CHILD LABOUR

Poverty from my region is quickly beoming an out of hard issue for the village to handle. The people are slowly turning into beggers in the streets while others turn out to be bandits, thieves and murdered. Children though are most affected becaseu they are forced to drop out of school and take up casual jobs at the sugarcane plantation which is the most available economic activiity for the people area.
The governemtn through Kenyan National Human Rights Commision and a UN body on the rights of children UNICEF  have taken action and given stance warning to employees who employ children below the stipulated age.
