I would like to ask every one to imagine going to pick up your child from day care, only to find out that she is not right, rushing to the hospital to be told many things are yet to come. Her Family by her side watching her head swell, new bruising appearing by the minute, and yet almost 3 years later her family is still fighting for justice. This innocent little baby was harmed by the very people paid to take care of her.

* Another victim, Master Udo Etim Nkankanta, 12 year old from Ikot Ekpene*
Udo in Nsit Ubiom in tears, in his Ibibio dialect said, "I have never been to school before, my father never sent me to school. The local
church in my area said I am a witch and my father and people in the community abandoned me. My father tied me to a pillar and beat me
mercilessly until my left arm got broken and the borne shot out. He would even put fire in my mouth and torture me saying that I am the
devil causing all his problems.

The Mikey Times: Nigerian Child Witches: Hate and Hope

Kelli S. — Sat, 03 Jan 2009 08:13:48 +0000

Gary Foxcroft traveled to the Niger Delta in 2003 working toward a master’s thesis on community perceptions of the oil industry. What he discovered changed his life: children abandoned, littered along roadsides, hacked with machetes, doused with acid, nails driven into their skulls, slashed, maimed, or poisoned, as punishment, to extract confessions, or to exorcise demons. And these are the lucky ones, mere outcasts -- ostracized, beaten, rejected, but with warm blood still pumping through their tiny hearts. Untold numbers were not so lucky.

Petition for safe schools for girls

Aggy — Mon, 28 Jul 2008 15:32:06 +0100

Schools are places for children to learn and grow. But many girls all over the world go to school fearing for their safety. Though both girls and boys of school age can be the victims of violence, girls are more likely to be the victims of gender-based violence, particularly sexual abuse and violence.
