Mounting of defilement cases is a source of worry

Share

The National Initiative Citizens Awareness (NICA)
has bemoaned the mounting defilement cases in the country.

NICA President Kelvin Sampa says the vice must be frowned upon by all citizens and that the law should be firmly applied on perpetrators in a bid to put a stop to the scourge.

He was speaking when the National Initiative Citizens Awareness (NICA) donated US$1000 to Saint Michaels Community School of Lusaka West.

Mr. Sampa said sexual abuse impacted negatively on the children as it traumatized the rest of their adult life.

He said children need to learn and grow in an environment that is full of love and joy so that they may reach their full potential.

And receiving the cheque, School Headmaster Humphrey Musonda said the money would be used to purchase desks and other learning aids in order to enhance the quality of education at the school.

Mr. Musonda appealed to other organizations and members of the general public to come to the aid of the school so that more children can have access to education.

He said the school lacks accommodation for teachers and adequate food for the pupils.

The school was founded in 1997 with 15 pupils at the time but now accommodates 753 pupils and has five teachers.
