Today we commemorate the day of the African child. African children in
conflict areas are subjected to all forms of abuses like being recruited as child
soldiers, subjected to combat activities like spying and used as wives of
combatants. They are deployed to do all sorts of mayhem against the
community.

As a ministry, we dont allow the employment of children. For instance in
2016 we visited Qansahdheere town on a mission to recruit security forces
and declined to recruit young children between 13-15 years who had showed
up to be recruited. We instead decided to provide them with special care.

Children face a lot of problems, not only in Somalia and not only in South
West. They are suffering in different places in the world. They are being
recruited by Al-Shabaab militants and the government is to some extent is
also guilty. Sometimes you see unacceptable abuses against children, for
example, a child controlling traffic at a checkpoint but you cannot do
anything, which is part of the problem. We should end these violations as
soon as possible by applying relevant laws.

Kismayo, Baidoa, 19 June 2017 - The regional states of Jubbaland and South West
commemorated the Day of the African Child with a pledge to end all forms of child
abuse.
The pledge was made on Saturday by local leaders in the administrative capitals of
Kismayo and Baidoa.
Speaking in Baidoa, South West State Minister of Labour and Social Affairs, Jeylani
Sheikh Mohamed, said the regional government is opposed to child labour, adding
that the local administration will do everything within its powers to solve the
problem.
Children face a lot of problems, not only in Somalia and not only in South West.
They are suffering in different places in the world. They are being recruited by Al-
Shabaab militants and the government is to some extent also guilty. This is because
sometimes you see unacceptable abuses against children, for example, a child
controlling traffic at a checkpoint but you cannot do anything, which is part of the
problem. We should end these violations as soon as possible by applying relevant
laws, he noted.
In Kismayo, Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Martin Ernest Abilu, the Head of
AMISOM Police in Jubbaland, accused Al-Shabaab of taking advantage of children by
recruiting them to commit acts of terror.
Today we commemorate the day of the African child. African children in conflict
areas are subjected to all forms of abuses like being recruited as child soldiers and
subjected to combat activities like spying and used as wives of combatants. They are
deployed to do all sorts of mayhem against the community, ACP. Abilu stated.
The Day of the African Child is celebrated on June 16 every year. It was first initiated
1991 by the Organization of African Unity (OAU), now African Union. Ends
