It was indeed joyful meeting the kids who were happy and as well entertained the MAF family.
The Resident Priest Rev. Fr. Ogada who narrated the touching stories and ordeals of the kids said that some of those kids who are seen as bad eggs in the society are actually not bad.
He said that circumstances could change one’s behaviours, he also said the society can equally influence one’s behaviours.
He advised parent and guardians to take care in bringing up their kids/wards and not to allow them experience emotional trauma, social crisis especially in the family as whatever they experience will forever remain in their hearts and shall continue to influence them.
Looking at the kids, they looked happy and even portrayed joy, the priest however lamented that their challenges have been lack of support from organizations, individuals and government.
