UNICEF Jubilates Over Rescue Of Over 50 Children From Underground Cell In Ondo

The United Nations Children Education Fund (UNICEF) has expressed happiness over the discovery and rescue of over 50 children in an underground cell in Ondo State Church.

The body, in a short statement today, July 3, commended the police and other security agencies for a job well done, even as it condemned those who are responsible for the abduction of the children.

“Children should not be targets of violence in whatever guise. Violence against children is condemnable and we call on governments to redouble efforts to protect children against all forms of violence. A society’s health is measured by how it treats its children.”
