Child Labour: ''Some parents are as bad as bandits' - Osun Commissioner advocates tribunal to try offenders

Egbemode also called for the set up of a failed parent’s tribunal for the National Orientation Agency to help to restore lost traditional family values.

While addressing media professionals to refocus their agenda-setting responsibility towards the problem by shifting the society’s consciousness to the collapsed family values, Egbemode said the state government was committed to abolishing the practice of child labour in the society, especially across the agricultural and mining sector.

“Of course, we can issue a statement from the government banning child labour, we can push for the National Assembly to pass a law making it a capital offence to use children for labour, but the question that follows is that how exactly will one more law among several others change the attitude of people?

As bad what did you do to avoid child labour, the father of the child must have come to you for job did you offer him a job am sure no

You are an example of such parent
