Stop The Labeling Of Children As Witches
Target:
President Umaru Musa Yar'adua,Nigerian Children's Parliament (NCP),Christian Association of Nigeria, Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PEN)
Sponsored by:
We the undersigned urge you to come together and implement a law that would punish anyone who labels a child as a witch with intentions of harming ( Physically or mentally ) or with intentions of extortion or exploitation of any kind. It is child abuse and should not be tolerated.
Violators should be arrested, sentenced by a high counsel, jailed and prosecuted in regards to the extent of the crime. They should also be ordered to pay for the rehabilitation of the child.
Victims should be rehabilitated without being charged.
Everyone should be educated about this matter.
Children should be loved, nurtured, educated and respected. Without children the human race as we know it, would not be. Children are our future and the way they are treated affects the whole world. It is truly shameful to not stop this horrifying act on innocent children. The world is watching.
I want to let everyone know that I do not have any ties with SSN or CRARN. I do fully support them and they are truly appreciated.
This petition was written by me only and they had no influence on what I have stated in this petition.
Thank you,
Kelli Stowe

The killing of innocent children needs urgent action. The UN needs to oversee the education of the people who wrongly interpret God's word and bring those responsible to account.

There needs to be something done to put a stop to this horrific treatment against these children These poor children I cannot understand how people can treat children so cruelly and heartlessly. To torture, maim, injure and scar them for life both mentally and physically with deliberate intent is abominable. Children are a beautiful gift to us and should be loved, nurtured, cherished, well cared for, hugged alot and told they are loved on a regular basis and more. Well there are alot of us in the world that maybe don't know them but we love them just the same and prayer or wish the best for them. I am happy to hear that there is an organization who is helping these children in providing them with much of what they need to help them begin to heal. The love, support, friendship, food , schooling and all the care they receive from these good people will give them so much of what they need to begin their healing journey. Thank you Stepping Stones Nigeria for helping these children!

Look to your heart as you make a decision on this matter. They are defenseless children and need protection. Feeding of people's fears for a profit is bad enough, but to use it against children is unfathomable. Please extend your protection and help to those who cannot help themselves. Thank you!

Please help these dear little children. I cannot believe that in the 21st century, little children are being labelled as 'witches'. Even their mothers stand by and watch them being abused, tortured or even killed. This is pure EVIL and must be stopped. We must be their voice. It is absolutely unbelieveable what these children have to endure. They are being exploited in the most horrible way. Even if the exploitation stopped, there is still the fact that they are malnourished, do not have access to proper education and live in awful squalor. It is just so very wrong. Our world is so unbalanced. I find it obscene that there are people who have huge amounts of money that they do not need and just squander it, when there are milllions of people and children worldwide who genuinely need money for basic things like food, health care, a home to live in, clothes and education. These are basic human rights that should be available to everybody worldwide. I know it sounds idealistic, but the scales need to be balanced. From one who genuinely cares. SALLY D.

These children must be rehabilitated immediately - before they starve to death. Education is so important to get people to stop believing in primitive superstitions.
