Kids speak out on child sacrifice and kidnapping
Jan 30, 2009
Government should create more jobs for people because majority of the poor people are the ones who participate in child sacrifice. They should be given jobs and this will solve the whole problem. <br>Elsie Tumwebaze, 12, <br>Greenhill Academy

Government should punish people who sacrifice children by imprisoning them for life. This will set an example to other people who want to kidnap and sell children to witch doctors. Children should learn not to trust people.

I think witch doctors who sacrifice children should be killed by firing squad. This will scare other people who want to do the same. Children should not be sent out to the shops at night.

The Government should register all the witchdoctors in the country and eliminate the fake ones who sacrifice kids.

Children should always stay at home and help their parents with housework. If a stranger comes home you make an alarm. This will attract people and if it is a kidnapper, he will be arrested.

NGOs should remove kids from the streets. Most of these children do not have adults looking after them and because of this, it is very easy for kidnappers to take them and sell them to witchdoctors. My advice to children is that they should not befriend strangers because they could be kidnappers.

Special Police forces should be set up to protect children against kidnappers on the streets. Children should learn self defense skills like karate, kung fu and boxing to defend themselves when attacked by kidnappers.

I think parents whose children have been sacrificed should be compensated by the Government because it failed to protect their children. My advice to kids is that they should always move in groups and help each other when they get in trouble by screaming for help or stoning people who want to kidnap them.

Children should always inform friends, parents or any grown ups at home where they are going , what they are going to do and with whom so that if they do not return home they know where to find them quickly. People who are guilty of child sacrifice should be sentenced for life.
Caroline Naigaga Mugoya, 12, Gayaza Junior School
Children should always move with grown ups because kidnappers are scared of them. Kidnappers and those who sacrifice children should be arrested and never to be let out of jail.

I think all children, regardless of their age, should not be left with neighbours or strangers. These are the people who can easily sell your children to witchdoctors.
