretary, Adeola Adewole describes this year’s Theme ‘Inclusion for Every Child Belonging to any Society ‘ as a clarion call that no Child should be left behind in all the welfare programs available in the society, irrespective of gender,age,tribe,culture or religion.
They should equally be included in every family decision making as they are joy of every home.
