Osaro Onaiwu Jnr, the frontline House of Representatives aspirant on the platform of the Peoples' Democratic Party, PDP, has declared his uncompromising resolve to make the promotion and defence of the rights of the Oredo child the cardinal objective of his legislative agenda.
Osaro Onaiwu who stated this while chatting with media men in Benin City say he has the arsenal and the ability to sustain the tempo of his clamour for the defence of the rights of the Oredo child.
The House of Representatives aspirant, who has been screened, cleared and certified fit to contest the primaries said "the future of Oredo is vested in its children and youths, as such, I will do everything possible withing the purview of my legislative and oversight duties to promote the Oredo child. "
He has at different fora repeatedly promised to devote a greater chunk of his legislative agenda to protect the rights of the Oredo child, while also ensuring a better future for them
The OREDO FIRST crusader similarly picked holes in the child rights law, saying it is obsolete and inadequate to protect today's child, adding a more contemporary child rights law that addresses the needs and concerns of the modern child is urgently needed.
Onaiwu Jnr contends further that "the plight of the Oredo child and those of his peers elsewhere is pathetic and worrisome, stating he's suffered several heartbreaks and loss of confidence in humanity each time he encounters out of school children hawking and doing other menial jobs during school hours. "
He submitted that one of the best ways of halting the ugly trend of child rights violations and abuse is legislation and went on to admonish parents and guardians to stop paying lip service to the well-being of their wards.
